introduction safflower is native to iran, and is cultivated for high adaptability, low water requirement, resistance to drought and useful unsaturated fatty acid (ashri et al., 1977). identification of effective agronomic traits and relationship between them are important aims under water stress conditions. among these characters, grain yield is the most important trait that is genetically poly...

The most effective method to reduce CO2 gas emission from the steam power plant is to improve its performance by elevating the steam temperature to more than 700 ◦C. For this, it is necessary to develop applicable materials at high temperatures. Ni-based Alloy 617 and 12Cr steel are used in steam power plants, due to their remarkable mechanical properties, high corrosion resistance, and creep s...

High-pressure torsion (HPT) is a metal processing method in which the sample is subjected to a very high plastic shear deformation. This process can produce exceptional levels of grain refinement, and provides a corresponding improvement in mechanical properties. To investigate the stress and strain distribution due to HPT process finite element simulation were conducted to investigate effectiv...

purpose: the main purpose of this study is to identify the relationship between techno-stress and the organizational commitment of librarians in libraries of governmental universities of tabriz.methodology: the analytical survey has been used in this study and the population includes all librarians in governmental universities of tabriz. questionnaires of techno-stress designed by ragu-nathan e...

in order to evaluate the effects of biofertilizer on soybean (glycine max l.) seed vigor that produced under water deficit condition and related traits, an experiment was conducted in a factorial layout based of complete randomized block design with four replications at the research greenhouse of aboureihan campus- tehran university, iran. experimental treatments were include biofertilizer (see...

Abstract Eleven wheat cultivars were evaluated at 10-day intervals, beginning from anthesis, under irrigated and drought stress conditions during 2006-2007. The effects of irrigation, genotype and date of harvest were significant for most of the studied characters. Water deficit decreased pre-and post-anthesis assimilation rate, grain weight per spike, grain number per spike and 1000 grain wei...

the hot compression tests were carried on x45crniw189 valve steel (x45) in the temperature rangeof 1000– 1200 °c and the strain rate range of 0.004 – 0.5 s-1 in order to study the high temperaturesoftening behavior of this steel. for the exact prediction of flow stress, the effective stress-effectivestrain curves were obtained from experiments under various conditions. on the basis of experimen...

Turbine-generator shafts are often subjected to a complex transient torsional loading. Such transient torques may initiate and propagate a circumferential crack in the shafts. Mode III crack growth in turbo-generator shafts often results in a fracture surface morphology resembling a factory roof. The interaction of the mutual fracture surfaces results in a pressure and a frictional stress field...
