It is well-known that the second smallest eigenvalue 22 of the difference Laplacian matrix of a graph G is related to the expansion properties of G. A more detailed analysis of this relation is given. Upper and lower bounds on the diameter and the mean distance in G in terms of 22 are derived.

The aim of this study was to produce mulch by combining natural mineral and organic substances in order to reach soil stabilization and improve soil physical and mechanical properties in Koopal area. The effects of organic mulch (at 3 levels of O1: combination of 1% sugarcane bagasse biochar+0.5% gum Arabic+0.5% gelatin; O2: combination of 3% sugarcane bagasse biochar+1% gum Arabic+1% gelatin; ...

background: despite the importance of hamstring tendon autograft, one major disadvantage in applying this technique in the surgical reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament is individual variability in the tendon diameter. hence, the purpose of the present study was to use anthropometric parameters such as gender, height and body mass index to predict 4-strand (quadruple) hamstring tendons ...

safflower is a crop native to iran and could be improved in plant breeding programs by inter-specific crosses. this study was conducted to evaluate genotypes of safflower derived from interspecific hybridization for the relationships between some agronomic traits and yield components. the genotypes were planted according to a randomized complete block design with three replications at the resea...

In order to finding cultivars with high yield and compatible with potato in the form of fall cultivation in jiroft area, an experiment in randomized complete block design with three replication, was done in Jiroft agricultural research center in 2013. In this experiment height plant, No. Stem, Tuber diameter, Tuber weight/plant, No. tuber and yield were examined. Effect Prevent Freezing Cropaid...
