Being attended by national dignitaries and representatives from other countries, the inauguration of Iran's seventh president, Hasan Rouhani, was spectacular in several respects. The current study aimed at investigating the generic structure and rhetorical moves tha...

allochthonous masses are common structures in zagros fold-thrust belt. they are generally considered as collapse structures formed by the influence of gravity and in rock units with competency contrast. however, large allochthonous masses mapped in dowgonbadan area in dezful embayment near the mountain front fault (mff) of zagros show characteristics different from the belt common collapse stru...

measuring sensitivity of hydraulic structures is considered as an approach for evaluation of water projects performance, due to lower distribution efficiency in irrigation and drainage project schemes. sensitivity analysis approach for irrigation structures is one of flow analysis methods which are developed in recent years in order to measure the behavior of flow in hydraulic structures in an ...

the operations in the set of fuzzy numbers are usually obtained bythe zadeh extension principle. but these definitions can have some disadvantagesfor the applications both by an algebraic point of view and by practicalaspects. in fact the zadeh multiplication is not distributive with respect tothe addition, the shape of fuzzy numbers is not preserved by multiplication,the indeterminateness of t...

condolence is part of austin’s expressive speech act and is related to searle’s behabitives illocutionary act. although a theoretically sound issue in pragmatics, condolence speech act has not been investigated as much as other speech acts in discourse-related studies. this paper aims at investigating interjections and intensifiers while performing condolence speech act among persian and englis...

this paper reviews the possible effects determined on polymeric food packaging films by the simultaneous application of pressure (p) and temperature (t) in high pressure pasteurization and sterilization treatments of packaged foodstuffs. both theoretical modeling and experimental issues are discussed. in fact reversible and irreversible effects that could occur in single film as well as in mult...

in this study, first energy absorption of axial and bending loading is considered. next, thin walled structures under oblique loading are investigated using abaqus computer simulation, where 180 different cases are simulated. simulation results of the thin walled structures under oblique loading were compared with the experimental results of nagel, and good agreement was perceived. simulation r...
