The existing Data Envelopment Analysis models for evaluating the relative eciency of a set of decision making units by using various inputs to produce various outputs are limited to crisp data in crisp production possibility set. In this paper, rst of all the production possibility set is extended to the fuzzy production possibility set by extension principle in constant return to scale, and th...

We formulate and study an extension of gerbe duality to relative Gromov-Witten theory.

iran is well known for having countless historical and instrumental records of tectonic events. shahriary catchment, as a study area, is part of the zagros collision seismic province. this research aimed to introduce a new method which is useful in identifying the relative active tectonic events of an area. the research method was designed in order to calculate the relative active tectonic inde...

An extension L/K of skew fields is called a leftpolynomialextension with polynomial generator 0 if it has a left basis of the form 1, i3, ti’, , Bnm’ for some n. This notion of left polynomial extension is a generalisation of the notion of pseudo-linear extension, known from literature. In this paper we show that any polynomial which is the minimal polynomial over K of some element in an extens...

The research population included researchers, extension agents and contact farmers of the study area and based on this population numbers, the sa...

introduction: peripheral odontogenic tumors are rare and there is no valid information of the frequency of them in the literature. this study aims to obtain the frequency of these tumors. materials and methods: the files of oral and maxillofacial pathology (microscopic reports and slides), faculty of dentistry, shahid beheshti university of medical sciences served as the source of the material ...

BACKGROUND The indications for elective bilateral central node dissection for patients with unilateral papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) who are clinically node negative are still not verified. We investigated the predictive factors of lymph node metastasis and formulated guidelines for surgical extent. METHODS From 2004 to 2009, 325 patients diagnosed with unilateral PTC who had undergone to...

Core muscle imbalances and weak trunk strength are relevant for injury prevention and performance. Information regarding core strength requirements and ideal flexion/extension ratios in alpine skiing is limited. We aimed to compare trunk strength capacities in elite alpine skiers with those of a matched control group. The concentric maximal trunk flexion and extension of 109 elite skiers and 47...

PURPOSE To demonstrate the impact of inconsistent bite line positioning during pre and post lateral cervical radiographic examinations and to suggest certain additional imaging studies if the bite line cannot be consistently maintained. METHODS Radiographic measurements of relative flexion and extension in the atlantal-occipital (AO) and atlantal-axial (AA) joints were taken from neutral late...
