laparoscopy or minimally-invasive surgery is a surgical technique in which the surgical operations are performed via a few small incisions. this kind of surgery has fewer complications over open surgery. finding methods for shortening the time of laparoscopic surgeries can improve operating room efficiency. an approach to shortening the time of laparoscopic surgeries is identifying the interrup...

The toxicity and corrosion potential of hydrogen sulfide in raw biogas underlines the need for biogas purification. Several techniques available for removal of hydrogen sulfide from biogas are out of the reach for common end users due to lack of knowledge, higher running costs, and insufficient operational skills. The present experimental study aims to propagate hydrogen sulfide removal techniq...

abstract a field experiment was conducted at plant pest and disease research institute in karaj,iran in 2005-2006 to determine the effect of low herbicide dose of clodinafop-propargyl on percentage of wild oat control, yield and economic return of wheat. the experiment included 2 wheat varieties (rooshan and niknejad (less and more competitiveness cultivar, respectively, 4 wild oat densities (0...

Balanced acceptance sampling is a relatively new sampling scheme that has potential to improve the efficiency of spatial studies. There are two drawbacks of the design, it can have low entropy and some of the unbiased estimates can not be calculated. In this paper, such shortcomings have been addressed by integrating simple random sampling with balanced acceptance sampling. In a simulation stud...

The goal of this research is the derivation of method for evaluation of efficiency improvement potential for district heating systems with focus on variable speed centrifugal pump. The effectiveness of the usage of the proportional pressure control is compared with the constant pressure control. This is why, energy calculation analyses have been realized for variable speed centrifugal pumps, an...
