Positron annihilation lifetime (PAL) technique has been employed to investigate the effect of low doses of -irradiation (in air and vacuum) on the type of polymers namely: polystyrene (PS). A conventional fast-slow coincidence system was used for measuring the positron lifetime spectra. The time resolution of the system was ٤٢٢±٢٠ ps (the full width at half maximum (FWHM)) at Na energy window....

This work presents a methodology for designing models in engineering and education fields for verifying the quality assurance conditions. The first model uses matrix structural analysis (MSA) to calculate the expected values for the model. The matrix structural analysis (MSA) uses to design model in engineering field, this helps to expect the values which is the nearest to the real ones. The MS...

Segmentation of images holds an important position in the area of image processing. It becomes more important while typically dealing with medical images where pre-surgery and post surgery decisions are required for the purpose of initiating and speeding up the recovery process Computer aided detection of abnormal growth of tissues is primarily motivated by the necessity of achieving maximum po...

Objective: To evaluate the association of TNF-α with recurrent and missed miscarriage. Method: a case-control study involved 35 women, 15 with recurrent miscarriage (at least three consecutive spontaneo...

Concerns about traditional chemical pesticides has led to increasing research into novel mosquito control methods. This study compared the effectiveness of 2 different types of polystyrene beads for control of mosquito larvae in south-east Islamic Republic of Iran. Simulated field trials were done in artificial pools and field trials were carried out in 2 villages in an indigenous malaria area ...
