BACKGROUND Due to negligence, Persian (Iranian) traditional medicine has had a weak presence in the world of research for a long time. However, in recent years, a variety of activates by research and faculty centers have created awareness and a platform to introduce and promote Persian medicine to the world. The aim of this study is to present and analyze scientific achievements of Persian medi...

We describe a simple electrospray interface incorporating a long drift region and a DC ion carpet. The function of the drift region is to thermalize and desolvate the ions. It has a series of ring electrodes supplied with RF and DC voltages, which radially confine and transport ions towards the DC ion carpet. The DC ion carpet consists of a series of concentric rings on a planar printed circuit...

In a recent paper Cristea and Tichy introduced several types of discrepancies of point sets on the s-dimensional Sierpiński carpet and proved various relations between these discrepancies. In the present paper we prove a general lower bound for those discrepancies in terms of N , the cardinality of the point set, and we give a probabilistic proof for the existence of point sets with “small” dis...

OBJECTIVES Work-related musculoskeletal disorders in the neck and shoulder regions are common among carpet weavers. Working for prolonged hours in a static and awkward posture could result in an increased muscle activity and may lead to musculoskeletal disorders. Ergonomic workstation improvements can reduce muscle fatigue and the risk of musculoskeletal disorders. MATERIAL AND METHODS The ai...

due to universal importance of tabriz carpet art and presence of specific indicators and motifs in tabriz carpet art and its potentials, existence of architectural site for representing this art as carpet art museum in tabriz is necessary. the site of this project is located adjacent to tabriz blue mosque near the museum historical site. it is essential to consider the historical elements and c...

In this paper building statistical language models for Persian language using a corpus and incorporating them in Persian continuous speech recognition (CSR) system are described. We used Persian Text Corpus for building the language models. First we preprocessed the texts of corpus by correcting the different orthography of words. Also, the number of POS tags was decreased by clustering POS tag...

BACKGROUND Carpets are large reservoirs of the dust mite allergen Der p 1. The effect of vacuum cleaning on the distribution of Der p 1 in carpets is poorly understood. METHODS Samples were cut from 7 used household carpets, all over 5 years of age. From each carpet, 10 samples were left untreated, 10 vacuumed with an upright vacuum cleaner, and 10 vacuumed with a canister vacuum cleaner. Eac...

Magnetic resonance imaging has been used to visualize moisture distribution in cut-pile nylon carpet following the dyeing and finishing process and before it enters the dryer. At moisture levels typical of those following hydro-extraction (i.e., ~70%), water is concentrated within the carpet yarns of the backing. From optical micrographs, it can be seen that this is the same region as the small...
