Industrial demands for more compact heat exchangers are a motivation to find new technology features. Electrohydrodynamics (EHD) is introduced as a promising phenomenon for heat transfer enhancement mechanisms. Similar to any new technology, EHD has not been understood completely yet and requires more fundamental studies. In boiling phase change phenomena, nucleation is the dominant mechanism i...

abstract heavy metals uptake and their distribution in plants are different. in addition to the genetic factors, environmental factors such as interactions of heavy metals with essential elements are very important on the amount of heavy metals uptake. in this study, the effects of iron and manganese on accumulation of cadmium in shoot and root of sunflower and corn in different concentration o...

Introduction: In recent decades, medical education has been following new approaches to early clinical exposure. This study was designed to determine early clinical exposure (ECE) objectives and their availability and importance from the participants’ viewpoint. Methods: In a descriptive study, 70 students who had participated in ECE at Isfahan Medical University were asked to complete a quest...

In this paper, one of the most important criterion in public services quality named availability is evaluated by using artificial neural network (ANN). In addition, the availability values are predicted for future periods by using exponential weighted moving average (EWMA) scheme and some time series models (TSM) including autoregressive (AR), moving average (MA) and autoregressive moving avera...

Earth pressure balance tunnel boring machines (EPB-TBMs) are favorably applied in urban tunneling projects. Despite their numerous advantages, considerable delays and high maintenance cost are the main disadvantages these machines suffer from. Reliability, availability, and maintainability (RAM) analysis is a practical technique that uses failure and repair dataset obtained over a reasonable ti...
