Numerical optimization is used to construct new orthonormal compactly supported wavelets with Sobolev regularity exponent as high as possible among those mother wavelets with a fixed support length and a fixed number of vanishing moments. The increased regularity is obtained by optimizing the locations of the roots the scaling filter has on the interval (π/2, π). The results improve those obtai...

The process of land use change and urban sprawl has been considered as a prominent characteristic of urban development. This study aims to investigate urban growth process in Bandar Abbas city, Iran, focusing on urban sprawl and land use change during 1956-2012. To calculate urban sprawl and land use changes, aerial photos and satellite images are utilized in different time spans. The results d...

BACKGROUND Idiopathic hypercalciuria is an important cause of symptoms related to the urinary system. The urinary excretion of high sodium and low potassium is a risk factor for hypercalciuria and urolithiasis. The aim of this study was to compare the urinary excretion of sodium and potassium by children older than two with idiopathic hypercalciuria and healthy control children in Bandar-Abbas,...

BACKGROUND The Acinetobacter species, particularly A. baumannii, has emerged as one of the main causes of nosocomial infections in recent years. The high prevalence of drug resistance in A. baumannii limits the therapeutic options for treating infections caused by these bacteria. The objective of this study was to determine the in vitro activity of Tigecycline and Colistin against clinical isol...

TMH-QPSR 2/I 996 The voice source for different voice qualities has been investigated. The glottal signal has been attained using inverse filtering of the speech signal. Two different methods for modelling the results are demonstrated. An acoustic model, the LF voice source model, h s been fitted to the inverse filtered waveform and the LF parameters have been used to describe the voice pulse. ...
