        Exposure to heat and heat stress that most people encounter during daily activities or activities in the workplace will have an impact on human physical activity. The aim of this study was to discuss the effects of heat stress in the 22 districts on citizenships of Tehran. For this purpose, the questionnaire data has been used. This research was descriptive and fieldwork was done and a questionnaire was used for data collection. This questionnaire was performed according to a sample size of 385 cases and through using Cochran's formula. For analysis the data of questionnaire was used SPSS and MATLAB software. The findings of descriptive showed that 60% of the respondents were female and 40% men. Since weight has almost direct connection to heat stress, the evaluation of the weight class diversity can be almost suitable for the analysis of the factors and mental responses of heat stress on citizenships of Tehran. Based on this issue, 32.7% have a weight between 55 and 65 and 29.09% have weight more than 75 kg. In order to analysis, the role of heat stress on citizenships of Tehran factor analysis and cluster analysis have been used. The results indicated that based on factor analysis, heat stress has the most effects on the calm of soul and spirit, fatigue and heatstroke and decreased activity and increased transpiration of the body, cramps, pulmonary and heart disease. According to cluster analysis, cardio pulmonary disease and cramps, the calm of soul and spirit and fatigue, dizziness, heatstroke and decreased activity and increased transpiration have been affected respectively. The study showed that the effects of heat stress on gender, type of occupation, marriage, celibacy, male and female and there is a significant relationship between heat stress and gender, occupation and age while marital, celibacy and weight don't have influence on heat stress.

        In this study, structural elements, such as faults and fractures and their formation mechanisms and relationships with tectonic regime of Chah Yusuf Mountain in East of Gonabad city have been recognized and discussed. Their relation with regional fractures, based on data’s from satellite image process and field data, is also shown. Major faults in this area were identified by using fault plain features such as striations, stretching vein and cumulative steps of minerals that helped us to determine fault mechanisms. In general, faults were oriented in three main directions: 1) Reversed faulting along N90-120˚, 2) Right lateral strike –slip faults along N140-160˚ and 3) Normal faults along N0-15˚. Based on the obtained data and using the inversion method, the orientation of the principal stress axes (σ1، σ2 and σ3) and the ratio of the principal stress differences R in the studied area were analyzed. The results showed two different tectonic regimes in the formation of regional structures: 1) Compressive tectonic regime, major stress along NNE-SSW, which generated structures of folds and reversed faults. 2) Shear tectonic regime, compressive stress along NE_SW and tensile stress line NW-SE, which generated structures such as strike-slip faults, normal faults, vein and tensile fracture. So, the major stress direction in this region is NNE-SSW, which shows its relation to the Late Cenozoic Arabia –Eurasia oblique continental collision. Manuscript profile

        This study uses multiple inversion method to analyze slip data on shear planes and faults containing slickenlines in different rock units, and evaluates paleostress field in Mansour-Abad area. It was gathered the required kinematic data in 18 stations according to the stratigraphic age of the rock units. It was used the most important shear sense indicators, including mineral steps, Riedel shears and tension fractures. According to the multiple inversion method, which calculates stress tensor from the inhomogeneous fault data (data without any knowledge of stress field orientation or fault classification), four parameters of stress ellipsoid shape and axes were analyzed. It was found 3 different phases of compression, extension-shear and shear- compression using the phase separation in this method. The maximum principal stress orientation in different locations changes from N24˚ to N162˚ between Cretaceous and Neogene, while the minimum principal stress orientation changes from N79˚ to N116˚. The NW-SE strike of the reverse faults indicates that these faults developed during the activity of compressional phase. During the extensional-shear phase of the activity, local sedimentation occurred in the area. Late shear deformation of area, and change in stress field orientation, resulted in a block rotation between the fractures. Further increase in the rotation caused the fractures to increase in size, and provide space for intrusion of the magma. Manuscript profile

        Knowledge of the local stress field in a region is important in the structural and affecting factors on structural kinematics studies. Therefore, in this paper after describing the basic theoretical principles of stress inversion method from slickensides, it was used field measured heterogeneous fault –slips as raw data to determine the average state of the principal stress axes in order to analyze the regional geodynamic situation of this area. The results of the reduced stress tensor from fault-slip measured data, show 21/156، 64/012 and 14/251 states for σ1، σ2 and σ3 axes respectively. The results of analysis of these data show substantial agreement between the determined principal stress axes and recent tectonic research in this region. Manuscript profile

