Aims: The main goal of the upcoming research is to explain the principles and spatial qualities of campuses based on the environmental preferences of female students.

Methods The nature of the research is qualitative and exploratory based on the methodology of content analysis and semi-structured in-depth interviews with a total of 40 female students of the faculties of literature and humanities and basic sciences in each of the two studied universities of Tehran and Shahid beheshti is done.

Findings: According to the narrative of female students, eight criteria of urban location, university campus structure plan, faculty architecture plan, likeability, university brand, attention to the dignity and rights of female students, the attractiveness of university activities and events, and the importance of hangout in the university are among the environmental qualities. It is effective in improving the presence of female students in university campuses.

Conclusion: Based on the environmental preferences of women, in addition to physical factors, non-physical factors are also effective in the presence of women in university campuses. In addition, the space may have a suitable physical quality, but it is gendered in a way that gives the woman the feeling of being subjugated and under control. For this purpose, the physical qualities of university campuses are necessary and not sufficient to promote the presence of girls.

One of the main priorities of knowledge management researchers is motivating people for sharing their knowledge. Although some believes that knowledge is the power, it seems that knowledge has now power on its own but what make it powerful is that part which share among people. The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of social capital and behavior control as influencing factors on tacit knowledge sharing of staff. Data was collected using a close questionnaire. According to literature, a model was designed and tested to indicate the effect of staff tacit knowledge sharing among work groups, social capital view, and behavior control. Finally, results from SEM and regression analysis showed that social capital has positive effects on tacit knowledge sharing intention through the affect based-trust, shared value, and internal control variables. Tacit knowledge sharing intention, on tacit knowledge sharing behavior is greater when external control is higher in compare with internal control.

Problem: Factors such as the change in the emotional connection of humans with the urban space, events and places, have led to the reduction of place attachment and the aggravation of its consequences in Tehran. 
Target: In this research, analysis of key criteria affecting the use of color palettes as an important factor in the identification and improvement of the spatial attachment of urban spaces in Tehran has been considered.
 authors try to redefine the importance and significance of the urban public arts event in urban spaces, identify the feasibility of performing street music in social environments. The green corridor of Shahrchai and the Khayyam Jonubi sidewalk of Urmia city have been studied.
Method: Interpretive Phenomenological Approach (IPA) is used as a qualitative approach, which aims to provide detailed reviews of the personal life experience of the color perception of the city, and the key criteria affecting the use of the palette. Color schemes are presented in spatial correlation in the framework of causal layered analysis (CLA). Due to the limitation of available samples, a targeted non-random sample was used to identify eleven people with conditions to identify and analyze the approaches and criteria.
Result: The findings of the research showed that the criteria of color preferences, spatial context, citizens' participation, mental image, color perception in the decision-making and urban management system are among the most important criteria affecting the subject of the research. The importance of using color in promoting attachment is influenced by the environmental context, which can lead to the observance of principles such as the presence of citizens in the context of participation. In order to improve the situation of spatial attachment in connection with the color palettes of Tehran metropolis, strategies have been presented in the fields of urban management and design, citizens' participation, and creativity and innovation.

Currently, one of the main problems of cities is the emptying of the spirit of life in them and in their urban spaces. For this reason, providing vitality and urban vitality has become one of the main concerns of urban management systems. Today, in developed countries, attention to the presence of people in urban spaces plays a key role in the design and planning of cities, and the important key to achieving sustainable, successful and lively cities is to pay attention to the role of people and their needs. In modern urban development, what should be placed at the top of all planning and design matters is to provide a humane and dignified environment for the presence of citizens. Managers and urban planners all over the world are trying to face urban problems and problems with an integrated look at all dimensions in cities, provide different approaches for the development of today's cities in order to respond to the new demands and expectations of the present age. One of the new approaches and concepts in today's urban planning is the smart city and the use of new information and communication technologies (ICT). A city that is 24 hours a day and the affairs of the city are going on in it all day and night. A smart city is a citizen-centered city in which information and communication technology (ICT) is used for better efficiency of existing resources and facilities, improving the quality of life of citizens and moving towards sustainable urban development. The process of this research, based on the descriptive-analytical method and with the help of library tools, examines the opinions related to the smart city, its dimensions and indicators. The results of this research show that the use of modern information and communication technologies in the urban spaces of the smart city can play a significant role for the presence and interactions of citizens, and as a result, the vitality of urban spaces. The urban space where vitality indicators are placed in the dimensions of a smart city and in addition to complying with the principles of a smart city, it includes the promotion of vitality in urban spaces.

