background alanine aminotransferase (alt) level is the most common diagnostic test used for detection of liver damage; however in the past few years some studies have questioned the normal aminotransferase range in adults and have suggested its revision. objectives in this study, we assessed the upper limit of alt and aspartate transaminase (ast) in a healthy population of iranian children. pat...

given the sensitivity of current ground-based gravitational wave (gw) detectors, any continuous-wave signal we can realistically expect will be at a level or below the background noise. hence, any data analysis of detector data will need to rely on statistical techniques to separate the signal from the noise. while with the current sensitivity of our detectors we do not expect to detect any tru...

presented is a method of two-dimensional analysis of the active earth pressure due to simultaneous effect of both soil weight and surcharge of strip foundation. the study’s aim is to provide a rigorous solution to the problem in the framework of upper-bound theorem of limit analysis method in order to produce some design charts for calculating the lateral active earth pressure of backfill when ...
