seismic base isolation are devices that used to limit the human and material damage caused by an earthquake. this devices diffuse the energy induced at the time of the earthquake before being transferred to the structure.the base isolated structures when subjected to the near-fault eathquakes which contain long-period velocity pulses that may coincide with the period of base isolated structures...

abstract     in order to study the relationships among seed yield and its components in nigella sativa, path coefficient and factor analysis was done using some agro- morphological traits of 21 different genotypes. genotypes were evaluated using a completely randomized design with four replications in ardestan university research farms. there was a high and positive correlation between seed yie...

seeds of 200 accessions of alfalfa (medicago sativa l.) were provided from iraniannatural resource gene bank and were sown as drilled plot using alpha designs/unreplicatedwith 2 repeated entries within all of 10 blocks under dry land farming system in agriculturalresearch center of hamadan, iran during 2009 to 2010. the data were collected and analyzedfor plant height, stem number, leaf stem ra...

to identifying of the high yielding wheat lines with optimal characteristics and to determine the traits which could be used as the selection index for increasing of grain yield, 40 recombinant inbred lines derived from a cross between norstar and zagros cultivars were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications. the measured characters consisted of peduncle weight, ...

determination of the response of differentcrop varieties to environmental variables from planting to harvest is one of the fundamental pillars of agriculture planning to achieve maximum yield and desirable quality. changing planting date by effect on vegetative and reproductive growth period and balance between them, will affect yield and product quality. in order to study the responses of four...

Since the initial report in 1978 of galactopoietic effects of a photoperiod of 16 h of light:8 h of darkness, numerous studies have confirmed long-day stimulation of milk yield. The endocrine factor(s) responsible for increased milk yield, however, has eluded identification. Recent studies suggest that insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) may mediate the galactopoietic response to long day phot...

application of various composts has been intensified in agriculture, due to manifestation of negative effects of chemical fertilizers on environment and soil fertility. however, their usage should be accompanied by environmental and nutritional studies. to study the effects of sulfur granular compost on yield and yield components of two wheat cultivars, a pot experiment was conducted in a compl...

. In order to study the variation for seed yield and its components, 200 accessions of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) were sown as drilled plots, using alpha designs/unreplicated with two repeated entries with in all of 10 blocks under dry land farming system in Kabodarahang Research Station, Hamadan, Iran, during 2010 to 2011. Data were analyzed for descriptive statistics, correlation, regressio...
