tehran, iran’s capital with a population of more than 10 million is located in the southern foothills of the alborz collision zone. the alborz mountain belt of northern iran results from the collision of a piece of the gondwana with eurasia in the late triassic (sengor et al., 1988). the alborz active mountain range which consists of several sedimentary and volcanic layers, with east-west trend...

background: although percutaneous coronary intervention (pci) is an excellent therapy for coronary artery disease, there is a paucity of information on the efficacy of pci in improving diastolic function, especially in iran. because of the high prevalence of left diastolic dysfunction in coronary artery disease patients and its probable progression to heart failure, an evaluation of the role of...

The Benjamin-Bona-Mahony equation has improved short-wavelength behaviour, as compared to the Korteweg-de Vries equation, and is another uni-directional wave equation with cnoidal wave solutions. Cnoidal wave solutions can appear in other applications than surface gravity waves as well, for instance to describe ion acoustic waves in plasma physics. Using a computerized symbolic computation tech...

The present study is concerned with the variational principle and plane wave propagation in double porous thermoelastic infinite medium. Lord-Shulman theory [2] of thermoelasticity with one relaxation time has been used to investigate the problem. It is found that for two dimensional model, there exists four coupled longitudinal waves namely longitudinal wave (P), longitudinal thermal wave (T),...

in this paper, a two-dimensional reynolds averaged navier-stokes (rans) model is developed to simulate the shoaling, breaking and overtopping of a solitary wave over a vertical breakwater. turbulence intensity is described by using a k turbulence closure model and the free surface configuration is tracked by volume of fluid (vof) technique. to validate the numerical model the simulation result...

In this study, we consider the propagation of the Love-type wave in piezoelectric gradient covering layer on an elastic half-space having an imperfect interface between them. Dispersion relation has been obtained in the form of determinant for both electrically open and short cases. The effects of different material gradient coefficients of functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM) and ...

avo as a known methodology is used to identify fluid type and reservoir lithology in subsurface exploration. method discussed in this paper, consists of three stages, including: direct modeling, inverse modeling and cross plot interpretation. by direct modeling we can clarify lithology or fluid dependent attributes. analysis performed using both p-p and p-sv attributes. inverse modeling deals w...

Wave propagation is used as an advanced tool of determining elastic properties of rocks. In spite of being cheap and non destructive tests of rock mechanics, due to its modernity method is not yet replacing the traditional dear and destructive tests. In order to pave ways of replacing this test and making best use of it all effective factors of such method are to be assessed. One fundamental fa...
