in order to study of sodium nitroprusside(snp) application effect on growth indices and water use efficiency of kidney beans cultivars(akhtar and derakhshan) under water deficit stress, an experiment was conducted in split factorial based in randomized complete block design with three replications in bu-ali sina university research field at 2012. water stress treatments included vegetative stre...

Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of metals is an issue of major concern in engineering since this phenomenon causes many catastrophic failures of structural components in aggressive environments. SCC is even more harmful under cathodic conditions promoting the phenomenon known as hydrogen assisted cracking (HAC), hydrogen assisted fracture (HAF) or hydrogen embrittlement (HE). A common way to as...

Field-induced static and dynamic yield stresses are explored for magnetorheological (MR) suspensions in an aging, yield stress matrix fluid composed of an aqueous dispersion of Laponite clay. Using a custom-built magnetorheometry fixture, the MR response is studied for magnetic field strengths up to 1 T and magnetic particle concentrations up to 30 v%. The yield stress of the matrix fluid, whic...

Shape deformation of the thin, area non-compressible spherical shell separating two differ­ ent media, subjected to an external, alternating, homogeneous electric field is considered. The function relating shape deformation of the shell to the shear stress in its plane is presented. Shear stress develops as a result of Maxwell stress acting on both shell surfaces. All media are considered as lo...

Background: The nursing students should acquire practical and theoretical competence required for the patients' care during their 4 years of education. This involves proper use of time. The purpose of this study was to investigate how nursing students manage their time despite the academic difficulties and obstacles. Methods: This qualitative study was carried out through grounded theory met...

This paper uses two-dimensional Finite Element Method (FEM) numerical modeling to analyze the orientation of maximum horizontal tensional stress of the Barapukuria coal basin in Bangladesh. An elastic plane stress model incorporating elastic rock physical properties for the coal basin area was used consisting of 2916 elements with a network of 1540 nodes. The stress field at any point of the mo...

A number of hypotheses about the effects of presleep stress on dream recall among field-dependent and field-independent subjects were tested to explore the role of repression and of dream affect in dream recall. The effect of presleep stress was to increase arousal during rapid eye movement sleep and affect in dream reports. The data also suggest that the most affectful dreams are best recalled...
