In referral ads, the customer receives the ad from someone he or she knows beforehand and gives him or her more confidence in knowing that the person in question is not the ad recipient. The purpose of the present study is to identify the factors influencing the likelihood of a customer being advertised and accepting referral advertising on the social network of Instagram. The research method is by nature in the category of Mixed Method (qualitative and quantitative). In the first stage, 8 variables were identified as influencing factors on the likelihood of advertising referrals through interviewing social network users on Instagram and analyzing interview codes with the Thematic Analysis approach: Social Media Characteristics, Product Characteristics, Intermediary Role, Consumer Demographic Characteristics, Content Characteristics, Reference Motivation, Brand Relationship Strength, and Interpersonal Relationship Strength. In the second phase, a questionnaire was developed and distributed to users of the social networking Instagram. A total of 334 questionnaires were collected and analyzed using structural equation modeling. The results showed that all these factors had a positive effect on the probability of referral and the probability of acceptance of the referral advertisement. Also regarding the moderating variables, the results showed that the two groups of youth and the gender of women had the most reaction to the model stimuli. Manuscript profile -

This is MoreThe recent literature suggestes a potential tension market orientation between and entrepreneurial proclivity in achieving superior business performance . This is unsettling for marketers , because it could mean that being market oriented is detrimental to a firm that is also trying to be entrepreneurial and successful . To examine this unnerving potential , the authors investigate structural influences (both direct and indirect ) of entrepreneurial proclivity and market orientation on business performance . The results indicate that entrepreneurial proclivity has not a positive and direct relationship on market orientation but also an indirect and positive effect on market orientation through the reduction of departmentalization . The results also suggest that entrepreneurial proclivity s performance influence is positive when mediated by market orientation , but negative or nonsignificant when not mediated by market orientation .

The importance of virtual environments such as second life has been so remarkable that we confront the creation and introduction the new currencies like linden dollar, bit coin, etc which have challenged the common currencies in the world. In this article three impacts regarding the opportunity of entering to the world of social media are being discussed that might be fruitful for the banks willing to change and involving the virtual areas desired by the digital generation. The use and gratification theory is being considered in this article and the author tries to adapt the theory to the opportunity of utilizing the social media in banking services. The goal of the research is reaching the customers of digital generation. Does the use of social media cause the reaching to digital generation customers? Does this use reduce the cost of finding new customers? Does it regain the confidence of digital generation customers? The research method is explorative dealing with library studies on social media and providing bank services considering the use and gratification theory. The findings show that using social media in providing bank services to the digital generation customers will lead to reaching these customers, reducing costs, and regaining the confidence.

One of the parameters that determine the efficiency and accuracy of the projection method is a properly selected step size. This selection is based on the contractive properties of operator which is projected on the feasible region. For example, if the Lipschitz constant is not known, we have trouble choosing step size of the algorithm. The proposed algorithm eliminates the need to know the Lipschitz constant and provides a method that facilitates step size selection.We formulate the asymmetric traffic equilibrium problem as a variational inequality on the path flows space. According to the decomposable structure of the feasible set of this model, we obtain the traffic network equilibrium state, by using the proposed algorithm. Finally, we present the numerical results of using this algorithm on the Sioux-Falls test traffic network. Manuscript profile -

That is why Identify tools and fields which enforce such process can be provide better relationships between generation in a given society and result the continuation and preservation of culture and civilization. Changes in the pattern of leisure spending as a criterion of lifestyle are one of these platforms. It has the relationships with changes in intergenerational relationships. Due to informal and selective nature of leisure time, transformation of values takes place informally. It seems that development as an indicator of progress of a given society has the relation with the type of intergenerational relationships as well as leisure pattern. The main objective of this article is to find out the relationship between level of development of province and leisure time pattern and intergenerational relationships. Manheim and Inglehart theories on value changes were applied. Survey method with 1200 sample from three groups of developed (Tehran, Isfahan), developing (Kerman, Zangan) and deprived (Sistan and Baluchestan, Kohkiloyeh and Boyerahmad) provinces were randomly interviewed. Results shows collective active leisure pattern spending with family were the main and first pattern of collective leisure among respondents. With increase in province level of development, collective active leisure pattern with family reduced and new leisure pattern i.e. virtual vacation increased. Intergenerational relationships have the relation with level of development and in deprived provinces such relation are stronger Manuscript profile -

The aim of this study is to isolate the pathogenic agent along with the precise determination of its characteristics and to examine the histopathological findings in a female iguana. During the iguana post-mortem examination, pyogranulomatous and fibronecrotic lesions were observed in various organs other than the respiratory system, and the results of the reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction were also positive. Therefore, the relationship between the observation of these extensive lesions and the Necropsy findings obtained from Previous cases of serpanovirus infection and the amount and type of changes in the genome of the serpentovirus identified with the previous serpentovirus were investigated. Cell culture inoculation and then RT-PCR was used to collect and obtain the virus isolate. Next, immunohistochemistry was performed. Staining for the nucleoprotein of the serpentine virus showed that this virus infects not only a wide range of epithelia (respiratory and gastrointestinal epithelium, hepatocytes, urinary tubules, pancreatic ducts, etc.), but also contaminates the intravascular monocytes, intralesional macrophages, and endothelial cells too. With next-generation sequencing, the complete genome for this new serpentine virus species was obtained.The analysis of the viral genome recovered from this respiratory and systemic disease associated with serpentine virus infection did not show a sequence correlation with the phenotype of other strains. The results showed that this serpentine virus has a wide cell and tissue tropism, and the course of infection by it can be different, and as a result of the systemic spread of the virus in the body, it causes lesions in a wide range of different body systems.

