abstract use of empirical competition models is one of approaches in integrated weed management strategies. in order to investigation of this approach in simulation of yield loss of bean (phaseolus vulgari. l.) caused by jimson weed (datura stramonium l.) interference, an experiment was conducted in national bean research station, in khomein, in 2007. the experiment design was randomized comple...

a new model based on a combination of the polymeric multigrain and multilayer models has been developed to predict the polymerization rate, particle growth, morphology, effective parameters on broadening of the molecular weight distribution, number and weight average of the molecular weight, isotacticity index and bulk density of polymer. mathematical correlations and the kinetics used in this ...

flood is one of the most calamitous natural disasters that causes extensive property and life damages across theworld. it however, could be a blessing due to its special natural water resources recharging value. by simulating themagnitude of probable floods considering the anthropogenic and natural effects and implementing contingency plans,their damages could be reduced. in this paper, the gen...

pink floyd was a british band whose work began in the late 60s. roger waters, the main contributor of the band, wrote almost all the lyrics and was also a main figure behind producing the motion picture of the album. he deliberately attacks western media in both the lyrics he has written for the band and his solo projects. the present study finds this tendency of assaulting the media deeply roo...

advanced technologies in molecular biology and modern experimental biophysics heavily rely not only on the knowledge of structure of essential proteins but also on their structural dynamics. the function of these bimolecular systems and the pathways along which the biological phenomena take place can be determined based on the knowledge of the molecular structure and behavior. as such, the simp...

this paper was aimed to report the 3d finite element analysis simulation of laser welding process of ti6al4v 1.7 mm sheets in butt joint in order to predict the temperature distribution, hardness, and weld geometry. the butt-joint welds were made using co2 laser with the maximum power of 2.2 kw in the continuous wave mode. a part of the experimental work was carried out to verify the weld geome...

in previous studies we first concentrated on utilizing crisp simulationto produce discrete event fuzzy systems simulations. then we extendedthis research to the simulation of continuous fuzzy systems models. in this paperwe continue our study of continuous fuzzy systems using crisp continuoussimulation. consider a crisp continuous system whose evolution depends ondifferential equations. such a ...

an efficient flood alarm system may significantly improve public safety and mitigate damages caused by inundation. flood forecasting is undoubtedly a challenging field of operational hydrology and a huge literature has been developed over the years. in this paper, we first define ordered ideal intuitionistic fuzzy sets and establish some results on them. then, we define similarity measures betw...

One of the great challenges in the processing of materials using Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) is the high forming forces required to produce large shear deformation in the material. Researchers show that the friction forces between the die and the sample constitute a great part of the total forming forces. Recently, ultrasonic vibrations are successfully implemented into the ECAP proce...
