abstract the purpose of this paper is estimation of the effective factors on tea supply in gilan province by using time series data during 1360-1390 in the form of nerlove model. according to the results, explanatory variables of the model could describe 97 percent of dependent variable (product supply) changes. the results show that the guaranteed price index of green tea leaf with elasticity ...

In recent years, the diagnostic confidence of B-mode ultrasound has been strengthened by innovations including tissue Doppler techniques and imaging of tissue elasticity. Elasticity is the ratio of the strain (pressure) required to induce relative elongation or distention (Figure 1). The intrinsic elasticity of biological tissue is altered by physiologic aging and pathologic processes such as i...

Material property has great importance in deformable body simulation and medical robotics. The elasticity parameters, such as Young's modulus of the deformable bodies, are important to make realistic animations. Further in medical applications the (recovered) elasticity parameters can assist surgeons to perform better pre-op surgical planning and enable medical robots to carry out personalized ...

Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) is a promising method for health evaluation and disease diagnosis. It makes use of elastic waves as a virtual probe to quantify soft tissue elasticity. The wave actuator, imaging modality and elasticity interpreter are all essential components for an MRE system. Efforts have been made to develop more effective actuating mechanisms, imaging protocols and rec...

BACKGROUND We previously reported the arterial elasticity value we measured to reflect the characteristic features of vessel walls, and to possibly be useful for detecting early stage atherosclerosis in type 2 diabetes. Obesity, especially visceral adiposity, is well known to play a crucial role in the development of metabolic disorders and atherosclerosis. To assess whether arterial elasticity...

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to estimate the mechanical properties (elasticity) of normal and cancer prostate tissues and to develop a tissue elasticity map for the diagnosis and localization of prostate cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 735 sites from 35 radical prostatectomy specimens were used in the experiments using a robotic palpation system, and the elasticities of the spec...

As an important growth point of Qinghai’s economic development, tourism has become increasingly prominent in its contribution to the development national economy and one most dynamic industries province. Based on relevant data from 2001 2018, this paper explores influencing factors revenue Qinghai Province by constructing error correction model combining Granger causality test. The research res...

The price transmission from the international market to the domestic market of tunas was investigated in the present research. For this purpose, the elasticity of substitution between tuna imports with goods produced in Iran (Armington Elasticity) was calculated. Armington elasticity reflects a degree of substitution between commodities produced domestically and those produced abroad. A greater...
