Abstract In this work, the Mellin transform method was used to obtain solutions for the stress field components in two dimensional (2D) elasticity problems in terms of plane polar coordinates. the Mellin transformation was applied to the biharmonic stress compatibility equation expressed in terms of the Airy stress potential function, and the boundary value problem transformed to an algebraic  ...

to determine the effect of zn and mn enriched seed on quality of two winter safflower varieties under drought stress, an experiment was conducted at the agricultural faculty research field, tarbiat modarres university, during 2004-2005 cropping season. the design was a split factorial randomized complete block one of 3 replications. main plots were composed of 3 different levels of drought stre...

This paper presents the effect of centrifugal load in functionally graded (FG) hollow sphere subjected to uniform magnetic field. Analytical solution for stresses and perturbation of the magnetic field vector are determined using the direct method and the power series method. The material stiffness, the magnetic permeability and the density vary continuously across the thickness direction accor...

abstract- to investigate the effect of draught stress on water relations, stomatal density, chlorophyll content and yield of rapeseed, an experiment was done with four levels of drought stress including l1 (field capacity, fc), l2 (70% available water content, awc), l3 (50% awc), and l4 (30% awc), within three growth stages- including stem elongation (t1), onset of flowering (t2) and silique fo...

this study was carried out to evaluate the changes in some important cell parameters under water limitation in sorghum genotypes. a factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized completely design in greenhouse, in university of mohaghegh ardabili in 2014. treatments were water stress at levels of 85, 65, 45 and 25 percent field capacity in and three genotypes of forage sorghum (kfs2, k...

the aims of this study were to assess the effects of drought stress on peroxidase (pod), superoxide dismutase (sod) and catalase (cat) activities as well as free proline content and growth parameters of pistacia khinjuk seedlings under drought stress. therefore, the one-year seedlings of pistacia khinjuk subjected to water stress (25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% field capacity) for 8 months in greenhou...

in order to study the effects of different levels of drought stress and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria on the germination indices of seeds harvested from wheat (tritium aestivum l.) cv. sayonz in the field treated with different levels of nitrogen, in controlled conditions, a factorial layout based on completely randomized design with three replications, was conducted. treatments included...

investigation of the cultivated tomato plant as a plant ideal system along with the drought resistant wild species can be useful to a better understanding of the mechanisms of drought resistance and improvement of tomato plants. to investigate the effect of drought stress on leaf relative water content (rwc), electrolyte leakage and photosynthetic parameters in four species of tomato (a cultiva...
