Currently, more than 16% of world energy demand is fulfilled by nuclear power plants (NPPs). This amounts to 2800 TWh energy annually generated by more than 441 NPPs operating in 31 countries worldwide [17]. Amongst these NPPs, the LWRs contribute to more than 85% of total energy produced by all nuclear reactors [20]. With the advantage of being proven technology along with extensive operationa...

Next-generation communication networks are positively looking towards the energy-efficient transfer of information and energy over the same wireless channel. Thus, users would be able to receive information and harvest energy. However, under the requirement of smaller base station (BS)-to-users (UEs) distances and higher received power levels, the physical layer will become more vulnerable to c...

Residual self-interference (SI) cancellation in the digital baseband is an important problem in full-duplex (FD) communication systems. In this paper, we propose a new technique for estimating the SI and communication channels in a FD communication system, which is inspired from superimposed signalling. In our proposed technique, we add a constant real number to each constellation point of a co...

Individual Learning style (LS) had gained an enormous attention as learning process became more independent and student-centered. Furthermore, studies had shown that a congruence learning and teaching style could lead to a successful learning process. One of the frequently used instruments to determine student’s LS is Kolb’s Learning Style Inventory (LSI). According to the Kolb’s model, the LSI...

iran, between third to fifth centuries ad, witnessed one of the urbanization boom periods in his history. in this period, iranian towns were capable of commodity exchange and  manufacturing  products. in this context, growth of knowledge and rationalism , moderation in politics, community participation, growth and development of the intellectual trends and movements caused rationality and reaso...

Publication of dislocate is made possible by the generous support of the Lerner Foundation; we thank the Foun dation for their continued involvement. We are also grateful to the following organizations and individuals for their assistance: the Edelstein-Keller Endowment, We are informed and inspired by the ghosts of dislocate past and are especially grateful to previous editors Jennifer Fossenb...

We develop models of stochastic discount factors in international economies that produce stochastic risk premiums and stochastic skewness in currency options. We estimate the models using time-series returns and option prices on three currency pairs that form a triangular relation. Estimation shows that the average risk premium in Japan is larger than that in the US or the UK, the global risk p...

Introduction: Toxoplasmosis is one of the most common parasitic zoonoses around world. It caused by Toxoplasma gondii. This study aimed to detect prevalence toxoplasma in women Baghdad province. Method: One hundred and five blood samples were taken from who had abortions or at risk abortion admitted clinic province during period 2021-2022. In accordance with protocol, examined for T. gondii IgM...

Trees have assumed special importance after it was realized that trees could help reduce the emission of atmospheric carbon by trapping it in various pools of carbon viz. above ground biomass, below ground biomass, soil, litter and dead wood. Carbon sequestration through biomass seems to be a cheap and viable option to mitigate the increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases. The study attemp...