But the Lake has been gradually getting dried nowadays. If the Lake gets completely dried, irreparable environmental, economical and social damages would be appeared in the region. So, finding a practical solution for surviving the Urmia Lake is crucial. In the present research, it has been tried to predict the inflows of the rivers leading to the Urmia Lake, once based on the long term period’s recorded data and another time based on the recent dry period’s recorded data, by using autoregressive moving average (ARMA) time series models in order to exert the effects of the recent drought in the forecasted data. The ARMA models are developed in the MATLAB soft ware. After calibration of the created models, the predicted discharges of the basin’s rivers were entered into the simulation model of MODSIM in order to estimate the water consumptions in the basin's future condition and finally the entering flows to the Urmia Lake in each of two forecasting scenarios. Results show that in each of two forecasting scenarios of long and short periods, the environmental water right of the lake wouldn’t be supplied totally. Also, if the agricultural water consumptions would get reduced about 14% and 56% in long and short periods respectively, the lake’s water right would be supplied completely. Manuscript profile -

Article 50 of the Iranian Constitution explicitly emphasizes the protection of the environment. This principle raises many issues from a legal point of view and has a clear duty to protect the rights of the present and future generations to the right to a healthy environment and to observe intergenerational justice. In this principle, several points have been stated that are important for a more detailed study. First, there is the issue of environmental protection, in which case, the same issue of preserving and respecting the human right of society to a healthy environment is raised. Then there is the issue of intergenerational justice and identification. That is, it considers it the duty of everyone to observe fairness with current and future generations, as well as these issues, and the issue of public participation in environmental protection is raised. Like the constitution, it is necessary to be stated in this principle. In this descriptive-analytical study, an attempt has been made to examine the rights and obligations of intergenerational justice in order to achieve the goals of sustainable development (with emphasis on Article 50 of the Iranian Constitution).

Identifying the rights of future generation is an important step to achieve to sustainable development. In this regard, conservation of environment, reasonable and fair utilization of sources to reach to a distinct future that ensures the rights of future generation are supposed as the duty of international community. So, the concept of "future generation rights" that firstly entered to international arena after ratification of United Nations charter 1945 and then developed by Stockholm declaration (1972) in international environmental law. Nevertheless, the concept of "future generation rights" as a moral and normalized principle is faced with many ambiguities. In the first chapter, legal ambiguities of this concept from different aspects regarding international law are examined. In the second chapter, in order to study legal basis of this concept in international environmental law, its status in binding and non-binding law is observed .in Chapter three we try to have a look at implementation of this concept in international environmental law. At the end, in fourth chapter collecting data, conclusion and suggestions are performed to attain a better realization of this concept implementation in international environmental law.

The effects of these two pension systems have been studied in form of different fiscal policies by simulating an Overlapping Generations Model. Simulated fiscal policies are compared to a situation which society has no pension system and people spend their income only on their own consumptions or savings. The results show that in the DB-PAYG pension system, reduction of capital stock and therefore the reduction of output and level of welfare are significant. Fully-Funded pension system does not reduce the level of welfare, capital stock and production, also creating an intergenerational income distribution system. so it works better than other system. Iran's current pension system is DB-PAYG, so transferring to the Full-Funded pension system, as structural reforms, have been proposed. The dynamic of changing the pension system has been estimated and the effects of these reforms on the capital market have also been studied. The results show that structural reforms, in the long run will increase the capital stock and aggregate savings, so will increase the value and depth of the capital market, increase efficiency and corporate governance of enterprises operating in the capital market.

29 - Increase Flexibility and Improve Resilience in Smart Microgrids by Coordinating Storage Resources and Distributed Generation During Contingencies

Thus, the maintenance of voltage stability and frequency specifically in islanded mode is extremely demanding. Even if these products have efficient control system, they can’t retain microgrid stability due to the low speed of response in primary sources of energy and communication delays of the links between outer unit and control system in distributed generation. Introducing a structure of fuzzy control arranged with neural network to balance between generation part and consumption part in micro grid is the main purpose of this paper. Using the fuzzy logic, this controller enables flexible operation of microgrids in both network and islanded modes. In the proposed control system, a trainable neural network in different operating conditions is responsible for fine tuning of the fuzzy logic system. Because of the sensitivity of the loads in the microgrid the proposed structure is designed to interact with the storage source in order to increase the response speed to the imbalance between production and consumption. This might prevent excessive voltage and frequency deviation, especially in the severe situations. With this controller, fluctuations in the production of renewable resources quickly compensated without a negative impact on resilience and instability of the microgrid, especially while disconnecting from the main network Manuscript profile -

Such systems play a vital role in the protection system to detect the faults and maintain the protection coordination. Despite the fast and reliable nature of multi-agent systems, there is a possibility of poor performance especially in protection coordination schemes with heavy communication load. For this purpose, this paper presents an intelligent self-healing method under fault conditions, which provides the protection coordination in a single control level without dependence on a higher communication level. The decentralized performance of the proposed scheme is expressed by using intelligent electronic devices and distributed communication. Accordingly, the coordination is done using the high-speed point-to-point communication capability of the IEC-61850 GOOSE protocol. Also, to avoid power outages due to the protection system malfunction, an algorithm independent of DG peneration and based on GOOSE message service mechanism is proposed, which does not need a central processor. Finally, the performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated under different scenarios in a practical distribution network using ETAP software environment. Manuscript profile -

Uninterrupted service to the network customers and continuous power supply may be disrupted through various disturbances. On this basis, the network requires a completely reliable, fast, and precise protection system. The protection of distribution networks is controlled by overcurrent equipment, which is complicated with increasing penetration of distributed generation resources due to change in the direction of current. This paper investigates how these resources affect the coordinated performance of the network protection system and proposes a new solution with the aim of restoration and fixing the miscoordination problem. The proposed method could be implemented on traditional overcurrent protection equipment while being able to meet the challenge of protection coordination with the lowest cost. The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. Manuscript profile -

