Precision forging process is widely used for the production of spur gears due to its advantages such as improved strength and surface finish, little waste of materials and reduction in the machining time of the gear. An important aspect of precision forging process is the load required to perform the process successfully and design the forging tools. In this research, a new kinematically admiss...

the seasonal abundance patterns of the cotton aphid, aphis gossypii glover, in cotton fields at gorgan in northern iran were studied during two growing seasons of 2002 and 2003. the spatial distribution of different developmental stages and morphs of the aphid was described by fitting data to poisson (random) and negative binomial (aggregated) dis-tributions, and calculating the dispersion indi...

different conservation tillage practices are nowadays suggested as the best solution for prevention of soil from erosion. this could be done by leaving the previous crop residue on the soil surface. a new idea to plant in the conservation tillage system is the use of punch planters by which one can plant through a heavy depth of previous crop surface residue. the study was conducted using a 2?3...

This paper describes a series of experiments in using logistic regression machine learning as a method for entity resolution. From these experiments the authors concluded that when a supervised ML algorithm is trained to classify a pair of entity references as linked or not linked pair, the evaluation of the model’s performance should take into account the transitive closure of its pairwise lin...

In this issue of The Oncologist, we begin a series of articles that consider the often problematic challenge of understanding and applying genomic information to the practice of oncology. Bardia et al. [1] describe the genomic findings from a patient with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer after progression on hormonal therapy. In this case, tumor profiling revealed an ESR1 mutation ...
