In this paper, the effect of the crack on dynamic behavior of cracked micro-beam in the presence of DC and AC loads are investigated. By applying the residual axial stress and fringing field stress, a nonlinear analytical model of cracked micro-beam is presented and crack is modeled by a massless rotational spring. The governing equation of the system is solved using Galerkin procedure and shoo...

most theories in social sciences have aspects of causality, but understanding the causes of social phenomena is not possible through statistical correlation tests. to overcome this problem, fuzzy qualitative comparative analysis was developed to identify the cause of social phenomena. having qualitative roots, this method tests the necessary and sufficient causes for the emergence of a social p...

objective(s) the main objective of this study was to investigate the status of chromosome stability in 3 human-mouse hybridoma cell lines over a period of time in various passages. materials and methods metaphase spreads from 3 human-mouse cell lines (hf2x653, spmo-4 and f3b6) that had been cultured in 4 successive passages, from 1 to 4 weeks, were prepared and analyzed. metaphase chromosomes s...

purpose ankle sprain is one of the most common injuries among athletes and instability and injury to this joint is responsible for long time loss of physical and recreational activity. also, it can impose high costs to sport teams. prevention of this injury is an important concern of practice and rehabilitation. one way of reducing the possibility of ankle joint injury is using an ankle orthosi...

the cadaver spine motion segment behavior under torsional load was evaluated with the disc intact, with partial anterior discectomy and with spacer insertion. the results of this study explain how anterior lumbar discectomy and interbody fusion (alif) affects the torsional stability of the motion segment. the pseudarthrosis rate of the anterior lumbar discectomy and interbody fusion (alif) is k...

1. introduction increasing of extreme events such as flood, hailstorm, drought, thermal waves, dust storm and other dangerous climatological events, especially in local scale, could be the result of the climatic change over the globe. the characteristics and impacts of severe weather are function of place and time of occurrence. severe weathers are usually accompanied by strong winds and heavy ...

surge is one of the two destructive factors in compressors. surge is the stream instability phenomenon in compressor that imposes severe damages to the compressors. nowadays, suppressingsurge phenomenon is one of the most important issues in oil and gas industries, especially when flow reduction or gas reflux is considered. according to moore-greitzer compressor model, this paper designs an act...

Inorganic arsenicals are worldwide environmental contaminants that affect molecular characteristics in biological systems and lead to genomic and epigenomic instability as well as epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT). In this study, we aimed to investigate whether low levels of sodium arsenite (iAsIII) can influence EMT and genomic instability through microsatellite analysis. We have also de...