        Golestan province is located in one of the seismically active zones of Iran. The seismicity maps of Golestan province show that density of earthquakes in the west is more than the east. In this research, the parameters including b-value, recurrence time and seismic moment were studied to investigate the seismicity of the west of Golestan province. The focal mechanism of earthuqakes and field data were used to determine the stress orientations in the study area. The estimated b-value is obtained as 1.24±0.2 which is comparable with the Alborz. Since the northern and southern parts of the study area have different geomorphological and structural characteristics, some of these parameters were calculated for two subdivisions; Dasht-e-Gorgan in the north and foothill in the south. Results of this study show that the earthquakes in the Dasht-e-Gorgan compared to the foothill are smaller with shorter recurrence times. For the foothills, the calculated P-axes using the stress tensor inversion method is found to be subhorizontal with trend N-NNE. For this region, at least two trends, N and NW, is calculated using field data. This result show the change of stress directions during the structural evolution of this area. The calculated p-axes trend for the Dasht-e-Gorgan is NE. In both studied areas, the focal mechanisms of greater earthquakes are consistent with the E-W to NE-SW trend of main faults especially the Khazar fault. But, the smaller events in the Gorgan Plain show a different trend and mechanism. Comparison of these two subdivisions shows that the northern Alborz foothill is more dangerous than the plain.

        The South Central Iran Block has experienced polyphase intensive deformation in the Cenozoic time. Large-scale superposed folds in South Rafsanjan document the Cenozoic tectonic events within the South Central Iran Block. In this study, a case study of this deformation inferred from regional-scale Rafsanjan superposed folds in the south of Central Iran is presented to reconstruct the deformation sequence and tectonic regime during crustal shortening. These data indicate that the superposed folds, dominated by a two-stage tectonic transpression regime which experienced two phases of superposed folding, leading to the orthogonal superposition of WNW–ESE-trending folds onto NE–SW trending folds. Structural analyses and fault kinematic analyses in the Rafsanjan Structural Belt indicate a two-stage syn-folding paleo-stress field during the Cenozoic. The early phase of tectonism is characterized by late Miocene NW-SE transpression, which led to the development of NE-trending fold structures and causing the occurrence of an orogeny perpendicular shortening. This tectonic event was most likely associated with progressive anticlockwise rotation of the Central Iran Block. Subsequent tectonic event from Late Miocene until Quaternary contributed to a phase of contraction that overprinted the early NNE–SSW shortening in the interior parts of the studied area and generated a large-scale NE-convex fold belt and the typical large-scale superposed folds within the South of Central Iran Block. In terms of geodynamics, the later tectonism is likely to have been related to the NE-directed convergence between the Arabian and the Eurasian Plates. Manuscript profile

        In this research, present-day tectonic stress field affecting North Tabriz Fault and surrounding areas was reconstructed by using 37 compiled earthquakes focal mechanism from various sources. Triangle diagrams were used to determine the sense of the earthquakes focal mechanism. The sense of these data varies from strike-slip to thrust regime. Stress separation process was applied on data set for separation of the various tectonics regimes from a poly-phase system to obtain reduced stress tensors. This was done because most of the data participated in them and reconstructed stress fields completely cover the stresses affecting the region. The results of inversion analysis and internal separation of the data set show three stress regimes acting in this region. Considerably, all three stress regimes have a horizontal pressure stress with NW-SE to NNW-SSE trend. The direction of maximum pressure in each first, second and third regimes is 09/329, 28/310 and 03/138, respectively.

        Estimation of in-situ stress tensor in sedimentary basins using information obtained from exploration and development oil and gas wells during the drilling and logging process may be used for estimation of in-situ stress tensor in sedimentary basins. The in-situ stress magnitude and orientation and the resulting stress regime around the studied wells have been several application in secondary recovery programs from hydrocarbon reservoirs as well as wellbore stability analysis. In this paper, the magnitude of in-situ stress is estimated by using abovementioned data in some oil wells located in the south west of Iran. Increasing the oil production by hydraulic fracturing design and sand control in the multi-layer reservoirs such as the Marun giant oil field with loose sand horizons and also improving drilling performance in the Gachsaran formation¬ requires knowledge about the prevailing stress conditions. This research, tries to analyze the stress regime of the Asmari and Gachsaran Formations around the selected wells in the Marun and Lali fields using constructed Mechanical Earth Models (MEM) and their differences are discussed. The calculated stress magnitudes in studied wells indicate a significant drop in magnitude of horizontal stresses from the Gachsaran to Asmari reservoirs in the Marun oil field. The magnitudes of the three principal stresses resulted that SHmax is the maximum principal stress and the Shmin is the minimum principal stress, thus a strike-slip stress regime (SHmax>Sv>Shmin) dominates in the Gachsaran sequence and the Asmari formation of the Lali oil field. however, in the Gachsaran formation of Marun giant oil field, stress regime is reverse-strike slip but normal stress regime is dominated in it's Asmari reservoir. The In-situ stress condition indicates that the structural condition and the depth difference of these structures plays an important role in the tectonic stress regime changes. Manuscript profile

