This paper constructs strong-stability-preserving general linear time-stepping methods that are well suited for hyperbolic PDEs discretized by the method of lines. These methods generalize both Runge–Kutta (RK) and linear multistep schemes. They have high stage orders and hence are less susceptible than RK methods to order reduction from source terms or nonhomogeneous boundary conditions. A glo...

we examined the effectiveness of intermittent warming (iw), hot water (hw), salicylic acid (sa), and calcium chloride (cacl2) on the postharvest life of pomegranate fruit cv. ‘shishe-kab’ and extending fruit shelf life during cold storage (3°c). fruit were subjected to cycles of 1 d at 17 ± 1°c every 6 d of storage at 3°c under iw conditions. pre-storage treatments were hw (50°c) for 3 min, sa ...

production of part-baked bread is a successful method to postpone bread staling that has been applied widely for production of loaves. in this research, production and some physical characteristics of part-baked flat bread (barbari) including hardness, volume, color, weight loss, and microstructure were studied during the storage of the samples at ambient (25ºc) and freezing (-18ºc) temperature...

background: umbilical cord tissue is a very rich source of mesenchymal stem cells. instead of discarding this source we are banking the tissue along with cord blood for possible future cell based applications. the cord tissue needs to be transported and stored properly in order for it to be good enough for cell isolation at a later date. in this paper we have carried out a validation study to d...

smirnovia iranica (sabeti) synonym: smirnovia turkestana (bunge) is a deciduous perennial bushy species of the fabaceae (papilionaceae) family. the species grow on sand dunes of desert areas, having a deep vertical root and very long horizontal or lateral roots. they have an important role in natural vegetation of desert and sand dune stabilization. limited growing areas, grazing due to good pa...
