Research ArticleOpen accessPhytoremediation and Adsorption of Heavy Industry Emitted from Cement Industry through Plant Leaves, Case Study: Golestan Peivand Cement FactorySoleyman Ghorbanzadeh, Meysam Madadi, Sara Abdollahi, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariCement factories are found to be one of the major causes of pollution. Cement mist and dusts depositions affect the photosynthesis, secretion and fertility of the plant. Increasing the concentration of airborne dust reduces photosynthetic potential in leaves, closes leaf stomatals and, in general, reduces the growth and fertility of plants. The purpose of this study is to determine the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 23 Nov 2020 · 6,438 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessGeochemical and Petrology Properties of Zafarghand Index and Kahang Deposit of Porphyry Copper-MolybdenumMohsen Dehghanipoodeh, Hooshang Asadi Haroni, Mahin Mansouri Esfahani et al.The probability of the occurrence of porphyry copper ore associated with subduction zone of the Neo-Tethys ocean and volcanic arc of Iran (Urumieh-Dokhtar) justifies the necessity of exploration and prospection of this type of ore in Iran. Zafarghand index and Kahang deposit of porphyry copper-molybdenum located in Isfahan province, center of Iran using Satellite data interpretations were discovered in the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 19 Nov 2020 · 6,796 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessUsing Linear Chouquet Integral Algorithm to Design Optimal Time-Cost Model in Large Construction ProjectsHamid Jafari Nia, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari, Hamidreza BabaaliNowadays, the problem of scheduling and executing projects with the least cost and time has become one of the main concerns of project managers. In this regard, researchers have used different methods and patterns. One of these methods is to use concurrent engineering in projects. Simultaneous engineering means the creation of a project schedule for projects based on existing units … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 18 Nov 2020 · 6,686 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAnalysis of Trends in Daily and Overnight Temperature Over Iran's Zayanderud River BasinAli Zahraei, Sara Saadati, Saeid Eslamian, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariDaily and overnight temperature trends in annual time-scale for Zayanderud river basin using 37 meteorological stations were studied. According to the results the majority of trends in the time series of daily and overnight temperature were increasing. Warming trends in the overnight temperature were stronger than those in the daily temperature. The average of all stations in the daily and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 4 Aug 2020 · 6,960 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessSolutions to Managing Drought and Reducing DemandsSaeid Eslamian, Saleh Tarkesh Esfahani, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariConserving and saving water during droughts need a special attitude and great attention. Because according to a variety of studies conducted, nowadays our demand and need for water far exceed the amount of water resources available in different areas. As a result, in order to cope with this crisis, it is necessary to use water-recycling systems, reduce demands, employ optimal … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 29 Jul 2020 · 6,973 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessThe Multiple Tuned Mass Damper for Passive Control of Structures by Cuckoo AlgorithmHamid Jafari Nia, Amir Hossein Heidari, Hamid Reza Babaali, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariAdjustable mass dampers are recently used to reduce seismic vibrations of engineering structures. Function of these types of systems requires a suitable setting of their parameters. In this study, a practical method to design Multiple Tuned Mass Dampers (MTMD) has been proposed to minimize the maximum displacement of roof, acceleration of roof and TMDs displacement to reduce the seismic response … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 16 Jul 2020 · 7,392 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvolutionary Structural Optimization of Wind Bracing Connection Plates in Steel StructuresReza Kasiri, Saeid Eslamian, Theodore C. Crusberg et al.Evolutionary Structural Optimization (ESO) is one of the rules in structural engineering which has received much attention by the researchers. Today, the reduction of construction cost and weight is an important issue in the structure design. The optimization phenomenon is pursuing to fulfill this objective. Thus, presenting a design which could be both safe and economic is of special significance. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 15 Jul 2020 · 6,968 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEstimation of Natural and Artificial Recharge of Shahreza Plain Groundwater in Isfahan Using CRD and Hantush ModelsMohsen Nekooei, Jahangir Abedi Koupai, Saeid Eslamian et al.Cumulative Rainfall Departure model (CRD) is widely used for estimation of ground natural recharge. This model is based on the groundwater balance and it requires random parameters. Moreover, an increase in the static level under artificial recharge facility is simulated using diffusion equations. Since Shahreza Plain is located in an arid and semi-arid area and given that rainfall is the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 17 Jun 2020 · 6,797 accessesView PDF Cite
