In order to investigate the effect of water deficit on yield and morphological characteristics of four alfalfa cultivars an experiment was conducted as a split plot in randomized complete block design with 3 replications in Agriculture Research Center of Khuzestan, Ahwaz, Iran, during 201l-2012. Main plots included irrigation regimes (normal irrigation, irrigation at 50% available water content...

cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...

uncertainty in the financial market will be driven by underlying brownian motions, while the assets are assumed to be general stochastic processes adapted to the filtration of the brownian motions. the goal of this study is to calculate the accumulated wealth in order to optimize the expected terminal value using a suitable utility function. this thesis introduced the lim-wong’s benchmark fun...

Study of potential of alfalfa ecotypes in biomass partitioning and harvestable and non-harvestable parts as well as induction of summer dormancy under water scarcity can lead to develop adapted cultivars for sustainable farming system andto meet targets of the breeding program. Therefore, this experiment was conducted with 10 alfalfa ecotypes under four irrigation managements at Seed and Plant ...

تصفیه پیشرفته پساب آب پنیر (cww) توسط فرایند ترکیبی ناپیوسته بیوراکتور غشایی (mbr) و جذب سطحی مورد مطالعه قرار گرفت. در قسمت اول این مطالعه، فرایند های جذب سطحی، لجن فعال (as) و فرایند ترکیبی لجن فعال و جذب سطحی (as-pac) ارزیابی شدند. داده های تعادلی و سینتیکی مربوط به جذب سطحی مواد آلی موجود در cww بر روی سه نوع کربن فعال پودری (pacs)، توسط هم دمای لانگمیر-فرندلیچ و مدل شبه درجه دوم توصیف شدند...