In order to increase grain yield, nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) and nitrogen apparent recovery fraction (NARF) in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), this experiment was carried out with 5 or 6 treatments and 3 or 4 replications in 14 locations at 22 different sites in Iran during the 2004-05 growing season. The experiment was designed as a completely randomized block. The effect of N sources and timing on the grain yield, protein content, NUE and NARF of the current best adapted cultivars of different regions were evaluated. The treatments included T1= the control; T2= 150 kg ha-1 of N as urea in 3-split applica-tions; T3= 150 kg ha-1 of N as urea in 2-split applications; T4= 150 kg ha-1 N as SCU as the base fertilizer; T5= 1/3 N as SCU as the base fertilizer +2-split urea applications and T6=1/3 N as complete fertilizer as the base fertilizer +2-split urea applications. Protein content, NUE and NARF were calculated by measuring grain yield, N% and N-uptake. While the average grain yield and protein% for the control plots were 2,840 kg ha-1 and 10.03%; the yield and protein for T2, T3 and T4 were 4,160 kg ha-1 and 11.66%; 4,278 kg ha-1 and 11.78%; and 3,921 kg ha-1 and 11.60%, respectively. Grain yield and protein content for T5 were 4,330 kg kg-1 and 11.89%. Yield of 4,674 kg ha-1 and protein content of 12.01% were ob-tained by substituting complete fertilizer with 1/3 urea (T6). The grain yield for T6 was significantly different from T2 for various reasons, including higher levels of available P, K, S, Zn, lower N-leaching and appropriate N-timing. NUE for T2, T3, T4, T5, and T6 was measured to be 8.8, 9.6, 7.3, 9.9, and 12.2 kg kg-1, respectively, and NARF were calculated to be 23.2, 25.3, 19.4, 26.3 and 31.6%, respectively. While the superiority of complete and SCU fertilizers over pre-plant urea has been proven, especially in the light-textured soils, it is highly recommended that the experiment be further tested and evaluated, since this practice has been increased the grain yield up to 12%, NUE up to 39 kg kg-1 and NARF up to 36% in comparison with the best wheat growers’ N-fertilization practice.

Objective: Despite availability of an effective vaccine against hepatitis B virus (HBV), the global prevalence of this virus infection has not diminished significantly. Contrary to numerous other human viruses, HBV does not have the ability to propagate in cell culture. However, infectious virus has been produced by transfection of human hepatoma cells with plasmids that contain full length HBV genome. Generation and optimization of appropriate cell culture systems can help us in demonstrating the quality of genome replication by PCR as well as expression of surface antigen secretion. Interferon stimulating genes (ISGs) are usually produced in response to interferon and can be determined as a measure of response to IFN-therapy. Therefore, in pharmacological studies, in addition to assessing the effects of a medicine on viral determinants of replication, its’ effects on stimulation of various ISGs, as indicators of innate immune responses, can be achieved. Methods: In this study, we transfected the Huh-7 hepatoma cell line with pCH-9/3091. HBsAg production and viral mRNA transcription were subsequently evaluated. In this system, by using ISGs-specific primers, the ISG mRNAs recognition method was optimized and utilized. Results: Huh-7 cells supported HBV replication. The peak HBsAg secretion was observed at 72 h post-transfection. By using designed primers for the S and pg/pC regions, transcription and genome replication of the virus was shown. RT-PCR results for ISG production by transfected cells showed no role for HBV in enhancement of ISGs levels in Huh-7 cells. Conclusion: The results indicated that this system can be used for functional studies of HBV-specific genes as well as assessment of the effects of new drugs or new vaccines. In addition, it may be used to study the mechanisms of drug resistance that have resulted in difficulties in response to HBV antivirals, including IFN-α.

