In this paper, we will use a modified  variational iteration method (MVIM) for solving an inverse heat conduction problem (IHCP). The approximation of the temperature and the heat flux at  are considered. This method is based on the use of Lagrange multipliers for the identification of optimal values of parameters in a functional in Euclidian space. Applying this technique, a rapid convergent s...

chromagar candida is a new chromogenic culture medium that is used for the isolation and direct identification of some of the most clinically important yeast pathogens on the basis of colony colour. the aim of the study was to isolate and identify candida species from the oral cavity with chromagar candida. samples (158) from 68 orthodontic patients wearing upper removable orthodontic appliance...

rural and nature tourism has experienced high growth over the past 20 years. one of the primary challenges facing rural tourism management is to establish a profitable and environmentally sustainable industry. moreover, sustainable tourism is a complex concept and it requires that nature and tourism activity should be studied from an integrated point of view. in this paper, we analyze how the e...

Background and Objectives: Identification of surgical instruments in laparoscopic video images has several biomedical applications. While several methods have been proposed for accurate detection of surgical instruments, the accuracy of these methods is still challenged high complexity of the laparoscopic video images. This paper introduces a Surgical Instrument Detection Framework (SIDF) for a...

talent finding in sports can not only lead to winning teams but also ensure individuals continue to participate, improve their talents, and take preventive measures against injuries. athletic talent often develops as the result of morphological, physiological, or psychological characteristics. many of these characteristics are inherited, and genetics have important implications for talent. tale...

polyoma virus nephropathy occurs in 3% to 4% of renal transplant recipients, causing graft loss in 50% of cases. the objective of the present study was to explore the effects of age, sex, post-transplantation period and plasma creatinine levels on the polyoma virus infection in kidney transplanted patients. urine samples were collected from 362 patients, centrifuged and microscopic slides prepa...

genotyping for five short tandem repeat (str) loci humvwa, humfes, humtpo, humth01 and d3s1359 was done in 220 unrelated individuals from the population of isfahan province of ir iran. the loci were genotyped using the polymerase chain reaction (pcr) followed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (page) and silver staining. the data demonstrated that the str markers were all found informative i...

Radio frequency identification (RFID) is an automatic identification technology making its way to supply chains in Retail, Pharmaceutical, and other industries. RFID extends the reach of supply chain information systems in such a way that it will soon be possible and economically feasible to tag valuable physical objects and then to track and trace them, enabling many novel and useful applicati...
