Background: Autism as part of the category called Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), is caused by disorders in brain and nervous network and characterized by defect in social behavior, language and cognition. This study aimed to investigate receptive and expressive language performance and the severity of the disorder in 30 children with autism aged 2-8 years who speak in Persian language. Materi...

in this paper we have discussed the main features of a finite clement program which we have developed for nonlinear dynamic analysis of plates and shells with material and geometric nonlinear behaviour. for this purpose, initially, the finite element model which we have used is briefly described. afterwards, the nonlinear viscoplastic material model in one-dimensional and multi-dimensional medi...

Multi-dimensional model order selection (MOS) techniques achieve an improved accuracy, reliability, and robustness, since they consider all dimensions jointly during the estimation of parameters. Additionally, from fundamental identifiability results of multi-dimensional decompositions, it is known that the number of main components can be larger when compared to matrix-based decompositions. In...

Biological processes involve a variety of spatial and temporal scales. A holistic understanding of many biological processes therefore requires multi-scale models which capture the relevant properties on all these scales. In this manuscript we review mathematical modelling approaches used to describe the individual spatial scales and how they are integrated into holistic models. We discuss the ...

Residential satisfaction is a multi-dimensional concept that the degree to which residents feel their place of residence helps them achieve desired goal. The research aims develop holistic model can predict and measure residential in regenerated housing post-socialist cities. for postulates objective subjective measurements after brief review theories gaps within literature. This paper reports ...

the holistic approach encourages the client to  include rehabilitation strategies that support the general person condition. in this approach in every condition of physical and mental health, decreasing stress and increasing person's immunity and psychological resilience can help the whole body cope better, rehabilitate more quickly, and maintain better health. holistic treatment means that the...

investment casting is a versatile manufacturing process to produce high quality parts with high dimensional accuracy. the process begins with the manufacture of wax patterns. the dimensional accuracy of the model affects the quality of the finished part. the present study investigated the control and optimization of dimensional deviations in wax patterns. a mold for an h-shaped wax pattern was ...
