this paper addresses the design of an observer-based fault diagnosis scheme, which is applied to some of the sensors and actuators of a wind turbine benchmark model. the methodology is based on a modified sliding mode observer (smo) that allows accurate reconstruction of multiple sensor or actuator faults occurring simultaneously. the faults are reconstructed using the equivalent output error i...

background: among the most important parasitic disease, causing diarrhea, gi­ardia lamblia is noteworthy. nowadays detection methods for these parasites in­clude parasitological methods such as microscopic examination. the sensitivity of these methods relies on the expertise and experience of examiners. in contrast, molecular methods such as pcr are less dependent on the expertise of the exam­i...

brucella melitensis and brucella abortus are of the most important causes of brucellosis, an infectious disease which is transmitted either directly or indirectly including consuming unpasteurized dairy products. both strains are considered endemic in iran. common diagnostic methods such as bacteriologic cultures are difficult and time consuming regarding the bacteria. the aim of this study was...

anomaly detection (ad) has recently become an important application of hyperspectral images analysis. the goal of these algorithms is to find the objects in the image scene which are anomalous in comparison to their surrounding background. one way to improve the performance and runtime of these algorithms is to use dimensionality reduction (dr) techniques. this paper evaluates the effect of thr...

the occurrence of blindness after drinking some herbaceous distillates is created some anxieties in iran. in this study, the effectiveness of concentration of khalvash distillate was studied on the function of the new modified suggested chromotropic acid method for qualitative detection of methanol. for this purpose, three samples of khalvash distillate were purchased from vendors of rasht. acc...

residue number system (rns) is a non-weighted number system for integer number arithmetic, which is based on the residues of a number to a certain set of numbers called module set. the main characteristics and advantage of residue number system is reducing carry propagation in calculations. the elimination of carry propagation leads to the possibility of maximizing parallel processing and reduc...

the attempt to find out if someone is telling a lie has been of human's interest. one of the techniques which is believed to be efficient in future is fmri (functional magnetic resonance imaging), using which the changes of regional blood flow during the designed paradigm can be recorded. this method has been considered as a better technique for studying lie and deception. for investigatin...

background and objectives: tuberculosis (tb) is the oldest known bacterial disease in humans. due to the rise of morbidity in recent years, early diagnosis of the disease is necessary. materials and methods: in this study we used fluorescent amplification–based specific hybridization (flash) pcr to target is6110 for rapid detection of m. tuberculosis (mtb). to investigate the important factors ...

breast cancer (bc) accounts for one of the major health problems around the world. since the diagnosis process can have great effect on therapy outcomes, we studied the biomarkers specific to breast tumors stage i based on examining different iranian patients. cases from different stages were examined to discover their highly expressed proteins. in addition, pathologic evaluations were performe...
