introduction: obtaining top academic position among countries of the middle east and having advanced knowledge and ability to produce knowledge are among the most important goals set in iran’s twenty-year vision. present study aimed to determine impact factor of specialized and technical journals of iran and to compare with selected countries and provide appropriate recommendation. methods: in ...

Naturally, deformed rocks commonly contain crack arrays (joints) forming patterns with systematic relationships to the large-scale deformation. Kinematically, joints can be mode-1, -2 or -3 or combinations of these, but there is no overarching theory for the development of the patterns. We develop a model motivated by dislocation pattern formation in metals. The problem is formulated in one dim...

We extend the mechanism for noise-induced phase transitions proposed by Ibañes et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 020601 (2001)] to pattern formation phenomena. In contrast with known mechanisms for pure noise-induced pattern formation, this mechanism is not driven by a short-time instability amplified by collective effects. The phenomenon is analyzed by means of a modulated mean field approximation ...

in this work, different types of chaotic 1-manifolds which lie on the chaotic spheres or on a torus are introduced. some types of retractions of the chaotic spheres affect on the 1-chaotic systems, and other types of retractions occur to the geometric manifold but make the 1-chaotic manifold invariant. the existed retractions are discussed through new proved theorems. also we construct diffe...

ab initio calculations at hf/6-31g* level of theory for geometry optimization and mp2/6-31g*//hf/6-31g* for a single point total energy calculation are reported for the importantenergy-minimum conformations and transition-state geometries of 1, 3-diazacyclohepta-1, 2-diene (2) and 1, 3-diazacycloocta-1, 2-diene (3). the c2 symmetric twist-chair (2-tc)conformation of 2 is calculated to be 7.4 kj...

We analyze pattern formation in doubly resonant intracavity second-harmonic generation in the presence of competing nondegenerate parametric downconversion. We show that for positive cavity detuning of the fundamental frequency the threshold for parametric oscillation is lower than that of transverse, pattern forming instabilities. The parametric oscillation strongly modifies the pattern dynami...

We investigate the impact of cyclic competition on pattern formation in the rock-paper-scissors game. By separately considering random and prepared initial conditions, we observe a critical influence of the competition rate p on the stability of spiral waves and on the emergence of biodiversity. In particular, while increasing values of p promote biodiversity, they may act detrimentally on spat...
