a knowledge of rainfall distribution over a finite area is needed for small bydraulic structures design. hydrologists have always been concerned about depth- area- duration (dad) for a specific storm in a watershed. an intense storm occurred on june 6, 1992 which claimed some lives in parts of mashhad, khorasan province, iran. data of rainfall depth at 29 raingauge stations around the city and ...

Sequential testing procedures are developed for the parameters of generalized life distributions. Robustness of the testing procedures is studied, when the distribution under consideration has undergone a change. In order to apply Newton-Raphson method for the purpose of plotting the operating characteristic (OC) and average sample number (ASN) functions, a method of choosing the initial values...

telomerase and systems controlling their activity have been of great attention. there are controversies regarding the role of the alternative splicing forms of the human telomerase reverse transcriptase (htert), the catalytic subunit of telomerase. therefore, the correlation between telomerase enzyme activity, the abundance of alternatively spliced variants of htert and doubling time of a serie...

Secular dynamics inside MMRs plays an essential role in governing the dynamical structure of trans-Neptunian region and sculpting orbital distribution objects (TNOs). In this study, semi-analytical developments are made to explore von Zeipel-Lidov-Kozai (ZLK) resonance mean motion resonances (MMRs). To end, a semi-secular model is formulated by averaging theory then single-degree-of-freedom int...

This work is a primary achievement in studying the CO2 and N2–oil systems. To predict gas-liquid relative permeability curves, a Shan-Chen type multicomponent multiphase lattice Boltzmann model for two-phase flow through 2D porous media is developed. Periodic and bounce back boundary conditions are applied to the model with the Guo scheme for the external body force (i.e.,...
