to determine the droplet characteristics of agricultural spray nozzles through water sensitive paper (wsp), the non-circular and overlapped spots appearing on the water sensitive paper surfaces are eliminated. in the conventional approach, the procedure is done according to the subjective self determined estimation of the operator. the objective of this study was to develop a practical alternat...

according to the increased fungi contaminations and related damages, microbiologist's incentive in considering the fungal contaminations in human habitats had increased. some of fungi cause disease through production of toxins in animals as well as humans. since these toxins are not easily distinguishable, then it is crucial to study their characteristics. aspergillus are among the most importa...

the aim of this study is to compare the sensitometric properties of commonly used radiographic films processed with chemical solutions in different workload hospitals. the effect of different processing conditions on induced densities on radiologic films was investigated. two accessible double emulsions fuji and kodak films were exposed with 11-step wedge and processed with champion and cpac pr...

background: breast cancer is one of the most important diseases in females. malaysian women have not excluded. according to the malaysian oncology society [1], about 4% of women (who are 40 years old and above) have involved by breast cancer. masses and microcalcifications are two important signs for breast cancer diagnosis on mammography. according to our estimation, radiologists could diagnos...

flow shop sequencing problem is included in np-hard problems and a number of heuristic methods have been developed to solve it. most of these methods are offered for the crisp processing time. however fuzzy algorithm is appropriate for the problems with fuzzy processing time. this paper presents a method in which an algorithm is used to minimize make span of flow shop with fuzzy processing time...

‎We present an application of the dual Gabor frames to image‎ ‎processing‎. ‎Our algorithm is based on finding some dual Gabor‎ ‎frame generators which reconstructs accurately the elements of the‎ ‎underlying Hilbert space‎. ‎The advantages of these duals‎ ‎constructed by a polynomial of Gabor frame generators are compared‎ ‎with their canonical dual‎.

Objective: Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a chronic, disabling, and functional disorder of the gastrointestinal tract in the absence of identifiable structural disorder. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between sensory processing sensitivity and life style with perceived stress considering mediating role of duration of syndrome in patients with IBS using structural equ...

the study is an analysis of processing methods, marketing channels, and profitability determinants of selected cassava products in kogi state, nigeria. the study was carried out in kogi east senatorial district of the state. a multi-stage sampling technique was employed in the selection of 120 respondents from whom information were collected and analyzed. the data used for the study were collec...

t he study examined factors influencing the adoption of improved cassava processing technologies. interview schedule was used to collect information from 100 rural women involved in cassava processing. the average age of the respondents was 51 years and majority (77%) had formal education. the women’s main source of information on the improved cassava processing technologies was through the wia...
