In recent years, impedance measurement method by piezoelectric (PZT) wafer activesensor (PWAS) has been widely adopted for non-destructive evaluation (NDE). In this method, theelectrical impedance of a bonded PWAS is used to detect a structural defect. The electro-mechanicalcoupling of PZT materials constructs the original principle of this method. Accordingly, the electricalimpedance of PWAS c...

The world has moved from fossil fuels to renewable energy resources due adverse environmental impacts, limited sources, and economic issues. It is not necessary that sources have always led many advantages but drawbacks like weather dependency, unreliability, storage problems, upfront costs. This study focuses on one of the major types RES solar PV systems. data used specification modules at Su...

    In 2010, the World Bank categorized countries in per capita gross domestic product in terms of purchasing power parity (at constant 1990 prices) in three categories: low, middle (lower and upper) and high income. If a country caught at least 28 years in lower middle income level and at least 14 years caught in upper middle-income level, then they are trapped in lower middle and upper middle...

The compressibility factor of nonassociated chain molecules composed of hard convex core Yukawa segments was derived with SAFT-VR and an extension of the Barker-Henderson perturbation theory for convex bodies. The temperature-dependent chain and dispersion compressibility factors were derived using the Yukawa potential. The effects of temperature, packing fraction, and segment number on the com...

reliability analysis of rock slope stability has received considerable attention in the literature. it has been used as an effective tool to evaluate uncertainty so prevalent in variables. in this research the application of the jointly distributed random variables method for probabilistic analysis and reliability assessment of rock slope stability with plane sliding is investigated. in a recen...

in this research work with the aid of tagouchi experimental design and rawing of interaction curves with minitab software, the best rotor speed and dump temperature of mixing for physico-mechanical and rheological properties of the rubber compound with three mixing steps was obtained. moreover by plotting the mean curves in excel worksheet, the dependency of properties on rotor speed, dump temp...

abstract aim and background: evidences show that both negative and positive affects play role in tendency to use substances, giving this issue, the current study was conducted in other to investigate relationships between distress tolerance, negative and positive urgency with severity of dependence and craving in people with substance dependency. methods and materials: the method of this resear...
