background: the purpose of the present study was to evaluate the inequality of geographical distribution of non-cardiac intensive care beds in iran using the gini coefficient. methods: the population information of iran's provinces in 2006 was obtained from the statistical center of iran and the number of non-cardiac intensive care beds (including icu, posticu and nicu beds) in all provinces wa...

elastic energy of seismic wave is lost through propagation into the earth. various factors affect seismic energy. some of them are frequency independent and recovered in processing steps. but other factors such as intrinsic absorption of medium are frequency dependent and cannot be recovered by processing methods. lost energy caused by these factors is called attenuation. there are various meth...

We consider a sequence of Dirichlet problems in varying domains (or, more generally, of relaxed Dirichlet problems involving measures in M 0 (Ω)) for second order linear elliptic operators in divergence form with varying matrices of coefficients. When the matrices H -converge to a matrix A , we prove that there exist a subsequence and a measure μ in M 0 (Ω) such that the limit problem is the re...
