strategic environmental assessment can be viewed as a process to integrate the concept ofsustainable development into planning. in this context, sea can be regarded as a method that regulates theplanning process to a state of sustainable development. however, to reach that goal it is necessary to achieve full integration of planning and the sea process.therefore this paper considers the integra...

results the findings showed that the program was used in 380 health houses in 10 cities of iran. the total number of inhabitants covered by the program were 5555258, and 8245 of them were substance abusers. the cases were registered and their data were reported by the managers. the function of health houses, health centers, and district health centers were assessed by considering the number of ...

the synthesis of heat integrated multi-component distillation systems is complex due to its huge search space for structural combination and optimization computation. to provide a systematic approach and tools for the synthesis design of distillation systems, a new method for modeling heat integrated columns is presented, and the operating cost objective function is minimized by improved harmon...

introduction: the integration of behavioral and social sciences (bss) into the curriculum of medical students in order to equip them with the necessary knowledge, skills and attitudes is an essential issue, emphasized in many researches. our aim is to investigate the barriers to integrate bss into the general medicine curriculum as well as the recommended strategies to overcome such barriers th...

Integration of the HIV-1 cDNA into the human genome is catalyzed by the viral integrase (IN) protein. Several studies have shown the importance of cellular cofactors that interact with integrase and affect viral integration and infectivity. In this study, we produced a stable complex between HIV-1 integrase, viral U5 DNA, the cellular cofactor LEDGF/p75 and the integrase binding domain of INI1 ...

The evolution of globular clusters driven by two-body relaxation is investigated by means of numerical integration of the two-dimensional Fokker-Planck equation in energy–angular momentum space. The twodimensional Fokker-Planck equation allows the development of velocity anisotropy. We include a spectrum of stellar masses in this paper. The radial anisotropy develops, that is, the radial veloci...

Translational science research development requires life sciences researchers to update their concept on systems integration and data integration. The RESTful API has proven to be very useful in integrating the massive amount of data and tools. This work presents an approach for biological systems analysis based on the semantic web and RESTful API. The integration of this approach in the BioExt...

The errors inherent in the fitting and integration of the pseudo-Gaussian ion peaks in Aerodyne high-resolution aerosol mass spectrometers (HR-AMSs) have not been previously addressed as a source of imprecision for these or similar instruments. This manuscript evaluates the significance of this imprecision and proposes a method for their estimation in routine data analysis. In the first part of...

6 It is the purpose of this short article to analyze mass conservation in high-order rigorous 7 remapping schemes, which contrary to flux-based methods, relies on elaborate integral con8 straints over overlap areas and reconstruction functions. For applications on the sphere these 9 integral constraints may be violated primarily due to inexact or ill-conditioned integration 10 and we propose a ...

micropolar plasticity provides the capability to carry out post-failure simulations of geo-structures due to microstructural considerations and embedded length scale in its formulation. an essential part of the numerical implementation of a micropolar plasticity model is the integration of the rate constitutive equations. efficiency and robustness of the implementation hinge on the type of inte...
