—Understanding sampling effectiveness is critical to gear selection and the determination of larval fish dynamics. We evaluated bow-mounted push nets for collecting larval fish across reservoirs and habitats and compared them with traditional tow nets. By means of a pushed 0.5-m-diameter conical net and towed 0.5-m-diameter and 0.75-m-diameter conical nets, ichthyoplankton samples were taken du...

the aim of this research is to scrutinize the effects of democratic regional organizations on democratization. we will scrutinize regional organizations regardless of their functional time and space. but attending the democratic feature that was regarded, we will concentrate mainly on the last three decades. after studying democratization process and represent subjects on democratic regional or...

SiC-fibers are subjected to a predictable premature failure, consequence of slow crack growth mechanism. This has chiefly been studied through static fatigue testing multifilament tows. The discrepancy existing between experimental results, broadly dispersed, and the bundle theory (solely considering filament strength distribution) interpreted by discrete stochastic phenomena. In this work, unc...

Employing recent results of M. Ali Khan we provide an infinitedimensional version of the Fatou Lemma, which includes as a special case the result of Khan and Majumdar [15].

Biometric-based authentication systems are widely deployed for person identification. Recently, an improved scheme for flexible biometrics remote user authentication was proposed by Khan and Zhang. In this paper, we demonstrate that Khan-Zhang’s scheme is still vulnerable to the following two attacks: (1) It is insecure to parallel session attack in which an adversary without knowing a legal us...

This paper describes finite element analysis of compaction for dry textiles during preform manufacture. The models are generated using procedures encompassed in our TexGen textile modeling schema. Meshing and material property allocations are performed automatically, including definition of material orientations for each of the elements. Tow elements are modeled using a transverse isotropic mod...
