پژوهشگران اخیراً پنل‌های چندلایه‌ی متشکل از الوارهای متقاطع چوبی (C‌L‌T) را به عنوان یکی مناسب‌ترین ماده‌های ساختمانی دارای کمترین اثرات منفی زیست محیطی معرفی کرده‌اند. در طرح سازه‌ی ترکیبی فولادی ـ ارائه شده پژوهش حاضر، قاب ساختمان نوع بوده و برای کف‌ها دیوارهای برشی سازه افقی قائم C‌L‌T استفاده است. جهت بررسی عملکرد سیستم ای پیشنهادی، یک ۶ طبقه با دو باربر جانبی شامل: الف) خمشی متوسط دیافراگم ...

We present a natural extension of Andrews’ multiple sums counting partitions of the form (λ1, · · · , λm) with λi ≥ λi+k−1 + 2. The multiple sum that we construct is the generating function for the so-called K-restricted jagged partitions. A jagged partition is a sequence of non-negative integers (n1, n2, · · · , nm) with nm ≥ 1 subject to the weakly decreasing conditions ni ≥ ni+1− 1 and ni ≥ ...

The impact of shifts in the spectral quality of light on morphogenesis, flowering, and photoperiodic gene expression during exposure to light quality of night interruption (NI) was investigated in Dendranthema grandiflorum. The circadian rhythms of plants grown in a closed walk-in growth chamber were interrupted at night for a total of 4 h, using light-emitting diodes with an intensity of 10 μm...

A dinuclear nickel complex with methyl and thiolate ligands, Ni(dadt(Et))Ni(Me)(SDmp) (2), has been synthesized as a dinuclear Ni(d)-Ni(p)-site model of acetyl-CoA synthase (ACS) (dadt(Et) is N,N'-diethyl-3,7-diazanonane-1,9-dithiolate; Dmp is 2,6-dimesitylphenyl). Complex 2 was prepared via 2 methods: (i) ligand substitution of a dinuclear Ni(II)-Ni(II) cation complex [Ni(dadt(Et)) Ni(tmtu)2] ...

The transport of nickel (Ni) across the renal brush border membrane of the rainbow trout was examined in vitro using brush border membrane vesicles (BBMVs). Both transmembrane transport of Ni into an osmotically active intravesicular space, and binding of Ni to the brush border membrane itself, were confirmed. Nickel (Ni) uptake fitted a two component kinetic model. Saturable, temperature-depen...

Insects can vary greatly in whole-body elemental concentrations. Recent investigations of insects associated with Ni hyperaccumulator plants have identified insects with relatively elevated whole-body Ni levels. Evaluation of the limited data available indicates that a whole-body Ni concentration of 500 g Ni/g is exceptional: I propose that an insect species with a mean value of 500 g Ni/g or g...

The comparative analysis of the electrochemical deposition of Ni and Ni-Fe nanowires (NWs) into ordered porous alumina templates is presented. The method developed allows for obtaining NWs of 50 ± 5 nm in diameter and 25 μm in length, i.e., with an aspect ratio of 500. XRD data demonstrate the polycrystalline nature of Ni and Ni-Fe in a face-centered cubic close-packed lattice. Both fabricated ...

In this study kinetic investigations were combined with X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (XAFS) measurements to determine Ni sorption processes on pyrophyllite, gibbsite, and montmorillonite over extended time periods (min-months). The kinetic investigations revealed that Ni sorption reactions (pH 5 7.5, [Ni]initial 5 3 mM, I 5 0.1 M (NaNO3)) were initially fast (8–35% of the initial Ni was remo...

We show that the differences in the magnetic properties of Ni-Pd and Ni-Pt alloys arise mainly due to relativity. In particular, we find that the local magnetic moment of Ni increases with the addition of Pd in Ni-Pd while it decreases with the addition of Pt in Ni-Pt, as found experimentally, only if relativity is present. Our analysis is based on the effects of relativity on (i) the spin-pola...
