An unusual new genus of Scenopinidae, Iranotrichia gen.n., comprising two newly discovered species (I.insolita sp.n.and I.nigra sp.n.), Shampoo is described from Iran.Iranotrichia gen.n.are scenopinine window flies with a habitus reminiscent of certain bee fly genera (Bombyliidae), based on colouration and elongate mouthparts and antennae.The phylo
The Daqingshan area is located in the Khondalite belt in the northern margin of the North China Craton.It has the best-preserved Mesozoic basin and is an ideal area for research on Jurassic strata.Sandstones mainly contain quartz and feldspar, with significantly less debris content.In addition, petrography and geochemical classifications have revea
Dysfunctional voiding (DV) is an abnormal urethral sphincter activity during voiding in neurologically normal individuals.Urethral sphincter botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) injection has been used to treat DV, but the results have not been completely satisfactory.This study investigated the neurological characteristics of women with DV using the lower u
The present study introduces the concept of ecological cost of heating modeled on the economic cost of heating.A method of determining these costs is also proposed.This method allows for an analytical description of the ecological as well as economic net present value of a thermal insulation investment.Consequently, it is possible to determine the
A semi-submersible structure has been widely used for offshore drilling and production of oil and gas.The small water plane area Skateboards makes the structure very sensitive to weight increase in terms of payload and stability.Therefore, it is necessary to lighten the substructure from the early design stage.This study aims at an optimization of