In this paper, the effect of extrusion die profile on the dimensional tolerance of a cross section of a part in a forward extrusion process was studied. In these experimental and numerical investigations, some parameters such as extrusion speed, metal flow, extrusion temperature and extrusion force were considered as process variables. The specimen was aluminium alloy 2014 with a variable wall thickness. The variable wall thickness causes the metal flow rate to be changed along the die orifice. As a result, the die which is used to produce this part must be suitable to control the flow rate of metal. In this study, two different dies were used to produce this part. In first die, to control the metal flow, variable bearing length method is used. In the second die, in addition to the bearing length method, a feeder is used in the narrow channels. From the experimental and numerical results, it was found that the first die is not good enough for manufacturing of this part. Because, the first die was not able to control uniform metal flow rate through the die orifice during the extrusion process. This drawback causes the die cavity to remain empty at the sharp corners which results a low quality and low dimensional accuracy in the product, especially in narrow channels. The numerical analysis results have shown that, the second die performance was much better than the first one. It was able to control uniform metal flow rate which causes high quality products.

The position of the planets for the planetary gear systems are in two forms of equally and unequally spaced. This paper investigates free vibration of the planetary gear with unequally spaced planets. The planetary gear set of this study is modeled as set of lumped masses and springs. Each component such as sun gear, carrier, ring gear and planets possesses three degrees of freedom and considered as rigid bodies. Bearing and mesh stiffnesses are modeled in the form of linear springs. Generally, planet, rotational, translational, distinct and degenerate modes are five vibration modes of the planetary gear systems. The results show that the translational mode for the system with numbers of even equally and unequally spaced planets, is different and rotational and translational modes have the same characteristics for the both systems. For the system with numbers of even unequally spaced planets, the natural frequencies of the translational modes have multiplicity one. When the numbers of the planets of the system are odd and the position of them is unequally spaced, the rotational and planet modes are generating and the natural frequencies of the translational modes are not appears. For the distinct and degenerate modes of the system with unequally spaced planets, the planets only have the rotational motion.

Every project has many risks and as there are many complexities in projects today, recognizing the most important risks is essential for projects' success and efficiency. In this research, we tried to determine most significant risk's categories in the framework of risk breakdown structure of 4th edition of Project Management Body of Knowledge Guide that can be generalize to all projects in Iran. With considering dependencies and interactive relations between risks of project, we used DEMATEL method to determine the most significant project risk's categories on the basis of risk breakdown structure of 4th edition of Project Management Body of Knowledge Guide. Also fuzzy set theory was applied to measure experts' subjective judgments, experts who have rich expertise and knowledge in Iranian projects were selected to evaluate the influences. The results revealed that "External", "Technical", "Project Management" and "Organizational" risks are significant and in the most important risk's category which is "External", "Regulatory" risks and in "Technical", "Project Management" and "Organizational" risks, "Technology", "Estimating" and "Project Dependencies" are the most important risks respectively and should be paid more attention because they were in the first rank of importance.

In this paper, the elastoplastic buckling of rectangular plates over the Pasternak foundation has been analyzed with the fixed and simply supported boundary conditions. Associated with the uniform loading conditions on the plate by the in- plane compression and tension, the influence of the elastic foundation is investigated in terms of two stiffness parameters; including the Winkler spring and the Pasternak shear coefficients. In order to extract governing equations, two theories are used from the plasticity: deformation theory (DT) with the Hencky constitutive relations and the incremental theory (IT) based on the Prandtl-Reuss constitutive relations. By implementing the generalized differential quadrature method to discrete the differential equations, influences of loading ratio, length to width ratio, plate thickness, and the elastic foundation characters are studied. By comparing the obtained results with the data reported in references, the accuracy of the model is verified. Consideration of results shows that applying the elastic foundation causes to increase critical buckling load. In addition, enhancing the elastic foundation parameters leads to amplifying the difference between buckling loads obtained from two theories, especially in the larger thicknesses. Moreover, according to increasing the plate thickness in the tensile state of the loading, application of the elastic foundation causes to reach plate stress to a value more than the ultimate stress of the specimen.

