landfill is the major method of solid waste disposal in developing countries. to protect soil andgroundwater from contamination, anti-seepage systems have to be installed in landfills. however, during theconstruction of anti-seepage system, many factors can result in holes in geomembrane liners. for the purpose of improving construction quality, the construction company needs to find the leaks ...

abstract wenner direct contact method is a method of estimating apparent electrical conductivity (eca) of agricultural soils in situ. this method can be affected by factors such as quality of electrodes in contact with soil, type of employed electric current, moisture content, clay content and compaction of soil. in this research, the effect of electrode type (rod and plate) and electric curren...

the unilateral or bilateral lesion of the substantia nigra pars compacta (snc) by chemical neurotoxins such as 6-hydroxy dopamine (6-ohda) or 1- methyl-4- phenyl -1,2,3,6 – tetirahydro pyridine (mptp) are the most commonly and the main used methods for generating the animal models of parkinson’s disease (pd). but these agents are expensive, dangerous, difficult to use and inaccessible convenien...

steering assist system controls the force transfer behavior of the steering system and improves the steering probability of the vehicle. moreover, it is an interface between the diver and vehicle. fault detection in electrical assisted steering systems is a challenging problem due to frequently use of these systems. this paper addresses the fault detection and reconstruction in automotive elect...

in this study, focuses on applying the hp-version for forward modeling. the eit forward solver is normally based on the conventional finite element method (hfem). in h-fem, the polynomial order p of the element shape functions is constant and the element size h, is decreased. to accurately simulate the forward solution with the hfem, a mesh with large number of nodes and elements is usually need...
