in some conditions, to avoid deterioration and field losses of soybean seeds (glycine max merr.) from weathering at end of the season, farmers start to harvest seeds with a high moisture content and so, careful post-harvest drying would be required to maintain the physiological quality of seeds. response surface methodology (rsm) was used to optimize the operating conditions of soybean seed dry...

a specific form of the inertial law is presented by which we can gain a deeper insight into the essence of mass and inertia. in this modified theory, there is no need to keep the concept of absolute space and newton's third law as principles, by introducing a convenient form for gravitational law the coupling constant g becomes a function of inertial parameters of the universe

in this work some quantitative structure activity relationship models were developed for prediction of three bioenvironmental parameters of 28 volatile organic compounds, which are used in assessing the behavior of pollutants in soil. these parameters are; half-life, non dimensional effective degradation rate constant and effective péclet number in two type of soil. the most effective descripto...

Vapor-liquid equilibrium in NH3-CO2-H2O system at high pressures has been studied. The UNIQUAC-NRF model for this system was extended by using the Goppert 4 maurer reported datas. Since the system contains molecules and ionic species the binary interaction parameters considered, where those are of molecule-molecule, molecule-ion and ion-ion types. These interaction parameters are taken as c...

a simple mathematical model of steady state  oxygen distribution subject to diffusive transport and non- linear uptake in a retinal cylinder has been developed. the approximate analytical solution to a reaction- diffusion equation are obtained by using series expansions. the computational results for the scaled variables are presented through graphs. the effect of the important parameters (1) d...

most of the biological phenomena are influenced by intermolecular recognition and interaction. thus, understanding the thermodynamics of biomacromolecule ligand interaction is a very interesting area in biochemistry and biotechnology. one of the most powerful techniques to obtain precise information about the energetics of (bio) molecules binding to other biological macromolecules is isothermal...

the n-(2-benzoyl-phenyl) oxalyl derivatives are important models for studying of three-centered intramolecular hydrogen bonding in organic molecules. the quantum theoretical calculations for two crystal structures of n-(2-benzoyl-phenyl) oxalyl (compounds i and ii) were performed by density functional theory (b3lyp method and 6-311+g* basis set). from the optimized structures, geometric paramet...

Background: Breast is one of the main radiological sensitive organs, hence it is important to evaluate absorbed dose to this organ especially to the glandular parts. It is the aim of this study to measure mean glandular dose and image contrast in terms of different mammographic parameters. Materials and Methods: In this study two mammography machines located at Said-al Shohada (Giotto) ...
