the current study aims to examine the impact of psychological capital and organizational commitment on the quality of the offered services to the clients by the counter staffs of ansar bank. in this research, the theoretical model and the theories between the variables were first developed and  structural equation was used to examine research theories. ansar bank counter staffs of tehran city a...

This paper examines a methodology for computing the probability of structural failure by combining neural networks (NN) and Monte Carlo simulation (MCS). MCS is a very powerful tool, simple to implement and capable of solving a broad range of reliability problems. However, its use for evaluation of very low probabilities of failure, of the order of magnitude currently found in structural reliab...

dear editor multiple choice tests are the most common objective tests in medical education which are used to assess the ind­ividual knowledge, recall, recognition and problem solving abilities. one of the testing components is the post-test analysis. this component includes; first, qualitative analysis of the taxonomy of questions based on the bloom’s educational objectives and percentage of th...

The finite-element (FE) method is widely recognized as a powerful tool in modeling structural and geotechnical systems and simulating their response to static and dynamic loads. In addition, numerical optimization is commonly used in many engineering applications, such as structural reliability analysis, FE model updating, structural identification, and structural optimization. This paper focus...

Many factors influence structural reliability in practice engineering. Some can be measured to obtain lots of data, but others are difficult acquire statistical data. In view this situation, a new analysis method is proposed using chance theory, which composed probability theory and uncertainty reflect random cognitive simultaneously. The performance function mechanical element defined, when it...
