Since the cutting tools used in machining process of super alloys are subjected to high cutting forces, accordingly tools life is reduced, therefore improvement in alloys machining and reducing cutting forces to achieve longer tools life is an essential necessity. In this research, the effect of changes in feed rate on cutting forces in machining process of nickel based super alloys is investig...

Background: Quality of work life depends on a combination of variables in the work environment that has an important impact on organizational commitment, work participation, and job performance.

Partly of the articles that have been presented in the In the first article, Biosensor Based on Giant Magnetoresistance Material, Djamal et al. demonstrate a comprehensive review on novel approach in biosensor based on GMR material. Compared with the traditional optical detection that widely used in biomedicine, ...

animals that can estimate their desirable habitat quality are better able to accordingly adapt their life behaviors. the life cycles of parasitoids are so closely adapted as to match their hosts life behavior. among the various host-parasitoid interactions, a peculiarity is the seasonal synchrony between host and parasitoid activity. the foraging and oviposition behaviors of lysiphlebus fabarum...

providing a high-quality service for transmission and playing real-time voice conversations (voice streaming) over wireless ad-hoc networks is no mean feat. buffering together with adjusting the playout time of the packets is a receiver-side solution to overcome this challenge. in this paper, a new adaptive playout adjustment algorithm is proposed to stream the voice conversations over wireless...

F oraminifers are single-celled, testate protists with a rich geologic record spanning at least 500 million years of Earth’s most recent history. Their abundance, diversity, and diagnostic distribution patterns make them very useful to Earth scientists for purposes of relative age determination, correlation from one locality to another, and paleoenvironmental reconstructions. Benthic foraminife...

in this article, it has been tried to analyze the mental satisfaction of the quality of life in different regions in terms of objective development. for this purpose, districts no. 3, 6, and 9 of mashhad city which through the measures of education, income, and employment were respectively among the deprived, the average, and the privileged regions were selected as the case study areas. moreove...

How do young children decide to trust testimony that contradicts their initial beliefs? The current study examined whether children rely on cues to informant credibility (i.e., history of accuracy) to determine if they would endorse an unexpected label from an informant. Threeand 4-year-olds (N = 60) saw a picture of a hybrid artifact that consisted of features of two typical familiar artifacts...
