Although most odorants we encounter in daily life are mixtures of several chemical substances, we still lack significant information on how we perceive and how the brain processes mixtures of odorants. We aimed to investigate the processing of odor mixtures using behavioral measures and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). The odor mixture contained a target odor (ambroxan) in a concen...

In this paper, we make a short history about: the neutrosophic set, neutrosophic numerical components and neutrosophic literal components, neutrosophic numbers, and elementary neutrosophic algebraic structures. Afterwards, their generalizations to refined neutrosophic set, respectively refined neutrosophic numerical and literal components, then refined neutrosophic numbers and refined neutrosop...

We describe work to quantify the effects of structured dielectric thin films, such as SiNx, at surface III-V semiconductors, in terms strain engineering with applications photonic components waveguides and lasers. show that semiconductor can be engineered by controlling stress film tuning its deposition process. In first part this study, we how control amount built-in mechanical stress, case ov...

An experiment was conducted at the Research Farm of the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Tabriz, Iran in 2012 to study the effect of intercropping of chickpea and Dragon’s head on yield, yield components and morphological traits of Dragon’s head as affected by four weed management time. The experiment was laid out in RCB design with three replications. Intercropping patterns included; a<su...

Coal with low ash content has an important role in the coal and steel industry. There are different methods to measure the ash content. The conventional method which is used in most coal mines of Iran, is to burn the coal and measure the remaining ash. A new method has been recently developed at Nuclear Research Center (NRC) of Iran, Which works on the basis of the absorption of the dual en...

The development of specifications often is a combination of smaller sub-components. Focusing on reuse, an interesting perspective is to formally define the combination of sub-components through refinement steps, reusing their properties and generating larger systems. The previous situation suggests the application of a reuse mechanism: composition. Event-B is a formal method that allows modelli...
