In aquaculture, the process of hybridization is used to produce animals that have better growth rates, meat quality, and higher resistance and tolerance to environmental variations than their parental species. The identification of a hybrid fish may require a DNA-based technology that is an expensive process. In this study, the sagittal otolith shape of hatchery-reared brook trout (Salvelinus f...

The main purpose of this research is portfolio optimization in Tehran securities exchange using the black hole algorithm and the Gravitational Research algorithm. We also propose an algorithm named Hybrid Algorithm which combines the two algorithms above to cover the weaknesses of these two algorithms. Finally we compare the results with the Markowitz model and choose the optimal algorithm.<br ...

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is known to be the world-leading cereal grain and the most important food in the world of agriculture.  Wheat offers a great wealth of material for genetic studies due to its wide ecological distribution and host of variation for various morphological and physiological characters.  To evaluate the genetic control of physical traits of grain in two crosses of winter ...

producing hybrid lettuce is prevented by flower structure and usually lead to selfing. based on it, this experiment was carried out to evaluate the performance of different physical and chemical emasculation methods for producing lettuce hybrid seed. a numbers of cultivars with dominant and recessive traits were used as male and female parents, respectively. in the first experiment, physical em...

In this paper,we investigate the pricing and return policy issueof one-echelon green supply chain, contain a manufacture who produces two type of products: green and non-green products. These products have a same functional but in selling price and environmentally issues have different effects. Also we consider return policy for both products that can stimulate the customer valuation. We develo...

this paper presents, a hybrid method, low-resolution and high-resolution, for persian page segmentation. in the low-resolution page segmentation, a pyramidal image structure is constructed for multiscale analysis and segments document image to a set of regions. by high-resolution page segmentation, by connected components analysis, each region is segmented to homogeneous regions and identifying...

Conversion of fossil fuels to electrical power is the most popular method of electrical power generation. Due to the depletion of fossil fuels and the increase in air pollution, the necessity of using high efficiency power generation systems is increasing. High temperature fuel cells, such as solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) and molten carbonate fuel cells (MCFC), have high efficiency. According t...

In this work, we report a new well dispersed molybdenum complex attached through the mediation of aminopropylsilyl groups on the surface of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). The prepared hybrid nanomaterial was characterized with different physicochemical methods such as Fourier transform infrared and atomic absorption spectroscopies, transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-...

In this paper, an advanced analysis of a novel hybrid compression-absorption refrigeration system (HCARS) for natural gas dew point control unit in a gas refinery is presented. This unit separates the heavy hydrocarbon molecules in the natural gas, which is traditionally carried out by natural gas cooling in a compression refrigeration cycle (CRS). The power input required for the refrigeration...

Action Systems is a predicate transformer based formalism for the devel opment of reactive and distributed systems by re nement Lately Action Systems was extended with a di erential action that models continuous be haviour Such action systems capture hybrid systems where a discrete con troller interacts with some continuously evolving environment Recently we investigated a class of Action Syste...
