A proper orthogonal decomposition (POD)-based reduced-order model of the parabolized Navier–Stokes (PNS) equations is derived in this article. A space-marching finite difference method with time relaxation is used to obtain the solution of this problem, from which snapshots are obtained to generate the POD basis functions used to construct the reduced-order model. In order to improve the accura...

in order to study genetic diversity in 178 accessions of lentil (lens culinaris medik) originated from warm climate regions of iran, this experiment was conducted in 2009 at research farm of the national plant gene bank of iran in karaj. experimental design was an augmented experiment with six blocks and each block containes 30 accessions. accessions were compared with promising lines including...

background transient hypocalcemia is one of the postoperative complications of thyroidectomy for thyroid nodules, and intraoperative and postoperative intact parathyroid hormone (ipth) assays are used to predict postoperative hypocalcemia. objectives the current study was conducted to evaluate a single serum ipth measurement on postoperative day 1 (pod 1) as a means to predict hypocalcemia occu...

combining ability effects were estimated for different agronomic characters in line × tester crossing program comprising 21 hybrids produced by crossing 7 lines and 3 testers. parents and hybrids differed significantly for general combining ability (gca) and specific combining ability (sca) effects, respectively. the variance due to gca and sca showed that gene action was predominantly additive...

Strigolactones (SLs) are newly identified hormones that regulate multiple aspects of plant development, infection by parasitic weeds, and mutualistic symbiosis in the roots. In this study, the role of SLs was studied for the first time in the model plant Lotus japonicus using transgenic lines silenced for carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase 7 (LjCCD7), the orthologue of Arabidopsis More Axillary Gr...

to investigate the effect of sowing density and growth habit on yield, yield components and weed community of red bean an experiment was conducted at research farm of zanjan university, during 2009. the experiment carried out using factorial-split plot design in completely randomized block arrangement with three replications. the main plots, included three red bean cultivars (goli, sayyad and d...

In order to elucidate the effect of sowing date on oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) yield and yield components, three varieties including Tower, Rafal and Global were sown from November 7 to December 22, 1998-99 in four dates with 15day intervals in Dezful region. A split-plot design based on randomized complete blocks with four replications was used in which levels of sowing dates and cultivar...
