This paper emphasizes on the application of genetic algorithm (GA) to optimize the parameters of the TMD for achieving the best results in the reduction of the building response under earthquake excitations. The Integral of the Time multiplied Absolute value of the Error (ITAE) based on relative displacement of all floors in the building is taken as a performance index of the optimization crite...

Background: the appropriate organizational climate and subsequent proper performance are goals that challenge hospital managers to achieve successful outcomes. A positive working motivates enhances nurses' performance. Objectives: There was identify relationship between perceived Methods: This is a cross-sectional descriptive study performed on nurses in private hospitals Rasht, Iran. The data ...

Background and Objective: Height measurement is an important part of nutritional assessmentespecially in children. However, in such cases as hospitalized or certain kinds of malformations ordisabilities, height cannot be measured accurately. We aimed to determine appropriate height predictors inIranian healthy children for further use in disabled and/or hospitalized children. Materi...

Isolated renal hydatid disease is a rare endemic infestation caused by larval form of Echinococcus granulosus. Hydatiduria is an uncommon presentation of renal hydatid disease. In 2012 a 34-year-old female referred to Razi Hospital, Rasht, Iran with complaints of right flank pain and grape-like material in urine. Diagnosis was made by ultrasonography and CT scan. The patient was treated surgica...

Monte Carlo Algorithms for Solving Fredholm Integral Equations and Fredholm Differential Integral Equations Behrouz Fathi Vajargah and Mojtaba Moradi Department of Mathematics Guilan University, Rasht, Iran [email protected], [email protected] Abstract In this paper we establish a new algorithm for solving non linear differential integral equations based on Monte Carlo methods. For obta...

Background: Oral lesions can affect people’s quality of life by interfering with chewing, swallowing, and speech. These may originate from epithelial or mesenchymal tissues. Malignant oral be life-threatening. Epidemiological data in Iran is limited. Objective: This study aims to investigate the frequency Rasht, Iran. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, histopathologic reported Razi laborat...

In recent years, tuned mass damper (TMD) control systems for civil engineering structures have attracted considerable attention. This paper emphasizes on the application of particle swarm application (PSO) to design and optimize the parameters of the TMD control scheme for achieving the best results in the reduction of the building response under earthquake excitations. The Integral of the Time...

Height measurement is an important part of nutritional assessment especially in children. However, in such cases as hospitalized or certain kinds of malformations or disabilities, height cannot be measured accurately. We aimed to determine appropriate height predictors in Iranian healthy children for further use in disabled and/or hospitalized children. A total of 730 apparently healthy childre...