Current flow fluctuation, increment of fault current and as a result loss of coordination and also error in relays operation in safe sections in the network have been among the problems due to using these generations. Finding solution for these problems has always been challenging over the years. The purpose of this paper is to suggest a new solution in the study of protection system operation in electrical energy networks by using intelligent electronic equipment with communication protocols at the level of distribution networks. In recent years, telecommunications platform and intelligent equipment usage has provided a platform that has been able to show its effectiveness against network sudden changes. Multi-Agent system is the name of this communication platform that has been able to pioneer the beginning of a fundamental change in the design of protection systems in electrical energy networks by using a new scheme. These systems have shown that they have not been without problems and in some cases have caused problems for the network. In the proposed approach, the multilayer structure of the multi-agent system will be broken and the surfaces will be independent of each other. Unlike the typical multi-agent system protection method, protection settings at the moment of fault are not calculated for the entire network. This problem, which has not been seen in previous methods, also removes a large load density from the central unit and increases the operating speed and reliability of the protection system.

In order to implement DNs with DGs, some challenges should be faced, especially concerning protection issues, that may make conventional protection schemes ineffective. MAS techniques can enable the power grid to becomes smarter, reliable, selfhealing, and robust. Its decentralized nature and operational robustness make the MAS application a leading technology. Despite the fast, reliable and multi-purpose operation of MAS-based protection schemes, the inherent delay or failure of communication system must not affect the vital role of fault clearing, i.e., the ever-increasing DGs in DNs as well as network size increase has resulted in a heavy communication burden yielding to delay or even failure in communication. In this paper, an Intelligent protection algorithm is presented that protect the grid, when the connection between agents is lost, by using point-to-point communication between relay agents in the first layer of the MAS. Reduction of the agents used and no need to connect to the higher layers of the MAS are the benefits of this method. For simulation, 16 bus Test DN is used, that The results confirm the applicability of the proposed model for grid protection coordination. Manuscript profile -

In active distribution networks, due to the presence of distributed generations at different levels of distribution network, the functionality of the conventional protection strategies are partially or totally are affected. Therefore, the protection strategies should be updated, and the conventional protective schemes and characteristics should be changed. In this paper, first, the potential protection issues raised of active distribution networks are reviewed. Among the challenges, the bidirectional flow of the fault current, the increased amplitude of fault current, the dependency of the fault current on the operating point, the reduction of reach of the relays, the blinding of the protective relay, unwanted islanding, and etc. are reviewed. Then, the performance of the conventional protections including fuses, overcurrent relays, reclosers under such conditions has been investigated. Furthermore, the existing modified protection methods in the literature are examined, which are classified into two general categories of (i) protective relays with unconventional characteristics, and (ii) adaptive protective relays. Finally, the studied different methods are compared with each other, and their performance characteristics are evaluated. Manuscript profile -

Beside many benefits, these generations impose challenges to the electric system. Two main challenges investigated in this article are related to the impact of DGs on the Protective Devices (PDs) coordination and the transient stability of these resources at the fault time incidence. As for Synchronous-based Distributed Generations (SBDGs), the challenge of protection coordination arises from the injection current rate of these generations under fault circumstances and the transient stability challenge is due to the low inertia constant. In proposed method, by shifting the relay characteristic curve downwards and repositioning the curve below the Critical Clearing Time (CCT), not only the coordination of the PDs will be improved, but also the instability of SBDGs will be eliminated. This paper presents a modified time-current-voltage characteristic curve for the overcurrent relays. The simulation results done by ETAP software confirm the effective performance of the proposed method. Manuscript profile -

To solve this challenge, the 2m+1 Point Estimation Method (PEM) is used to accurately evaluate the system's uncertainties with low computational complexity. The 2m+1 PEM is a fast uncertainty analysis method based on the Taylor series. This method considers the uncertainty of renewable energy sources, the cooling, electrical and thermal loads, and the exchange price with different upstream energy distribution networks. This paper also presents a new self-adaptive optimization method called the Self-adaptive Modified Slime Mold optimization Algorithm (SMSMA) to solve the complex nonlinear problem of optimal daily scheduling of an energy hub. The improved self-adaptive method is based on the wavelet theory, which improves the capability and ability of the original slime mold algorithm to solve the daily optimal scheduling problem of an integrated energy hub. Numerical results show that the proposed daily stochastic scheduling framework, together with the proposed SMSMA algorithm, effectively reduces the operating costs of energy hubs.

In this paper, a mathematical model is presented to show the effects of preventive actions. In the proposed model, as soon as the accident is predicted, by predicting the exit of the damaged lines in the network using the Monte Carlo method, post-accident failure scenarios are generated. Then, in order to reduce the volume of calculations, scenario reduction is done using Gams. In the last stage, by implementing the proposed model, the optimal location for the installation of portable distributed generation sources and the repair team is determined. The simulation on different case studies shows that using proposed method results in considerable reduction of the energy not supplied (ENS) and the time of power outage for loads, which shows the good performance of the proposed method in facing to future disaster.

This will inevitably require the need to review the functioning of the system of protection and re-coordination of the relevant equipment. Because the lack of an appropriate coordination between the DG units connected to a distribution system could lead to the exchange of power between these units and the system's instability, improper operation of the system of protection or the unintended islanding of a part of the system. Due to the fact that synchronous machine type DGs (SMDGs) are the most problematic for system coordination (over-current relays) than other types of DGs; in this paper, controlling the output current of generators Synchronization is proposed by tap changer of the transformer connected to it. In this method, the SMDG's participation in the flow of error is limited by the control of the pincer. Before the fault occurred and in accordance with the system conditions, the transformer tapping device connected to the synchronous generator has been changed and it reduces the flow during an error. This strategy, in addition to reducing the generation error of the generators and transformer assembly installed as a dispersed generation source, also increases the permeability coefficient of these sources. The proposed technique is implemented on a sample distribution system in the ETAP software; the results of the simulation show the effectiveness of the proposed method. Manuscript profile -

Thus, in power system studies, microgrids which may have numerous distributed generation units should be modelled and simulated that is very time consuming and complex.

