in this paper, we have estimated the memory of thetehran stock exchange indices. the estimation of fractional differencing parameter is carried out by various methods such as mle, nls, hurst exponent, gph, lo, whittle and wavelet. the estimation results of whittle, wavelet, hurst, and lo methods allow us to conclude that the returns on stock indices (tepix, tedpix, tedix, financial index and in...

The most popular method of measuring structural budget balances is the “gaps plus elasticities” approach. In this paper, it is argued that the idiosyncratic features of an economy need to be accounted for properly when seeking to achieve good estimates of structural budget balances using this method. The first step in this approach involves measuring the economy’s potential output in order to i...

BACKGROUND Mechanical torque limiting devices (MTLDs) are necessary tools to control a peak torque and achieving target values of screw component of dental implants. Due to probable effect of autoclaving and number of use on the accuracy of these devices, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of sterilization and number of use on the accuracy of friction-style mechanical torque limiting devic...

this study was carried out to investigate the effect of selection on the reduction of fat-tail size in lori-bakhtiari lambs. the study lasted for five years at the development and breeding center of lori-bakhtiari sheep station. estimation of fat-tail weight, using external fat-tail dimensions was obtained from regression procedure at 6 month age. soft tissue depth at the point 12 cm from the m...