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a non-protein amino acid existing in bacteria, plants, and vertebrates. GABA is especially well-known because of its physiological role in the neurotransmission, induction of hypotension, diuresis, and tranquility. GABA is biologically synthesized by GABA-producing lactic acid bacteria (GLAB) which are widely used as starters in the fermented foods. In this study, GABA-producing strain were chosen to be microencapsulated by soy protein isolate (SPI)-alginate using emulsion method. Encapsulation efficiency and entrapment of GLAB into soy protein-alginate microcapsules (SAE) was confirmed by scanning electron microscope. The GABA-producing ability and survivability of the microencapsulated GLABs were investigated in the human gastro-intestinal simulant. For screening of GLAB strains, the isolates from Tarkhineh and fermented carrot were separately cultivated in MRS broth supplemented with 1% (w/v) monosodium glutamate (MSG). The GABA production efficiency was studied by thin layer chromatography (TLC) and High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). According to the recorded chromatograms, Lactobacillus brevis PML1 isolated from Tarkhineh and Lactobacillus brevis G42 from fermented carrot showed GABA producing ability of 304 mg/L and 2511 mg/L, after 30 h at 30 °C, respectively. The results indicated that survival and GABA production improved upon microencapsulating the bacteria due to the good cell protection provided by soy protein isolate-alginate coating. In long with previous reports, this study proves the potential of microencapsulation toward increased efficiency of GABA production in functional foods.

Packaging is important for the protection, storage, and hygienic handling of food as well as raw materials, particularly against oxidation and microbial spoilage. Land filling of non-degradable waste caused by plastic packaging of food is one of the most major challenges in the world, which the use of natural and degradable biopolymers, including polysaccharides, is recommended to overcome this problem. Chitosan is a polysaccharide utilized in the structure of biodegradable edible films. The main limitation associated with chitosan-based films is poor mechanical properties, high water solubility, and water vapor permeability. The objective of this study was to improve the physicochemical performance of chitosan-based films. Chitosan-based films were prepared with guar dialdehyde in various blending ratios. The FTIR spectrum of composite film displayed a peak at 1683 cm^-1 which approved the successful covalent interaction between the amino groups of chitosan and the aldehyde groups of guar dialdehyde. The optimal chitosan-dialdehyde guar gum film had the lowest solubility (20.03 %), lowest water vapor permeability (3.07 Ð 10^-10 gmm / hmm²Pa), and the highest tensile strength (48.05 MPa) compared with other films. Moreover, the diameters of the inhibition zones for the films containing 10% rosemary extract against E. coli and S. aureus bacteria were 12.75 ± 0.07, and 20.55 ± 0.21 mm, respectively. Therefore, the results showed that the developed chitosan- guar dialdehyde film containing rosemary extract can be considered as a suitable alternative in an active fresh food packaging systems.

In the recent decades the spatial reflection of post Fordist economic transition in advanced societies has created new forms of urbanization which revealed the inefficiency of hierarchical paradigm. Thus by passing from the logic of territorial organization into logic of network organization, economics of scale to external economics of network, hierarchical links and one sided to the synergistic relationships and cross of many traditional concepts; not only in terms of analytical and descriptive but even more with a normative approach placed in a new form and nature which require re-definition and re-framing. The purpose of this paper is to explain the transition from planning concepts based on hierarchy to planning on the base of polycentric- network of regional structures. The methodology of the research is based on descriptive approach by reviewing the existing literatures regarding to these two main paradigms to analysis the relevant statements. The results showed that hierarchical theory does not offer specific strategy but network theories suggest a coherent framework of cooperation among the towns in different spatial scales which can lead to competitive position of cities and regions by increasing importance in international competitions

