in order to study the intercropping of barley (hordeum vulgare l.) and faba bean (vicia faba l.) an experiment was conducted as factorial based on randomized complete block design with two factors and three replications at sari agricultural science and natural resources university during 2009. the first factor was two seed ratios include d1: 75 and 150 kg.ha-1 of faba bean and barley, respectiv...

The usage of social theories in the human-built environment caused to enhance life quality. It may consist of human needs in residential areas. Sometimes, building codes can help to exist accepted life space, but the building codes do not have basic theory such as actual open space in residential plots. The study was an attempt to represent a new approach in urban land subdivision and the relat...

The aim of this research was to study the effect of various water-to-cement ratio on the properties of pervious concrete. Tests were carried out to find the optimum water-to-cement ratio that gives a high compressive strength with acceptable permeability. The tests of fresh density, compressive strength at 7days, porosity and water permeability for four mixes of pervious concrete with various w...

The paper presents the effect of different synthesis parameters, such as (a) fly ash to alkaline solution ratio, (b) concentration of NaOH solution, (c) concentration of sodium silicate solution, (d) geopolymer solids to water ratio and (e) sodium silicate to sodium hydroxide solution ratio, on the compressive strength of geopolymer concrete synthesized from fly ash of Indian origin. It is obse...

Both the continuous and batch transesterification of linseed oil were examined in order to maximize the fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) yield. The continuous process was conducted in a packed bed reactor using calcium oxide as a heterogeneous catalyst. In addition, the impact of two variables, namely the molar ratio of methanol to oil and the flow rate (ml/min), on the FAME yield were stu...
