Objective: The objective of this research is to examine PCB compounds in the Persian Gulf in the Southern Pars area. Methods: In the research, 6 stations were sampled: Asalouyeh Port, Kangan Site, Mehr Petro Kima Petrochemical, 4th Refinery in Southern Pasr, Taheri Port and Aria Sasol Polymer. To sample water in the stations determined, one-liter sampling bottles of dark glass were used. In eac...

groundwater quality characteristics are affected by lithology and geological structure of aquifer formations. this research has studied the groundwater chemical quality of the upper aji-chai basin with regard to different geological formations. using pie and piper diagrams, the researchers analyzed hydro-chemical elements of 47 sample groundwater resources. after determining water type of sampl...

Духовно-нравственные, философские основы олонхо получили освещение в трудах ведущих исследователей олонхо: философов, основоположников якутской литературы. Как основное содержание выявлены гуманизм, патриотизм, преклонение перед героизмом. Подчеркнуто, что отразились глубинные истоки мировоззрения, космогонические представления, культ природы, мифологизм, основе – идея «счастья и благополучия в...

We present a decentralized, behavior-based approach to assembling and maintaining robot formations. Our approach dynamically grows formations from single robots into line segments and ultimately larger and more complex formations. Formation growth occurs by negotiation when robots are in close proximity. The approach has been validated using simulation as well as experiments with physical robot...

This paper treats the problem of the merging of formations, where the underlying model of a formation is graphical. We first analyze the rigidity and persistence of metaformations, which are formations obtained by connecting several rigid or persistent formations. Persistence is a generalization to directed graphs of the undirected notion of rigidity. In the context of moving autonomous agent f...

The individual feathers in the skin of a developing chicken embryo are arranged in a precise array within a series of so-called 'tracts'. The images above show nascent feather buds in the legs of embryos at 8–9 days of incubation. Buds are added sequentially across the forming feather tract, as shown by the range of developmental stages in the image at top left. (In all three upper images, buds...

Multi-agent formations have been recently the subject of many studies. An important operational challenge, largely unaddressed in the literature, is to ensure that functionality of the formation is retained should agents be lost through misadventure, mission reassignment, and so on. In the context of sensor networks, it is also important to allow for the loss of multiple sensors as the low qual...

The present study was carried out to determine the possible origins of sediments entering Taleghan Dam in northern part of Iran, in order to avoid further sedimentation and helping in extension of the useful life of the proposed dam. This was performed by XRD analysis. To do so, first of all, sediment sampling points were positioned along the Taleghan River. The collected samples, after coding,...
