in order to study the effect of water hardness on sinosulforun efficacy an experiment was carried out under controlled conditions in 2010 at the college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad. treatments included herbicides doses at 6 levels (0, 200, 250, 300, 350 and 400 g.a.i ha-1), calcium carbonate concentration at 6 levels (0, 100, 300, 600, 1000 and 1500 ppm) and weeds at 2 levels...

according to ibn-al-arabi, the bound world or detached imagination is a divine graded excellency in which both the abstract and material world are exemplified. perception of such manifestation is possible through formal discovery; because the creatures that appear in this realm, have both the delicacy of abstraction and the ability to be tangible like material things. perception of these creatu...

in this study, potential application of image texture analysis as a non-destructive method for automation and prediction of mechanical properties of carrot chips was investigated. samples were fried at different processing conditions and moisture content, colour parameters (i.e. l*, a*, b* and e) and mechanical properties (i.e. hardness and apparent modulus) were determined. hardness and appar...

Seaweed has long been used in the Japanese and Chinese diet. In 600 B.C., Sze Teu wrote in China, "Some algae are a delicacy fit for the most honored guests, even for the King himself." Some 21 species are used in everyday cooking in Japan, six of them since the eighth century. Seaweed accounts for some 10% of the Japanese diet and seaweed consumption reached an average of 3.5 kg per household ...

Stonefish envenomation is a common marine sting. Although stonefish injuries are commonly sustained during maritime activities, this local delicacy can also be considered a regional occupational hazard for chefs. The availability and consumption of stonefish in local restaurants has increased the risk of acute carpal tunnel syndrome after a stonefish injury. This case report describes acute car...

This is the first of a series of papers related to resolution of singularities. We present here examples which explain why many arguments and proofs work in special situations, say small dimension or zero characteristic, but fail in general. This exhibits in particular the delicacy of resolution of singularity for arbitrary excellent schemes. The examples were originally assembled for the autho...

the present article aims to investigate the background and casts light on a social and cultural forgotten tradition that has been reflected through a complex simile as well as illusory words in the following couplet of the survived rudaki's poems. behind the clouds, the sun makes appear its face now and then like a prisoner passing by her watcher according to the findings of this article, ...

the static strain aging is a phenomenon that can change the mechanical properties of low carbon steels. thus, the static strain aging behavior of low carbon steel wires after drawing process is studied. to do so, the wires are austenitized at different temperatures and cooled in different rates. then the wires are drawn and aged at a specific temperature and time. before and after aging of each...

Wild mushrooms are a popular delicacy in many countries and their consumption is rather high in some individuals. Some species, mainly from the genera Agaricus, Macrolepiota, Lepista and Calocybe accumulate a high content of cadmium and mercury even in unpolluted areas. Levels of these metals increase considerably in heavily polluted sites, such as in the vicinity of both working and abandoned ...

nowadays, equal channel angular pressing, known as the ecap process, is one of the most popular methods for manufacturing ultra-fine grained (ufg) materials. in this paper, ecap process has been carried out on pure copper and 6012 aluminum alloy up to six passes by route . principal attention was paid to the influence of parameters such as diameter, material, and the height of billet on mechani...