In this paper, a new method for dynamic equivalencing of microgrids that includes inverter-based generation units and DSTATCOMs is proposed. The proposed equivalent model is a physical one which includes components such as equivalent converter, controller, resistance, reactance and equivalent load. Using the measurement data at the point of common coupling and utilizing optimization procedure, the parameters of the equivalent model will be identified.

The e MoreToday, one of the most important challenges of power network operators and designers is to find a suitable solution to deal with the increasing presence of distributed generations in distribution networks for abnormal operating conditions such as fault conditions. The existence of environmental and economic advantages of distributed generations has led to the expansion of the use of distributed resources, especially renewable resources, and as a result, changes in the topology of the power system and becoming an active network at the level of the distributed network. Despite the existence of many advantages of distributed resources, this issue has caused disruption in the performance of the protection equipment of the distribution network to the point where the conventional methods of modifying the protection settings are not responsive. In this article, there is a comprehensive review on new solutions in the field of modifying and restoring the protection system of distribution networks in the presence of distributed generations. For this purpose, the performance of the protection system has been evaluated.

This study proposes an objective function to locate and determine the optimal size in DG systems. The objective function is based on increasing the voltage profile, reducing power loss, and improving economic efficiency using an arithmetic optimization algorithm (AOA). The proposed approach uses the lowest losses and improvement of the voltage profile level after injecting power into the system in distribution networks and sub-transmission networks to determine and locate the optimal size in DG systems. This research has been implemented on an IEEE 33-bus network using AOA, and the results are compared with genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO). The results show that the proposed approach is superior to other optimization methods in locating and determining the optimal size, power loss, and cost function in DG systems. For example, AOA has obtained more profit than PSO and GA, 33.4% and 32.8%, respectively. In particular, the results show that AOA has a higher convergence speed in finding the optimal location in DG systems. Manuscript profile -

Sex pheromone plays an important role in tracking and controlling this pest and is inevitable to get the best time for spraying and prevent indiscriminate spraying. In this study, changes in the population density of grape-eating larvae and the peak time of insect flight in different generations of the species were investigated by installing pheromone traps in the garden of Kashmar Research Center in Khorasan Razavi province through 2020. In this study, four peak points of adult insect flight were recorded. The first flight peak was reached on April 15, and then reached the peak of the second flight with a decrease on June 3, and after this peak on July 7, the peak of the third flight occurred, and finally on September 5, the fourth peak of the flight was observed. After the last peak, due to the gradual decrease in temperature and lowering of the average temperature from the minimum thermal threshold, the flight activity of moths decreased and from mid-October onwards, the trap hunting stopped. The results also showed that the highest percentage of damage was related to the third generation and the lowest percentage of damage was related to the first generation L. botrana. It is recommended that the first specific spraying against grape clusters in the region for the second and third generations could be 5-7 days after the formation of the flight peak.

Energy losses in this section is vital and must be calculated appropriately. In this study, the network of distribution with low working pressure is examined. A network sample of natural gas is investigated using analitical solution of a steady flow of natural gas. Flow equations initially provided for a tube considering all parameters. Then, using the existing rules in pipe networks the network sample is analyzed. Effect of tube material as an important factor on network performance are evaluated and analyzed And finally, the rate of entropy generation in steel and polyethylene pipes were compared. The results show that by increasing the diameter or decreasing the gas flow rate, the tube material and friction coefficient is less effective on entropy generation in practice. Furthermore, the gas flow in lower diameters cause more entropy production using steel pipes in compare with polyethylene pipes. Manuscript profile -

The fluid flow inside the cylinder is laminar and the outer cylinder is rotating. The temperature of the outer cylinder is higher and the temperature difference of the two cylinders is always constant. (Result show) Adding nanoparticles to the base fluid at constant boundary conditions has very little effect on the temperature distribution. As the Brinkman number increases, the entropy generation increases where using nanoparticles in the base fluid decreases entropy generation. Friction and heat transfer effects on the total entropy has been studied. It has been shown viscous dissipation is more effective in entropy generation. Extracted results shows that as the Reynolds number increase, the amount of entropy generation increases, and adding nanoparticles lead to the increase of Nusselt number up to 30 percent.

The left vertical wall of the enclosure is examined in two modes: constant temperature heating and linear temperature heating and the cold wall of the enclosure in three different forms (a) diagonal, (b) curved and (c) smooth. The effect of parameters such as Hartmann number, nanoparticle volume concentration, heat generation/absorption coefficient, cold wall shape and type of wall heating on the nature of flow and heat transfer is evaluated. The results show that in all cases, increasing the Hartmann number and heat generation/absorption coefficient decrease the Nusselt number. The effect of Hartmann number in different states is different. The highest heat transfer also occurs when the vertical wall has a constant temperature. The effect of the magnetic field is greater when the cold wall is smooth. The effect of adding nanoparticles to the base fluid on decreasing or increasing the average Nusselt number depends on the Hartmann number and heat generation/absorption coefficient.

