this study analyzed the relationship between the vertical distribution of root biomass and soil organic carbon (soc)content in the arid shrub lands of semnan province in iran. three sites were selected based on differences in canopy coverof artemisia sieberi (5%, 10% and 15%). average density of shrubs, root biomass and soc were determined at differentdepths (0-20, 20-40, 40-60, 60-80 cm) in 20...

simulation of metallurgical processes has been the subject of intense research due to the reduced number of experiments required for controlling the process as well as time and energy savings it allows. in gas carburizing of steel parts, the amount of carbon at the surface of carburized parts is the most important specification of the process in terms of achieving the desired metallurgical prop...

the performance of new forage brassica plants were studied in ilam, iran, during 2012-2014 in a field experiment using a randomized complete block design with four replications. the treatments included, different forage crops perko, buko, oilseed radish, berseem clover, and the combination of three plants ramtil, phaselia, and clover. the studied traits consisted of plant height, forage yield, ...

the present study aimed at estimating the amount of carbon storage and its relationship with other physical and chemical soil properties in four land-use systems including intact, protected, exploited and garden-uses areas in the northern zagros region in west azarbaijan province, iran. thirty sample plots were identified and within each plot, soil samples were taken in each land use and each s...

non-destructive eddy current (ec) technique has long been used to detect discontinuities in materials. recently, its application has been extended to characterize materials microstructure. in order to identify different microstructures, four plain carbon steel bars with different chemical compositions (aisi 1015, 1035, 1045 and 1080) were used in annealed condition. the pearlite percentage, car...
