because of participation in many aspects of human life, and due to oxidation-sensitive characteristics of dopamine (da) and arachidonoyl dopamine (aa-da), the necessity of biocompatible carrier to keep them against oxidation is of importance. in this work, we explored the putative binding sites of da and aa-da to -lactoglobulin (blg) as potent carrier. docking results identified the binding si...

friction welding is widely used in various industries. in friction welding, heat is generated by conversion of mechanical energy into thermal energy at the interface the work pieces during pin rotation under pressure. a three-dimensional thermo mechanical simulation of friction stir welding (fsw) processes is carried out for aluminium alloys of 6061and 7050 where the simulation results are comp...

discrete element method (dem) is extensively used for mathematical modeling and simulating the behavior of discrete discs and discrete spheres in two and three dimensional space, respectively. prediction of particles flow regime, power draw and kinetic energy for a laboratory or an industrial mill is possible by dem simulation. in this article, a new approach was used to assess the main paramet...

the internal structure of a molecule can be presented in terms of intra-molecular (i.e., inter atomic)and inter-molecular energies such as van der waals, bond and bending, torsion, and inversion energy.in this study, changes in molecular energies of individual asphalt components are evaluated as afunction of physical aging factors. the factors for physical aging such as temperature and pressure...

The Aldo Leopold Legacy Center is designed to be a net-zero energy building. This paper explains how simulation modelling was integrated into the design process to achieve the design goals. Simulation was used to evaluate the building shell, including natural ventilation potential as well as evaluate individual HVAC components. The simulation model was also used to size HVAC equipment and evalu...

In this paper, the performance of a CNT-JLTFET under different values of torsional strains of 0, 3, and 5 degrees has been investigated. Simulation has been carried out using non-equilibrium Green’s function (NEGF) formalism in the mode-space approach and in the ballistic limit. The simulation results indicate that, under torsional strain, an increase occurs in the energy band-gap, and thus the...

Using Photovoltaic systems is gradually expanded by increasing energy demand. Abundance and availability of this energy, has turned to one of the most important sources of renewable energy. Unfortunately, photovoltaic systems have two big problems: first, those have very low energy conversion efficiency (in act between 12 and 42 percent under certain circumstances). Second, the power produced b...