For this purpose, cost and parametric objective functions will be formulated for this problem. A new technique has been proposed to solve the problem of unbalanced load distribution. Group Search Engine Optimization (GSO) algorithm is one of the new particle intelligence techniques that in this paper, this algorithm has been improved and the results have been analyzed. The simulations will be performed on two real sample networks in northwestern Iran and the IEEE standard. Each target function will be tested on one of the networks. For each network, two placement scenarios are proposed: DG resource counting and determination of the number of DG units. In the case study process, the results of the proposed improved GSO algorithm are compared with the results of simple GSO algorithms and particle swarm optimization (PSO). Manuscript profile -

The method of the current research is applied-descriptive and survey type. The statistical population of this research includes parents and their children who were studying in the second period of secondary school in Kerman city in 2016-2017, and their number was 5000. The random sampling method was simple, and 357 people were selected as a statistical sample. In this research, Huang's digital divide questionnaire (2003), Keyes' social health questionnaire (2004) and Walker's health promoting lifestyle questionnaire (1997) were used. SPSS software was used for data analysis and hypothesis testing. In examining the relationship between the intergenerational digital divide and social health, considering the negative correlation coefficient (value -0.724), it is clear that the relationship between these two indicators is inverse and significant. That is, with the increase in the digital gap between generations, the social health of students also decreases. In the examination of the relationship between the intergenerational digital divide and the unusual lifestyle, it can be seen that the relationship between these two components is positive and significant, according to the sign of the correlation coefficient (value 0.598). That is, with the increase of the digital divide between generations, the lifestyle will also change from traditional to modern, which will be unusual for students of the entire society.

Statistical population included people 15 to 34 years old of both genders located in different neighborhoods of Sanandaj of whom 250 people were elected through combined sampling methods. The consequences of the study revealed that the young generation in Sanandaj have got significant democratic political culture characteristics. Although based on the results, they support gender equality, but in term of political comprehension and interests which is one of the characteristics for democratic political culture a low score has been obtained, but they are participatory in the term of civil and collective life. Another findings of the study that should be highly considered is the low rate of political reliability of young people that If it is not examined, it could be a serious alarm for the legitimacy of the future political system. Based on the consequences, the political culture of the young people has passed the process of change, in other words, while it is the representation of democratic political culture, it blurts an amalgamation of indifferent an pragmatic cultures.

This problem has been obvious in our current society since recent decades so that Supreme Leader considers it as a kind of threat in his speech. Is childbearing a nature pertinence of matrimony or something following that? The main question in this study organizes the article. The author in this bibliotheca article which is written by analytical-descriptive method believes that childbearing is beyond the nature pertinence of matrimony or something following that hence, one of the solutions for this challenge is that parents converse childbearing and the number of children after matrimony to a legal obligation by an espousal addition condition. In order to gain this purpose, simplifying marriage and promoting religious training and obtaining life facilities are inevitable. Manuscript profile -

Among the many solutions, consumption pattern management is considered one of the most popular. For this purpose, this study was conducted in Fanuj city of Sistan and Baluchestan province as one of the most critical cities in Iran. The study was descriptive and analytical in a survey and correlational manner. The required sample was selected using 300 Cochran's formula. According to this sample size, 95% confidence level and 5% standard error rate were determined. The data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed using t-test, one-way analysis of variance and correlation test in SPSS software. The results showed that among the methods of controlling water consumption, the highest effect is related to changing people's attitudes, especially the attitudes of young people. So that young people, by creating a flow in social networks, not only make the biggest changes, but also have the highest effect on changing the attitude of families. According to the study, students reduced their per capita consumption from 151 liters per day to about 140 liters over a six-month period. Therefore, it is recommended to pay more attention to this group in future policies. Manuscript profile -

The biosynthesized nanocomposite cotton fabrics (NCFs) were analysed by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) associated Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) and Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) methods. The shape and mean size of AgNPs in NCFs were found to be globular and 82 nm, respectively and their formation in NCFs was established by SEM studies. EDX analysis established the presence of silver metal. The XRD analysis revealed that the obtained silver based nanoparticles were crystalline in nature. The TG and DTG analysis showed that the obtained NCFs were thermally stable. These NCFs exhibited good antibacterial activity against Gram negative (G-ve) Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) and Gram positive (G+ve) Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus) bacteria. The mechanical properties such as modulus, tensile strain and stress of NCFs were also tested, utilizing universal testing machine (UTM). The modulus was found to be 276.4 MPa. These NCFs can be used in medicine for making antibacterial napkins, wound dressing bandage cloth, etc., and as packaging materials. Manuscript profile -

For this purpose, the General Equilibrium model of Overlapping Generations is designed based on the variables of the Iran economy. The results showed that the Full Funded pension system performs better than other systems in terms of capital stock, output and welfare. Also, among these three systems, the DB-PAYG system has the lowest amount of capital stock, output and welfare. Therefore, changing the current pension system of the country to a Full Funded pension system has been proposed as a reformed fiscal policy. Manuscript profile -

In order to achieve an accurate model, the use of a probability density function to predict the wind speed and solar irradiance is proposed. On the other hand, in order to resolve the power produced from the wind and the solar renewable uncertainty of sources, the use of demand response programs with the participation of residential, commercial and industrial consumers is proposed. In this paper, we recommend the use of incentive-based payments as price offer packages in order to implement demand response programs. Results of the simulation are considered in three different cases for the optimization of operational costs and emissions with/without the involvement of demand response. The multi-objective particle swarm optimization method is utilized to solve this problem. In order to validate the proposed model, it is employed on a sample smart micro-grid, and the obtained numerical results clearly indicate the impact of demand side management on reducing the effect of uncertainty induced by the predicted power generation using wind turbines and solar cells.

