abstract assessing moisture in the soil under cultivation of crops to achieve high performance and reduced water are necessary. knowledge of the moisture distribution in the root zone, time consuming and costly field tests that simulation models, a suitable alternative in answer to issues of movement and are water distribution. in this study assessment of soil moisture, to aid swap simulation m...

shortage of water resources and increasing demand to consumption of this scarce resource, leads to somenoticeable limitations. on the other hand, population growth and consequently, increasing demand for water in aridand semi arid regions , needs production in exchange of little amount of water consumption. to approach thisobjective, an experiment in the complete randomized blocks carried out i...

molecular understanding of three-dimensional (3d) peptide: mhc models require both basic knowledge of computational modeling and skilled visual perception, which are not possessed by all students. the present model aims to simulate mhc molecular structure with the hands and make a profound impression on the students.

many mathematical models have been applied and developed for simulation of water and solute transport in irrigated agriculture. using a model, it should be first calibrated and validated for different regions. swap is a field scale model that simulates water, solute and heat movement in the soil profile. in this study, the swap model was evaluated for two years (2001 and 2002) on wheat in a sem...

behaviour of the dilution characteristics of the coastal waters off tuticorin is presented in thebackground of setting up of a desalination plant. simulations of dispersion and spreading of the proposeddischarges has been carried out. scenarios of dilutions were assessed based on the results of a 2d model using the advection-dispersion theory. it is observed that under prevailing currents in th...

in this study, the effect of some toxic organic chemicals on mogan lake has been investigatedusing the aquatox model. the unique property of the model includes the sub ecotoxicological modelwhen compared to the other water quality models. the ecosystem model aquatox, which is one of the fewgeneral ecological risk models that represents the combined environmental repercussions and effects of tox...

the need for more comparisons among models is widely recognized. this study aimed to compare three different modelling approaches for their capability to simulate and predict trends and patterns of winter wheat yield in western germany. the three modelling approaches included an empirical model, a process-based model (lintul2), and a metamodel derived from the process-based model. the models ou...

ion channels are naturally occurring pores through the proteins that regulate the passage of ions and thus maintain the concentration of ions inside and outside the cell. the ion channels control many physiological functions and they can show selectivity for a specific ion. ion channels are mostly observed in nerve cells and muscle cells. the influx of ions into cells can be regulated by a gate...

this article proposes composition of fuzzy sets theory with discrete-event simulation and puts it into application in order to model uncertain activity duration in simulating a real-world system. the purpose of this paper is to assess the usefulness of fuzzy simulation for modeling uncertain activity duration, especially when insufficient or no sample data is available. in this research, fuzzy ...

abstract one of the major factors on the amount of water resources is river flow which is so dependent to the hydrologic and meteorologic phenomena. simulation and forecasting of river flow makes the decision maker capable to effectively manage the water resources projects. so, simulation and forecasting models such as artificial neural networks (anns) are commonly used for simulation and predi...
