this paper presents results analyses of specific potential blowout scenarios for subsea oilpipelines between the coast of mainland of iran and khark island in the persian gulf. the analyses have been carried out with the sintef oil spill contingency and response (oscar) 3-dimensional model system.some hypothetical three-day blowout scenarios with light and heavy iranian oil have been investigat...

The ethical implications of business continuity/disaster recovery planning, and technology is rarely a topic discussed within the academic or practitioner literature. However, ethical decisions permeate such business continuity and disaster recovery areas as data custody, privacy, and security issues involved in the control and possession of business continuity data. In this paper, a discussion...

the aim of this study was to analyze the stress response during 3 hours net confinement stress and recovery period of 22 hours in normal (std) and in 17α-hydroxylase deficient common carp (e5). fish were raised for 6 months and sampled at t0 (control, unstressed), 5 minutes, 20 minutes, 1 hour and 3 hours of exposure to net confinement, and after 1 hour, 4 hours, and 22 hours of recovery. at ev...

Cupric oxide nanostructures were synthesized via a simple reaction between copper nitrate and sodium hydroxide using a sonochemical-assisted method. The synthesized CuO was then characterized using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared, ultraviolet-visible and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Our studies show that the CuO na...

background: in patients with non-obstructive azoospermia (noa), vital spermatozoa from the tissue is obtained from testes by enzymatic treatment besides the mechanical treatment. objective: to increase the sperm recovery success of testicular sperm extraction (tese), with enzymatic digestion if no sperm is obtained from testis tissue by mechanical method. materials and methods: tissue samples w...

response surface methodology (rsm) is a statistical method useful in the modeling and analysis of problems in which the response variable receives the influence of several independent variables, in order to determine which are the conditions under which should operate these variables to optimize a corrugated box production process. the purpose of this research is to create response surface mode...