In these studies, the optimization of control devices and compensators that are aimed at improving the technical aspects of micro-grid has not been considered. Therefore, in this paper, these goals are considered simultaneously. In this paper the shunt capacitor, shunt reactor, static var compensator, load ratio control transformer, step voltage regulator and power generation of DGs are investigated as control variables with the aim of considering costs, losses and voltage profile improvement. The case under study is a distribution test system including 22 buses, which consists of photovoltaic and fuel cell. All network data is extracted from a real system. As a result, the system can completely represent a real system. In order to complete the study of the system, the emissions of fuel cells are considered in the objective function. The efficiency and output electrical and thermal power of the fuel cell are considered related to part load ratio as a real standard model introduced in previous studies. Manuscript profile -

In this paper, a suitable solution, independent of relay settings, is presented in order to solve the protection problems of inverter island microgrids with circular arrangement. The presence of distributed inverter generation sources causes a change in the direction and amplitude of the fault current at the microgrid level. This problem is more visible in microgrids with circular arrangement. Therefore, conventional protection schemes that consider a single path and a high fault current level compared to load current may be problematic. An important factor for the proper design of a protective system for microgrids is the contribution of the injecting fault current of the inverter sources. In this paper, a protection strategy based on the inverter control of sources is presented and ordinary overcurrent relays with the same characteristic curve are used. When a short circuit fault occurs in the microgrid, an adaptive current limiting strategy is applied using the virtual impedance loop. In this case, the share of fault current of each source is controlled according to the position of the fault, and sources closer to the fault produce a larger fault current. Therefore, the current passing through the protective equipment is closer to the fault than other equipment in the micro grid. And without the need for making connection between protective equipment, the protective coordination is guaranteed. Manuscript profile -

Installation of capacitors and distributed generations (DGs) in distribution systems has many benefits, such as improving the reliability as well as reducing the power loss, however, includes high investment costs. Hence, the maximum use of these benefits highly depends on choosing suitable locations for installation. In this paper, the Success Rate Group Search Algorithm (SRGSO) is used for optimal placement and sizing of DG sources and capacitor banks simultaneously in distributed systems. The used objective function includes costs of Expected interruption (ECOST), Energy Not Supplied (ENS), active power losses and DG and capacitor investment, operation and maintenance. To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm in finding the optimal solution, various capacitor and DG placement scenarios are simulated on the IEEE 33-bus radial distribution test system. The simulation results show that the proposed method is more effective and has higher capability for solving the problem of capacitor and DG placement, compared to previously proposed methods. Using the proposed method in this paper, the value of active power losses as well as bus voltage profile are improved more than other investigated methods. Manuscript profile -

Due to the right-of-way, environmental, economical and other restrictions, the connection of this type of DGs to the preferred point of the distribution network is very difficult or in some cases impossible. Therefore, because of non-optimal locations, they may cause a voltage rise at the Points of Common Coupling (PCCs). In this paper, a coordinated design of Switchable Capacitor Banks (SCBs) with dynamic reconfiguration of the distribution network is proposed to avoid low and high voltage violations. For this purpose, distribution network reconfiguration is implemented to mitigate voltage rise at PCCs and Capacitor Banks (CBs) to solve the low voltage problem. A novel method is presented for determining the optimal size of CBs. The proposed Capacitor Sizing Method (CSM) effectively determines the optimal values of reactive power for the given nodes. The optimal locations of SCB are determined using particle swarm optimization algorithm. The 24–hour reactive power curve optimized by the proposed method plays a pivotal role in designing SCBs. The simulation results show that the implementation of the dynamic network reconfiguration and SCBs placement is required to maintain a standard voltage profile for better employment of DG embedded distribution networks.

The increased penetration of EVs imposes a large variable load to the grid. However, the battery of EVs in an aggregator provides a large source of energy storage. Therefore, EVs depending on the charging or discharging modes can act as flexible loads or as flexible energy sources. Then, the proper coordination and control charging and discharging of EVs, using vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology, not only can minimize the undesirable effects resulting from the increased penetration of EVs, but also can improve the voltage profile. In this paper, a new algorithm with variable-objective function is proposed to control variable quantities of generation and consump­tion. In the proposed method, the control of the point of common connection (PCC) voltage in a specific value of a determined permissible range, which depends on different operating conditions, can be considered as a variable-objective function. Moreover, there are constraints to state of charge (SOC) of electric vehicles (EVs) batteries and charging/discharging time. Other advantages of using the proposed method are the reduction of network losses in peak load hours and the establishment of an appropriate coordination between charging and discharging EVs. The simulations of the IEEE 14-Bus distribution system with V2G capabilities based on the proposed variable-objective function (VOF) algorithm are implemented for both charging and discharging modes using MATLAB/PSAT software and tested for the various scenarios. Finally, the results of the proposed method are compared with the traditional method and the merit of that is proved. Manuscript profile -

Given that the presence of distributed generation resources as well as network restructuring has always been a concern for network managers, so it is expected that with the introduction of smart equipment and capabilities that provide network managers, better performance and maintenance They help. Intelligent devices are able to exchange information by communicating on a telecommunications platform. The purpose of this paper is to coordinate the protection relays in the presence of distributed generation sources by removing the connection between the relay agents and the information collected from the entire network by the central controller. The proposed method, in addition to improving the speed of the traditional multi agent system protection system, increases the security of the protection system and eliminates the need for information from one agent of one section to the agents of another sections.

Also, due to the fact that in the most MG systems the frequency controllers are centralized in the control room and, the DGs are located at distances from the control room, the occurrence of delay is undeniable and it should be considered in the design of the controller. For this purpose, a self-tuning fuzzy PID controller has been designed for load frequency control in a MG system in the presence of delay. The designed fuzzy PID controller is a nonlinear controller and can handle the nonlinearities. To deal with the delay in the input of the system, the Ziegler-Nichols like criteria has been utilized to derive the adaptive mechanism which tunes the scaling factors according to the maximum amount of delay in the online manner. The proposed self-tuning fuzzy PID controller has been applied for load frequency control of a time-delay MG system and the simulation results have been compared with the results of fixed structure fuzzy PID controller. The simulation results indicate the efficiency of the proposed controllers in dealing with time-varying delay. Manuscript profile -

The purposes of this research are reducing the losses, improving the voltage profile and equalizing the feeder load balancing in a distribution system. Invasive Weed Optimization (IWO) is used to simultaneously reconfigure and identify the optimal capacity and location for installation of DG units in the distribution network. In order to facilitate the algorithm for multi-objective search ability, the optimization problem is formulated for minimizing fuzzy performance indices. The multi-objective optimization problem is transformed into a fuzzy inference system (FIS), where each objective function is quantified into a set of fuzzy objectives selected by fuzzy membership functions. The proposed method is validated using the IEEE 33 bus test system at nominal load. The obtained results prove this combined technique is more accurate and has an efficient convergence property compared to other intelligent search algorithms. Also, the obtained results lead to the conclusion that multi-objective reconfiguration along with placement of DGs can be more beneficial than separate single-objective optimization.

