objective some lines of evidences demonstrate that opioids are involved in water and food intake. on the other hand the dopaminergic mesolimbic system that consists of ventral tegmental area (vta), nucleus accumbens (nac) and medial prefrontal cortex is considered to be crucial in the rewarding actions of opiates. there are also reports showing that this system has some roles in appetite and dr...

abstract bottom intake is one of the most appropriate systems for diverting discharge in steep rivers. bottom intake with porous media is a new system of diverting discharge which can be replaced by bottom rack intakes. to investigate the hydraulic flow characteristics on diverted discharge of this intake, an experimental model was designed in which the inflow, diverted discharge and remained f...

Several lines of evidence suggest that brain histamine may be involved in the central control of food intake. The effect of histamine on feeding is mediated through three kinds of receptors (H1, H2, and H3). The present study was designed to investigate the effect of intracerebroventricular injection of histamine, promethazine (H1 antagonist) and ranitidine (H2 antagonist) on food intake of fre...

The intake distortion experiment is one of the important methods for aero-engine aerodynamic stability assessment. In this paper, in order to overcome shortcomings traditional design such as low accuracy approximating target map and many experimental iterations, a system proposed network using Fluent based on mapping relationship between screen distance porous media. Finally, steady-state total...
