objectives: hemiplegia is a non-progressive damage in premature growing brain which causes movement disorders in one side of the body. the objective of present research is to study the method of modified constraints induced movement therapy (cimt) which can be appropriate on unimanual and bimanual functions of children with hemiplegia. methods: this single-blinded, randomized, control trial stu...

abstract some issues such as dehydration, local and chronological disproportion of rainfall, low productivity of water in agricultural sector, increasing demand for agricultural products due to increase in population participate with doughtiness are the most challenges of agricultural water. these factors caused water to be as one of the important and scarce inputs is agricultural products. the...

this article is devoted to study of the autoconvolution equations and generalized mittag-leffler functions. these types of equations are given in terms of the laplace transform convolution of a function with itself. we state new classes of the autoconvolution equations of the first kind and show that the generalized mittag-leffler functions are solutions of these types of equations. in view of ...

correlation between breeding value of crude milk (cm) and energy-corrected milk (ecm) was studied based on a total of 774,013 test day records belongs to 88,456 first-parity holsteins dairy cattle calving during 1997-2009 in 165 herds (from six provinces). genetic analysis of the traits was carried out by a fixed regression test day model. in the model, effects of herd, calving year, production...

the first step to quantify crop phenology is precise estimation of the parameters, which affect it. these parameters are mainly temperature and photoperiod. this study was conducted with eight sowing dates to quantify response of stem elongation rate (ser) to temperature and photoperiod in wheat (tajan cultivar). the regression models fitted to ser against temperature were flat, logistic, quadr...

in this paper, some results of singh, gopalakrishna and kulkarni (1970s) have been extended to higher order derivatives. it has been shown that, if $sumlimits_{a}theta(a, f)=2$ holds for a meromorphic function $f(z)$ of finite order, then for any positive integer $k,$ $t(r, f)sim t(r, f^{(k)}), rrightarrowinfty$ if $theta(infty, f)=1$ and $t(r, f)sim (k+1)t(r, f^{(k)}), rrightarrowinfty$ if $th...
