background: this study investigated the effects of lignosus rhinocerotis (lrs) supplementation and resistance training (rt) on isokinetic muscular strength and power, anaerobic and aerobic fitness, and immune parameters in young males. methods: participants were randomly assigned to four groups: control (c), lrs, rt, and combined rt-lrs (rt-lrs). participants in the lrs and rt-lrs groups consum...

in this paper, after collecting the rock samples from eight mines and one high way slope, the tests for determination of dry density, uniaxial compressive strength, tensile strength (brazilian test), elastic modulus, schmidt hammer rebound number have been done on samples. in addition, in order to calculating the mean size of rock grains, quartz content, hardness and abrasivity, a thin sections...

This paper deals with modeling and optimization of the roll-bonding process of Ti/Cu/Ti composite for determination of the best roll-bonding parameters leading to the maximum Ti/Cu bond strength by combination of neural network and genetic algorithm. An artificial neural network (ANN) program has been proposed to determine the effect of practical parameters, i.e., rolling temperature, reduction...

Compressive strength and concrete slump are the most important required parameters for design, depending on many factors such as concrete mix design, concrete material, experimental cases, tester skills, experimental errors etc. Since many of these factors are unknown, and no specific and relatively accurate formulation can be found for strength and slump, therefore, the concrete properties ca...

In recent years, great attention has been paid to the development of high manganese austenitic TWIP steels exhibiting high tensile strength and exceptional total elongation. Due to low stacking fault energy (SFE), cross slip becomes more difficult in these steels and mechanical twinning is then the favored deformation mode besides dislocation gliding. Chemical composition along with processing ...
