drug design is generally achieved through trial and error methods, which is a time and resource consuming process and novel methods are needed to improve it. mathematical modelling is one of the possible solutions to speed up this process. in this study, we have presented box-jenkins model, to predict the vasorelaxant activity (pec50) of a set of benzopyrane compounds. we used the hyperchem sof...

recently full factorial design approach has been used to assess the recycling potential of a given waste. the objective of this study is to identify the significant factors and interactions involved in maximizing compressive strength of concrete when chromium waste is used as admixture. in this respect, experimental factors at two levels, which are admixture type (chromite/ chromite+ superplas...

This paper investigates the vibration isolation performance of isolated box structures. Isolated box inside building is a one of the building isolation designs. Some experimental methods are developed to analyze the effects of bending mode of the box structure on vibration isolation efficiency. The vibration reduction performance of an isolated box inside building is found to be degraded by ben...

The distinction between top-down and bottom-up effects is widely relied on in experimental psychology. However, there is an important problem with the way it is normally defined. Top-down effects are effects of previously-stored information on processing the current input. But on the face of it that includes the information that is implicit in the operation of any psychological process – in its...

A method of data collection is presented that unites the efficiency of mass testing with the ease of instant electronic data collection that is typical of computer-based experiments run on individual participants. A wireless response system (WRS), originally designed as a teaching tool, is used to replicate three classic and robust effects from the memory literature (effects of false memory, le...
