in the near future the use of distributed generation systems will play a big role in the production ofelectrical energy. one of the most common types of dg technologies , fuel cells , which can be connectedto the national grid by power electronic converters or work alone studies the dynamic behavior andstability of the power grid is of crucial importance. these studies need to know the exact mo...

In this paper, symmetric water entry of twin wedges is investigated for deadrise angle of 30 degree. Three numerical simulation of a symmetric impact, considering rigid body dynamic equations of motion in two-phase flow is presented. The two-phase flow around the wedges is solved by Finite Element based on Finite Volume method (FEM-FVM) which is used in conjunction with Volume of Fluid (VOF) sc...

it was thought previously that cardiac muscle gap junctions provide low-resistance connections between cells and permit the local-circuit current to flow. some evidences show that myocardial cells may not require low-resistance connections for successful propagation of the action potential (ap). it seems that some other types of mechanisms must be involved in ap propagation. in this article, we...

the effect of addition of qodumeh shahri (lepidium perfoliatum) seed gum on the emulsion properties were investigated in this study. l. perfoliatum seed gum with 0-0.6% (w/w) concentration was used together with 2% (w/w) wpc to emulsify 20% (w/w) corn oil. the emulsion was analyzed for emulsion stability, particle size, specific surface area, particle size distribution and rheological propertie...

During consolidation process of saturated cohesive soil the soil stiffness increases. Increase of the effective stress due to dissipation of excess pore pressure causes additional stiffness of soil mass. This phenomenon has a very important effect on the behavior of saturated cohesive soils during dynamic loading. In the current investigation the changes in maximum shear modulus. Gmax and dampi...

abdominal wall hernias are the most common situations requiring major surgeries. in this study, we report a large incisional hernia, as an incidental finding, in a tc-dtpa scan of a renal transplant recepient. increased flow of activity in dynamic phase and relatively increased and nonuniform tracer accumulation in static phase of the study were observed.
