determining landslide size could be a difficult and expensive task. in this research, size parameters of 142 landslides recognized in tajan river basin, northern iran, have been assessed. the dataset was prepared through the extensive field surveys and using the satellite imagery available via google earth. dependence between landslides area (a-m2), volume (v-m3), and depth (d-m) was appointed ...

Introduction: The physiological process of sternum surgical fracture consolidation in patients undergoing cardiac surgery could be prolonged by the invasion of gram-positive saprophytic bacteria which perpetuates the local inflammatory process despite the standardized aseptic and antiseptic measures in cardiac surgery. In this regard, the topical application of Vancomycin can e...

Accurate predictions of the amount and the rate of long- term deformation of reinforced soils under an applied load are important key issue in geotechnical engineering, in which the deformation of soil develops with time at a state of constant effective stress. Since geosynthetic is generally considered creep sensitive therefore, evaluation of creep behavior of geosynthetic reinforced soil (GRS...

objective: the goal of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of intraperitoneal (jp) cisplatin as consolidation treatment, in epithelial ovarian cancer patients with pathologically negative surgical reassessment, following first-line platinum-based chemotherapy. methods: this study included 22 patients with figo stage (iic- iv) epithelial ovarian cancer (eoc) which had no evidence of disease a...

The vacuum preloading is an effective method which is widely used in ground treatment. In consolidation analysis, the soil around prefabricated vertical drain (PVD) is traditionally divided into smear zone and undisturbed zone, both with constant permeability. In reality, the permeability of soil changes continuously within the smear zone. In this study, the horizontal permeability coefficient ...

one of the main goals of designing urban space is that the urban public spaces provide a place for all age, employment and gender groups. designing an effective model for consolidation and the presence of actors as active citizens is not possible without identifying features and their needs. therefore, this study is conducted to evaluate the adaptation of urmia urban spaces to the needs of wome...

background: testosterone and its metabolites have important roles in learning and memory. the current study has conducted to assess the effect of pre-training, post-training and pre-probe trial intrahippocampal ca1 administration of 3 alpha-anderostanediol (one of the metabolites of testosterone) and indomethacin (as 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase enzyme blocker) on acquisition, consolida...

The aim of this paper is to study the effect organic matter (OM) content on effectiveness soil stabilization process using biopolymer xanthan gum. Five different artificial soils with an in range 1.5 7.7% are subjected unconfined compressive strength (UCS) and oedometer tests evaluate their strength, stiffness compressibility, respectively. These results complemented by analysis SEM images. fro...
