In this study, fuzzy logic was implemented to formulate the fuzziness of layer boundaries for a two-layered clay soil. A field of two-layered clay with fuzzy boundaries between layers was generated, and then the bearing capacity of strip footing on this field was calculated by the assumption of plane-strain conditions. The Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion was used and bearing capacity calculation...

One of the most important parameters in evaluating a watermarking algorithm is its capacity. Generally, watermarking capacity is expressed by bits per pixel (bpp) unit measure. But this measure does not show what the side effects would be on image quality, watermark robustness and capacity. In this paper we propose a three dimensional measure named Capacity surface which shows the effects of ca...

the aim of this research was to evaluate some soil physical quality indicators using remotely sensed date, gis and geostatistical methods in baft area that is one of the most important centers of agricultural production in kerman province. therefore, soil samples were collected from 0 to 20cm depth of 183 points based on regular sampling pattern (every 250 meters) and soil physical indicators i...

Abstract This article mainly introduces that, as the proportion of renewable energy to total consumed increases further, with large-scale development and construction new energy, local power grid may face problem conflicting consumption in future, original transmission lines will no longer meet demand. For this reason, dynamic capacity increase technology is used calculate load real-time. Throu...

drought stress is one of the most important factors limiting the survival and growth of plants in the different habitats of iran. detailed knowledge about the ecophysiological responses of native plants to drought stress could contribute to the success of breeding and re-vegetation programs. six wild populations of anthemis tinctoria, were assigned to four drought treatments, i.e. well-watered ...

iran is among the world's arid and semi-arid countries. drought stress is one of the most important environmental stresses affecting fruit trees and considerably can cause yield reduction. persian walnut (juglans regia l.) with significant area harvest is one the most important nuts in iran which require sufficient amounts of water for optimal growth and efficiency. in order to study the e...

understanding the physiological processes associated with drought stress lead to an understanding of the basic mechanisms of resistance, maintaining yield potential and contribute to the identification of drought tolerant cultivars. for this purpose, the effects of drought stress in cowpea genotypes was evaluated using five different genotypes with different yield potential in a pot experiment ...
