The current study presents the design features and photovoltaic requirements of a floating photovoltaic plant (FPVP) whose purpose is to reduce the evaporation from the surface of a water reservoir while generating electricity. A summary of the energy budget method is also introduced to calculate the rate of evaporation from the water reservoir behind 15-Khordad dam. The top of the reservoi...

This is a relatively short yet intellectually dense and fecund book on literary translation in East Asia, co-authored by three scholars covering respectively China, Japan, Korea. The central li...

Covering models have found many applications in a wide variety of real-world problems; nevertheless, some assumptions of covering models are not realistic enough. Accordingly, a general approach would not be able to answer the needs of encountering varied aspects of real-world considerations. Assumptions like the unavailability of servers, uncertainty, and evaluating more factors at the same ti...

In this note we continue the study of asymptotic invariants of Riemannian tori (e.g. see [BuI] and references there). By asymptotic invariants we mean invariants which do not change under passing to finite covers. In [BuI] we show that the asymptotic volume growth of a Riemannian torus is at least as fast as that of a flat one. One may ask what are the possible values of “asymptotic isoperimetr...

This contribution is based on the monograph entitled “Recent Advances in Thermochemical Conversion of Biomass”, covering both general items as well as the primary processes, like fast pyrolysis, gasification, hydrothermal liquefaction, carbonization and secondary processes, like co-processing of bio-oil in fluidized catalytic cracking (FCC), Fischer-Tropsch synthesis and valorization of lignin ...

If we fix a spanning subgraph H of a graph G, we can define a chromatic number of H with respect to G and we show that it coincides with the chromatic number of a double covering of G with co-support H. We also find a few estimations for the chromatic numbers of H with respect to G.

Hydrological studies were made for 6 months covering monsoon, summer and transition periods in a reservoir, chiefly to understand the plankton productivity. The physical factors like temperature, light, pH and chemical factors like dissolved O , CO , carbonate, bicarbonate, chloride, nitrate, phosphate, sulphate, calcium, 2 2 magnesium, sodium and potassium were estimated.

A graph group, or right-angled Artin group, is a group given by a presentation where the only relators are commutators of the generators. A graph group presentation corresponds in a natural way to a simplicial graph, with each generator corresponding to a vertex, and each commutator relator corresponding to an edge. Suppose that G is a graph group whose corresponding graph is a tree and H is a ...

Suppose S is a surface of genus ≥ 2, f : S → S is a surface homeomorphism isotopic to a pseudo-Anosov map α and suppose S̃ is the universal cover of S and F and A are lifts of f and α respectively. A result of A. Fathi shows there is a semiconjugacy Θ : S̃ → L̄ × L̄ from F to Ā, where L̄ (L̄) is the completion of the R-tree of leaves of the stable (resp. unstable) foliation for A and Ā is the map ind...

Let G be the universal cover of the group of automorphisms of a symmetric tube domain and let P = L N be its Shilov boundary parabolic subgroup. This paper attaches an irreducible unitary representation of G to each of the (finitely many) L-orbits on n*. The Hilbert space of the representation consists of functions on the orbit which are square-integrable with respect to a certain L-equivariant...
