boron nitride semiconducting zigzag swcnt, $b_{cb}$$n_{cn}$$c_{1-cb-cn}$, as a potential candidate for making nanoelectronic devices was examined. in contrast to the previous dft calculations, wherein just one boron and nitrogen doping configuration have been considered, here for the average over all possible configurations, density of states (dos) was calculated in terms of boron and nitrogen ...

Background and Aim: Rose Bengal is a water-soluble, anionic xanthin dye. It has been used as a safe compound for many years. But, anti-inflammatory effect of Rose Bengal has not been studied. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of Rose Bengal on nitric oxide production and its inflammatory induced response and inducible nitric oxide synthase expression in LPS-activated J774A.1 mac...

in civil engineering concrete is a material combined of hydraulic cement, sand, gravel and water. gravel and sand compose 60 to 70 percent of concrete. these aggregates support compression force of concrete. cement paste acts as glue to stick grain together. in bushehr factories producing aggregates do not operate according to astm standards, so that fineness modulus (fm) of the produced sands ...

Dust deposition occurs extensively in arid and semiarid regions of the world. Since dust particles are fine-sized, they have a high adsorption capacity and also high contamination potential. The objective of this study was to evaluate the temporal and spatial distribution of the rate of atmospheric dust deposition in different locations in Kerman urban area. Dust samples were collected monthly ...

this study attempted to explore if teaching english collocations through two different modes of awareness-raising and input flooding has any possible differential effect on immediate retention as well as retention in a delayed assessment. it also compared the possible differential effect of teaching english collocations implicitly and explicitly on actively using the items in writing. m...

flow in natural river bends is a complex and turbulent phenomenon which affects the scour and sedimentations and causes an irregular bed topography on the bed. for the reason, the flow hydralics and the parameters which affect the flow to be studied and understand. in this study the effect of bed and wall roughness using the software fluent discussed in a sharp 90-degree flume bend with 40.3cm ...
