Geomorphic parameters are very helpful as they can quickly explain the concerned area, which is going through a tectonic adjustment. For this purpose, four indices were applied to examine active tectonics in Quetta-Ziarat region. These include: sub-basins asymmetry (Af), transverse topography (T-Factor), hypsometric integral (HI) and stream-length gradient (SL). The calculation of three denoted...

We investigated the radiologic developmental process of the arcuate fasciculus (AF) using subcomponent diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) analysis in typically developing volunteers. DTI data were acquired from 96 consecutive typically developing children, aged 0-14 years. AF subcomponents, including the posterior, anterior, and direct AF tracts were analyzed. Success rates of analysis (AR) and fra...

in this study, the quaternary deformation and tectonic activity of saeedabad-chai drainage basin, are assessed using geomorphic approach. this drainage basin is located in northern slope of sahand mountain. north tabriz fault (ntf), is passing from the saeedabad-chai basin. variation in the morphology of mountain front provied the basis for geomorphic assessment of tectonic activity. therefore,...

Disruption of fronto-temporal connections involving the arcuate fasciculus (AF) may underlie language processing anomalies and psychotic features such as auditory hallucinations in schizophrenia. No study to date has specifically investigated abnormalities of white matter integrity at particular loci along the AF as well as its regional lateralization in schizophrenia. We examined white matter ...

The retention time of 22 barbituric acid derivatives was measured on a narrow-bore porous graphitized carbon (PGC) column using water-dioxane mixtures as mobile phases. The capacity factor (k), theoretical plate number (N), and asymmetry factor (AF) were calculated for each solute in each mobile phase. The relationships between chromatographic characteristics and physicochemical parameters of s...

The retention time of 23 barbituric acid derivatives was determined on an narrow-bore porous graphitized carbon (PGC) column employing water-dioxane mixtures as mobile phases. The retention factor (k), theoretical plate number (N), and asymmetry factor (AF) were computed for each analyte in each mobile phase. Quantitative structure-retention relationship (QSRR) calculations using stepwise regre...

Using frictional force microscopy (FFM), the friction surface characteristics were compared between twisted nematic (TN) mode and vertical alignment (VA) mode alignment films (AFs). The friction asymmetry was detected depending on temperature conditions on TN mode AF, but not on VA mode AF. The difference between two modes was explained by leaning intermolecular repulsion caused by the pre-tilt...

A top-quark reconstruction method at Clic is described. The reconstructed events are used to measure the ee → tt̄ cross-section as well as the forwardbackward asymmetry. The results suggest that the measurement accuracy for the cross-section will be δσ σ = 1.4 % and for the asymmetry δAF B AF B = 4.2 % for 1 ab.

study of tectonic affects in many fluvial systems shows that, rivers are valuable tools to active tectonics surveying. study of stream channels and their associated deposits offset by faulting may reveal the amount displacement at particular site and give information that is critical for future earthquake hazards evaluation. study area which is a subbasin of atrak river is located at the ne ira...

The Kordkanlo Basin, one of the Atrak sub-basins, located in the northeastern of the Ghoochan city, the Khorasan Razavi Province; is situated in Kopet Dagh geologic zone. The overall objective of this study is to evaluate the morphotectonic effects on the drainage network of the basin, using morphometric indicators. In this research, morphometric quantitative indicators of hypsometric integral ...
