Today, the pollution of heavy metals in wastewater and surface waters, which is a global environmental problem, has increased with the expansion of various industrial activities. Heavy metals cause serious health problems due to their accumulation in human and animal tissues. Thorium, is a radioactive element with an atomic number of 90 that is widely used in the optics, aerospace, metallurgy and chemical industries, in the manufacture of high-strength alloys, in UV photocells, and especially in the nuclear industry. The primary sources of radioactive wastewater include nuclear power plants, nuclear energy industry research centers, medical institutions, industrial production, universities,... 

Molybdenum is one of the important elements of the intermediary metal with atomic number 42, which is used in various industries, but among the important uses of this metal in the nuclear industry, we can mention the presence of this element in the production of yellow cake as an impurity and also as a precursor for the production of radiopharmaceuticals. It is one of the impurities that remain in all stages of yellow cake production along with uranium, and the high presence of this element causes the centrifuges to become unbalanced during the injection of "U" "F" _"6" gas, and on the other hand, technetium, the main ingredient in the production of radiopharmaceuticals, It comes from the... 

In the past years a lot of research has been done on effects of different parameters on dynamic behavior of soils. According to these studies, principal stress direction rotation and intermediate principal stress coefficient have a major effect on monotonic behavior of soils, but more studies needed for observingtheir effect on dynamic behavior of soils.
In recent study undrained isotropic consolidated specimens of dense Babolsar sand subjected to α changes using dynamic hollow cylinder apparatus and the inner and outer cell pressure kept constant so that b was relative to α changes.
Fisrt series of testswere done to find an appropriate value for induced cyclic deviator stress. The... 

Removing nitrogen, as one the most surface and ground water contaminant is very important and in order to achieve this aim,nitrification and denitrification are effective and economical methods. In this work, moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) with initial denitrification structure, adapted from modified LUDZACK-ETTINGER (MLE) method used in order to industrial wastewater treatment with COD value in range of 900-2100 mg/lit and ammonium in range of 150-430 mg/lit in 3 hydrolic retention time of 18 , 12 and 8 hours.Aerobic reactor volume is 14.4 liter and anoxic reactor volume is 7.2 liter and reflux flow amount from aerobic reactor to anoxic reactor has considered being 3 times of anoxic... 

Monitoring of activities of elderly and intelligent decisions about their living environment is a key challenge in smart environments. In the case of such challenges, correctness of system performance is highly dependent on how the model is designed. In the ambient intelligence (AMI) modeling, formal modeling is one of the best approaches because it supports certainty. In addition, time, location and mobility in AMI are crucial requirements, particularly in emergency treatment services. Ambient calculus is a formalism for describing mobility, process migration and message transfer, but it cannot express metric time duration. In this paper we propose an extension of ambient calculus with time... 

In industry it is usual to develop a family of similar software instead of a single one. Software product-line (SPL) engineering or family-based software engineering is an approach that tries to minimize needed effort and time-to-market and maximize quality of manufactured products through strategic planning for maximizing reuse among members of the family. On the other hand it is known that testing software is an indivisible part of software development process which requires considerable time and effort. With large number of products created from an SPL, it is obvious that testing should be conducted in such a way that needed effort does not maintain a linear relationship with number of... 

Wound is a defect or failure in the skin texture which occurs as a result of physical or heat injuries or physiological conditions. The wound dress as a temporary cover can improve wound healing process and due to the unique properties, hydrogels have become appropriate choice for this application. Hydrogel’s structure allows drug to be loaded in the wound dress. Hydrogel wound dress should have adequate fluidity to cover wound’s bed and make full contact with the skin. Sufficient cohesion and strength is also necessary to allow the wound dress to remove from wound completely. Therefore, the study on the viscoelastic properties of hydrogel is important. In this study, polyvinyl alcohol... 

Ultrasonic metal welding is a solid state welding process and is widely used in welding the connections of lithium-ion battery batteries in hybrid and plug-in hybrid vehicles. This welding process has advantages over fusion welding processes such as; Shorter time, no heat affected area, optimal energy consumption, cheaper equipment and no harm to the environment. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect and optimization of time, normal pressure and oscillation amplitude parameters in order to achieve the maximum tensile-shear test force and T-peel test in the dissimilar welding of 1050 aluminum and copper (purity above 99.9%). In order to achieve the optimal state of welding... 

The distance measurement is the corner stone of the modern cosmology. They are measured via ”Doppler Effect”, accordingly the distances in cosmology are obtained in red-shift space. Despite the cosmological background expansion, the peculiar velocities due to the local density contrast distort these measurements. One of the main challenges in upcoming cosmological studies is to distinguish the peculiar velocity effect from the background expansion.Supernova Type Ia as standard candles can be think of a crucial observation to address the above problem. In this thesis, we study the effect of cosmological perturbations on distance-redshift relation of the SNIa. The corrective effects are from weak... 

Organizations are established and developed based on a specific existence policy. They would exist as long as they are able to do their basic mission. An organization could perform its mission through some work processes. The better processes makes higher organization’s productivity. In order words desirable quality and quantity of an organization depends on processing functions. Improved processes use minimum resources to achieve efficiency maximum. Deeds and Properties Registration Org. (DPRO) is a unit, which maintains and supports national security through arranging individual social and economic relations, the organization has an outstanding position. Following composition of 20-year...
