Courtyard geometry plays an important role in the amount of received solar radiation, also heating and cooling energy consumption of buildings. Considering this geometry for finding its proper proportion and orientation is significant to increase indoor thermal comfort, and as a result reduce the amount of energy consumption. This paper mainly focuses on a dormitory courtyard in Yazd and invest...

for a simple digraph $g$ of order $n$ with vertex set${v_1,v_2,ldots, v_n}$, let $d_i^+$ and $d_i^-$ denote theout-degree and in-degree of a vertex $v_i$ in $g$, respectively. let$d^+(g)=diag(d_1^+,d_2^+,ldots,d_n^+)$ and$d^-(g)=diag(d_1^-,d_2^-,ldots,d_n^-)$. in this paper we introduce$widetilde{sl}(g)=widetilde{d}(g)-s(g)$ to be a new kind of skewlaplacian matrix of $g$, where $widetilde{d}(g...

One of the factors which are usually difficult to be measured in mills is the grindability and distribution of feed under real situation and in a short time. In the condition of achieving a fast and convenient way to determine these parameters, the proper relationship between energy, hardness and particle size distribution can be obtained. Feed hardness is one of the most important factors in g...

Objective: Drying is one of the most important post-harvesting processes in agriculture. Drying method and also drying time have an important effect on the amount of energy required. In this study analysis of energy consumption for drying corn in dryer reservoir with flow of warm air and the effect of the temperature and height of product layer on the amount of energy consumption per unit mass ...

Background: Given the importance of scattered and low doses in secondary cancer caused by radiation treatment, the point dose of critical organs, which were not subjected to radiation treatment in breast cancer radiotherapy, was measured.Objective: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the peripheral dose in two techniques of breast cancer radiotherapy with two energies. Methods: Eight diff...

The newly described yeast endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRT) protein increased sodium tolerance-1 (Ist1p) binds the late-acting ESCRT proteins Did2p/charged MVB protein (CHMP) 1 and Vps4p and exhibits synthetic vacuolar protein sorting defects when combined with mutations in the Vta1p/LIP5-Vps60p/CHMP5 complex. Here, we report that human IST1 also functions in the ESCRT ...

Viewing linguistic modelling as annotation of a variety of phenomena becomes an increasingly popular perspective in natural language processing and grammar engineering, and it changes the way grammar modularity is understood nowadays. In this contribution we shall concentrate on a generalisation of the notion of dependency in combination with a rich typology of observable relationships holding ...
