We report development of a continuous scanning procedure and the use of a time delay integration (TDI) line scan camera for a light-sheet based microscope called a thin-sheet laser imaging microscope (TSLIM). TSLIM is an optimized version of a light-sheet fluorescent microscope that previously used a start/stop scanning procedure to move the specimen through the thinnest portion of a light-shee...

presence of arsenic, a heavy metal, in soil and water resources originating from geological formations of qorveh plain, which is considered as the main agricultural zone of kurdistan province in western iran, has put the agricultural products of this region at risk of pollution. since arsenate, as the most abundance form of arsenic in soil environment, competes against phosphate anion; applicat...

Performance-based seismic design (PBSD) method has been widely recognized in recent years, it can be used for the future structural design. And the direct displacement-based design method (DDBD) is one of the most effective ways to implement the performance-based seismic design (PBSD) theory in current. In this paper, aiming to the composite frame consisting of composite beams and continuous co...

Composite columns were preferred over reinforced concrete in modern-day construction techniques due to their confinement effect. Different materials utilized as the outer confining tube and are mainly characterized by mechanical properties. The main objective of this research is develop a novel simplified artificial neural network model for determination ultimate axial load circular composite i...

buckling instability is the most important factor at columns failune. icauses large deflection and mostly is analysed by first yield criterion. due fo some difficulties in application of the criterion, soecially in inelastic columns, a new method, namely geometric criterion is introduced in this paper to improve the buckling analysis of real columns. in this research project a number box- secti...
