this study simulates the temperature field and temperature stress of concrete face slabs, considering the cold waves that occur during construction as well as the contact friction between the face slabs and the cushion layer. the results show that when a cold wave occurs during construction, the surface and center temperature of the face slabs continually drop with the outside air temperature, ...

abstract in order to estimate the reference evapotranspiration different equation is used. validity of each methods depends upon the climate and the parameters which are used in these equations. therefore it is necessary to calibrate these methods for any specific area and for any desired frequency. in this study common temperature and radiation based methods were used for calculating crop evap...

  In this paper the numerical analysis of flow and time dependent heat transfer of micro-tube conveying nanofluid in laminar flow is investigated. In this study, convection heat transfer of nanofluid and base fluid and transient analysis for time-varying heat flux for time step of 0.0001 second are elucidated. It is observed that the pumping power of nanofluid flowing and the maximum temperatur...

Organisms in natural environments experience diel temperature fluctuations, including sporadic extreme conditions, rather than constant temperatures. Studies based mainly on model organisms have tended to focus on responses to average temperatures or short-term heat stress, which overlooks the potential impact of daily fluctuations, including stressful daytime periods and milder night-time peri...

analysis of the spatial and temporal trends of precipitation and temperature are pertinent for future development and sustainable management of water resources in a given region. in this paper, we present a study concerning the climatic behavior of two principal observables variables, viz. monthly temperature (maximum and minimum) and mean precipitations obtained from the measurements carried o...

with respect to wide distribution of a. sieberi besser in iran, various studies have been done on its habitats and different ecological properties have been referred as effective factors in establishment of this species. in this research, we tried to study the ecological range of a. sieberi and its relationship with vegetative characteristics. therefore, climate properties including annual prec...

A nano/ultra-fine grain Al-0.2wt% Zr alloy was produced by accumulated roll bonding (ARB) processafter 10 cycles. The fraction of high angle grain boundaries increased from 8% to 65.4% during 10passes during ARB process. This alloy was subjected to tensile test at different temperatures (523,573and 623 K) and strain rates (0.1 and 0.01 s-1). The optimum condition of temperature and strain rate ...

in this study, we aimed to reconstruct the mean, maximum mean and ‎minimum mean temperature from the chronology of tree rings width of two ‎quercus persica sites in dena region, where efficient climatic data have a ‎short period (1982-2011). the duration of common chronology of the sites ‎is 131 years (1881-2011).considering the strong correlation between ‎climatic data and growth rin...