        Wellbore instability is one of the main problems during drilling of oil and gas wells. Analyzing and wellbore instability prediction is important. In-situ stress measurement and stress regime are important for stability studies. This study was carried out in one of the oilfields in the south Caspian basin in Iran. The compressional stress regime in the studied field was determined based on regional stress indicators and larg scale tectonic observations. . This study presented the effect of borehole inclination and azimuth on borehole stability under reverse fault regimes. The magnitude of stresses was determined from measured sonic velocities, density log and predicted pore pressure utilizing the Eaton method. In this study, the modified Lade model have been utilized to perform stability calculation for different inclinations and azimuths. In this study, to perform stability calculation with the use of STABview software is presented. It is shown that drilling wells parallel to maximum in-situ horizontal stress (NE-SW) causes less stability problems. The results of this study could help in the mitigation and/ or prevention of wellbore stability issues in this oilfield. Manuscript profile

        The studied zone is in the Northern part of Zagros Suture Zone (Kermanshah). The presence of deep sea sediments, oceanic crust remnants, platform carbonates, igneous and metamorphosed rocks of active margin and carbonate sequence of passive margin that are assembled in the studied area show a compressional tectonic regime from the late Cretaceous up to the present. As a result of convergent regime, a very complicated structural zone is developed. The main purpose of this study is stress characteristic analysis in Zagros Suture Zone (Kermanshah).To recognize and study the arrangement of stress axes a great amount of data were gathered from the folds axial surface and the faults which are appeared within the rocks specially the radiolaritic rocks. The data includes characteristics of fault surface geometry, fault slip and lineation slip. The stress recording patterns for data in this study is Multiple Inverse Method and comparison with stress position by using folds axial surface. By studying folds it was obtained the situation of main stress σ1, σ2 and σ3 respectively as 029, 127, 234 and by using the method Multiple Inverse Method, the situation of main stress is obtained as 059, 304, 194. Based on the investigations in the study area and measurements on Cretaceous rocks, the results show that the main stress direction since Cretaceous up to the present is northeastern with minor changes. The estimations of stress direction were the same in both folds and faults. As a result, the shortening direction has been constant, so the shortening faults all show one direction of stress.

        Emotional distress detection has become a hot topic of research in recent years due to concerns related to mental health and complex nature distress identification. One of the challenging tasks is to use non-invasive technology to understand and detect emotional distress in humans. Personalized affective cues provide a non-invasive approach considering visual, vocal, and verbal cues to recognize the affective state. In this paper, we are proposing a multimodal hierarchical weighted framework to recognize emotional distress. We are utilizing negative emotions to detect the unapparent behavior of the person. To capture facial cues, we have employed hybrid models consisting of a transfer learned residual network and CNN models. Extracted facial cue features are processed and fused at decision using a weighted approach. For audio cues, we employed two different models exploiting the LSTM and CNN capabilities fusing the results at the decision level. For textual cues, we used a BERT transformer to learn extracted features. We have proposed a novel decision level adaptive hierarchical weighted algorithm to fuse the results of the different modalities. The proposed algorithm has been used to detect the emotional distress of a person. Hence, we have proposed a novel algorithm for the detection of emotional distress based on visual, verbal, and vocal cues. Experiments on multiple datasets like FER2013, JAFFE, CK+, RAVDESS, TESS, ISEAR, Emotion Stimulus dataset, and Daily-Dialog dataset demonstrates the effectiveness and usability of the proposed architecture. Experiments on the enterface'05 dataset for distress detection has demonstrated significant results. Manuscript profile

        Background: The purpose of the present study is to investigate the effect of Chronic L-Carnitine Supplementation on Exercise Performance, Blood Lactate, and Exercise-Induced Oxidative Stress in Resistance-Trained Males Materials and Methods: We examined 35 resistance-trained (1y) male participants (25±2y, 79.8±8.9 kg, 16.1±5.53% body fat) for 9-wk of L-carnitine supplementation in conjunction with resistance training on exercise performance, blood lactate, and exercise-induced oxidative stress. Randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind treatment of a (1) no intervention, no supplement Control (CON, n=12), (2) maltodextrose Placebo (PLA, 2 g/d, n=11) or (3) L-carnitine (LCR, 2 g/d, n=12). Exercise performance, post-exercise blood lactate (BL) and oxidative stress markers were analyzed at weeks 3, 6, and 9. The PLA and LCR groups followed a specific resistance training program (4 d/w, upper body/lower body split) for a 9-wk. Data were analyzed by GLM and presented as mean (SD) or change (95% CI). Primary outcomes were total lifting volume for the bench (BP) and leg press (LP). Results: The results a significant increase in BP lifting volume at wk-6 (139 kg, 95% CI 49.1, 230) and wk-9 (238 kg, 95% CI 132, 343) for LCR. Similar results were observed for LP. We also observed a significant increase in Wingate mean power (63.4 W, 95% CI 30.5, 96.3) and peak power (239 W/kg, 95% CI 104, 374) at wk-9 for LCR as well as a significant reduction in post-exercise BL levels and oxidative stress responses. No differences were observed in body composition. Conclusion: These findings indicate that LCR supplementation improves exercise performance and attenuates the blood lactate and oxidative stress response to resistance training. Manuscript profile

