An Evaluation of DEVPT effects on Water and Glycol mixture in Gas Dehydration Process
Tri-ethylene (TEG) is used to inhibit the formation of natural gas hydrates in long transportation pipelines that convey gas from remote gas field to processing units. The degradation of glycol leads to its decomposition and reduction of its pH making it more acidic thereby, increasing its tendency to cause corrosion and subsequent blockage of production and transportation facilities. The possible effect of water on tri-ethylene glycol was ascertained in terms of changes in viscosity, pH, density and efflux time as table 1to4.Thus, the resulting effect of water on glycols (TEG) is high at room temperature and low at frozen temperature as was observed in terms of pH, viscosity and efflux time of the mixture.

Analysis of fluoride in the water of bore-wells of Azamgarh city, U.P
The presence of excessive amount of fluoride in bore wells and drinking water causes dental fluorosis, mottling of teeth etc. Ground water contains fluoride ions dissolved from geological formations. The presence of low concentrations or absence of fluoride in water results in a high incidence of dental caries in children’s teeth. Therefore the concentration of fluoride should be within permissible limit as prescribed by various organizations such as ICMR, WHO, BIS etc. Hence, it becomes very important to analyze the fluoride in the water of bore-wells for used drinking purpose. In the present study, fluoride content has assessed by standard analytical procedures and found in the range 0.008 to 0.615 ppm at different sampling stations of Azamgarh city during Jan 2012 to July2012.

Artificial Neural Network prediction model for material threshing in combine harvester
The combine performance characteristics are related to threshing ability, the minimum amount of loss and fuel consumption. Loss is the most important of these factors. Material threshing is one of processes which have more effect on combine performance. Threshing efficiency has been inversely associated with threshing loss. It is desired to maximize threshing efficiency in threshing mechanism, because it will decrease the load of separation and cleaning mechanisms, which lead to reduction of separation system losses. Stem height, feed rate, threshing clearance ratio and rotational speed of threshing cylinder are operation parameters, which are used in combine design and its performance evaluating. In order to evaluate effect of these parameters on threshing material, experiments were conducted in 4×3×3 factorial pattern with Randomize Blocks design. Material threshing was considered as a dependent variable. These experiments were done on 68’s Sahand combine harvester. Results were analyzed in Neurosolutions 5.0 software. Multilayer Perceptron with four inputs and one output, with a different number of neurons in hidden layer, was used to estimate the amount of material threshing. Results showed that a network with 21 neurons in hidden layer had minimum MSE with R2=0.9. Furthermore, results showed that the amount of material threshing had dependent on stem height, threshing clearance ratio, speed of threshing cylinder and feed rate, respectively. Material threshing was increased with reduction in stem height, feed rate, threshing clearance ratio and speed up of threshing cylinder.

Assessment of Compatibility of critical success factors in new product development and it’s relationship with structural variables in sports manufacturing industries
This study aims at assessing the compatibility of critical success factors in new products developments with structural variables of various sports manufacturing industries in Tehran. Use of a descriptive correlational study, 80 employees and managers of various sports manufacturing companies in Tehran were totally examined, 70 of which delivered the completely filled-in questionnaires. After the approval of validity and reliability of researcher-made questionnaire, data were collected. The results revealed that indices of NPD's critical factors are able to predict structural variables, and critical success factors of new products have positive and significant relationships with structural variables. Finally, it can be said that the research model consists of optimal independent variables (critical factors in new product development) and dependent variables (structural variables), and the set of independent variables are able to explain changes in structural variables. The sport industry was ranked twenty-third with an income equivalent to 50.2 billion dollars in 1987, and after ten years in 1997 it attained the rank of eleventh with an income equivalent to 152 billion dollars. In 1999, it reached 213 billion dollars and the sports.

Assessment of the effect of oil revenues on tax revenues in the economics of Iran: By an experimental study 1989-2008
In the economics of Iran according to the mixture of the incomes of the country, tax can be considered as a kind of assured income. Whereas the important part of tax revenues in Iran depends directly and non-directly on oil revenues, this important matter has severely damaged the tax incomes against fluctuated oil revenues. Being lower 20 percent share of direct incomes to general budget can be assessed as an increased share of oil from the incomes of government. The results of this research present that the extent of the oil revenues of the country has negative effect on tax revenues during research ages. The result is that for revising the structure of country tax system, this matter should be considered in execution process and how to use of expertise people power and revision in this case must be done?in order that tax system be efficient in national economy.

Blurred Image Recognition by Legendre’s Moment Invariants
Processing blurred images is a key problem in many image applications. Existing methods to obtain blur invariants which are invariant with respect to centrally symmetric blur are based on geometric moments or complex moments. In this paper, we propose a new method to construct a set of blur invariants using the orthogonal Legendre moments. Some important properties of Legendre moments for the blurred image are presented and proved. The performance of the proposed descriptors is evaluated with various point-spread functions and different image noises. The comparison of the present approach with previous methods in terms of pattern recognition accuracy is also provided. Theexperimental results show that the proposed descriptors are more robust to noise and have better discriminative power than the methods based on geometric or complex moments.
