the interaction between proteins and membranes has an important role in biological pro-cesses.we have calculated energies of interaction between melittin and dmpc bilayer in differenttemperatures. we have used the charmm software for md simulation under the canonical (n,v, e) ensemble at different temperatures. the computations have shown that water moleculeshave more penetration into the bilay...

A two-dimensional finite element numerical model has been developed to simulate tide and wave characteristics for Maharashtra coastal region, India. The region was divided into four zones based on water depth and the Chezy’s friction coefficient values for each zone were determined. It was noticed that as the water depth decreases the values of friction coefficient increases. Results are valida...

by using a model of development, called developmental state, which appeared during the history of development in east asia region, the current essay tries to present a review on possibility of iran’s transition to economic development. it is supposed that the ground is prepared for iran’s transition to development through effective state intervention in economy. unlimited access of iran to a ve...

[1] Seismic studies repeatedly image a low‐velocity layer overlying the mantle transition zone in tectonic settings ranging from subduction zones to continental cratons. This layer has been hypothesized to result from the presence of a dense partial melt formed by dehydration melting as relatively wet transition zone material is advected by convection currents into the low‐water‐solubility uppe...

Oil-polluted water is a worldwide problem due to the increasing industrial oily wastewater and the frequent oil spill accidents. Here, we report a novel kind of superhydrophilic hybrid membranes for effective oil/water separation. They were prepared by depositing CaCO3-based mineral coating on PAA-grafted polypropylene microfiltration membranes. The rigid mineral-coating traps abundant water in...

the purpose of this experiment was to evaluate the effects of salinity on growth parameters and intestine morphology of the caspian white fish. experiment were used with four treatments include,(freshwater (0ppt), brackish water (5ppt), abrupt transition of fish to the salt water 10ppt: )the fish were transferred from fresh water to salt water immediately) and gradual transition of fish to the ...

the estimation of velocity distribution plays a major role in the hydrodynamics of vegetated streams or rivers of extensive natural floodplains. the velocity profile in vegetated channels can be divided into three zones: uniform zone which is close to bed with uniform velocity distribution, logarithmic zone which involves the main channel with no vegetive cover and the transition zone that is a...

[1] We perform two 23 year simulations using a regional climate model coupled with the National Center for Atmospheric Research Community Land Model version 3.5 (RegCM‐CLM) to investigate land‐atmosphere coupling in the continental United States during the cold season (October–April) and the role of soil water phase. One simulation allows the land surface to interact freely (RunI) while the oth...

Fluid flow through minerals pores occurs in underground aquifers, oil and shale gas reservoirs. In this work, we explore water and oil flow through silica nanopores. Our objective is to model the displacement of water and oil through a nanopore to mimic the fluid infiltration on geological nanoporous media and the displacement of oil with and without previous contact with water by water floodin...
