shortage of irrigation water is a crucial problem especially in arid and semiarid regions; therefore, application of wastewater in agriculture in such regions seems to be an indispensable solution. a field experiment was conducted in non-agricultural soil to investigate the effect of treated municipal wastewater (tmw) on the yield and fiber quality of cotton (gossypium hirsutum l.) crop. the tr...

this study was conducted to investigate the effects of age and sex on the fleece characteristics of 40 iranian indigenous khorasan goats. goats were divided into two different sex and age (kids and adults) groups. fiber characteristics under study were: fleece weight, fiber length, lock length, fiber diameter, coefficient of fiber diameter, breaking load, resistance, elongation, hair percentage...

in order to correlation diversity assessment among the quantitative and fiber quality traits, five cultivars of tetraploid cotton (g. hirsutum) cultivars were evaluated at varamin region in 2009. in this study the populations of the cultivar lines were planted near together and 100 lines randomly were selected at the end of the season followed by measuring seed cotton yield and quantitative and...

in recent years dietary fibers have been considered due to its beneficial effects. since the amount of fiber in dietary diet is usually less than the recommended amount (30 gr/day), fortification of bread with fiber can play an important role to achieve its health benefits. this project was studied to investigate on the possibility of supplementation of flour with dietary fibers. two different ...

Due to the widespread applications of fiber reinforced polymer composites in various industries, the machining of these materials to reach the desired shapes, close tolerances and surface finish quality is of great importance. But the composite materials are anisotropic and are mostly prepared in laminated form and, therefore, they have special chip formation behaviour. Among the effective para...

This study was conducted to compare forage quality of two native halophytespecies Camphorosma monspeliaca and Limonium iranicum collected from Meighansaline rangelands near Arak city in center of Iran. Edible biomass of both species wassampled on three phonological stages (vegetative growth, full flowering and seedripening). Forage quality indices such as Crude Protein (CP), Dry Matter Digestib...

Measurement of stress transients generated by a 400ns pulsed HF laser in an infrared fluoride glass fiber has been made using fast time – response piezoelectric film transducer. Acoustic signals up to 12 mV with frequencies ranging in megahertz generated by 21 mJ laser pulse when passed through the fiber axis in the linear region. It is shown that useful information such as onset of non - linea...
