black zira (bunium persicum) is a medicinal plant and spice, naturally grows in iran. the aim of this study was to investigate the combined effects of different concentrations of bunium persicum essential oil (eo; including 0, 0.08, 0.16 and 0.24%), three incubation temperatures (15, 25 and 35˚c), three levels of ph (5, 6 and 7 adjusted by hydrochloric acid), and three inoculum size (102, 103 a...

the control of car following is essential due to its safety and its operational efficiency. for this purpose, this paper builds a model of car following behavior based on armax structure from a real traffic dataset and design a model predictive control (mpc) system. based on the relative distance and relative acceleration of each instant, the mpc predicts the future behavior of the leader vehic...

experimental determination of solubility and ternary phase diagram of chiral compound are of tedious and time consuming tasks, and in many cases, there is not enough experimental data for different enantiomeric compositions to access the experimental ternary phase diagram. using thermodynamic models with predictive capability, having less dependency on experimental data, affords a great advanta...

Data mining has been used intensively and extensively by many organizations. In healthcare, data mining is becoming increasingly popular, if not increasingly essential. Data mining applications can greatly benefit all parties involved in the healthcare industry. For example, data mining can help healthcare insurers detect fraud and abuse, healthcare organizations make customer relationship mana...

Accurate geospatial information on the extent of irrigated land improves our understanding of agricultural water use, local land surface processes, conservation or depletion of water resources, and components of the hydrologic budget. We have developed a method in a geospatial modeling framework that assimilates irrigation statistics with remotely sensed parameters describing vegetation growth ...