Constructivist approach provides best comprehension of social disasters caused by generation gap and its’ aspects. In this approach, the role of different factors; such as social networks on the process of social disasters is examined. However today social networks are one of the important arms of enemy for generation gap, social multi-polarization and weakness of national and political unity. For management of social disasters caused by generation gap, crisis-inducing social demands should be distinguished from organized crimes against public security and for prevention from changing a generation gap to identity gap and improvement of social security, using delinquency prevention criminological approaches is necessary.

So the aim of this study is to find out whether the second generation CPTED principles in the Islamic texture of Fahadan neighborhood have been effective in sense of security or not? In this study, indicators of community culture, connectivity, threshold capacity and social cohesion are used as second-generation CPTED principles and the sense of security is used as dependent variable. This is a survey research and was conducted through a questionnaire survey. By using probability sampling (kokran method), 364 residents living in Islamic texture of Fahadan were selected. The T-test was used to check whether there is a sense of security in this context or not. In the next step, according to the types of variables, Pearson correlation test was used. The results showed that level of Fahadan neighborhood sense of security with an average of 3.62 on the Likert scale has a suitable situation but this indicator has completely inverse relationship with second generation CPTED principles in the Islamic texture. The results in terms of analyzing sense of security according to sex showed that men, unlike women are feeling more secure in Islamic texture according to these principles. By analyzing the results, it became clear that the existing sense of security in the Islamic texture was not related to second generation CPTED principles and the cause of it should be in other fields.

Thus, studying the process of formation of museums as the means to sustain such records could elucidate the viewpoints and reactions of different communities and societies throughout history. This study aims to further probe the historical evolution of museums from two aspects. To achieve this goal, a qualitative research approach has been used to study the process of the evolution of museums. Data has been gathered through library resources and the type of this data is based on historical, interpretive, and formal grounds. This evolution has been focused on from different aspects. Furthermore, the relation between the demands of the communities in each era and the circumstances of the formation of the museums is studied. Subsequently, a comparative study has been attempted between the different selected museums as representatives of each era. The study concludes that the structural and formal alterations of museums since the formation of ancient temples to the present day are deeply influenced by the rhythm of changes in structure, purpose, and audience. With an increase in the pace of alterations, mankind has been more eager to record these changes. What is more, as a reminiscent of history, museums, implementing the means and methods at their disposal, could enrich the process of education and upgrade their role more influential means reaching a wider range of society.

And the inner belief in the fundamental human rights and the high dignity of man has been raised and paid attention to in the most important global and regional organizations; and therefore, promoting and respecting these privileges, in the field of supporting the preservation of these regulations, despite many obstacles, many of which are summarized in the "sovereignty of governments", has traveled a very difficult path. In this article, we are trying to answer this question by using the descriptive-analytical method: can guaranteeing and legal guarantees for individual freedoms in the first generation of human rights in Iran in the light of the rule of law, can guarantee individual rights? In this regard, we will examine the theories of the declaration of human rights, the legal laws of the first generation of human rights; And we have reached various findings, such as fundamental human freedoms, declarations of the first generation of human rights, human rights and citizenship in Iran, the rule of law in Iran, the rule of law and human freedom, and the executive guarantee of human rights in Iran.

In this study, we survey bacterial community structure in sediments from saline wetland in south of Halghe Dare hills as one of the hypersaline ecosystems in Alborz province. Materials & Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed by sampling from saline wetland in south of Halghe Dare hills in June 2018. Isolation of heterotrophic bacteria was conducted using R2A agar medium. After differentiation of isolates based on morphological and biochemical characteristics, identification and phylogenetic relationships analysis of selected isolates were performed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and analysis using NCBI databases and bioinformatics softwares. The Illumina next-generation sequencing was also applied to survey bacterial diversity by cultivation-independent method. Results: Isolates included 13 species belonging to 8 genera including Bacillus (31.25%), Halomonas 25%, Gracilibacillus (12.50%), Virgibacillus (6.25%), Streptomyces (6.25%), Nitratireductor (6.25%), staphylococcus (6.25%) and Planococcus (6.25%). Illumina sequencing showed that Aneurinibacillus migulanus and Paenibacillus polymyxa were dominant species insoil sample. Conclusion: The results showed that the microbial population of the studied wetland is similar to the community of the wetlands reported in other parts of the world and dominated by halotolerant and halophilic species. Presence of various bacterial species and some probable novel taxonomic groups in saline wetland in south of Halghe Dare hills presents a new genetic and microbial source for future studies.

