the majority of existing tractors in iran are not equipped with any tools to measure and display slip and ground speed. this is mainly due to the lack of national standards for measuring tools and instruments of tractors. in current research, an interchangeable system for two wheel drive tractors has been designed. furthermore, it has been assessed after construction. to measure actual and theo...

in this paper, dynamic transient method and conventional degree-hours method (static) have been compared to estimate heating and cooling loads of building’s wall. all main wall surfaces of various orientations, i.e.south, west, east, north, and horizontal are considered in the climate of tehran, iran. in this study, a conventional wall structure, which is comprisedconcrete as main wall material...

This study is conducted to measure the actual efficiency comparison of life insurance company between Bangladesh and Malaysia. Total 15 life insurance companies’ were selected for the study where 10 conventional life insurance companies’ from Bangladesh and 5 Takaful lifeinsurance companies’ from Malaysia. Authors tried toindicate the problems and way to get exact solutions by using Data Envelo...

large panel precast structures are analyzed based on the connection rigidity. however, the connections undergo nonlinear and inelastic response, when subjected to seismic loads. thus, to study the actual behavior of structure, the connection nonlinearity should be implemented in the joints. in this paper, three conventional connection types are modeled based on the envelope of their cyclic resp...

a new output structure for class e power amplifier (pa) is proposed in this paper. a series lc resonator circuit, tuned near the second harmonic of the operating frequency is added to the output circuit. this resonator causes low impedance at the second harmonic. the output circuit is designed to shape the switch voltage of the class e amplifier and lower the voltage stress of the transistor. t...

The using of double heat pipe based heat exchanger (HPHX) in a conventional fully fresh air air-conditioning (AC) system was examined in the present study. The fabricated HPHXs were tested under the actual conditions and the measured data were used to study the performance of the existing AC system (System A) and AC system equipped with the double HPHX (System B) for a yearly operation through ...

the first step in the design of plate girder is to estimate the self-weight of it. although empirical formulae for the same are available, the level of their accuracy (underestimate or overestimate) with respect to actual self-weight is not known. in this paper, optimized sections are obtained for different spans subjected to different live load carrying capacities and self-weights are estimate...

during 2010-2011, real-time pcr procedure was used to detecting fmdv rna on 147 epithelium samples from the field. in this survey, for real-time pcr from 3d gene segment as conserve region selected for tracking all of seven serotypes fmdv. the assay detected the viral rna in all serotypes of fmdv. the rrt-pcr specifically detected fmd virus in sample with greater sensitivity than our convention...
