Usually the structures are designed based on the fixed-base assumption; however thisassumption is not always correct and the bed flexibility should be considered. This effectwhich is called soil-structure interaction, change the response of structure on both elasticand inelastic behavior. In the regulations for the design of structures on flexible base,generally soil-structure system is replaced with an equivalent fixed base structure; in theway that the design force of soil-structure system with reasonable accuracy can beestimated by equivalent fixed-base structure. In some regulations, dynamic characteristicsof equivalent structure have been determined on elastic state and the results have... 

Flagella is the organelle involved in motility of Salmonella and plays an important role in colonization of Salmonella. Flagellins is the structural subunits of flagellar filament that is known as an adjuvant. Recombinant production of flagellin of S. enteritidis is advantageous due to the removal of pathogenic microorganism from the production process and improved process safety. E.coli is an appropriate host for the expression of recombinant proteins. However, its major obstacle is the formation of inclusion bodies. Inclusion bodies are aggregated inactive proteins and the recovery of proteins in the active form from these aggregates usually has a low yield. Therefore, the objective of our... 

In the regard of structural health monitoring the identification of the structural modal parameters is essential. Since the different sources (wind, waves, Devices …) induce vibration on an offshore platform, it is impossible to determine the portion of each source in vibration. Thus the methods that analyze vibrations needless of input measurements are more efficient. These methods apply the ambient factors and obtain the modal properties from the structural response. This procedure has no unwanted effect on the serviceability of structure and by placement of sensors on the platform; one can monitor the structural health.
In the present work a two dimensional jacket offshore platform... 

In economics, choice or behavior is considered as a result of utility optimization. However, there’s much theoretical and experimental evidence that shows human beings suffer from decision-making and judgment errors. This research aiming at examining the relationship between post-choice attitude changes and framing effects as the two instances of those errors designed and implemented a 2 by 2 between-subject lab experiment. The subjects were randomly assigned to one of these four groups. The two treatment groups made their decision after they rated the objects one time and the two control groups did this after they evaluated the objects two times. Another intervention was to manipulate...
