the ability of artificial neural network (ann) for estimating the natural gas demand load for the next day and month of the populated cities has shown to be a real  concern. as the most applicable network, the ann with multi-layer back propagation perceptrons is used to approximate functions. throughout the current work, the daily effective temperature is determined, and then the weather data w...

Multistage stochastic programming is a key technology for making decisions over time in an uncertain environment. One of the promising areas in which this technology is implementable, is medium term planning of electricity production and trading where decision makers are typically faced with uncertain parameters (such as future demands and market prices) that can be described by stochastic proc...

We study prediction of chaotic time series when a perfect model is available but the initial condition is measured with uncertainty. A common approach for predicting future data given these circumstances is to apply the model despite the uncertainty. In systems with fold dynamics, we find prediction is improved over this strategy by recognizing this behavior. A systematic study of the Logistic ...

various stresses during life can affect metabolism and brain activities, immune and endocrine systems directly and indirectly, and ultimately, causes animal behavior change. the cellular and molecular level change in neurotransmitter and hormone concentrations led to the functional changes of operating systems in the intracellular organelles.  these events cause of course oxidative stress. all ...

The present study is dealing with presenting a model for evaluating the effectiveness of short and medium-term training courses at Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences. a combined research method (quantitative, qualitative) was conducted. The statistical population consists of specialists and university administrators and staff of the Medical Sciences Organization in Mazandaran Province.  ...
