this study estimates the residential property prices in tehran using hedonic price functions and spatial econometrics. the newly employed method is extending the analysis to the neighbourhood level (361 sectors) using the city's planning and gis tools. the results show that the spatial econometric model has higher identification than the simple econometric model. the distance between the c...

With the expanding demand on application of magnesium alloys in automotive and aerospace industries, robust methods in fatigue characterization of commercially available magnesium alloys with high specific strength is anticipated. In this paper, rotating bending load controlled tests has been studied on specimens machined from an extrusion piece of AZ31B. Due to asymmetric and anisotropic behav...

objectives: herbal medicine is known as a valid alternative treatment. salvia reuterana, which has been used in the iranian traditional medicine, is mostly distributed in the central highlands of iran. salvia reuterana is a medicinal herb with various therapeutic usages. the aim of the present review is to take account of pharmacological properties of salvia reuterana. materials and methods: th...

The object of this paper is to indicate the immediate usefulness of Caratheodory's theory of the conformal mapping of variable regions in the study of boundary behavior of a fixed but arbitrary conformal map. We study especially the mapping of an infinite strip and its behavior at infinity. Studies of an infinite strip by other methods have previously been made, especially by Ahlfors, Ferrand, ...

Transient natural convection is numerically investigated in an enclosure using variable thermal conductivity, viscosity, and the thermal expansion coefficient of Al2O3-water nanofluid. The study has been conducted for a wide range of Rayleigh numbers (103≤ Ra ≤ 106), concentrations of nanoparticles (0% ≤ ϕ ≤ 7%), the enclosure aspect ratio (AR =1), and temperature differences between the cold a...

We give a new and short proof of the Mallows-Sloane upper bound for self-dual codes. We formulate a version of Greene’s theorem for normalized weight enumerators. We relate normalized rank-generating polynomials to two-variable zeta functions. And we show that a selfdual code has the Clifford property, but that the same property does not hold in general for formally self-dual codes.
