Mohammadi, Reza,Mohammadi, Mohtasham,Karimizadeh, Rahmatollah,Amri, Ahmed 한국작물학회 2010 Journal of crop science and biotechnology Vol.13 No.4

This study was performed for pattern analysis of genotype-by-environment (GE) interaction on 20 durum wheat genotypes grown in 15 testing environments during 2004 - 06 in Iran. Combined analysis of variance showed significant genotypes (G), environments (E), and GE interactions (P < 0.01), with environmental main effects being the predominant source of variation, followed by GE interaction. The results showed various patterns of genotype responses to different environment groups and assisted in structuring the durum wheat testing locations with identification of two major-environment groups with high genotype discrimination ability. The locations (Gachsaran and Ilam) corresponding to warm and semi-arid aresa were similar in genotype discrimination and showed no association with the other testing locations (Gonbad, Moghan, and Khoramabad) representing the Mediterranean area, indicating they differ in rankings of genotypes. The top-yielding genotypes, G13, Gl4 and G9, were highly adapted to warm and semi-arid environments, but those corresponding to the Mediterranean area had a high ability to discriminate the genotypes G16, G11, and Saimareh. The stability and adaptability of specific genotypes were assessed by plotting their nominal grain yields at specific environments in an ordination biplot, which aided in the identification of environment groups. Appropriate check genotypes for all environments or for specific environments were also identified. Pattern analysis allowed a sensible and useful summarization of GE interaction data set and helped to facilitate selecting superior genotypes for target-growing sites.

Vahid Ghasemzadeh-mohammadi,Bahman Zamani,Maryam Afsharpour,Abdorreza Mohammadi 한국식품과학회 2017 Food Science and Biotechnology Vol.26 No.5

In this research, optimal conditions for extraction of caffeine and polyphenols were established from Iranian green tea leaves. In the first step, caffeine was extracted with efficacy about 86% versed to 4.5% of EGC ? EGCG. The EGCG ? EGC was extracted from partially decaffeinated green tea leaves through microwave- assisted extraction (MAE) and ultrasound-assisted extraction (USE) with efficiency levels of 95 and 85%, respectively. The best results for the MAE process were obtained with 7.8 min and three number of extraction cycles and for the USE process were as followed: time 57 min, temperature 65 C, and the number of extraction cycles 3. The total phenol content values at the best conditions of MAE and the USE processes were 125 ± 5 and 96 ± 6 mg gallic acid/g DW. The 50% inhibition (IC50) on 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) were 56 and 66 mg/ g of phenol for the MAE and USE processes.

Completeness is an important indicator of data quality in cancer registry programs. This study aimed to estimate the completeness of registered cases in a population based cancer registry program implemented in five provinces of Iran. Capture-recapture methods were used to estimate the number of cases that may have been missed and to estimate rates of completeness for different categories of age, year, and sex. The data used for this study were obtained from three sources: 1) National Pathology Database; 2) National Hospital Discharge Database; and 3) National Death Registry Database. The three sources were linked and duplicates were identified based on first name, last name, father's names, and date of birth, ICD code, and case's residency address using Microsoft Excel. Removing duplicates, the three sources reported a total of 35,643 cases from March 2008 to March 2011. Running many different multivariate models of capture-recapture and controlling for source dependencies revealed an overall under-reporting of 49% in all five registries combined. The estimated completeness differed based on age, sex, and year. The overall completeness was higher for males than females (71.2% for males and 59.9% for females). Younger age had lower rates of completeness compared to older age (38.1% for <40 years, 55.4% for 40-60 years, and 76.7 for >60 years). The results of this study indicated a moderate to severe (depending on the age, sex and year) degree of completeness in the population based cancer registration of Iran.

A NOTE ON MINIMAL PRIME IDEALS

Mohammadi, Rasul,Moussavi, Ahmad,Zahiri, Masoome Korean Mathematical Society 2017 대한수학회보 Vol.54 No.4

Let R be a strongly 2-primal ring and I a proper ideal of R. Then there are only finitely many prime ideals minimal over I if and only if for every prime ideal P minimal over I, the ideal $P/{\sqrt{I}}$ of $R/{\sqrt{I}}$ is finitely generated if and only if the ring $R/{\sqrt{I}}$ satisfies the ACC on right annihilators. This result extends "D. D. Anderson, A note on minimal prime ideals, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 122 (1994), no. 1, 13-14." to large classes of noncommutative rings. It is also shown that, a 2-primal ring R only has finitely many minimal prime ideals if each minimal prime ideal of R is finitely generated. Examples are provided to illustrate our results.