        The purpose of this study was to investigate mediating role of coping with stress styles in the relationship between creative thinking and psychological well-being. Population included 410 students Tehran university students who were selected as sample by using multi-stage cluster sampling method. Research method was descriptive and co-relational. The data collection tools were Ryff Psychological Well-Being Questionnaire (1989), Andler and Parker Coping with Stress Styles Questionnaire (1990) and Torrance Creative Thinking Questionnaire(1979). The results showed that creative thinking had a direct and positive impact on psychological well-being. Creative thinking with the help of mediating role of Problem-oriented and emotional-oriented methods had indirect effect on psychological well-being. Problem-oriented method had positive impact and emotional-oriented method had negative impact on psychological well-being. There were not any significant relationships between avoidance-oriented method with creative thinking and psychological well-being variables. Therefore as a conclusion coping with stress methods had a mediating role in regards to creative thinking and psychological well-being. Manuscript profile

        The aim of the current research is to determine the difference between resilience and coping strategies among volunteers and soldiers who participated in the war against ISIS. The research method was descriptive and causal-comparative. The population of interest in this study was all Kurdish volunteers and soldiers in all three provinces of Halabja, Sulaimaniyah and Erbil of Iraqi Kurdistan who participated in the war against ISIS. The sample of this study was selected through available sampling. Then, data were collected using Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale ( CD-RISC) and Endler and Parker’s Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations and analyzed by multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA). The results of this study showed that there was no difference in resilience between volunteers and soldiers, but there was a significant difference in coping with stress scale. In terms of problem-oriented style and avoidance-oriented style, the difference was significant. Therefore, it turns out that there is no difference in emotion-focused coping. The main findings of this study confirm that special training courses are recommended to enhance resilience and help volunteers and soldiers to exprince reduce warfare stress. Manuscript profile

        In some applications that we need a high voltage gain such as the photovoltaic cell and fuel cell, high step up dc-dc converters must be used, but conventional boost converter cannot provide the high voltage gain. For this reason, in this paper, a single switch transformerless high step-up buck boost dc-dc converter with reduced voltage stress on the semiconductors is proposed. The proposed converter has higher voltage gain in step-up mode in comparison with conventional boost and buck-boost converters. Reduced voltage stress on the active switch allows to choose lower voltage rating MOSFETs to reduce both switching and conduction losses. Low voltage stress on the diodes allows the use of Schottky rectifiers for alleviating the reverse-recovery current. The proposed converter can be operated in the continuous conduction mode (CCM) and the discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). In this paper, different operation modes of the proposed converter, calculation of the voltage gain, the currents that flow through the components, efficiency and capacitors voltage ripple are presented. To verify the operation of the proposed converter, simulation results via PSCAD software and experimental results are provided. Manuscript profile

        The purpose of this study was to provide a model of stress management training and its relationship with employees' self-efficacy. In terms of applied purpose, this research was a combination of exploratory data (qualitative and quantitative) and in terms of research implementation, it was a grounded theory approach (qualitative stage) and in terms of quantity, it was a cross-sectional survey. The study population in the qualitative section includes Professors and academic experts (psychology and social medical management specialists), according to the entry and exit criteria in the qualitative section and in the quantitative section including experts and managers who had taken stress management training. Sample size and sampling method in qualitative part based on the principle of theoretical saturation of 12 people using purposive sampling method and in quantitative part according to Cochran's formula 220 employees of Zanjan, Qazvin and Mazandaran Universities of Medical Sciences and the Ministry of Health and Medical Education in 2020 using a multi-stage sampling method. To collect data, a semi-structured interview method and a researcher-made questionnaire were used and in a quantitative section of the General Schwarvar and Jerosalm General Self-efficacy questionnaire (1992).To evaluate the validity and reliability of qualitative section data, credibility, conformability and transferability criteria were used. content validity and the opinion of several experts were used to confirm the validity of the tool in the quantitative part. The reliability of the questionnaires was calculated according to Cronbach's alpha formula. Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the researcher-made education questionnaire was 0.84 and Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.81 self-efficacy questionnaire, indicating that research tools have desirable reliability. In the qualitative part, the content analysis of the interviews was used to analyze the data, using the coding method (open, axial and selective coding), confirmatory factor analysis, heuristic factor analysis, structural equations and descriptive statistics were used. Then regression analysis was used to measure the relationship between coping methods with self – efficacy. The results showed that to deal with stressful situations, three basic strategies of problem-focused coping strategy, emotion-focused coping strategy and avoidance-focused coping strategy can be used for the stress management training model. In general, the components presented to deal with stressful situations have the necessary and appropriate validity, and all three main components (problem-focused coping strategy, emotion-focused coping strategy and avoidance-focused coping strategy) were in a good position to explain and fit.In this research, the questionnaire of coping with stressful conditions was valid and approved. Strategies for coping with stressful situations had a different effect on people's self-efficacy, so that problem-oriented coping strategy had a significant positive relationship with self-efficacy and the effect of problem-oriented coping strategy was on incremental self-efficacy (P <0.05). In other words, the more emphasis is placed on problem-oriented coping strategy, the more self-efficacy of individuals increases, and in contrast to emotion-focused coping strategy and avoidant-centered coping strategy has a negative and decreasing relationship with self-efficacy (P <0.05), As the emotion-focused coping strategy and avoidance- focused coping strategy highlighted ,the self - efficacy of individuals also decreased Manuscript profile

