seismic ground motion is profoundly affected by geometrical and mechanical properties of soil deposits overlaying bedrock. local seismic ground response of saturated soil deposits was studied in literature by applying the effects of soil stress state and index properties on the strain-dependent normalized shear modulus reduction, g/g0, and damping ratio, d, curves in an equivalent linear analys...

In the current study the plasma metabolites of silvery-black porgy (Sparidentex hasta) juveniles fed with different lipids sources were analyzed in order to bio-monitoring fish health condition. In this regard, an eight-week feeding trial was conducted using seven isonitrogenous (50%) and isolipidic (20%) experimental diets : FO, CO (canola oil), SO (sunflower oil), T (tallow), FC (fish oil + c...

Poly (propylene fumarate) (PPF), a linear unsaturated polyester consisting of alternating propylene glycol and fumaric acid units, can be cured in vivo to fill the skeletal defects with minimal surgical intervention. Many different methods have been reported for synthesizing PPF, but none of them gives a clear method. The present paper introduces two new methods in PPF synthesis: Modified reflu...

The atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP)-based continuous assembly of polymers (CAP) is a promising approach for fabricating thin film composite (TFC) membranes high flux. Here, we report the preparation CO2-selective TFC mixed matrix (MMMs) by incorporating different amounts [Cu24(m-bdc)24(EG)3(DMF)12] (EG3-MOP) nanocages (e.g., 2.5, 5, and 10 wt%) as CO2-philic fillers in poly(poly(eth...

in this study, both the presence and concentration of some unsaturated compounds in hexane extracts of different parts of anthemis talyschensis showing absorption at wavelength 280-450 nm were surveyed, with the view of possibly using extracts of this plant in new formulations of sunscreen creams. the hexane extracts of flower, leaf and stem of a. talyschensis , collected from northwest iran, w...

paste of big head carp fish was prepared based on three formulas and was selected base on organoleptic properties test results. the product was then divided into three portions of: sample 1 (control), sample 2 (containing 0.01% butylated hydroxy anisole bha antioxidant) and sample 3 (containing 0.02% antioxidant bha). to determine the shelf life, the samples were frozen and kept in cold storage...

solute transport in unsaturated porous media can be viewed as a coupled phenomenon with waterand heat transport, together with mechanical behaviour of media. in this paper, solute transport is formulatedmathematically considering heat and water flow in deformable porous media. advection, dispersion anddiffusion of chemical species in the liquid phase are considered. convection and conduction fo...

Fungal cultures were isolated from soil samples collected from the Western Ghats regions of Kerala. Primary screening of isolated strains were done by Sudan black staining method and 15 lipid producing cultures were isolated. The fatty acid profiling of the positive strains were analyzed for docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) production. Selected oleaginous cultures were grown in submerged culture cond...
