ti-6al-4v titanium alloy has great application in medicine and military industries due to its capabilities, namely high strength to weight ratio and corrosion resistance. in the current research, the effect of aging treatment on microstructure and wear behavior of ti-6al-4v titanium alloy was investigated. pin on disk wear test was applied to assess the wear behavior. specimens were first solut...

Abstract: The analysis of longevity can support decisions about the length seed lot storage until commercialization, since this characteristic implies maintenance viability over time. Seed is analyzed by p50 test, which expresses time to lose 50% initial viability. Seeds with high vigor and germination have greater physiological potential and, thus, a capacity maintain quality throughout period...

objective: despite the high strength of zirconia restorations, aging in the oral environment and masticatory loading may result in transformation of tetragonal to monoclinic phase and decrease their strength. statements in this regard are controversial. this study sought to compare the flexural strength (fs) of zirkonzahn (zirkonzahn, cercon, ceramill) and mamut (dubai medical equipment llc, du...

in order to evaluate the physiological indices in relation to the screening of spring safflower genotypes for drought tolerance and productivity, seed and oil yields and yield components were measured for five genotypes including local arak, local esfahan, sina, kh23 – 57 and goldasht. the study was conducted in a loam soil in east azarbaijan, iran, during three successive years (2005-2007)...

the experiment was to study the effects of replacing soybean meal by rubber seed meal on growth, economics and carcass characteristics of broiler. a total of 150 day-old commercial broiler (cobb-500) was reared for a period of 35 days. there were five treatments including t0 (without rubber seed meal), t1 (10% rubber seed meal), t2 (20% rubber seed meal), and t3 (30% rubber seed meal) and t4 (4...

conclusions: focusing on successful aging and adopting hpbs can prevent and decrease aging problems which in turn decreases the financial burden and related costs. this is especially important for the policy and decision makers of the health systems. results: the mean age of the participants in this study was 65.9 ± 3.6 (range 60-73). results showed a statistically significant difference betwee...
