Thin films of FLZT with PbTiO3 interlayers have been fabricated by using a sol-gel spin-on process. Three compositions of PLZT, namely 8/65/35,15/40/60 and 18/30/70, have been deposited on platinum and quartz substrates and heat treated at 650°C. All three compositions have crystallized in the perovskite phase. The 8/65/35 composition, which has been investigated in greater detail exhibits a lo...

this study describes the effects of different stocking densities on texture/colour characteristics, protein content /amino acid and lipid content/fatty acid composition of rainbow trout fillet.stocking density was selected 5 (group a), 15 (group b), 25 (group c) kg fish m−3.tukey’s multiple comparison test showed insignificant differences between measured size/weight measurement and condition fac...

biotite samples from different units of boroujerd granitoid complex (bgc) of the sanandaj-sirjan zone, western iran, have beenanalyzed by electron microprobe for major elements. biotite analyses from three units of quartzdiorite, granodiorite and monzograniteof bgc have their own distinct non-overlapping compositional fields in the annite – siderophyllite – phlogopite – eastonitequadrilateral (...

It is important to detect the leakage of the gas to be flammable or poisonous from the cracks in pipes of petroleum refining plants or chemical plants. We examined the application of modular neural networks to the acoustic diagnosis technique for the leakage sound. The modular neural network has the ability to adapt its structure according to the environment. Experiments were performed for an a...

Radiochemical and biochemical methods were used to characterize post-mortem and osteoarthrotic femoral head cartilage. Fixed charge density measurements were correlated with glycosaminoglycan content as estimated by uronic acid and hexosamine analyses. In post-mortem cartilage water content decreased from a maximum at the surface to a minimum in the deep zones. In the osteoarthrotic specimens ...

almabulage complex is located in the north of asadabad city, northwestern hamedan province, in sanandaj-sirjan structural zone. the complex includes several types of low-grade metamorphosed rocks with various protoliths as well as two intrusion having different chemical compositions of synogranite and gabbro. the synogranite intrusion rock has perthite and granophyric co-growths textures and au...

In order to use natural compounds in controlling plant pests and diseases, many researchers in recent years have studied the antifungal effects of essential oils and plant extracts.  The purpose of this study was to investigate the chemical composition and antifungal effects of Echium khuzestanium and marubbium anisodan extracts. After extraction and preparation of di...
