in the classification of traditional domes, they are divided into two main categories: “roc” (cone-shaped) and “nār” (hemisphere-like) domes. urchīn domes are a sub-category of cone-shaped domes which were common in the past in the region of mesopotamia and southwest of iran. the fractal geometry is the best way to describe the geometrical structure of these domes, because the existence of self...

Electrostatic sensors have been widely used in many applications due to their advantages of low cost and robustness. Their spatial sensitivity and time-frequency characteristics are two important performance parameters. In this paper, an analytical model of the induced charge on a novel hemisphere-shaped electrostatic sensor was presented to investigate its accurate sensing characteristics. Fir...

solar flare events of high importance were utilised to study solar latitudinal frequency distribution of the solar flares in northern and southern hemisphere for the solar cycle 22 to recent solar cycle 23. a statistical analysis was performed to obtain their relationship with sudden storm commencement (sscs) and forbush decrease events (fd) of cosmic ray intensity. an 11-year cyclic variation ...
