Biomass derived fuels are preferred as alternative fuels for IC engine due to its abundant availability and renewable nature. In the present work, the complete replacement of diesel fuel with bio-fuels is studied, where the bio-fuels, namely, methyl ester of palm kernel oil and eucalyptus oil were chosen and used as fuel in the form of blends. Various proportions of palm kernel oil and eucalypt...

three hundred twin births from a hospital in tehran, iran have been analyzed for seasonal variation at birth and physical measurements. the results show that the highest twinning rates for mm (5.61), ff (7.73) and mf (5.36) were seen in april, january and september, respectively. the four physical measurements at birth showed non-significant differences among the male and female twins, but mm a...

a experiment was lay out in order to evaluate the effects  of different biofertilizers on yield and yield components of maize at the lorestan provience, iran. the experiment was a factorial design with three replications. treatments were three nitrogen biofrtilizers (nitrokara (n1), o4 (n2), o6 (n3) and control (n4)) and three phosphate biofrtilizers (phosphate barvar2 (p1), biozarr (p2), mc1+p...

studies show that any complications including hemorrhage, lack of blood supply, lack of oxygen supply, and death of cells in a tissue, will have a clear effect on electrical properties of that tissue. thus, by measuring impedance of a set of tissues, potential problems of the damaged tissue may be found. since electrical impedance is closely related to the measuring frequency, obviously, every ...

introduction: birth weight is one of the important sanitary indices in evaluating the prenatal care all over the world. the purpose of this research was to determine the relationship between the bio-environmental characteristics of mothers with infant’s birth weight. materials and methods: in corrolation study, first, all newborn babies in hospitals and maternity centers khuzestan between farwa...

BACKGROUND On-line monitoring of chemical/physical signals during haemodialysis (HD) and bio-feedback represents the first step towards a 'physiological' HD system incorporating adaptive and logic controls in order to achieve pre-set treatment targets. METHODS Discussions took place to achieve a consensus on key points relating to on-line monitoring and bio-feedback, focusing on the clinical ...

in order to study the effects of integrated application of bio-fertilizer and chemical fertilizers on yield and yield components of corn, an experiment was conducted in 2008 in dezful city, (khoozestan province) in a factorial arrangement based on complete randomized block design with four replications. treatments were integrated application of biological and chemical fertilizers in four levels...

Bridging contemporary techniques in bio-inspired control affords a unique perspective into human locomotion where the interplay between sagittal and coronal dynamics is understood and exploited to simplify control design. Functional Routhian reduction is particularly useful on bipeds as it decouples these dynamics, allowing for control design on a sagittallyrestricted model while providing coro...

Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 uptakes iron using a reductive mechanism, similar to that exhibited by many other microalgae. Various bio-electrochemical technologies have made use of this reductive cellular capacity, but there is still a lack of fundamental understanding of cellular reduction rates under different conditions. This study used electrochemical techniques to further investigate the red...
