The present study sought to investigate the comprehension of Garden-Path structures by Iranian EFL learners. 50 female students of Kharazmi English Language Institute in Karaj participated in this study. All of the participants were native speakers of Persian studying in Kharazmi English language institute in Karaj, Iran. They ranged from 18 to 30 in terms of age. The participants were administ...

since data envelopment analysis (dea) introduced in 1970s, it has been widely applied to measure the efficiency of a wide variety of production and operation systems. recently dea has been extended to examine the efficiency of decision making units (dmus) with two-stage network structures or processes, where the outputs from the first stage are intermediate measures that make up the inputs of t...

‎for a given measure space $(x,{mathscr b},mu)$ we construct all measure spaces $(y,{mathscr c},lambda)$ in which $(x,{mathscr b},mu)$ is embeddable‎. ‎the construction is modeled on the ultrafilter construction of the stone--v{c}ech compactification of a completely regular topological space‎. ‎under certain conditions the construction simplifies‎. ‎examples are given when this simplification o...

Current research into discovering important intermediate nodes in a network suspected of containing criminal activity, is highly dependent on network centrality values. Betweenness centrality, for example, is widely used to rank the nodes that act as brokers in the shortest paths connecting all source with all end nodes in a network. However both the shortest path node betweenness as well as th...

This paper is devoted to a systematic study of certain geometric integral inequalities which arise in continuum combinatorial approaches $L^p$-improving for Radon-like transforms over polynomial submanifolds intermediate dimension. The desired relate and extend number important results measure theory.

This paper studies the global production network using a general equilibrium model calibrated on world input–output data. The analysis of propagation idiosyncratic productivity shocks in allows to define model-based centrality measure. Such measure is used investigate topology 2014 and its evolution from 2000 2014. We find that new influential sectors have emerged over time. Moreover, we show s...

background: hadjelia truncata is a nematode that causes lesions in the gizzard lining of pigeons, which may even lead to death. the aim of this study was to introduce alphitobius diaperinus as a new intermediate host for hadjelia truncata . methods: h. truncata infection was identified in a pigeon flock in ahvaz city, khuzestan province, iran by performing fecal examination and autopsy. adult a...

asphalt modification/reinforcement has received considerable attention as viable solutions to enhance flexible pavement performance. this is mainly prompted by the unsatisfactory performance of traditional road materials exposed to dramatic increases and changes in traffic patterns. this paper presents the evaluation of fatigue behaviour of nano reinforced stone mastic asphalt mixtures. fatigue...
