I study a relativistic open string coupling through its endpoints to a plane wave with arbitrary temporal profile. The string’s transverse oscillations respond linearly to the external field. This makes it possible to solve the classical equations, and to calculate the quantum-mechanical S-matrix in closed form. I analyze the dynamics of the string as the characteristic frequency and duration o...

Abstract Effects of water stress on root and leaf growth rates and their relationships with yield under normal and water stress conditions were examined at the Greenhouse and Research Field of Faculty of Agriculture, Kerman University, Iran, using seven maize cultivars including SC-404, SC-704, BC-666, TC-647, DC-370, Jeta and Kordona. During a period of 14 days, water stress at -0.4 MPa was ...

In this study, stress and displacement functions of the three-dimensional theory of elasticity for homogeneous isotropic bodies are derived from first principles from the differential equations of equilibrium, the generalized stress – strain laws and the geometric relations of strain and displacement. It is found that the stress and displacement functions must be biharmonic functions. The deriv...

Isolated preparations of portions of the canine intraventricular conducting system were studied by microelectrode techniques in order to determine the nature of transverse spread and longitudinal dissociation of impulses in bundle branches and false tendons. Driving stimuli were delivered to an eccentric location on normal conducting tissue, and the arrival times of the propagating impulses wer...

the effect of drought on the seed yield and some associated characteristics of common been under normal and drought stress conditions and determination of durable genotypes to drought were studied by planting 32 genotypes in two separate augmented designs in normal and stress conditions. these genotypes were evaluated in randomized complete block design with 3 replications in the field of facul...

We have systematically measured the differential stress-optic coefficient, DeltaC, in a number of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) fibers drawn with different stress, ranging from 2 up to 27 MPa. DeltaC was determined in transverse illumination by measuring the dependence of birefringence on additional axial stress applied to the fiber. Our results show that DeltaC in PMMA fibers has a negative...

Ultrasonography is a safe, rapid, and non-invasive diagnostic tool that has been previously used for imaging infants and canine neonatal brains. The purpose of the present study was to describe the ultrasonographic appearance of the brain in clinically normal caprine neonates. Ultrasonographic examination was done on 12 day-old goat kids, transverse and sagittal transcranial scans were obtained...

abstract the usage of heroin is associated with a variety of neurologic disorders, including acute transverse myelitis. in this study we present a 19 year old man who was suffered from insufflated heroin after several months of abstinence, and admitted to hospital emergency department, unconscious. he responded to fluid therapy and naloxone, but could not move his legs on examination. he had fl...
