two different propagation procedures including aeroponics and soil systems were compared for the minitubers production in potato. the minitubers were evaluated for several quality characters. the plant materials were from three cultivars, agria, marfona and savalan. the plantlets were grown in aeroponics and soil production systems at a plant density of 100 plants per m-2 and stem length, root ...

Orifice-restricted hydrostatic thrust bearings are broadly employed in ultra-precision machine tools, aerospace industries, and so forth. The orifice length–diameter ratio (OLDR) is one of the significant geometrical parameters orifice-restricted bearing, which directly affects performance bearing. To accurately guide design effect OLDR on bearing needs to be thoroughly scientifically investiga...

Introduction: Post and core has been considered for endodontically treated tooth, especially in cases with severe damage crowns. Recently fiber reinforced composite posts (FRC post) have been used in the treatment of endodontically treated teeth. Because the length and diameter of posts are effective in stress distribution, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of length and diame...

A two fluid model (TFM) was used to study gas-solid heat transfer in a riser with different inclination angles. A two dimensional pipe with 5.8 cm internal diameter and 5 meter length was chosen.  Effect of bed angle and solid particles feed rate were studied on the heat transfer behavior of gas and solid particles. Obtained results from simulation are compared with the experimental data in the...

Dendrocalamus brandisii is an edible bamboo species found in Southwest China and South Asia. However, there is limited information about the anatomical and chemical information of its culms for its utilization and processing. In this paper, the anatomical and chemical properties of different age culms were determined. There are three vascular bundle types found in its culms. The radial length-t...

in order to investigate the effect of root pruning in morphological and physiological characteristics of juniperus excelsa seedlings an experiment was carried out on transplanted one year-old seedlings. treatments included root pruning intensities (1-slight pruning (2-moderate pruning and 3- control (no root pruning)) .experiment design was completely randomized design. each treatment included ...
