it is very important to study and simulate s-wave structure for near surface (alluvium parts, in particular) owing to its direct relationship to urban facilities in geotechnical and earthquake engineering studies. so, in seismic microzonation, the first step is to study and identify s-wave pattern in alluvium in order to categorize different parts of cites according to s-wave velocity. current ...

abstract background prolonged p-wave duration and p-wave dispersion indicate interatrial conduction disturbance and early predict arrhythmia especially atrial fibrillation. iron deposition in the atrial tissue might prolonged the atrial conduction time, and this study evaluated the p-wave prolongation and increased p-wave dispersion in these patients. materials and methods fifty patients with m...

the existing theory for wave propagation through a soil layer are not compatible with the real soil layers because in the theory the layers are flat and the sub-layers are parallel, while in real the soil layers are not flat and they may not be parallel. thus, wave propagations through a corrugated interface are so important. in this paper, a two-dimensional sh-wave propagation through a corrug...

background: we sought to assess right ventricular (rv) systolic and diastolic functions via tissue doppler imaging (tdi) in order to discriminate right-to-left (bidirectional) from left-to-right intracardiac shunts. methods: a tissue doppler velocity study via doppler echocardiography was performed in 20 patients with left-to-right shunt (without evidence of significant pulmonary hypertension) ...

the iranian “new wave” filmmakers started to pay attention to social changes during the pahlavi regime. imperial pahlavi successfully suppressed his political oppositions in decade of 1332-1342 (hijri shamsi) and spread a social reform during the following decades in 40’s to 50’s. the iranian cinematic movement that was called new wave by some persian film critics because of its similarly to th...

A systematic study on the electrochemical behavior of the S-derivatives of 2-amino cyclopentene-1-dithiocarboxylic acid (ACDA) has been carried out in aqueous ethanolic solutions by means of polarography, coulometry and voltammetry. All the compounds studied exhibited a well defined anodic wave corresponding to a diffusion controlled process. Controlled potential coulometry gave n=1 per mol...

The present study is concerned with the variational principle and plane wave propagation in double porous thermoelastic infinite medium. Lord-Shulman theory [2] of thermoelasticity with one relaxation time has been used to investigate the problem. It is found that for two dimensional model, there exists four coupled longitudinal waves namely longitudinal wave (P), longitudinal thermal wave (T),...
