the present study set out (a) to examine the categories of pedagogical knowledge related to the act of teaching of novice and experienced teachers as gleaned from their verbal report of what they were thinking about while teaching and (b) to compare the categories of pedagogical knowledge of novice and experienced teachers. the aim of comparing these two groups of teachers was to see whether di...

Film Cooling Adiabatic Effectiveness on a Specific Profile of a Gas Turbine blade that Using Holes with 25 and 45 Degree Combined Angles to the Flow Direction and Radial Along the Attack Edge as well as 25 Degree Angles to the Flow Direction and Surface Area of the Attack Edge Area , Under two different blowing ratios, using the Reynolds stress approach and the SST turbulence model, have been i...

the neogene intrusion masses in the noudeh-enghelab area located to the north of sabzevar ophiolite have cut the late cretaceous ophiolitic rocks, sedimentary- volcanic and eocene volcanic rocks and have been covered by pliocene and quaternary deposits. the margin is of lava with basalt, phyric andesite-basalt and andesite and the central parts (dome shaped) composed of phyric andesite-trachyan...

writing an academic article requires the researchers to provide support for their works by learning how to cite the works of others. various studies regarding the analysis of citation in m.a theses have been done, while little work has been done on comparison of citations among elt scopus journal articles, and so the dearth of research in this area demands for further investigation into citatio...

among the low–dimensional allotropes of carbon, nanotubes and graphene have attracted very much attention from nano–science and nanotechnology specialists. they have been proposed as building blocks in nanometer device engineering. however, these structures are not defect–free. in this thesis, we focused on defective carbon nanotubes and graphene, and studied the effect of couple of very common...

Rutile-phase titanium dioxide nanorod arrays were prepared by the hydrothermal method. Then, anatase-phase nanoleaves were successfully synthesized on the nanorod arrays via mild aqueous chemistry. Nanorod arrays scanning electron microscopy revealed that the thin film is uniform and crack free and the average diameter and height of the nanorods are 90 nm and 2 µm, respectively. Furthermo...
