in this paper we present a method to perform flood frequency analysis (ffa) when the assumption of stationary is not important (or not valid). a wavelet transform model is developed to ffa. a full series is applied to ffa using two different wavelet functions, and then a combined method is investigated. in the combined method, all discharge data which were less than the lowest value of annual m...

in this paper, the structural properties of the b30n20 molecule have been investigated at b3lyp/6-31g (d) level of theory. the optimized structure and electronic properties calculations for the studiedmolecule have been performed using gaussian 03 program. a mathematical equation of third degreewas exploited for the correlation and exchange energy with the number of primitives. the naturalbondi...

sustainable development of the production in every region requires consideration of energy flow in the production system, moreover, investigating the production system inputs from environmental management point of view is of high importance. in this study energy use and greenhouse gas emissions is investigated. data were collected through interviews with 75 tea farmers and comparing the results...

The tightening of the European Union climate and energy policy, directed to raising the resilience and effectiveness of the European Union Emissions Trading System, may influence on companies' economic performance. Polish energy companies, which mainly use coal in the energy production process, are particularly worried about the potential negative consequences associated with the implementation...

in the present work the effect of cu-water nanofluid, as heat transfer fluid, on the performance of a parabolic solar collector was studied numerically. the temperature field, thermal efficiency, mean-outlet temperatures have been evaluated and compared for the conventional parabolic collectors and nanofluid based collectors. further, the effect of various parameters such as fluid velocity, vol...

In this article, stress analysis and energy estimation during cold-roll forming of symmetrical channel sections have been discussed. Geometry of sheet strip is pre-estimated by a shape function. Then longitudinal, transversal and shear strains have been calculated. Using both the Levy-Mises and the Prandtl Reuss equations, and also considering the Bauschinger effect, stress distributions have b...

The aim of this study is decomposition of the changes in energy consumption with emphasizing the structural changes in Iran during 2001-2011 using Input- Output Structural Decomposition Analysis (I_O SDA). Structural changes in this study represent the changes in structure of intermediate input in sectors and also changes in structure of final demand categories. Structural changes in intermedia...
