making an investigation into the traditional architecture found in iran’s kavir, one can see an architecture that has emerged by merely changing the form of the face of the earth; this [complex] architecture is nothing but an intellectual use of simple land and water which simultaneously accords with the islamic environmental principles [ieps]. in this article, following a descriptive analysis ...

We consider a viscous fluid of finite depth below the air, occupying a threedimensional domain bounded below by a fixed solid boundary and above by a free moving boundary. The fluid dynamics are governed by the gravity-driven incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, and the effect of surface tension is neglected on the free surface. The long time behavior of solutions near equilibrium has been a...

theory is a base for all scientific disciplines. theorizing is an important branch in architecture too. there are a little reference that tries to define theory and show the differences between theory in architecture and theory in other disciplines. this article aimed to show the characteristics of architectural theory. at first we try to review different books and articles which are written on...

From 60 decade  sustainability issues  and sustainable developing  have opened a way in scientific meetings associated with  environment and urbanization and architecture. Sustainability goals are improving of environment situation , less pollution  and at least interference on  land and interaction of  natural and artificial environment , that most of these cases attracted attention in archite...

Mohammad-Karim Pirnia, one of the most prominent scholars of the history of Iranian architecture, has recorded two major achievements: the principles of Iranian architecture and the stylistics of Iranian architecture. In this article we will discuss his suggested principles for Iranian architecture. For this purpose, we will first show how his five principles have evolved and completed th...

The cell surface of Trypanosoma brucei, like many protistan blood parasites, is crucial for mediating host-parasite interactions and is instrumental to the initiation, maintenance and severity of infection. Previous comparisons with the related trypanosomatid parasites T. cruzi and Leishmania major suggest that the cell-surface proteome of T. brucei is largely taxon-specific. Here we compare ge...

abstract man has a social life and during his life he establishes the most important social institution which is known as a family. this social institution, the family, evokes the architecture of a house. the formation of the house as a family behavioral setting is related to the social behavior, also culture and ethics of the members of the family. more than 90% of the buildings in most tradit...

Microfluidic devices have applications in chemical analysis, biomedical devices and ink-jets. An integrated microfluidic system incorporates electrical signals on-chip. Such electro-microfluidic devices require fluidic and electrical connection to larger packages. Therefore electrical and fluidic packaging of electro-microfluidic devices is key to the development of integrated microfluidic syst...

a comparative study of the corresponding styles of western and iranian modern architecture has hardly ever been carried out in detail. this paper aims to sketch out an outline for such an investigation and to present a summary of empirical evidence accompanied by field observations to elaborate the ongoing trend of relationship between architectural styles in iran and that of the west. this is ...
