An extensive experimental investigation to understand the aerodynamic behavior of wrap around fin (WAF) missile configuration has been conducted. Various tests using at first a standard model (TTCP) in the trisonic wind tunnel of Imam Hossein University has been performed. The tunnel has attest section of 60×60 cm2 and can operate at Mach numbers of 0.4≤M∞≤2.2 and at attack angles of -4˚≤α≤10˚....

Web applications are permanently being exposed to attacks that exploit their vulnerabilities. In this work we investigate the application of machine learning techniques to leverage Web Application Firewall (WAF), a technology that is used to detect and prevent attacks. We propose a combined approach of machine learning models, based on one-class classification and ngram analysis, to enhance the...

A water soluble acidic heteropolysaccharide named wAF was isolated from Auricularia auricula-judae. It composed of a backbone of α(1→3)-linked D-mannopyranose residues. WAF fractions exhibited strong inhibition against Acinar cell carcinoma proliferation in vitro test. It significantly inhibited tumour growth in dose-dependent way in BALB/c mice. Moreover, the enhancement ratios of mice body we...

To study the role of IGF-I receptor signaling on cell cycle events we utilized MCF-7 breast cancer cells. IGF-I at physiological concentrations increased the level of p21CIP/WAF mRNA after 4has well as protein after 8hby 10- and 6-fold, respectively, in MCF-7 cells. This IGF-1 effect was reduced by 50% in MCF-7-derived cells (SX13), which exhibit a 50% reduction in IGF-1R expression, demonstrat...

We have quantified levels of CD105, its ligand TGFb and receptor-ligand complexes in sera from healthy individuals (n=31), patients with triple vessel disease documented by coronary angiography (TVD; n=36) and patients with chest pain and a positive exercise electrocardiogram but with normal coronary angiogram (NCA; n=30). Both active TGFb1 and active plus acid-activatable TGFb1 [(a+ l)TGFb1] w...

Accidental pollution incidents are common in the marine environment and are often caused by oil-related activities. Here the potential of such an incident to disrupt reproduction in two polychaete species is investigated, using an environmentally relevant preparation of weathered Forties crude oil, i.e. the water accommodated fraction (WAF). Oocytes were collected and exposed to three concentra...

Genotoxic responses towards chronic exposure of Chaetoceros tenuissimus and Skeletonema costatum to water accommodated fraction of petroleum hydrocarbons (WAF-P) were evaluated as biomarkers of petroleum hydrocarbons pollution. The DNA damage caused by water accommodated fraction of petroleum hydrocarbons was assessed in terms of the DNA integrity measured by alkaline unwinding assay. The compa...

The context of this work is the development first order total variation diminishing (TVD) implicit-explicit (IMEX) Runge-Kutta (RK) schemes as a basis Multidimensional Optimal Order detection (MOOD) approach to approximate solution hyperbolic multi-scale equations. A key feature our newly proposed TVD that resulting CFL condition does not depend on fast waves considered model, long they are int...

It is well known that finite difference or finite volume total variation diminishing (TVD) schemes solving one-dimensional scalar conservation laws degenerate to first order accuracy at smooth extrema [8], thus TVD schemes are at most second order accurate in the L1 norm for general smooth and non-monotone solutions. However, Sanders [12] introduced a third order accurate finite volume scheme w...
