Rotational behavior induced by electrical stimulation of ascending dopamine neurons is used as a behavioral model to investigate gender and hormonal influences on extra-h)pothalamic doparmne systems. Steroid hormones influence the metabolism of many dopaminergic drugs, and therefore ihis approach avoids the complications inherent in drug-induced behavior models of dopamine activity. We found th...

The temperature dependences of the dielectric spectra Ag 2 S nanocrystallites synthesized inside channels nanoporous glasses NPG-17 with an average diameter filamentous pores 17 nm are studied. macroscopic mechanism for occurrence frequency dependence electrical response a structure + is proposed. Formation model based superionic phase transition in fixed glass discussed. Keywords: silver sulfi...

in tunisia, kalâat el andalous irrigated district is one of the most affected areas by salinization. the objective of this study was to predict the root zone salinity (over 10 years) in this area using the saltmod simulation model for subsurface drainage system. saltmod is based on water balance, salt balance model, and seasonal agronomic aspects. in the pilot area, irrigated vegetables crops s...

whereas in electrical discharge machining (edm) the heat flux entering the workpiece is extremely high, the fourier heat conduction model may fails. this article reports on determination of temperature distribution in the workpiece due to edm using non-fourier heat conduction model. equations are solved by deriving the numerical solution. the temperature layers and profiles of sample calculatio...

[1] Constraints on bulk conductivity from magnetotelluric measurements and petrological analyses of late Quaternary peridotite xenoliths from the southern Sierra Nevada allow evaluation of models commonly used to relate electrical conductivity to the physical and chemical state of the upper mantle. In these models, two conductive melts (basalt and sulfide) are embedded in a resistive matrix. Bo...

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive technique used to treat some kinds of cancer. Theoretical models can provide information about the biophysics of RFA quickly and cheaply, but their realism is very important. A great influential factor in this realism is the use of mathematical functions to model the temperature-dependence of tissue thermal (k) and electrical (s) conductivit...

The aim of this study was to identify various sulfidic mineralized zones in the Ghare-Tappeh Cu deposit (NW Iran) based on geo-electrical data including induced polarization (IP) and resistivity (RS) using the concentration-volume (C-V) and number-size (N-S) fractal models. The fractal models were used to separate high and moderate sulfidic zones from low sulfidic zones and barren wall rocks. B...
