in this paper the effect of site conditions, which are altitude, temperature and relative humidity and also heat dissipation capacity are investigated on the optimized design of natural draft dry cooling towers with specific kind of heat exchangers, known as forgo t60 type. a genetic algorithm program has been developed for optimized design of these cooling towers. objective function includes b...

Several groups have reported the development of systems, based on the principle of X-ray fluorescence, for the in vivo measurement of bone lead concentrations. These systems have used the detection of either the characteristic L or K X-rays resulting from excitation by a suitable photon source. This paper examines design issues related to the development of these systems. These design issues ar...

tower cranes are major and expensive equipment that are extensively used at building construction projects and harbors for lifting heavy objects to demand points. the tower crane locating problem to position a tower crane and supply points in a building construction site for supplying all requests in minimum time, has been raised from more than twenty years ago. this problem has already been so...

The growing number of web applications in the global economy has made it critically important to develop secure and reliable software to support the economy’s increasing dependence on web-based systems. We propose an intercepting filter approach to mitigate the risk of injection flaw exploitationone of the most dangerous methods of attacking web applications. The proposed approach can be implem...
