In this study the energy consumption of orange orchards was surveyed and various Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) developed to estimate the farmer’s production in the Sari region as a case study. The data were collected using a face-to-face questionnaire method from 86 farmers in the Sari region. The results indicated that the total amount of energy input and output were 54284.8 and 59223.4 MJ ha-1, respectively. Among all inputs involved, diesel fuel had the highest energy values per hectare. Also, energy efficiency, energy productivity and net energy were calculated as 1.09, 0.57 kg MJ-1 and 4938.5 MJ ha-1, respectively. Performance of developed ANN models were evaluated using the coefficient of determination (R2), mean absolute error (MAE) and root mean squared error (RMSE). The resulting tests showed that best performance was achieved by a momentum training algorithm resulting in R2=0.84, and MAE= 0.32 and RMSE=0.38 with 8-4-1 topology. Additionally, sensitivity analysis revealed that fertilizer and electricity energy had the highest and the lowest sensitivity on output, respectively.

There are lots of nonlinear formulas in mathematics and physics and there are, many types of solitons to talk over. This revision is dedicated to the straight technical particulars of how to produce soliton solution of Maxwell's equations and intensive confirmation is placed on mathematical report analysis. The quasi-stationary state waveguides has been founded and with a small deviation from equilibrium, we measured and advanced a solution for a formula. Classical parting of parameters is presented with a special B.C. is introduced on a slab waveguide to obtain a general form of solution of the coordinates x, y z.

Let G be a graph with n vertices. Prime labeling of G is the labeling of the vertices using first n positive integers such that labeling of each pair of adjacent vertices are relatively prime. This work is a generalization of [2] which was analogous to [1] in which prime labeling for complete bipartite graphs were considered. In [2] conditions for the existence of prime labeling of complete tripartite graphs of the form K_(1,m,n) was given where m,n?Z^+. In our work, we have proved that prime labeling of K_(2,m,n) and K_(3,m,n) exists for some values of m and n where m,n?Z^+. Further, few non-existance cases have been discussed.

This paper aims to highlight certain facts that help as well as constrain the production and marketing of coconuts in Karnataka. Based on the observation and analysis of the collected data, the paper concludes that both the production and marketing practices of coconut in Karnataka need to be made more professional if it has to continue to benefit the farmers and to assert its role in the Indian scenario.

Infertility has a strong and negative impact in several areas of the individual’s life. The infertile women may lose prestige in society, may develop a low self-esteem, and may lose hope for the future. This study compared psychosocial responses in 90 infertile women and normal women. An ex post facto design was used. The subjects of the present study were infertile women in an infertility treatment center in ,ahwaz, Iran. Women selected by randomly sampling. The women completed the Psychosocial responses. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance. Differences were found between the groups on the Psychosocial responses (self-image/self-esteem, guilt/blame, sexuality problems, and interpersonal relationship).

Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) play a major role in controlling the load flow in the power system. In this paper, reactive power control is performed with STATCOM based on the fuzzy controller. The purpose of using the fuzzy controller is to improve the STATCOM performance for continuous and fast reactive power control. The performance of the STATCOM based fuzzy controller in a 14-bus test system with simulation is evaluated by MATLAB/SIMULINK software. Also, a control component to limit STATCOM's reactive power at level of nominal power is used to prevent damage. The simulation results will show the optimal performance of the fuzzy controller and the limiter.

Industrial cluster is an industrial organization mode formed from many enterprises and inter-related institutions with a certain geographic concentration. It is an effective way for the development of regional economy, and featured with agglomeration, symbiosis, flexibility, embeddedness, etc. Industrial eco-system is a recycling-oriented industrial system, in which the waste of one process can be utilized as the resource of a closed loop system, or becomes inputs for a new process, and ultimately all the materials, energy and information are sustainable used. Industrial ecosystem is characterized by the market-driven initiative, material flow circularity, the cooperation of industrial clusters and dynamic sustainability. Eco-industrial cluster can be categorized as the main-sub-industry derivative mode, multi-industry symbiosis mode, or artery- vein-industry circular mode

In any Commitment, what is desired, the implementation is the same commitment, and the purpose of the conclusion of the Commitments of the parties, is to get the change. But also the implementation of commitment, in all cases, not useful, and sometimes resort to other ways the interests of the parties to the contract, to provide a more favorable way, is more appropriate. What the parties, foremost importance, benefits from its implementation, not coercion committed to doing the same commitment, after a long time. On the other hand, extraordinary indifference, the same commitment to performance, and extreme preference for other forms of compensation, the manner of compensation is also justified not acceptable, and does not pay attention to the shared objectives contract. Ambiguous nature of some of the topics in the science of law, can determine the effects of their sentences, to be involved, so defining and analyzing the concepts and determine the legal nature of these topics, much the work of a lawyer, is formed. This study aimed to examine, evaluate and analyze the rules governing the obligation to work Payment, by submitting's action. Although the Civil Code, Article 214, "action" and "yours" and, Handsome each contract, and consequently the "surrender of property" and "take action", the difference is established, but according to the principles of civil law, and with regard to the property of "action", in our law, it seems, do the subject of the contract, the property was an act of submission, and subject to the provisions of it. Accordingly, it can be submitted using the general rules of property, to the extent shortcomings in civil law and civil law, and the legal literature of Iran, on the rules governing the obligation to take action, be overcome.

This study aimed to determine the level of transformational leadership practices by school principals in the national secondary schools in the district of Kinta Utara, Perak, Malaysia. The four dimensions of transformational leadership studied were individual consideration, intellectual stimulation, inspirational motivation and idealized influence. The study also looks at the level of teachers’ job satisfaction as well as the relationship with the practice of transformational leadership by the national secondary school principals’. The respondents consisted of 225 teachers employed in 15 national secondary schools in the district of Kinta Utara, Perak. The data obtained was analyzed using SPSS version 20.0. Descriptive analysis and Pearson Correlation Coefficient were used to analyze the strength of the relationship. The results showed that the practice of transformational leadership by school principals’ in the district of Kinta Utara, Perak was high and the job satisfaction of secondary school teachers’ was satisfactory with a significant relationship between the level of transformational leadership and job satisfaction. The implication of this study is that the school principals should always ensure that their leadership performance is always kept high to have a significant relationship with the job satisfaction of secondary school teachers’.

Over the past one decade, the Indian Aviation sector has moved from being a closed, poorly managed and excessively regulated industry to a more open, liberalized and investor friendly sector. The growth in this sector has been threatened inter alia by a lot of challenges such as high fares, high operational costs, global slowdown and security and law and order issues. According to the estimates of Centre for Asia Pacific Aviation (CAPA) by 2020, Indian Airports in all probability be able to serve over 100 million passengers every year. The figures revealed by the Ministry of Civil Aviation also indicate that the number of International passengers are expected to increase to 50 million. In such a scenario, it is important to maintain a fool proof security paraphernalia which is capable of adequately dealing with the rapidly changing techniques adopted by the terrorists groups. The security mechanism in the aviation sector needs a reconditioning to bring it in tune with the constantly evolving terror issues. The Aircrafts Act has become obsolete, it does not contain any special provisions with regard to the security of the Aircrafts, it is often felt that a comprehensive legislation pertaining to Civil Aviation Security is required for setting up a legal framework to inter alia provide for deterrent punishment for such offences, a specially trained task force for dealing with such contingencies and a summary disposal of such cases. The paper makes a humble attempt to suggest the procedural and legislative changes in the light of the civil aviation security laws of the other nations. A critical analysis of the current law has been done to show the various anomalies present therein. It is the objective of this paper to suggest a reconciliation between the interests of the passengers and the security of the state.
