Draft traffic impact assessment (TIA) guidelines for various landuses in general, and for high traffic generating buildings in particular, were published in Iran in the middle of 2016. In formulating that report the Traffic Committee of the Iranian Building Engineering Order reviewed international experience, including that of Australia. Traffic impact assessment started in Australia in the 196...

spinal cord injury (sci)-induced systemic inflammatory response affects multiple organs outside the spi­nal cord. treatment options for such complications are lacking. valproic acid (vpa) is a histone deacetylase inhibitor, acting directly at the level of gene transcription by inhibiting histone deacetylation and making transcription sites more accessible. acetylation of histones is critical to...

spinal cord injury (sci) is one of the devastating conditions leading to functional and neurological deficits following road traffic accidents. to date, there is no definite treatment for repairing damaged spinal cord tissue. in this regard, cell therapy opens a new window in front of scientists by using different cells such as mesenchymal stem cells, olfactory ensheathing cells, schwann cells,...

The purpose of this study was to investigate traffic flow characteristics at off-ramp junctions in Iranian expressways. The study was conducted on the traffic behavior in isolated off-ramp vicinity of 6-lane expressways. The database consisted of traffic flow and traffic speed information extracted from videotapes. The relationship between diverging traffic flow in the right lane of expressway ...
