During eukaryotic evolution, genome size has increased disproportionately to nuclear volume, necessitating greater degrees of chromatin compaction in higher eukaryotes, which have evolved several mechanisms for genome compaction. However, it is unknown whether histones themselves have evolved to regulate chromatin compaction. Analysis of histone sequences from 160 eukaryotes revealed that the H...

A software for soil compaction analysis (SCAN) has been developed for evaluating the compaction states using the data from the GPS as well as a compactometer attached on the roller. The SCAN is distinguished from other previous software for intelligent compaction (IC) in that it can use the results from various types of GPS positioning methods, and it also has an optimal structure for remotely ...

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...

Two fast algorithms for static test sequence compaction are proposed for sequential circuits. The algorithms are based on the observation that test sequences traverse through a small set of states, and some states are frequently re-visited throughout the application of a test set. Subse-quences that start and end on the same states may be removed if necessary and suucient conditions are met for...

The Upper Jurassic carbonates of the eastern part of the Kopet-Dagh Basin, with thickness of 470 m, are the major gas-bearing reservoir in NE Iran. The objectives of this study are recognition of diagenetic history and estimation of porosity related to dolomitization. Based on field and laboratory study, four carbonate facies associations have been identified at the Mazdavand outcrop. Most of t...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the sealing ability of lateral compaction and tapered single cone gutta-percha techniques in root canals prepared with stainless steel and rotary nickel titanium root canal instruments by fluid filtration method. STUDY DESIGN The root canals were prepared with stainless steel (SS) and nickel titanium (NiTi) instruments. The canals prepared with...

soil compaction as a global problem and a multi-dimensional and complex process involving the interaction of climate, soil mashyn- plant- known to have a significant economic and environmental impacts and to sustainable agriculture is an intractable problem.for in order to assess compaction effect on nitrogen mineralization process in soil in form of factorial completely randomized design with ...

The effect, of varying the proportion of binder starch paste (SP) and the disintegrant sodium starch glycolate (SSG), on the compaction behavior of wet granulated acetaminophen (ACM) formulations using a fully instrumented rotary tablet press, was studied. Wet granulation formulations were prepared using ACM, SP as binder (equal to 2.5%, 5% or 10% starch concentration), SSG as disintegrant (0%,...
