Background: Since 2000, Iran has been delivering training and treatment services, including methadone therapy, to HIV positive patients through triangular clinics. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of these activities at the HIV Triangulation Centre in the city of Kerman, Iran, through clients’ views. Methods: Participants were recruited using a convenience sample and assessed throu...

this paper is concerned with the problem of designing discrete-time control systems with closed-loop eigenvalues in a prescribed region of stability. first, we obtain a state feedback matrix which assigns all the eigenvalues to zero, and then by elementary similarity operations we find a state feedback which assigns the eigenvalues inside a circle with center   and radius. this new algorithm ca...

substrates' concentration profile was studied in a porous matrix containing immobilized amyloglucosidase for glucose production. this analysis was performed by using an analytical method called least square method, and the results were compared with numerical solution. effects of effective diffusivity, michael's constant, maximum reaction rate and initial substrate concentration were studied on...

This paper considers the problem of the stabilization of affine nonlinear control systems. First, we assume that the systems under investigation are of the generalized Byrnes–Isidori normal form. A new way to approximate the center manifold is proposed, which can reduce the error degree of the center manifold approximation. A new matrix product, called the semi-tensor product, is introduced to ...