        Identifying hazards from human error is critical for industrial safety since dangerous and reckless industrial worker actions, as well as a lack of measures, are directly accountable for human-caused problems. Lack of sleep, poor nutrition, physical deformities, and weariness are some of the key factors that contribute to these risky and reckless behaviors that might put a person in a perilous scenario. This scenario causes discomfort, worry, despair, cardiovascular disease, a rapid heart rate, and a slew of other undesirable outcomes. As a result, it would be advantageous to recognize people's mental states in the future in order to provide better care for them. Researchers have been studying electroencephalogram (EEG) signals to determine a person's stress level at work in recent years. A full feature analysis from domains is necessary to develop a successful machine learning model using electroencephalogram (EEG) inputs. By analyzing EEG data, a time-frequency based hybrid bag of features is designed in this research to determine human stress dependent on their sex. This collection of characteristics includes features from two types of assessments: time-domain statistical analysis and frequency-domain wavelet-based feature assessment. The suggested two layered autoencoder based neural networks (AENN) are then used to identify the stress level using a hybrid bag of features. The experiment uses the DEAP dataset, which is freely available. The proposed method has a male accuracy of 77.09% and a female accuracy of 80.93%. Manuscript profile

        Since the corona epidemic, various studies have examined the psychological and physical effects of this disease and have considered several factors involved in the occurrence, increase and decrease of psychological distress resulting from this epidemic. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between coping schemes with stress, virtues in action and resilience with psychological distress during the corona epidemic. 200 students (137 women and 63 men) between the ages of 20-40 were randomly selected and responded online to questionnaires of the Coping Schemas with Stress (CSI-R), Virtues in Action (VIA), Connor and Davidson's Resilience (CD-RISC) and Kessler's psychological distress (K-10). Findings showed that the mediating role of resilience in the relationship between coping schemes with stress and psychological distress is significant. Relationships between coping schemas with stress with virtues in action were also significant. The relationship between virtues in action with psychological distress was not significant. The results of the study indicate that in periods of stress and crisis, such as the Corona epidemic, programs based on promoting resilience is preferred in reducing the level of psychological distress than Programs to change coping schemas with stress and programs to promote positive virtues.

        Abstract Oil reservoirs are one of the important sources of energy due to which is caused by specific rock mechanical properties, the ability to maintain hydrocarbon fluids. One of the major problems that are occurred during drilling a well is instability of the wellbore. In order to prevent this difficulty its need to predict stability of the rocks by using geomechanical properties and in-situ stresses. A lack of accurate wellbore stability analysis brings many problems such as borehole washout, breakout, collapse, stuck pipes and drill bits. In the present research work the stability of an oil well located in Asmari reservoir of Ahwaz oil field was stimulated by using numerical software FLAC3D and information obtained from well log curves were evaluated and analyzed in two parts and the results were presented. Mud pressure and mud weight in outset of wellbore plastic flow and also outset of shear failure in wellbore were obtained for 7.5 meter of formation which mainly consists of limestone, marl. Well stability analysis was performed in vertical direction, minimum horizontal stress and maximum horizontal stress. Due to plastic movement and shear failure in wellbore, in first stage the mud pressure occurred is 33 and 26.4 Mpa and the second stage it reaches to 45 and 30 Mpa, respectively.It indicates that tensile failure is in direction of maximum horizontal stress and shear failure in direction of minimum horizontal stress. Subsequently, the result shows that the analysis due to the low mechanical properties of the sandstone layer indicates the maximum amount of displacement and loss. The safe mud window is small in this layer. Manuscript profile

        Abstract Determination of In-situ stress domain in oilfields is so important for drilling, well completion and petroleum geomechanics. Simply, determination of magnitude and direction of In-situ stress around wellbore is the first step of geomechanical studies and wellbore stability particularly. Preliminarily, because of importance of casing collapse problem in the Marun oilfield, the magnitude of in-situ stress is determined. The magnitude of vertical stress (Sv) was in range of 85 to 90 MPa. The minimum horizontal stress (Shmin) determined by some analytical methods. For estimating of maximum horizontal stress (SHmax) domain we used Anderson’s faulting theory and stress polygon. So the magnitude of SHmax was so close to Sv and the faulting regime shows normal/strike slip. Within Gachsaran Formation in depth of collapses because of salty lithology and high pore pressure, magnitude of In-situ stress is so close and it can be assume hydrostatic stress state.

