zayanderoud basin is one of the important agricultural areas in country level because of climatic variety and resuscitative water of zayanderoud river. since frost phenomenon especially late spring frost incurs great damages on fruit trees and agricultural products of this region, it is necfessary to study frost in this basin.in this research, the intensity of frost during cold period and sprin...

BACKGROUND Although many studies have examined the effects of heat waves on the excess mortality risk (ER) posed by cardiovascular disease (CVD), scant attention has been paid to the effects of various combinations of differing heat wave temperatures and durations. We investigated such effects in Beijing, a city of over 20 million residents. METHODS A generalized additive model (GAM) was used...

Heat waves are a public health concern in Australia and unprecedented heat waves have been recorded in Adelaide over recent years. The aim of this study was to examine the perception and attitudes towards heat waves in the context of climate change among a group of residents in Adelaide, an Australian city with a temperate climate. A cross-sectional study was conducted in the summer of 2012 amo...

In the current work optimization of double pipe fin-pin heat exchanger has been studied. The effective parameters those are controlling the heat exchanger performance are divided in two categories; geometrical and operating conditions. Using the Brent’s optimization algorithm and handling the thermodynamically design concept, one can minimize entropy generation in different length of heat excha...

electrochemical behavior of the new mono and dinuclear co (iii)  complexes of  the types trans-[pyco((do)(doh)pn )(l)]pf6   and [{py co((do)(doh)pn)}2 (μ-dicyd)] (pf6)2   have been studied in acetonitrile solution.  all the  mono nuclear complexes  show two quasi- reversible reduction couples associate  to co(iii/ii)and  co(ii/i). each of these redox couples split to two  one electron  waves in...
