with the increasing world population and limitations on arable land, increasing the yield per unit is one of alternatives human food supply. greenhouse cultivation as one ways of increase the performance can arrive this purpose. but the energy restriction of another human challenges, so that increase the performance without considering energy consumption almost appears to be meaningless. due to...

conclusions this study showed a high prevalence of energy drinks consumption among youth. the current results highlight the importance of education to prevent the consumption of energy drinks in excessive quantities and modifying some wrong perceptions regarding the benefits of energy drinks in youth. patients and methods a pilot cross-sectional study survey was undertaken on students aged betw...

man raises level of his needs by falsifying the nature and construction of the built spaces. by examining various aspects and complex dimensions of the human, variable and different needs can be clearly seen. therefore, an architectural construction, especially housing, should be able to set the access conditions to meet the highest level of the needs and achieve to the highest level of respons...

due to increasingly expansion of energy consumption and also decreasing and tendency towardsending fossil energy reserves, the current energy cycle needs to use alternative energy speciallywind energy, because it’s considerably cheaper than other recycling sources. the present researchinvestigates possibility of creating wind power station economically at soltanieh zone of zanajnprovince regard...

fuel wood provides the main source of energy for cooking and space heating for over 80 percent of households living in kenya. the heavy reliance on the biomass energy has exerted an imbalance in demand and supply consequently resulting in adverse environmental effects in kenya. as part of innovation efforts, several energy-conserving technologies have been developed. a unique cook stove named m...

in this research, energetic andexergetic analysis of calcium oxide formation, co2 emissions, andenvironmental effects during the clinker production process in rotary kilnare investigated. first the energy and exergy analysis of rotary kiln were carried out according to the first and second law of thermodynamics based on dead state, respectively. consequently, the amount of co2 emissions associa...

the armaticity of 5 methylcytosine tautomers in the gas phase has been studied and the chemical structures of related tautomers are investigated . the electronic energy, enthalpy and free energy of each tautomer are also estimated at the b3lyp/6-31 g* // b3lyp/6-31 g* and mp2 / 6-31 g* // mp2 / 6-31 g* levels
