drought causes significant reductions in crop productivity in many parts of the world, including iran. identifying genotypes tolerant to drought stress is therefore one of the foremost goals of crop breeding programs. this study investigated the effect of terminal drought stress on yield and yield components of new winter rapeseed lines, and identified new winter rapeseed lines tolerant to term...

railway service terminals are the places of a railway network usually equipped with costly technology based on highly complicated technological procedures demanding a high degree of coordination and control skills. design of these systems and the organization of their operation should facilitate reaching to the required capacity together with high quality of service processes as well as minimal...

Retinal terminal profiles in the goldfish optic tectum were identified electron microscopically after (1) labeling with horseradish peroxidase and (2) in the early stages of degeneration in short-term eye enucleates. All labeled terminals shared certain common morphological characteristics which were identical to those of a population of terminals in normal tecta. Terminals of this type disappe...

Due to the continuously increasing container trade, many terminals are presently operating at or close to capacity. An efficient terminal is one that facilitates the quick transshipment of containers to and from ships. In this sake, this paper addresses the ship assignments problem at a maritime container terminal, where ships are normally assigned to specific quay cranes until the work is fini...

background & aim : the causes of increased rate of cesarean section (c-section) are not completely known. the repeated c-sections are frequently reported in studies conducted in iran. this study aimed to determine the frequency of, and indications for the first time csection (fcs) in zanjan, iran in 2012-2013. methods & materials : a cross-sectional study was conducted and systematic random sam...

For a country with over 200 million people and severe infrastructural deficit, the reality is that Nigeria has no wherewithal to meet demand for fixing its transport alone, without external financing technical assistance. With rising constraint on public resources fiscal space, it obvious government alone cannot provide necessary address deficit in like Nigeria. Hence, importance of China’s int...

In this paper, a new numerical method is presented for solving the optimal control problems of Bang-Bang type with free or fixed terminal time. The method is based on Bezier polynomials which are presented in any interval as $[t_0,t_f]$. The problems are reduced to a constrained problems which can be solved by using Lagrangian method. The constraints of these problems are terminal state and con...

intestinal lipomatosis also known as lipohyperplasia is a rare disease. diffuse infiltration of the fatty tissue mainly in the submucousal layer is characteristic. it is usually asymptomatic and found incidentally. we report a case of lipomatosis in the terminal ileum and ileocecal valve. multidetector computed tomography (mdct) with contrast enhancement showed fatty infiltration of the termina...