        Sexual distress is a destructive factor in marital relationships, so if the right interventions are used, this sexual problem can be prevented. The purpose of this study is the effectiveness of the indigenous package of enriching marital relations on sexual distress of working women in Shiraz, 2020-2021. The research method was clinical trial with pre-test and post-test design and 8 and 12 week follow-up with two experimental and control groups. The statistical population of the study consisted of all married women working in several government agencies in Shiraz in 2020. 120 women with sexual dysfunction were selected by purposive sampling method and were divided into experimental and control groups, which resulted in 79 final samples. 40 people were in the experimental group and 39 people were in the control group. All of these women applied to participate in training sessions to enrich couple relationships (4 sessions of 2 hours) which were purposefully selected and randomly divided into two groups. In this study, a sexual distress questionnaire (Dragatis, et al., 2008) was used to collect information. Analysis of statistical data was performed by SPSS22 software at both descriptive and inferential levels. The results showed that there is a significant difference between the scores of sexual distress in the research stages and the native package of enrichment of marital relationships has improved the quality of sexual intercourse and reduced sexual distress in the experimental group compared to the control group (p> 0. 001). Therefore, the indigenous package of enriching marital relations has played a significant role in promoting women's sexual relations. Manuscript profile

        The global prevalence and unprecedented COVID-19 disease is a serious threat to public health and increases psychological distress in individuals. It is crucial to study the structural model of COVID-19 psychological factors associated with COVID-19 and the lack of previous research on this issue presented in this study. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of gender modulation in the relationship between the five major factors of personality and psychological distress in hospitalized COVID-19 patients. Improved patients of Covid-19 (N= 705; Age range 25-80 years, women= 63/20%; Mean age = 41/32, SD = 11/05 years). They were selected from Sasan and Baqiyatallah hospitals by available sampling method. The instruments used were the Five Personality-Short Form Questionnaire (BFI-S) and the Psychological Distress Scale (K10). R software (Lavan) package was used to analyze the data. Openness in women increases anxiety, but in men, it reduces anxiety. Moreover, the effect of openness on distress in the two groups of men and women was statistically significant (P = 0.002); Extraversion was also associated with decreased anxiety in men (P = 0.000); therefore, gender is the moderator of these relationships. These results explain the process of psychological distress by considering personality factors and the critical role of gender as a moderator and the need to pay attention to intervention approaches to reduce the effects of psychological distress in the research literature.

        This study aimed to investigate the relationship between personality traits and Corona disease anxiety by the mediating effect of perceived stress and self-efficacy among adolescents. Method: In this descriptive correlational study, the statistical population comprised high-school students in Abarkooh (Iran), of whom 318 were selected via random cluster sampling. The Corona Disease Anxiety Scale (Alipour et al. 2019), the five-factor NEO Personality Inventory (Costa & McCrae, 1992), The Perceived Stress Scale (Cohen et al. 1983), and The Self-Efficacy Scale (Sherer et al. 1982) were employed. The proposed model was evaluated by path analysis in AMOS and SPSS. Resalts: The results of direct hypotheses showed that agreeableness, conscientiousness and self-efficacy had a negative and inverse effect and perceived stress had a positive and direct effect on Corona disease anxiety. The results of the study of indirect hypotheses showed that conscientiousness had an indirect and inverse effect on corona disease anxiety mediated by stress and self-efficacy, and neuroticism, extraversion, and conscientiousness had an indirect effect on corona disease anxiety through perceived stress. Conclusion: Therefore, it is possible to reduce the level of corona disease anxiety in adolescents by strengthening self-efficacy as a coping resource and teaching stress management to adolescents and their effect on neuroticism, extraversion and conscientiousness, and use the obtained results in therapeutic interventions.

The research community was the mothers of children aged 4 to 9 years in Semnan city in 1400. 24 mothers were selected by the available sampling method and randomly divided into two experimental and control groups. The experimental group received 8 two-hour intervention sessions while the control group was on the waiting list. The research tools were Abidin's parenting stress index, Pianta's parent-child relationship scale, and Eyberg's child behavior questionnaire. The data were analyzed by multivariate covariance analysis. The results showed that there is a significant difference between the experimental and control groups in the parental stress, parent-child relationship, and the child's externalized problems. Only in the dependence subscale, it can be seen that this difference is not significant. This combined program can be effective in reducing parenting stress and externalizing problems of the child and reduce conflicts between parents and children and bring closer their relationship, but it is not effective in the degree of parent-child dependence.

