Optimal Shape of Pine for

Shape-Measure Method for Solving Elliptic Optimal Shape Problems (Fixed Control Case)

Determining optimal value of the shape parameter $c$ in RBF for unequal distances topographical points by Cross-Validation algorithm

Several radial basis function based methods contain a free shape parameter which has  a crucial role in the accuracy of the methods. Performance evaluation of this parameter in different  functions with various data has always been a topic of study. In the present paper, we consider studying the methods which determine an optimal value for the shape parameter in interpolations of radial basis  ...

Removal of C.I. Acid red 1 (AR1) dye pollutant from contaminated waters by adsorption method using sunflower seed shells and pine cone as agro waste materials

Dyes are widely used in various industries, since theirdirect discharge to nature can cause many biological and environmental problems. Some of these dyes are toxic, carcinogenic and can cause skin and eye irritation. There are various dye removal techniques, but Adsorption found to be very effective and cheap method among the all available dye removal methods. The purpose of this study was to ...

Numerical Investigation of Natural Convection of Pine, Olive, and Orange Leaves

Abstract—Heat transfer of leaves is a crucial factor in optimal operation of metabolic functions in plants. In order to quantify this phenomenon in different leaves and investigate the influence of leaf shape on heat transfer, natural convection for pine, orange and olive leaves was simulated as representatives of different groups of leaf shapes. CFD techniques were used in this simulation with...

COMPARISON OF EPICUTICULAR WAX ON NEEDLES AND STEMS OF Pinus eldarica WITH ITS TWO NATURALLY GENERATED FORMS

Plant cuticles are covered by epicuticular waxes with considerable ultrastructural and chemical diversity and have great systematic significance. Pinus elderica is a rare pine found naturally only in desert environment southeast of Tbilisi (Georgia). This tree have been probably introduced to Iran about 800 years ago and gradually altered in both shape and size in Nashtifan-Khaf, and changed in...
