carbon nanotubes (cnts), nowadays, are one of the important nanomaterials that can be produce with different methods such as chemical vapor deposition (cvd). growing of cnts via cvd method can be influenced by several operating parameters that can affect their quality and quantity. in this article, the effects of inlet gas mixture temperature on cnt’s local growth rate, total production, and le...

objectives: it is well known that neuromuscular function is temperature sensitive. changing of muscle temperature can effect voluntary muscle contraction. the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of cooling and heating on maximal isometric force generated by the elbow flexor musculature in male subjects. methods: forty five healthy males encompassing 3 groups participated in the cur...

introduction: with the rapid increase in use of lasers in medical treatments, it is important to understand the mechanisms of heat transfer in biological tissues in order to minimize damage to the tissues resulting from extra heat applied. the aim of this study is to investigate the temperature distribution in living biological tissues when laser irradiation is used in a treatment. methods:  in...

abstract: in this study an appropriate computational approach was presented for estimating the boiling temperatures of 41 different types of olefins and their derivatives. based on the guidelines of this approach, several structural indices related to the organic components were applied using graph theory. meanwhile, in addition to evaluating the relation between the boiling temperatures of ole...

conclusion a higher magnetic field strength and a decrease in the hr resulted in an increase in body temperature during the mri procedure. results our investigation of the physiological response to rf heating indicated a link between increasing age and body temperature. a higher increase in body temperature was observed in older patients after a 3.0-t mri (r = 0.07, p = 0.29 for 1.5-t mri; r = ...

to assess the effects of pre-analytical handling (storage time and temperature) on selected hematological parameters, whole blood samples were collected in edta coated tubes from each of 30 clinically normal male adult beagle dogs. each sample was separated in 2 aliquots, of which one was stored in ambient temperature (25 ˚c) and the other one was refrigerated (2 to 4 ˚c). complete blood counts...

this study compared the effects of anesthesia with isoflurane and tiva (total intravenous anesthesia) on the intensity of body temperature reduction during anesthesia and incidence of chills after lumbar disc surgery. the study was done as a single blinded randomized clinical trial. from 60 patients who underwent lumbar disc surgery, 30 subjects were placed in isoflurane group and 30 in the tiv...

background: the survey for the prevalence of different species of cattle hyalomma ticks was carried out in three districts (rawalpindi, multan and lahore) of punjab province in pakistan. the bionomical conditions suitable for hyalomma were also studied in laboratory. methods:  one hundred specimens of ticks of different genera were collected from each district. after identification, the hyalomm...

a knowledge of soil surface conditions, especially desert crust, salt crust and desert varnish is useful for improving classification of remotely sensed data. desert crust can generate high levels of reflectance, similar to those areas with high salt concentration and non-saline soil. therefore, soil surface crusts might bias thematic remote sensing of soils. in this study, we evaluated the eff...

conclusions the present study was the first research, in which rectum temperature was compared with that of skin over carotid artery, to find a safe location with easier access and higher accuracy for estimating near core body temperature. results obtained in this study showed that, using a model, it is possible to evaluate near core body temperature in children, by measuring skin temperature o...
