some physical attributes of two common types of iranian garlic cloves (white and pink) were identified and compared. a machine vision system was used to determine three di-mensions and both major and minor projected areas of garlic cloves at a moisture content of 42.4% w. b. the geometric mean diameter and sphericity were calculated, as well as the unit mass and volume of cloves were measured. ...

changes in proximate composition, colour and textural characteristics of ozone-processed shrimp as affected by combined effects of increasing ozone exposures and iced storage were investigated and for the first time. whilst proximate composition comprised of fat, moisture, and protein contents and colour comprised of l*, a*, b* and metric chroma (c), the texture comprised of adhesiveness, fract...

Two experiments examined listeners ability to make accurate inferences about speakers from the nonlinguistic content of their speech. In Experiment I, na€ıve listeners heard male and female speakers articulating two test sentences, and tried to select which of a pair of photographs depicted the speaker.

The purpose of this paper is to present the possibility of replacing physical unit cost in transportation or distribution problems by an aggregate coefficient, getting qualitative and subjective considerations involved. The model for constructing aggregate cost is a two stage multiple attribute decision-making problems. In the first stage supply points, demand points and routes of transportatio...

Boxing is one of the oldest combat sports. The aim of the current review is to critically analyze the amateur boxer's physical and physiological characteristics and to provide practical recommendations for training as well as new areas of scientific research. High-level male and female boxers show a propensity for low body fat levels. Although studies on boxer somatotypes are limited, the avail...
