using nonlinear mathematical analysis, on the data obtained for.time seriesof shahd-iran price during 3.5 years, the characteristics,of the process associated with this, is analysed. analysing the behaviour of the time series associated with returns is indicative ofits short-term predictability nature. however, employing analysis regarding the correlation dimension estimate. it is indicated tha...

Dynamic characteristics of a typical multistory building in Iran have been studied in two different stages of building construction, using ambient vibration tests. Finite element models have also been used to determine these characteristics and to verify test results. The results indicated the agreements and also differences between conventional theoretical models and the behaviour of real stru...

owing to elastic and viscous characteristics embedded rubber compounds, the dissipated energy from periodic deformation is converted into heat generation and consequently, the tire may have different body temperatures for different operating conditions. in most performed investigations, just temperature distribution is considered and the mechanical behaviour of rubber parts which are highly tem...

a r t i c l e i n f o In recent years, bullying has come into focus as a critically important social issue that demands empirical understanding to inform best practice regarding both intervention and prevention. In Western cultures, low physical aggression in boys, but high physical aggression in girls, predicts elevated victimization due to bullying, and we predicted that the same would be tru...

This paper presents a framework for a computational model of temporary design teams (TDTs). The framework is based on the situated Function-Behaviour-Structure (FBS) ontology, which is used to describe the different aspects of a TDT. This paper demonstrates how TDTs can be represented and reasoned about in terms of the FBS variables. A situated social agent’s architecture is introduced. At the ...
