nursing tacit knowledge is a knowledge that is produced inside the mind of nurses and not saved in any databases. the main challenge of nursing knowledge management is transferring tacit knowledge inside the mind of nurses to the others – especially scholars and researchers. this study evaluates personal, organizational, and technological factors affecting the tacit knowledge transfer among nur...

conclusions the prevalence of msds among the nurses was high, and the occurrence of such disorders was found to be related to the scores of mapo and ptai indices. based on the results, these two indices can be used as appropriate tools to assess the risk of msds in patient handling by nursing staff. the risk of developing msds can be lowered through interventional programs, such as providing an...

fifty years ago warren and root have introduced the shape factor. this fundamental parameter for modeling of naturally fractured reservoirs has been discussed stormily ever since. different definitions for shape factor have been suggested which all of them are heuristically based. recently, heinemann and mittermeir mathematically derived - based on the dual-continuum theorem assuming pseudo-ste...

In this paper, overall heat transfer coefficient and friction factor of water based γ-Al2O3 nanofluid in a double tube counter flow heat exchanger have been measured experimentally under turbulent flow condition. For better dispersion of γ-Al2O3 nanoparticles in distilled water, magnetic stirrer and ultrasonic vibrator (with a power of 240 kW and frequency of 35 kHz) were implemented. The stabi...

a thermodynamic analysis of the counter flow wet cooling tower (cwct) in the steelmaking unit of the khuzestan steel company (ksc) is performed in this paper. we evaluated both energy and exergy formulations for analyzing the heat and mass transfer, exergy and second-law efficiency in this cooling tower. the lewis factor le f is an indication of the relative rates of heat and mass transfer in a...
