this paper concentrates on a new procedure which experimentally recognises gears and bearings faults of a typical gearbox system using a least square support vector machine (lssvm). two wavelet selection criteria maximum energy to shannon entropy ratio and maximum relative wavelet energy are used and compared to select an appropriate wavelet for feature extraction. the fault diagnosis method co...

paint cure oven is one of the most important parts of automobile production line. the cure speed and the magnitude of energy consumption are significant in auto manufacturing industry. the radiation oven has been of the interest by cure industry due to the reduction in energy consumption and appropriate cure. the design process of these ovens is really complex specially for bodies with complex ...

conclusions the effects of rp knowledge, attitude, and practice on job stress were significant. in order to reduce job stress in radiation environments, ongoing training programs related to self-care and protection principles are recommended. results the prevalence rate of job stress was 22.5% based on calculation formulas and possible scores on the jcq. sex, rp-knowledge, attitude, practice, a...

abstractbackground: there are relatively rich uranium mines in regions of saghand and bafgh in yazd province. this survey was carried out to provide a map of ambient gamma radiation of yazd province and the probable effects of the existence of these mines on background radiation dose rates.materials and methods: the measurements of the outdoor and indoor–environmental exposures (including cosmi...

this study aimed to evaluate the radiation safety condition and the level of radiation-awareness amongst staff and patients in 18 hospitals of shahid beheshti university of medical sciences, tehran, iran. this descriptive, cross–sectional study was administered to patients and personnel, also making a review on the radiation-safety status in the hospitals. in evaluating the level of awareness, ...

background: in general, measurements of solar ultraviolet (uv) radiation are related to horizontal surfaces. while the hu­mans walking and standing outdoors expose to the natural solar uv radiation, their eyes, cheeks, extremities, trunks, or many other anatomical sites are close to vertical plane and random orient to different directions. in this study, we character­ized the diurnal variations...

abstract background and purpose: people are always exposed to ionizing radiation, which could badly influence their health. the degree of these influences depends on the level of radiations. in this study the dose of indoor gamma radiation was assessed using rds-110 multi-purpose survey meter. materials and methods: to determine the dose rate of indoor radiations in cities of hamedan province f...

background: in radiation therapy, water is the phantom material of choice, both for reference and for relative dosimetry measurements. solid phantoms, however, are more useful for routine measurements because they tend to be more robust and easier to set up than water phantoms. materials and methods: fluka input data cards have been arranged in sequential order. a simple cylindrical geometry wi...

background and objective: professional radiation workers are occupationally exposed to long-term low levels of ionizing radiation. occupational health hazards from radiation exposure, in a large occupational segment of the population, are of special concern. biological dosimetry can be performed in addition to physical dosimetry with the aim of individual dose assessment and biological effects....