In the present study, the effects of chlorpyrifos and deltamethrin pesticides on soil microbial diversity in different salinities were investigated.Materials and methods: Four soil samples with various salinities (0, 1%, 2% and 4%) were contaminated with 200 mg/kg of chlorpyrifos and deltamethrin. Then, the effects of these compounds were investigated by culture-dependent and Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) methods. The dominant bacterial strains were isolated and compared with the results of the NGS method.Results: Remarkable groups of active soil species were destroyed. The main groups at the phylum level were, Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes and Actinobacteria. Examination of the pattern of operational taxonomic unit (OTU) showed that the lowest abundance belonged to the group of soil samples contaminated with chlorpyrifos and the highest abundance belonged to the non-contaminated sample. Alpha diversity analysis revealed that the highest number of strains was observed in non-saline and uncontaminated soil microcosms, and the lowest number of strains was observed in the presence of deltamethrin (1% salinity) and chlorpyrifos (0% salinity).Conclusion: The results indicated that soil salinity had significant impact on the resistance of soil microorganisms to the chlorpyrifos and deltamethrin. Every soil samples will have its own microbial composition based on its physicochemical conditions under the influence of pesticide contamination. By comparison of microbial composition by culture-dependent and molecular-based methods, almost similar findings were obtained. Manuscript profile -

In th MoreBackground & Objective: Nayband Gulf is subjected to oil pollution due to the proximity to Assaluyeh industrial region. Prolonged exposure to contaminants affects the microbial population and shifts the population to the predominance of oil-degrading microbes. In this study, we investigate the microbial diversity in Nayband Gulf waters and predict the genes involved in aromatic hydrocarbon degradation under aerobic and anaerobic conditions.Materials & Methods: Phenol-chloroform method was performed for extracting DNA from the Nayband Gulf water sample. Extracted DNA sequencing was performed by new generation sequencing technique. Then 16S rRNA gene-based amplicon sequencing was analyzed. Functional genes involved in the degradation of aromatic hydrocarbons under aerobic and anaerobic conditions were predicted from 16S rRNA gene sequences.Results: Our findings indicate that aromatic hydrocarbons contamination in Nayband Gulf water resulted in the enrichment of Oceanospirillales (24.67%), Cellvibrionales (28.95%), SAR11 clade (20.97%), Rhodobacterales (6.17%), Rhodospirillales (7.12%) and Flavobacteriales (5.50%). Alphaproteobacteria (26.18%) and Gammaproteobacteria (42.23%) had the highest percentage. According to Phylogenetic Investigation of Communities by Reconstruction of Unobserved States, the genes involved in degradation of naphthalene under anaerobic conditions were most abundant in the sample.Conclusion: The results of this study showed that long-term exposure to oil pollution and oil spills affects the microbial population. The microbial population of Nayband Gulf region, due to its proximity to the South Pars oil & gas region and the entry of oil pollutants into the water, has caused the domination of petroleum hydrocarbons degrading bacteria.

'Eco-phenomenology' is the point where philosophy and ecology meet. This almost new favored trend in the academia’s perspective deals with the environmental issues from a phenomenological viewpoint. Dismantling Cartesian dualism and proposing the philosophy of 'chiasm,' Merleau-Ponty has contributed substantially to environmental ethics and has proved himself an inseparable part of eco-phenomenology.The present article focuses on one of Merleau-Ponty’s underlying theoretical premises, ‘chiasm’ to provide Snyder’s holistic and non-hierarchical worldview as the basis of his eco-poems and environmental activities. The present research paper, as a qualitative, descriptive, and library-based one, conducts both a textual and contextual analysis to bring to light a new discourse in Schneider's poetry with the focus on the mutual participation between human flesh and the ‘flesh of the world’ at moments of perception.

In this evolution, we see the presence of three different regimes of human rights, including civil rights, social political rights, and collective rights; The justice-oriented view of human rights has been the most important goal of this process in the past 60 years. The effects of this concept on the relations between North and South countries is one of the topics that has been neglected in previous researches.In the present article, the basic question is "what role has human rights played in the convergence of these two areas, considering the growing gap in North-South relations". In response to this question, it can be hypothesized that "despite different perceptions and the priority of the specific interests of each country (both in the North and the South), paying attention to the universality of human rights and the third generation can reduce this gap." This article tries to examine the three concepts of human rights and the close relationship between human rights and development to show that technology transfer can bring new opportunities for southern countries.

In general, it can be said that quality of work life is important to all generations, but different generations may place more importance on certain aspects of quality of work life. However, the lack of literary evidence on this topic has led to this research. This research has been conducted with the aim of identifying the dimensions of the quality of work life based on generational differences using the method of meta-synthesis qualitative analysis. In this research, 137 articles were examined according to the seven stages of metacomposition, and finally 34 articles were approved. The results of the meta-synthesis analysis showed that the individual dimension includes components such as individual professional development, career prospects and professional skills. The family dimension includes family support, work-family balance, and family affiliation. The organizational dimension includes job participation, managers' support, organizational culture, organizational commitment, and perceived organizational justice. The social dimension includes components such as social status, interpersonal interactions and communication in the social environment. In addition, job dimension includes job satisfaction, salary and benefits, job identity, job security and work autonomy. A total of 19 components were extracted, the most frequent of which were related to the components of organizational commitment and communication with the social environment. Also, the reliability of the analysis was evaluated using the Kappa coefficient, which was equal to 0.78. Manuscript profile -

Therefore, engi MoreThe mismatch between production and consumption and concern for providing the energy needed in the power grid has always been one of the problems of grid operators. Also, large-scale electricity production has always been a costly and polluting industry. Therefore, engineers and power generation companies have always been looking for a cheap and clean way to generate power so that they can overcome the power imbalance and ensure stability and the allowed level of pollutants in the network. The most common sources used in the power grid to generate power are gas and thermal units, these units enter the circuit faster and, of course, have a higher production cost. When to use thermal units and when to use gas units in the network is a complex issue, which depends on various factors such as peak time, fuel price and gas supply network conditions. None of these things are certain in their true state. Therefore, in this article, the uncertainty of gas sources and the variability of gas prices in the problem of the participation of power plant units in the power system have been modeled and analyzed by GAMS software. Also, the mixed integer non-linear programming solution method has been used to solve the problem. The results show that if there is uncertainty in the gas sources, there is a greater tendency to use other power plants in the network in order to maintain the security and stability of the network.
