wide range of planar structures in new technologies has attracted special consideration. in this research vibration behavior of plates with non-linear edges is investigated by means of finite difference (fd) method. for this issue, classical and analytical solutions for plates with linear edges were analyzed and mutual equations, needed for numerical calculation were extracted. by expanding the...

mucoadhesive polymers that bind to the gastric mucin or epithelial cell surface are useful in drug delivery for the purpose of increasing the intimacy and duration of contact of drug with the absorbing membrane. several synthetic polymers are in use for this purpose. since the biodegradability of the synthetic polymers are questionable, in this investigation, an oral mucoadhesive controlled del...

INTRODUCTION Natural breastfeeding is the only proper way to feed newborns and infants because it ensures their proper development. Breastfeeding enhances health and protects against the development of many diseases in childhood and adulthood. The primary benefits of breastfeeding include reduced incidences of infection in the respiratory system as well as a reduction in gastrointestinal and sy...

Composite materials are solids with two or more distinct constituents at a larger scale than an atomic one (Hull, 1981). In accordance to this definition, materials or biological tissues such as wood, dentin and bone are regarded as composite natural materials (Cowin, 2001; Lakes, 2003; Park & Lakes, 1992). Bone is regarded as a natural composite material, which appears as it is in nature, rath...
