The Pigeonhole Principle (PHP) has been one of the most appealing methods of solving combinatorial optimization problems. Variations of the Pigeonhole Principle, sometimes called the “Hidden” Pigeonhole Principle (HPHP), are even more powerful and often produce the most elegant solutions to nontrivial problems. However, some Operations Research approaches, such as the Linear Programming Relaxat...

In this paper, distributed parameter process systems behavior is studied in frequency domain. Based on the dominant gain concept that is developed for such studies, a method is presented to control distributed parameter process systems. By using dominant gain concept, the location of open loop zeros, resulted from the time delay parameter in the process model, were changed from the right half p...

Iranian Traditional Medicine (ITM) manuscripts contain prescriptions that have long been used for healing of wounds. The present study evaluates the healing effect of a poly herbal paste (PHP), retrieved from ITM sources, containing Aloe vera, Commiphora myrrha and Boswellia carteri using rat excision wound model. Excision wounds were induced in six groups consisting of six rats each. Group 1 r...

Web applications are increasingly popular victims of security attacks. Injection attacks, such as Cross Site Scripting or SQL Injection, are a persistent problem. Even though developers are aware of them, the suggested best practices for protection are error prone: unless all user input is consistently filtered, any application may be vulnerable. When hosting web applications, administrators fa...

Rigid polyurethane (PUR) foam is one of the most important insulating materials used today in the construction industry and is the main insulation material used in the global appliances industry. This study developed rice straw fiber-filled PUF (RPUF) and wheat straw fiber-filled PUF (WPUF) and explored the morphology, sound absorption properties, heat transfer, and compressive strength of the ...

This paper presents an implementation of open loop and closed loop control of Quadratic boost converter using PID controller.  Quadratic boost converter consists of boost converter and fly back converter driven by a single switch. Quadratic boost converter QBC is designed especially for regulating the DC interface between various micro sources and dc-ac inverter to electricity grid. Quadratic b...

PHP allows the names of variables, classes, functions, methods, and properties to be given dynamically, as expressions that, when evaluated, return an identifier as a string. While this provides greater flexibility for programmers, it also makes PHP programs harder to precisely analyze and understand. In this paper we present a number of patterns designed to recognize idiomatic uses of these fe...

This paper focuses on the effects of closed- control on the calculation of the dynamic load carrying capacity (DLCC) for mobile-base flexible-link manipulators. In previously proposed methods in the literature of DLCC calculation in flexible robots, an open-loop control scheme is assumed, whereas in reality, robot control is achieved via closed loop approaches which could render the calculated ...

This paper takes a detailed look at PHP, an open source server-side scripting language, and compares it to its heavily marketed counterpart ASP.NET. It explores various concepts which are pertinent to choosing programming platforms and outlines the advantages of each language over the other. A sample application called “Personal Media Center” is developed in PHP to illustrate these concepts and...

This paper considers the usage of design patterns in PHP language for the documents set model. The author discusses briefly to design patterns and one of the open web documents aggregation model. Some of new features on PHP and its consequences are also presented. The author states that usage of free, powerful development tools and standard problem solving in a new context gives the flexible an...
