in this paper we focus on a special class of commutative local‎ ‎rings called spap-rings and study the relationship between this‎ ‎class and other classes of rings‎. ‎we characterize the structure of‎ ‎modules and especially‎, ‎the prime submodules of free modules over‎ ‎an spap-ring and derive some basic properties‎. ‎then we answer the‎ ‎question of lam and reyes about strongly oka ideals fam...

following the 1994 northridge and 1995 kobe earthquakes, most of modern structures damaged seriously or devastated totally despite the seismic codes of these countries that had been expected to bear advanced criteria for seismic design of structures. after extensive research, the most probable reason of those destructions was attributed to special specifications of near-field earthquakes. in th...

This study examined the probability of (a) being placed in a disciplinary alternative education setting for mandatory versus discretionary reasons and (b) returning within the same year among an ethnically diverse sample (African American, Caucasian, Hispanic) of middle and high school students (N=270). Participants were compared based on ethnicity, gender, grade level, and special education st...

Estimation of protein stability is important for many reasons: first providing an understanding of the basic thermodynamics of the process of folding, protein engineering, and protein stability plays important role in biotechnology especially in food and protein drug design. Today, proteins are used in many branches, including industrial processes, pharmaceutical industry, and medical fields. A...

If we know the structures of the proteins A and B, and the function of protein A, then if we can detect structural similarity between A and B by producing an alignment between them, it can help us infer functionality of B. The problem of protein structure alignment is essentially similar to the sequence alignment; the fact that we have to do structural alignment in 3-d adds to the complexity of...

Background: The present study has been designed with the aim of evaluating A-kinase anchoring proteins 3 (AKAP3)and Procollagen-Lysine, 2-Oxoglutarate 5-Dioxygenase 3 (PLOD3) gene mutations and prediction of 3D proteinstructure for ligand binding activity in the cases of non-obstructive azoospermic male.Materials and Methods: Clinically diagnosed cases of non-obstructive azoos...

Alkaline/surfactant/polymer (ASP) flooding has been extensively applied to enhancing oil recovery. As an oil displacement agent, pe1troleum sulfonate (PS) is widely used in ASP pilot experiments. It is very important to find a petroleum sulfonate with a high interfacial activity and low adsorption loss. Anionic surfactant petroleum sulfonate is synthesized in a single-tube film sulfonation reac...

Volume 6, Issue 5, September – October 2017 Page 98 Abstract: Cloud computing yields a variety of advantages like high storage space, shared resources and less management etc. Searchable encryption schemes are implemented to store the encrypted data. But this approach suffers from lack of security. To overcome this problem, a new tree based structure having Greedy Depth First Search algorithm i...

In this study a special type of silicoaluminophosphate with opal structure (Opal-SAPO) was prepared under microwave condition using tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS), triethanolamine (TEA), aluminiumisopropoxid and phosphoric acid 85%. The product was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric (TGA) and Fourier Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR).The crystalline product showed a good act...
