braced frames structures have a good lateral stiffness against earthquakes. however, energy loss of their members is slight and strong forces are given to the structures. moment frames have a more flexible function against earthquakes and also have a better flexibility than braced frames. however, since its lateral stiffness is low, too much displacement of the structure results in an increase ...

purpose: to evaluate the effect of vacuum and flow rate on endothelial cell loss after high versus low vacuum phacoemulsification. methods: this randomized clinical trial was performed on 60 eyes of 60 patients with moderate lens opacity (nuclear sclerosis 3+). all surgeries were performed by one experienced surgeon using stop and chop technique with sovereign white star machine (amo). patients...

in this paper, a new combined power and refrigeration cycle is proposed, which combines the rankin power cycle and the ejector refrigeration cycle. this combined cycle produces both power output and refrigeration output simultaneously. this cycle is driven by the flue gas of gas turbines, industrial waste heats, solar energy and geothermal energy. an exergy analysis is performed to guide the th...

The effects of greenhouse gases (GHG) on the growth of global warming, and increase of GHG and air pollutant emissions for energy production have forced the need of energy recovery which is normally wasted in industrial plant. The present research work focused on the GHG and air pollutant emissions reduction employing pressure waste energy recovery. Pressure break-down via Joule-Thomson valve i...
