background : dental unit waterlines (duwls) are ideal nvironment for development of microbial biofilms. microbial contamination of water in duwls is thought to be the result of biofilm formation as it could serves as a haven for pathogens. the aim of this study was to assess microbial quality of water in dental unit waterlines of dental units located at the dental school of isfahan university o...

background: air pollution in tehran, capital of iran is responsible for several diverse negative effects. it has been estab­lished that air pollution can affect human health. these health effects include increased hospital admissions due to the ex­acerba­tion of cardiac and respiratory diseases, as well as symptoms such as headache, cough, eye irritation, nausea, sputum and even death in the mo...

polyvinylidene fluoride/polyvinylpyrrolidone (pvdf/pvp) hollow fiber membranes were fabricated by dry-jet wet-spinning process. the correlated effects of the air gap length and pvp concentration ((1) the air gap length effect at the low and high pvp concentration in the dope solutions, as well as (2) the effect of the pvp concentration at the same air gap length) on the cross-section structure ...

Historically, our understanding of the air-sea surface stress has been derived from engineering studies of turbulent flows over flat solid surfaces, and more recently, over rigid complex geometries. Over the ocean however, the presence of a free, deformable, moving surface gives rise to a more complicated drag formulation. In fact, within the constant-stress turbulent atmospheric boundary layer...
