toxoplasmosis is one of the most common parasitic diseases worldwide. although estimated that one third of the world's population are infected with toxoplasma gondii , but the most common form of the disease is latent (asymptomatic). on the other hand, recent findings indicated that la­tent toxoplasmosis is not only unsafe for human, but also may play various roles in the etiol­ogy of different...

the genetic parameters and (co) variance components of body weight at birth (bw), weaning (ww) and six months of age (bw6) and average daily gain (adg) pre and post-weaning of afshari sheep were estimated using restricted maximum likelihood (reml) methodology and animal model implemented in dfreml software. the likelihood ratio test (lrt) was used to compare the models. year of birth, age of mo...

Geometric programming is efficient tool for solving a variety of nonlinear optimizationproblems. Geometric programming is generalized for solving engineering design. However,Now Geometric programming is powerful tool for optimization problems where decisionvariables have exponential form.The geometric programming method has been applied with known parameters. However,the observed values of the ...

This paper is on the elasto-plastic analysis of plane stress problems. A five-parameter yield surface is presented. This yield criterion uses associate flow along with mixed hardening rule. The analytical formulations are written and related computer program for non-linear analysis is prepared. Finally, based on the formulations, numerical examples are solved.

ramadan fasting is prescribed by quran for every able‐bodied, adult muslim and is considered an obligatory act of worship. during ramadan, the majority of muslims eat two major meals- one before dawn (sahar) and another immediately after the sunset (iftar). islamic fasting, due to its particular nature, may cause metabolic and hormonal changes in the body, which are different from those in regu...
