there is a challenging debate on the effect of premature luteinization on the clinical outcome of ‘controlled ovarian hyperstimulation' (coh) using long ‘gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist' (gnrha) cycles. premature luteinization is defined as late follicular progesterone/estradiol ratio more than 1 on the day of human chorionic gonadotropin (hcg) administration. we carried out a retrospect...

from the early 1950s, estimating the autocorrelations of polynomials with coefficients on the unit circle has found applications in ising spin systems and in surface acoustic wave designs. in this paper, a technique is introduced that not only estimates the autocorrelations, but for some special types of such polynomials, it locates the frequencies at which maximum autocorrelation occurs.

in order to investigate the flexural behaviors of rc beams after freeze-thaw cycles, compressive strength test of concrete cubes after 0, 50, 100, 125 freeze-thaw cycles were made, and static flexural experiment of 48 rc beams after 0, 50, 100, 125 freeze-thaw cycles were made. the relationships of relative compressive strength, mass loss rate, relative dynamic elastic modulus and numbers of fr...

iran’s vast common natural gas resources and the necessity to extract and export it as liquefied natural gas (lng) to distances more than 3000km opens a lucrative field for researchers to optimize lng cycles. in this article heat integration in cryogenic cycles by determining interacycle partition temperature and optimizing refrigeration features like subcooler, presaturator, aftercooler, reboi...

in the era of globalization, particularly, since early 1990s, economies around the world have been affected considerably by co-movements in one or more countries. in the literature this phenomenon is recognized as synchronization in business cycles, while joint policies being conducted by trading partners can modify such effects properly. the objective of this paper has been to evaluate a possi...
