In this paper a practical method for tropospheric effects on GPS derived coordinates in absolute mode is presented. GPS observations at the permanent GPS stations can be used as source of information for the modeling. The developed model is a time-dependent model and as such differs from usual tropospheric models, which are based on atmospheric parameters, i.e. temperature, pressure and humidit...

background: municipal solid waste (msw) is the natural result of human activities. msw generation modeling is of prime im­portance in designing and programming municipal solid waste management system. this study tests the short-term pre­diction of waste generation by artificial neural network (ann) and principal component-regression analysis. methods: two forecasting techniques are presented in...

carbon nanostructures are famous structures which are used in several industries such as separation, treatment, energy storage (i.e. methane and hydrogen storage), etc. a successful modeling of activated carbon preparation is very important in saving time and money. there are some attempts to achieve the appropriate theoretical modeling of activated carbon preparation but most of them were almo...

Soft tissue modeling for the creation of a haptic simulator for training medical skills has been the focus of many attempts up to now. In soft tissue modeling the most important parameter considered is its being real-time, as well as its accuracy and sensitivity. In this paper, ANFIS approach is used to present a nonlinear model for soft tissue. The required data for training the neuro-fuzzy mo...

rice blast, caused by pyricularia grisea, is one of the most important diseases of this crop in iran and all over the world. to evaluate the relationship between spore population (sp) and meteorological factors, sp was measured daily using spore trap during growing seasons of 2006-2008 in rasht and lahijan regions (guilan province, iran). weather data including precipitation, daily maximum and ...

The objective of this study was to model seasonal behavior of broiler price in Iran that can be used to forecast the monthly broiler prices. In this context, the periodic autoregressive (PAR), the seasonal integrated models, and the Box-Jenkins (SARIMA) models were used as the primary nominates for the forecasting model. It was shown that the PAR (q) model could not be considered as an appropri...
