سابقه و هدف: شهرنشینی در جهان رو به افزایش است جمعیت شهری حال متراکم تر شدن شهرها می باشد. یکی از اثرات درصد سطوح نفوذ ناپذیر این مناطق امروزه بسیاری شهرهای مهم جهان، برای کاهش توسعه شهر خود بر کیفیت کمیت رواناب، مفهوم پایدار توجه نموده فنّاوری‌های مدرن سبز مدیریتی، شامل بهترین روش‌های مدیریتی با حداقل جانبی بهره می‌گیرند. بام سبز، یک سیستم چندلایه ای که سقف بالکن ساختمان را پوشش گیاهی پوشانده ج...

The main objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of reverse osmosis (RO) and nanofiltration (NF), under various solution chemistries, on bacterial regrowth potential as quantified by assimilable organic carbon (AOC) and biodegradable dissolved organic carbon (BDOC). The bench-scale experiments, using tap groundwater spiked with acetate as organic carbon, revealed that AOC remo...

The fundamentals of growth-linked biodegradation occurring at low substrate concentrations are poorly understood. Substrate utilization kinetics and microbial growth yields are two critically important process parameters that can be influenced by low substrate concentrations. Standard biodegradation tests aimed at measuring these parameters generally ignore the ubiquitous occurrence of assimila...

This study sought to characterize the role of free radicals in regulating central and peripheral hemodynamics at rest and during exercise in patients with heart failure (HF). We examined cardiovascular responses to dynamic handgrip exercise (4, 8, and 12 kg at 1 Hz) following consumption of either a placebo or acute oral antioxidant cocktail (AOC) consisting of vitamin C, E, and α-lipoic acid i...

The engineering of the Air and Space Operations Center (AOC) resists the application of traditional systems engineering approaches. More like an enterprise (with multiple sets of stakeholders representing separate fiefdoms and principalities, differing funding sources, and different management structures for the component pieces) than an airframe or a tank; the AOC is actually a “complex system...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES We sought to develop an Area of Concentration (AOC) in international health to inspire and better prepare interested residents for such experiences during residency and in the future. METHODS The curriculum has three phases: pre-experience preparation, the international experience, and post-experience debriefing. In the last 2 years, residents and faculty have worked...

This paper presents Petri net software tool P3 that is developed for training purposes of the Architecture and organization of computers (AOC) course. The P3 has the following features: graphical modeling interface, interactive simulation by single and parallel (with previous conflict resolution) transition firing, two wellknown Petri net analysis tools (Reachability tree, Matrix equations), as...

Medical image classification plays an essential role in disease diagnosis and clinical treatment. More more research efforts have been dedicated to the design of effective methods for medical classification. As framework, capsule network (CapsNet) can realize translation equivariance. Lots current applies networks analysis. In this paper, we propose attentive octave convolutional (AOC-Caps) AOC...

In patients with advanced ovarian cancer (AOC), additional imaging of disseminated disease at laparoscopy could complement conventional imaging for estimation of chemotherapy response. We developed an image segmentation method and evaluated its use in making accurate and objective measurements of peritoneal metastases in comparison to Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) criter...

Epileptic seizures are often characterized by profound alteration of consciousness (AOC). This is particularly frequent in temporal lobe seizures (TLS), a subgroup of seizures originating in the temporal (and usually mesial temporal) brain areas. The mechanisms of AOC in TLS have long been discussed and several theories have been proposed. Recent investigations have provided new hypotheses link...