        Basically, gears are an evolved form of friction wheels that have teeth added to them to prevent slippage and ensure relative motion uniformity. The use of polymer gears is increasing due to advantages such as corrosion resistance, injection molding capability, operation without lubricants and low noise. However, the mechanical strength, thermal resistance and durability of polymer gears are lower than metal gears. The locking mechanism in metal gears is different from polymer gears. Among the important damages that lead to failure of polymer gears is thermal deformation, which does not exist in metal gears. In polymer gears, due to the viscoelastic and plastic nature of polymers, a lot of heat is generated during gear engagement and the temperature increases. An increase in temperature causes the ribs to soften and, as a result, change their shape. Pitting, fatigue and wear are other factors that lead to failure of polymer gears. The contact stress resulting from the torque applied to the gear plays the most important role in the intensity of each of the mentioned delays. Investigating the contact stress in polymer gears, including the challenges of industrialists and researchers, will provide a better understanding for the better design of these types of gears, as well as life expectancy. This research is a review of various methods for determining and checking contact stress, including Hertz numerical model, standard method and finite element method. Manuscript profile

It was found that across the traits, agreeableness and openness to experience had the strongest relationship with job satisfaction, while the others did not have any relationship with job satisfaction. Procedural justice completely mediated the association between agreeableness and job satisfaction, and it was true about job stress as the mediating between big 5 and job satisfaction. despite the supposed path for the relationship between big 5 personality traits and job satisfaction through simultaneous effect of the two mediating variables of perception of procedural justice and job stress on job satisfaction, the mentioned path was not realized and had no effect in the model. job stress had statistically significant effect on job satisfaction and the same was true between perception of procedural justice and job satisfaction.

        The purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationship between perceived stress and craving for consumption with predicting people's return to stimulants with the mediation of self-control. This research was method descriptive-correlative. The statistical population of this research included all people who used stimulants, hospitalized in care centers in Tehran in 1400 (2019). For sample selection, 250 persons were randomly selected based on the structural modeling formula. In order to collect information, Cohen's Perceived Stress Scale, Franken's Substance Craving, Wright's Substance Return Prediction and Tanji's Self-Control Scales were used. The analysis of the research data, using the path analysis method, showed that there is a positive and significant relationship (P<0.01) between perceived stress and predicting return to stimulants with the mediation of self-control and between drug craving and predicting return to stimulants with The mediation of self-control. Also, there were a negative and significant relationship (P<0.01) between self-control and predicting return to stimulants. Thus, it can be concluded that with increase in perceived stress and the urge to use, the return to use of stimulants increases and the amount of self-control decreases, and with decrease of self-control, the return to use of stimulants increases.

        The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the effectiveness of combined compassion-focused therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy on Adherence to treatment and Parenting Stress in mothers of autistic children in Khomeinishahr city in 2023. The research was semi-experimental in the form of pre-test-post-test with a control group. In this research, the purposeful sampling method was used, and from the statistical population, which consisted of all mothers with autistic children in Khomeinishahr, whose children were being educated at the Sarai Pakan center, 30 people were selected based on the inclusion criteria and randomly replaced in two experimental and control groups. The tools were Parental Stress Questionnaire (PSI) (Abidin, 2018) and Adherence to treatment Questionnaire (Madanlu, 2012). After the pre-test, the experimental group was trained in 10 sessions of 90 minutes. Then, both groups were re-evaluated; The results were analyzed with spss software and covariance method. The results showed that the implemented treatment had an effect on the Adherence to treatment and parental tension in the post-test stage and the changes in the experimental group were statistically significant compared to the control group. (P<0.05) Also, the treatment was effective on the components of adherence to the treatment, integration with life, commitment to treatment and resourcefulness in the implementation of the treatment, and also on the components of parental stress, except relations with spouse, competence, depression, social isolation and reinforcement have been significant.

        <p>The aim of the present research was to explain the relationship between rumination and perceived stress with life satisfaction in married women in Shiraz. The research method was a descriptive and survey-based. The statistical population included all the women of Shiraz city, and 210 individuals were selected as the statistical sample size using a convenience sampling. Data were collected using the Hoeksma and Maro's Rumination Questionnaire (1991), Cohen et al.'s Perceived Stress Questionnaire (1983) and Diener Ammons Larsen and Griffin's Life Satisfaction Questionnaire (1985). The findings revealed that among the dimensions of rumination, the two components of preoccupation and depression had a negative and significant relationship with life satisfaction. However, there was no significant relationship between reflection and life satisfaction. In conclusion, the overall score of rumination was negatively and significantly related to life satisfaction, and ultimately, perceived stress is not a significant predictor of life satisfaction.</p> Manuscript profile

