Background and purpose: Educational programs are of great importance to enhance geriatrics nutritional knowledge and improve their food consumption pattern. The stage of change model (Transtheoretical model) is one of the methods to identify and adjust dietary pattern. This study was conducted to determine the effects of Transtheoretical educational model on nutritional knowledge of geriatrics ...

چکیده      طی سال های اخیر، مسئله انتخاب تأمین کننده به یکی از مهم ترین ملاحظات در برقراری یک سیستم زنجیره تأمین اثربخش تبدیل شده است. بسیاری از عوامل کیفی و کمی، مانند کیفیت، قیمت، انعطاف پذیری و عملکرد تحویل، باید در تعیین تأمین کننده مناسب مورد توجه قرار گیرند؛ بنابراین انتخاب تأمین کننده یک مسئله تصمیم گیری چندشاخصه است. مدل ها و روش های متعددی برای مقابله با این مسئله توسعه یافته است. در ا...

The Nearest Individual Sampling Method is one of the distance sampling methods for estimating density, canopy cover and height of forest stands. Some distance sampling methods have more than one density estimator that may be skewed to the spatial pattern. Unless the stands of the trees under study have a random spatial pattern. Therefore, the purpose of this study was evaluating the effect of s...

The nearest individual method (NIM), Nearest neighbor method (NNM) and compound method (CM) are distance sampling methods that are being applied to measure the plant density (numbers of individuals per unit area). Density is one of the essential structural characteristics in forest stands and useful to understand the dynamics of the forest. The present study aimed to find the most adaptable dis...

Natural disasters influence human lives in different ways. They may have severe, obvious, or hidden consequences. Therefore, the present study aimed at examining the environmental health condition of the cities affected by 2017 earthquake in Kermanshah Pr...

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of deficit irrigation on seed yield and its components of sunflower hybrids, and also identify tolerant hybrids. Twelve sunflower hybrids; Farrokh, Shams, Ghasem, Barzegar, G5 ×43, G6×43, Hysun25, Hysun36, Azargol, Sumbro, Euroflor and Sirena were evaluated under three irrigation treatments; normal irrigation (60 mm), mild drought stress (1...

Breeding and production of drought tolerant cultivars for arid and semi-arid area is very important. The present experiment was carried out to evaluate the effects of drought stress on seed yield and yield components of oilseed rape as well as identification of high yielding and drought stress tolerant genotypes. Eighteen new winter oilseed rape lines and commercial cultivars were evaluated und...

In Islamic cities, mosques have a distinct place. The mosque has long been considered as an essential element of human society in many ways. This study aims to introduce some of the most successful attitudes of spatial communication in today’s mosque architecture scale by examining the architecture of traditional mosques. In space syntax approach, using the three indices of “connectivity”, “int...
