in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the iranian made charcoal tubes in the field , 60 local made and 60 imported ones (skc type) were randomly selected and placed side by side for sampling aromatic hydrocarbons (including benzene, toluene, xylene) in workers breathing zone in a paint factory. the results indicated that there were no statistically significant differences between the mean c...

ultraviolet waves, because of their short wavelength, have a high energy and considerable damaging effects on surfaces. protection against ultraviolet radiations is one of the finishing treatments done on surfaces exposed to sunlight. the importance of this issue in relation to human health, due to complications such as skin burns and cancer, is doubled. up to now, different materials such as z...

introduction: transhiatal esophagectomy is a widely accepted approach for palliative resection of subcarinal esophageal cancers. this study was designed to evaluate the necessity of routine thoracostomy tube insertion in this technique.  methods: this descriptive study was conducted on 123 consecutive patients with esophageal cancers undergoing transhiatal esophagectomy from march 2001 to febru...

this paper investigates axial compression process of multi-layered tubes with circular cross-section under the axial loading in the quasi-static condition using experimental method. some specimens are prepared in seven different groups, namely; empty carbon/epoxy composite tubes, solid carbon/epoxy composite rods, empty copper tubes, composite tubes with silicon sealant filler, concentrically s...

background: the presence of heavy metals in the environment especially in water supplies have caused many concerns because of their toxicity and non-degradability. hexavalent chromium (cr) is one of the most toxic metals which is used in many industries, so it is essential to remove it from industrial wastewater. in this study, we made a comparison between different adsorption isotherms in the ...

in this paper, analysis of fluid flow and heat transfer over the bank of tubes is considered. k-ω sst model is applied for simulation of turbulent flow. in this paper, the improvement of efficiency of a bundle of circular tubes by changing the shape of the cross section of one row of the pipes to the elliptical cross section as an innovative plan is considered. as know, friction factor in turbu...

the brass tubes with foam cores of alsi7sic3, alsi7sic3fe1 and alsi7sic3fe3 were produced as the crush-boxes with circle and square cross-section. then axial compressive behavior and energy absorption capability of the foam-filled tubes were investigated during the quasi-static progressive plastic buckling. the uniaxial compressive stress–strain curves of the foam-filled brass tubes exhibited t...