함초추출물을 산란계에 급여하여 난생산성, 난품질 및 혈액의 성상에 미치는 영향을 구명하고자 총 216수의 40주령 하이라인 브라운 산란계를 10주간 공시하였다. 함초추출물의 급여수준은 0(대조구), 1cc/L(T1) 및 5cc/L(T2)로 음수로 급여하였으며, 공시계는 처리구당 3반복, 반복당 24수씩 배치하였다. 사양시험의 결과, 함초추출물은 산란계의 난생산성, 난품질 및 혈액의 특성에 부정적인 영향을 미치지 않았으며, 시험 마지막 주의 산란율과 난각 두께를 개선시켰고, 파란율은 유의하게 감소시켰다. The current experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of adding Salicornia extract to the drinking water on the performance, egg quality, and blood profile of laying hens. A total of 216 Hy-Line Brown laying hens at 40 weeks of age were used in a 10-week experiment. The birds were allotted into three experimental treatments with three replications per treatment and 24 birds per replication. The treatments were CON (basal diet), T1 (1 cc of Salicornia extract per liter of drinking water), and T2 (5 cc of Salicornia extract per liter of drinking water). The collected data were analyzed using the SAS package program. The results indicated that addition of Salicornia extract to the drinking water of laying hens did not cause any negative effects on the performance, egg quality, or blood profile. Compared to the control treatment, the treatments with Salicornia extract remarkably increased egg production (P<0.05) in the last week of the study, improved egg shell thickness and significantly reduced the egg breaking rate (P<0.05). The results of this study showed that the addition of Salicornia extract improved egg shell quality; thus, Salicornia extract can decrease the egg breaking rate and increase production on commercial farms.

AI based energy harvesting security methods: A survey

Mohammadi Masoumeh,Sohn Insoo 한국통신학회 2023 ICT Express Vol.9 No.6

Energy Harvesting (EH) as a power source plays a critical role in the advent of new technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT). But, by providing power within the networks, it may be susceptible to attacks such as eavesdropping, data manipulation, or denial of service, leading to issues like leakage of confidential, sensitive information, and energy scarcity. Therefore, it is important to implement appropriate security measures to protect the data and devices that use energy harvested from ambient sources. In this paper, we present a comprehensive overview of the current and future developments of security for EH systems that used artificial intelligence(AI) approaches. Furthermore, we highlight the application of AI approaches such as machine learning (ML) and federated learning (FL) in the security of EH systems. Then, we discuss the security techniques that are used in the EH literature, including cryptography techniques, physical-layer security schemes, blockchain, and FL. Finally, we outline research challenges and prospects for developing and applying AI algorithms in the security of EH.

Genotype x Environment Interaction for Durum Wheat Grain Yield and Selection for Drought Tolerance in Irrigated and Droughted Environments in Iran

Mohammadi, Reza,Amri, Ahmed 한국작물학회 2011 Journal of crop science and biotechnology Vol.14 No.4

Durum wheat is grown in the Mediterranean region under stressful and variable environmental conditions. In a 4-year-long experiment, 14 genotypes [including 11 durum breeding lines, two durum (Zardak) and bread (Sardari) wheat landraces, and one durum (Saji) newly released variety] were evaluated under rainfed and irrigated conditions in Iran. Several selection indices [i.e. stress tolerance index (STI), drought tolerance efficiency (DTE), and irrigation efficiency (IE)] were used to characterize genotypic differences in response to drought. The GGE biplot methodology was applied to analyze a three-way genotype-environment-trait data. Combined ANOVA showed that the year effect was a predominant source of variation. The genotypes differed significantly (P < 0.01) in grain yield in the both rainfed and irrigated conditions. Graphic analysis of the relationship among the selection indices indicated that they are not correlated in ranking of genotypes. The two wheat landraces and the durum-improved variety with high DTE had minimum yield reduction under drought-stressed environments. According to STI, which combines yield potential and drought tolerance, the "Saji" cultivar followed by some breeding lines (G11, G8, and G4) performed better than the two landraces and were found to be stable and high-yielding genotypes in drought-prone rainfed environments. The breeding lines G8, G6, G4, and G9 were the efficient genotypes responding to irrigation utilization. In conclusion, the identification of the durum genotypes (G12, G11, and G4) with high yield and stability performance under unpredictable environments and high tolerance to drought stress conditions can help breeding programs and eventually contribute to increasing and sustainability of durum production in the unpredictable conditions of Iran.

Failure analysis of laminates by implementation of continuum damage mechanics in layer-wise finite element theory

Mohammadi, B.,Hosseini-Toudeshky, H.,Sadr-Lahidjani, M.H. Techno-Press 2009 Structural Engineering and Mechanics, An Int'l Jou Vol.33 No.6

In this paper a 3-D continuum damage mechanics formulation for composite laminates and its implementation into a finite element model that is based on the layer-wise laminate plate theory are described. In the damage formulation, each composite ply is treated as a homogeneous orthotropic material exhibiting orthotropic damage in the form of distributed microscopic cracks that are normal to the three principal material directions. The progressive damage of different angle ply composite laminates under quasi-static loading that exhibit the free edge effects are investigated. The effects of various numerical modeling parameters on the progressive damage response are investigated. It will be shown that the dominant damage mechanism in the lay-ups of [+30/-30]s and [+45/-45]s is matrix cracking. However, the lay-up of [+15/-15] may be delaminated in the vicinity of the edges and at $+{\theta}/-{\theta}$ layers interfaces.