        60 - A review of polymer bonded explosive rheology

        Polymer-bonded explosives are widely used in defense and commercial industries. In this type of explosive, very high amounts of explosive crystals (about 90% by weight) are surrounded by a polymeric binder (about 10%), which leads to a decrease in sensitivity and a significant increase in safety during application and storage. These mixtures are molded in different ways, such as pressing, casting, extrusion, and injection. Studying the rheology of these mixtures with a high percentage of solid loading leads to finding the appropriate quality control method at different production stages. The first step was to review studies on alternatives to simulating explosive rheological behavior, such as dechlorane, calcium carbonate, sugar, etc. The general behavior of simulated mixtures, such as yield stress, shear rate dependence, time dependence, etc., is compared with original explosive. The results showed that despite the similarity in some rheological behaviors, it is impossible to predict and study all the rheological behaviors of polymer-bonded explosives using simulating materials. This paper discusses factors affecting the rheology of polymer-bonded explosives, such as particle size distribution, modification of explosive crystal surfaces, and plasticizer. A review of scientific sources showed that using a wide distribution of explosive crystal particles compared to a narrow distribution led to a significant reduction in viscosity and dependence on shear rate and time. The absence of strong interactions between crystal particles and polymer binder leads to no observation of quasi-solid behavior even in 85% by weight of explosive crystals such as octogen in hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene Manuscript profile

        The set of actions and conditions that a person or persons inflict on a person or persons to avoid a current threat is called a state of emergency. The rule of urgency refers to a ruling in case of which a person refuses to perform the obligatory rules by the rule of reason and frees himself from that severe danger by committing a forbidden act and causing harm to a person or other persons. But this damage must always be as great as the danger that is created and more damage must be avoided. Article 206 of the Civil Code, while validating an emergency transaction, states that if a person enters into a transaction as a result of a personal emergency, it is not considered contempt. The cause of external urgency is the ruling of the Cairo power, so it eliminates the causal relationship between action and distress and harm. Accordingly, the distressed person is not liable unless it can be held liable under civil liability. Components of fairness or non-fairness of contracts include abuses of the position of a person or persons in a state of emergency. This article examines whether an emergency can relieve civil liability or not, and examines the contracts that are made with distressed people, as well as the ruling on their invalidity or non-invalidity.

        The Anar fault in the east of Yazd city, with a north-northwest-south-southeast strike, is a basement fault that separates the Yazd block from the Posht Badam block, and its current activity is a dextral strike-slip with a reverse component. The paleostress analysis was done on this fault in order to obtain the tectonic history of central Iran in the period from Devonian to Cretaceous. After analyzing 110 fault data in 13 stations of 2 tectonic phases, it was determined that the maximum stress obtained is between the azimuths of 90 to 110 and 190 to 220 and the angle of stress direction changes in the period from Devonian to Cretaceous is 130 degrees. Based on the studies on the barite veins and the dextral displacements that were seen on them, the separation of the stress phases was done, which indicates that the NNE stress direction is older. Further, according to the previous studies of sedimentology and tectonics in central Iran, it was concluded that the cause of this change in tension was the movement towards the northeast along with the 130 degree counter-clockwise rotation of central Iran.

        Background: Examining the impact of short-term stress on depressive-like behavior and motor activity in rats is a crucial aspect of behavioral and neuroscience research. Short-term stress can influence rats' depressive-like behavior and decrease their motor activity. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of short-term stress on depressive-like behavior and the running index of male Wistar rats, as well as the relationship between the two variables. Materials and Methods: Examining the impact of short-term stress on depressive-like behavior and motor activity in rats is a crucial aspect of behavioral and neuroscience research. Short-term stress can influence rats' depressive-like behavior and decrease their motor activity. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of short-term stress on depressive-like behavior and the running index of male Wistar rats, as well as the relationship between the two variables. Results: Short-term stress significantly increased the 24-hour running index (P=0.01). The depression-like behavior of rats after stress induction did not show any significant difference. There was no significant relationship between the amount of running and depressive-like behavior (P=0.13). Conclusion: Based on the present findings, short-term stress caused an increase in the activity of male Wistar rats, which was not related to depressive-like behavior. Manuscript profile

        <p>One of the major challenges in modern societies caused by the industrial lifestyle is inefficient evaluations when facing challenges and tensions, leading to stress. Therefore, identifying stress-inducing factors in various diseases is clinically significant. This study aimed to examine the relationship between cognitive evaluation, self-compassion, and stress habits among women with multiple sclerosis (MS). It is a cross-sectional applied study categorized as descriptive-correlational research. The participants consisted of 130 women with MS. Data analysis was performed using regression tests and SPSS software. Data were collected using the Self-Compassion Questionnaire, the standard Kooadrun stress measurement, and the Gross and John cognitive evaluation test. Variables such as stress habits, cognitive evaluation, and self-compassion significantly influenced the regression equation (p&le;0.01), explaining 43.5% of the variance in stress habits. The prediction of stress habits based on a lack of self-kindness showed a direct relationship with a beta coefficient of 0.637. Additionally, self-kindness was positively related to stress habits, while self-compassion showed a negative significant relationship at the 0.01 level. Cognitive evaluation and its dimensions were also significant at the 0.05 level. It is recommended to implement compassion-based therapies, emotional management training, mindfulness exercises, relaxation techniques, identification of negative automatic thoughts, replacement with positive thoughts, and social support networks effective in stress management and emotional regulation training in cognitive evaluations to control stress among people with MS.</p> Manuscript profile
