one of the methods for the improvement of soil against the tensile stresses is using the artificial supplements in soil such as metal belts or nets, polymer materials and natural fibers. technically this method is called the reinforced of soil.  when a pavement is located on soft soil, great deformations can occur as a result of the crossing of traffic load in superstructure layers of the body....

In this study, different contents of Nano-silica, 2 wt.%, 4 wt.% and 6 wt.%, have been added to bitumen to modify the physical, mechanical and rheological properties of warm mix asphalt (WMA). WMA is containing 2 wt.% of Sasobit (mixture of long-chain hydrocarbons). Various quality control tests have been carried out to characterize the modified bitumen and WMA. The rheo...

background: the prevalence of allergic diseases has risen in the last decades. the objective of this study was to determine the common allergens in children via the skin prick test. methods: this cross-sectional study recruited 313 allergic children (4 months to 18 years old) referred to the asthma and allergy clinic of children’s medical center in tehran. a questionnaire containing demographic...

This paper addresses the security and efficiency issues of the Mix-net based on permutation networks introduced in [1]. We first show that the original construction results in a Mix-net that yields biased permutation, so it gives some advantage to adversaries. A simple repair is provided. We then observe that one of the original schemes can be improved so that the servers and verifier enjoy mor...

We present the architecture, design issues and functions of a MIX-based system for anonymous and unobservable real-time Internet access. This system prevents tra c analysis as well as ooding attacks. The core technologies include an adaptive, anonymous, time/volumesliced channel mechanism and a ticket-based authentication mechanism. The system also provides an interface to inform anonymous user...

Stone mastic asphalt (SMA) is a gap graded mix which categorised by more quantity of coarse aggregate, high content and fibre. Due to stone on contact presences filler content, it acts as stiff matrix reduces the rutting due heavy traffic load. This research presents study fatigue performance RAP replaced SMA mixes using VG 30 binder along with elastomer modifier results were compared conventio...

PURPOSE To investigate different techniques used by dentists when luting an implant-supported crown and to evaluate the application of cement quantitatively and qualitatively. MATERIALS AND METHODS Participants were given a bag containing cement sachet, mixing pad, spatula, a variety of application instruments, and a polycarbonate crown form. The participants were instructed with a standardiz...
