in recent decade, the new advanced nanofluids, composed from various particles, have attracted the attention of researchers. this class of nanofluids, which can be prepared by suspending several types (two or more than two) of nanoparticles in base fluid, is termed as hybrid nanofluids. in this work, an experimental investigation on the effects of temperature and concentration of nanoparticles ...

establishing satisfactory estimation methods of lake evaporation has been crucial vital for research and management of water resources and ecosystems. determining the accurate method to estimate evaporation from reservoirs in the investigation and management of water resources is very important. hence, in this study eight empirical methods such as; makkink, debruin-kejiman, penman, priestley-ta...

This paper focuses on the empirical autocovariance operator of H-valued periodically correlated processes. It will be demonstrated that the empirical estimator converges to a limit with the same periodicity as the main process. Moreover, the rate of convergence of the empirical autocovariance operator in Hilbert-Schmidt norm is derived.

Several empirical methods for flood flow rate estimation have been presented. In this study,eight new empirical runoff estimation method including Dredge & Burge, Bourges, Inglis, Faning, Hyderabad, Burkli Ziegler, Cramar and Possenti were calculated in Bakhtegan watershed which is located in Fars province. After studying empirical methods for annual flood flow rate estimation and comparing the...

Shear wave velocity is a basic engineering tool required to define dynamic properties of soils. In many instances it may be preferable to determine Vs indirectly by common in-situ tests, such as the Standard Penetration Test. Many empirical correlations based on the Standard Penetration Test are broadly classified as regression techniques. However, no rigorous procedure has been published for c...

results of a seven year (april 1985 to march 1992) prospoective study of bacterial meningitis in 189 infants and children admitted to our center indicate that: 1) tiie gram-negative bacilli, especially klebsiella species, are the leading cause of bacterial meningitis in neonates and young infants (

abstract use of empirical competition models is one of approaches in integrated weed management strategies. in order to investigation of this approach in simulation of yield loss of bean (phaseolus vulgari. l.) caused by jimson weed (datura stramonium l.) interference, an experiment was conducted in national bean research station, in khomein, in 2007. the experiment design was randomized comple...