Damage detection is a necessary part for structural health monitoring (SHM), being beneficial to SHM and determining the severity of damage. Application of statistical pattern recognition methods for SHM has gained considerable attention to detect changes in a structure. One of the advantages of these methods is that only data from undamaged state is needed in training phase (unsupervised learning) as opposed to supervised learning where data from both undamaged and damaged conditions is required to train the model. There are different approaches used by researchers and the success of a certain one may depend on the type of structure or structural changes. Most of studies focused on the application of statistical pattern recognition methodologies for SHM utilize the time series analyses for extracting damage-sensitive features. These features are statistical properties of time series models that directly depend on damage. Extracting damage-sensitive features is a fundamental step in damage detection process because pattern recognition algorithms can identify the state of structure unless these features are just dependent on damage.  The change in an environmental and operational condition during the data acquisition process is one of the problems that causes damage features to be depended on factors besides existence of damage. This can lead to incorrect structural state identification. On the other hand, after extracting damage-sensitive features, the application of a statistical novelty detection methodology for decision making on structural state is a significant topic in SHM.
This paper proposes a new application of random decrement (RD) technique in order to choose appropriate and accurate damage features which are independent from environmental and operational conditions of structure. The RD technique transforms time series data of the structural response to free decay vibration form that only consist of dynamic properties information by averaging them at specific time. Moreover, a novel statistical method named as Bhattacharyya measure is applied as a robust method for damage diagnosis. The Bhattacharyya measure determines the discrepancy between damage features from different structural states through partitioning data and utilizing numerical information of each partition. Herein, before extracting damage features, time series data are averaged through RD technique. Then the Autoregressive-Autoregressive with exogenous output model (AR-ARX) is used to fit a mathematical model to the averaged time series data and the residuals are considered as damage features. The Bhattacharyya measure is utilized for damage identification and localization. The data obtained from an experimental study on a three-story frame structure model are exploited to validate the accuracy and reliability of the proposed algorithm. Random excitation is applied by varying amplitude level of the input force, simulating various environmental and operational conditions. Damage is induced at two different locations. The proposed algorithm is conducted on data from various environmental and operational conditions at two different locations. A comparative study is also carried out to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed algorithm over some exiting techniques. Results show that the application of random decrement technique reduces the influence of operational and environmental condition due to averaging and normalizing data and correctly determines the state of structure. In addition, using Bhattacharyya measure improves the structural health monitoring results in damage identification and localization.

Nowadays, public transportation system is known as one of the most important elements of urban development. With regard to the development of public transit services, particularly the expansion of Tehran Metro system, necessity of walkability which plays an important role is clearly and noticeable. Although Tehran’s public transportation is an urgent need, this issue has not been regarded as an important need.
TOD is a novelty and different approach of traditional theory, with considering four main principles. Accordingly in this study firstly pedestrian needs and ATRs are recognized with the use of library and archives of contexts oriented descriptive and analytical research. Secondly these needs were assessed by Quality function development and also the results of these methods prioritized by Analytic Network Process. Then these (CNs) and (ATRs) around the Tajrish station are assessed by QFD and ANP methods. As a main result the Tajrish station with the implementation rate of two-third of these criteria can be used as one of the most convenient and acceptable station for pedestrians in Tehran.

Although natural law has a deontic essence and function in the paradigm of modernity, and thus prompted the passage of the traditional structure, the conceptions and analyses reconcilable with tradition are also evoked throughout the history of thought and it seems that Aristotelian natural law thought, the most famous one, is a gaze that reflects natural law based on the nature of things being the symbol of realism. Perhaps Montesquieu belongs to legal historicism and thus one cannot find a relationship between his thought and natural law, but the fact is that Montesquieu is not outside the paradigm of modernity. His concern is natural public law and why is the nature of things in his idea not another expression of spontaneous and social rationality and the freedom based on this rationality? By analyzing and critiquing Montesquieu's various conceptions of natural law, this research tries to present a conception that is reconcilable with Montesquieu's natural public law anxiety and thus makes it possible to understand his thought in the paradigm of modernity.
