Identifying loss mechanisms and predicting device performance are key goals of device and process characterization. Photoconductance measurements allow the extraction of the Implied Voc and Suns Voc, which together can be used for process monitoring, for loss analysis and to identify the potential device performance in the absence of unwanted defects. In this paper, we measure the Implied Voc a...

introduction: machine vision, which uses image processing techniques, is a branch of artificial intelligence that simulates human vision. these systems can be used for quality control, sorting and grading of agricultural products. unlike engineering materials, agricultural fruits are living tissues that continue living even after they are harvested from trees or bushes. therefore, the post-harv...

A numerical approach called “SIMPLER” is used to investigate the  flow and heat transfer characteristics in a square driven cavity. The two-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations were solved and the results are depicted as contour plots of stream function, vorticity, and total pressure for Reynolds numbers from 1 to 10000. At the higher values of Reynolds number, an inviscid core re...

This paper presents a practical and efficient method to solve large-scale nonlinear equations. The global convergence of this new trust region algorithm is verified. The algorithm is then used to solve the nonlinear equations arising in an Expanded Lagrangian Function (ELF). Numerical results for the implementation of some large-scale problems indicate that the algorithm is efficient for these ...

the present study illustrates the long-term changes in selected socioeconomic variables (population,industrial activities, settlement dispersion, and land-use) together with climate aridity trends in thriasio, the larger industrial area of greece located twenty kilometers far from athens. this region, originally devoted to agriculture, experienced fast industrial and economic development during...

the leopard (panthera pardus) as an adaptable felid widely distributed in varied ecosystems of iran. the golestan natural park is one of the main habitats of leopard in the country. it has divers diet and preying various types of preys such as wild ungulate and livestock. the prey remains’ samples of leopard were collected and preserved using ethanol 96% and whole genomic dna was extracted. the...

lactoferrin (lf) is a bioactive protein present in all external secretions such as milk that plays important role in the innate host defense. therefore, the lf has a major role in bovine mammary gland defense during mastitis. in this study, 5’-flanking region of bovine lf gene containing three single nucleotide polymorphisms (snps) at positions −602 (t/g), −600 (a/g) and -586 (t/c) were screene...
