We present a complete simulation engine to produce fast and realistic animations of clothes. This system is able to model clothes for animated and motion captured characters. Efficient algorithms for solving the arising equation of motion are employed. Also fast and reliable algorithms for proximity detection and collision response are crucial in animation, and we will present new methods allow...

The paper is based on a large qualitative study of ethics, policy and regulation of human embryonic stem cell (hESC) science in Iran. This case study in five academic research centres used semi-structured interviews to examine in depth the views of stem cell scientists, embryologists and ethics committee members on hESC research policy in this Shia Muslim country. Although Iran's policy approac...

3D-CT after full color spectrum rendering. Digital medium. The skin surface hangs like a soft satin over the transparent body with the trachea and lungs in the centre. Look, can you find some emphysematous bullae in the lungs? Cross section of the thorax at the level of the heart forms the background.

Implementation of electronic prescribing system can overcome many problems of the paper prescribing system, and provide numerous opportunities of more effective and advantageous prescribing. Successful implementation of such a system requires complete and deep understanding of work content, human force, and workflow of paper prescribing. The current study was designed in order to model the curr...

Trauma is a leading cause of death and disability around the world. Injuries are responsible for about six million deaths annually, of which ninety percent occur in developing countries. In Iran, injuries are the most common cause of death among age groups below fifty. Trauma system development is a systematic and comprehensive approach to injury prevention and treatment whose effectiveness has...
