According to recent Studies, about 60 percent of surface waters and 57 Percent ground waters are located in snowy zones in Iran. In most areas of northern hemisphere and alpine environment areas, snow melt lead to the maximum instantaneous flow rate and is an important part of annual discharge. The present study investigated the effect of snowmelt on the surface waters and ground waters in B...

OBJECTIVE To determine bias due to loss of participants (attrition bias) in a prospective cohort study. DESIGN A multi-centre prospective cohort study. SUBJECTS A total of 225 individuals with a spinal cord injury from 8 Dutch rehabilitation centres. METHODS Participants were considered non-participants when no information was collected at the measurement one year after discharge from inp...

Time- and frequency-domain measures of discharge times for pairs of motor units are used to infer the proportion of common synaptic input received by motor neurons. The physiological mechanisms that can produce the experimentally observed peaks in the cross-correlation histogram and the coherence spectrum are uncertain. The present study used a computational model to impose synchronization on t...

By using a multispecies fluid model, the tunability and controllability of plasma parameters such as distributions electron density, energy, ion electric field in microdielectric barrier discharge (DBD) with charge injector electrode driven by negatively polarized nanosecond pulsed voltage superimposed on positive DC bias are investigated. To this end, effects changing features like pulse rise ...
