In order to study of ecological and phenological traits of Ferulago angulata asan important medicinal plant, this research was conducted in Hezar Mountains andBondareh Henza in Kerman province, Iran. Random samples of this plant were taken andtheir vegetation habitat conditions and their growth characteristics including height ofcollar leaves, height of flower stem, flower stem number and forag...

In this paper we restrict every set splitting problem to the special case in which every set has just three elements. This restricted version is also NP-complete. Then, we introduce a general conversion from any set splitting problem to 3-set splitting. Then we introduce a randomize algorithm, and we use Markov chain model for run time complexity analysis of this algorithm. In the last section ...

In June 2016, around 200 scientists from all over the world gathered at EMBL headquarters in Heidelberg, Germany to discuss the recent advances in hematopoietic stem cells from three different angles: developmental, adulthood and aging. The meeting, aptly named 'Hematopoietic stem cells: from the embryo to the aging organism' also covered cutting-edge technologies applied to this subject, such ...

Machine vision methods are widely used in apple defect detection and quality grading applications. Currently, 2D near‐infrared (NIR) imaging technology is used to detect apple defects based on the difference in image intensity of defects from normal apple tissue. However, it is difficult to accurately differentiate an apple's stem‐end/calyx from a true defect due to their similar 2D NIR images,...

dry beans are rich sources of dietary fiber and phytochemicals such as flavonoids and phenolics that exhibit good functional properties. in current study line, cooking and soaking time effects were investigated on water absorption, splitting and texture properties of different iranian red kidney beans to determine the best lines and the best soaking time for industrial use. d81083 line showed t...

Effects of three different morphological methods-lemmatization, stemming and inflectional stem generation-for Finnish are compared in a probabilistic IR environment (INQUERY). Evaluation is done using a four point relevance scale which is partitioned differently in different test settings. Results show that inflectional stem generation which has not been used much in IR, compares well with lemm...

Amongst many strategies for renewable energy conversion, light-driven water splitting to produce clean H2 represents a promising approach and has attracted increasing attention in recent years. Owing to the multi-electron/multi-proton transfer nature of water splitting, low-cost and competent catalysts are needed. Along the rapid development of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) during the last tw...

-The characteristics of a number of metal components proposed as impact energy absorbers are reviewed, attention being focussed on to modes of deformation which stem from the axial compression of metal tubes. Progressive buckling, inversion and splitting are discussed and areas for future work identified. The buckling of thin-walled square section tubes filled with polyurethane foam is also des...
