Fullering process is a type of open die forging. In this research, elongation and maximum sideways spread in final shape of a billet after the first blow of a fullering process are predicted by designing a back propagation multilayer perceptron neural network. Several experiments are conducted using lead as the model material. Billets with three different square cross-sections are used in these...

In this research a final element model for simulating three dimensional deformation in rolling of flat product is modeling in ABAQUS and further developed to study the frictional effects on spread and bulge. To predict the magnitude of bulging , the rolling process is approximated by successive forging steps. The elongation or the average spread at each step from the previous calculations are u...

Elongation of the point spread function due to atmospheric dispersion becomes a severe problem for high resolution imaging instruments, if an corrector is not present. In this work we report on novel technique measure elongation, corrected or uncorrected, from data. By employing simple diffraction mask it possible magnify chromatic elongation caused by atmosphere and thus make easier measure. W...

twenty-two bread wheat cultivars along with susceptible (sholeh) and resistant (azadi) control cultivars were evaluated for resistance to russian wheat aphid of two growth stages including seedling and stem elongation in greenhouse. five adult aphids per plant were used for infestation. leaf chlorosis at seedling and stem elongation stages and leaf rolling at seedling stage were measured. other...

Zygomycosis is increasingly recognized in immunocompromised hosts. We investigated whether platelets become activated after contact with Zygomycetes and adhere to conidial and hyphal structures using immunofluorescence. The platelets' influence on fungal viability was evaluated by assessing hyphal elongation and hyphal damage. Platelets became activated and strongly adhered to conidia and hypha...

Background and Aim: Considering the importance of the clinical significance of the elongated styloid process, this study aimed to assess the prevalence and pattern of calcification and elongation of the styloid process on digital panoramic radiographs of an Iranian population. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted on 500 digital panoramic radiographs of patients over 18 years old wit...

The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of drought stress on the kinetics of leaf elongation in relationship to the variation of sugar concentrations and their net deposition rates along the elongation zone of leaf 4 of durum wheat plants. Plants were grown in soil in a naturally illuminated greenhouse, and water...
