for over the past several decades, there has been a great concern about energy crisis and lackof non-renewable resources. residential buildings take more than 25% of the total energy consumption and morethan 75% of energy consumption in these buildings is for heating, cooling and hot sanitary water. on the other hand,traditional buildings of iran were designed according to ecological conditions...

In previous research 2-year-olds have failed to show knowledge of solidity in a search task in which a ball rolled behind a screen and was stopped by a barrier. The screen had four doors and the barrier was visible above the door hiding the ball. To establish what cues 2-year-olds might be using, precise point-of-gaze measures were taken during the hiding event. A transparent screen with opaque...

This data article describes the experimental data used in the research article "Incorporating individual differences in human reliability analysis: an extension to the virtual experimental technique" (Musharraf et al., 2017) [1]. The article provides human performance data for 36 individuals collected using a virtual environment. Each participant was assigned to one of two groups for training: ...

introduction: the aim of this study was to determine which technique of uncinectomy, classical or swing door technique.  materials and methods: four hundred eighty cases of sinusitis were selected and operated for functional endoscopic sinus surgery (fess). out of these, in 240 uncinectomies classical uncinectomy was done whereas in another 240 uncinectomies swing door technique was used. initi...

Parcel delivery is a complex logistic service, as it serves many small or medium-sized customers who may send or receive parcels. Modeling such delivery system needs to integrate two different research areas of hub location and vehicle routing. As it totally depends on the network and the linkage of the nodes, in this paper, some door-to-door service providers are taken into account to provide ...

Remember all the to-do a couple of years ago about whether Florence Nightingale was a suitable role model l. for today's nurses? Tell you what, her common sense opinions on matters related to nurses and nursing seem just as apposite now as they undoubtedly were during her lifetime.

We review the main reasons pushing us beyond the SM and we argue in favor of new physics at the electroweak scale (hence experimentally accessible at present or near–future machines). We focus on the appealing possibility that such new physics is given by a super-symmetric (SUSY) extension of the SM. We discuss the minimal case, Constrained Minimal Supersymmetric SM, and more general (maybe mor...
