constructed upon a height (by footing) or breaking in to the ground, in a building, making a close relation between earth and soil is of great importance. in addition, earth as a prior factor in creation of a shade and residence, plays a crucial role in architecture history. throughout the different area, earth is paid attention differently: as a source of cool (in china), a source of heat (cap...

sustainable architecture is known as an important strategy in recent years and all around the world are cooperating to achieve this by use of natural elements. there are many examples of residential buildings in iran s past and its traditional architecture that the architecture in the interim of paying attention to aesthetic issues and preserving the natural environment acts in a way that meets...

Magnetic materials offer attractive applications in biomedicine with a variety of from sensors to diagnosis and treatment. Special attention deserves the nanofeature elements as nanostructured surfaces or nanoparticles that have been proposed alternatives for drug delivery vectors, bactericide treatments, lab-on-a-chip sensors, hyperthermiabased cancer therapy, magnetic bio-separation emerging ...

We propose a continuum description for the axial separation of granular materials in a long rotating drum. The model, operating with two local variables, concentration difference and the dynamic angle of repose, describes both initial transient traveling wave dynamics and long-term segregation of the binary mixture. Segregation proceeds through ultraslow logarithmic coarsening. [S0031-9007(99)0...
