introduction: adhesion formation after pelvic surgery is still a major cause of several morbidities such as infertility, pain, bowel obstruction and subsequent intra-operative complications. our aim was to investigate the effects of d-penicillamine in preventing adhesion formation in rat uterine horn. methods: this experimental trial was conducted on 30 rats. the rats were randomly assigned to ...

an improved model of mud dispersion has been introduced in this work. the advantages of this model consist of a new analytical correlation for dispersivity by using resistivity log data and using a new aspect of capacitance dispersion model. mathematical formulations were expressed, solved by numerical model taking advantage of actual log and formation data. achieved results yielded reasonable ...

a total 7 species and 13 genera of marine gastropod assemblages are reported for the first time from the varehh zard section (asmari formation), north of pole dokhtar, lorestan basin. the section under study, the asmari formation, lies between the shahbazam formation at the base and gachsaran formation at the top. according to the distribution of index foraminifera, the asmari formation is earl...

the kashkan formation (paleocene to middle eocene), consists of conglomerate, sandstone, and siltstone in the zagros folded zone, southwest iran. type of the sedimentary facies, architectural elements and trace fossils show that kashkan deposits were formed in a low sinuosity braided stream system, with north to south flow direction. the formation displays coarsening-upward succession reflects ...

using the mixed solvents, (water +ethanol + propanol), the solubility of cdf2 was determined byevaporating method at 25° c. the results showed that the sollbility, s, of cdf2 decreases bydecreasing the dielectric constant of the mixed solvent .once the solubility of cdf2 was determined,the concentration solubility product, ksp(c)=4s3, was calculated .furthermore ,by estimating the meanactivity ...

In the last two decades the genetic and molecular research on floral development has advanced tremendously. Initially the research focused mostly on the two species of which the homeotic floral development mutants formed the basis for the ABC‐model: Arabidopsis and Antirrhinum. In recent years the importance of studying a wider range of species, especially in an ‘‘evo‐devo’’ context, has become...

We analyze a model of strategic network formation prior to a Manea (2011) bargaining game: ex-ante homogeneous players form costly undirected links anticipating expected equilibrium payoffs from the subsequent network bargaining. Assuming patient players, we provide a complete characterization of non-singularly pairwise (Nash) stable networks: specific disjoint unions of separated pairs, odd ci...

Hexagonal pattern formation in the pigment structure of electrophoretic image displays (EPIDs) is measured in samples with a high concentration of free charge. In this article we will explain which phenomenon is at the origin of the pattern formation.
