The present research was conducted in a stone quarry of marble located in northeast of Iran. Time weighted average of total dust, respirable dust, and crystalline silica (alpha-quartz) concentration in workers' breathing zone were monitored by using both gravimetric and XRD methods. The results showed that the employees working in hammer drill process had the highest exposure to the total and r...

In this work, molecular dynamics simulations are performed to investigate the influence of material properties on the nanometric cutting of single crystal copper and aluminum with a diamond cutting tool. The atomic interactions in the two metallic materials are modeled by two sets of embedded atom method (EAM) potential parameters. Simulation results show that although the plastic deformation o...

the main objective of this investigation was to achieve a clear pattern of solid waste collection and disposal in selected hospital and health care establishments in certain cities of tehran province. this study was done in more than 82 percent of all hospitals with 3017 beds during the year 1996. solid waste produced per bed was evaluated to be 2.87 kg per day which was 8670 kg per day, for al...

The present work was directed toward the successful ability of electerocoagulation to remove color from synthetic and simulated textile effluent by aluminum/iron electrodes. Two representative reactive dyes were selected for the synthetic dye system, a black dye alone and mixed dye (black, blue, red, 1:1:1 vol/vol). Several important operating parameters such as electrode material, initial pH(3...

peppermint (mentha piperita l.) from lamiaceae family is one of the most important medicinal plants, used in food, sanitary and cosmetic industries. a field experiment was carried out in ferdowsi university of mashhad in 2010-2011 to evaluate the effects of three irrigation levels (100, 80 and 60 percent of water requirements calculated by evaporation pan class a) and two mulch types (black pla...

one of the disadvantages of conventional milling tools is to produce a large amount of heat in cutting zone and so making the tool warmer. as a result, the tool would be worn and its life time would be reduced. therefore, in long time machining, it is essential to change inserts and tools, continiously. a milling tool with self rotary cutting inserts was designed and manufactured that enables i...
