EFFECTS OF HEAD PRUNING AND DIFFERENT NUTRITIONAL SYSTEMS (CHEMICAL, BIOLOGICAL AND INTEGRATED) ON SEED YIELD AND OIL CONTENT IN MEDICINAL PUMPKIN (CUCURBITA PEPO L.)

Effects of head pruning and different nutritional systems (chemical, biological and integrated) on seed yield and oil content in medicinal pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo L.)

To evaluate the effect of head pruning and different nutritional systems (chemical, biological and integrated) on yield and seed oil content in medicinal pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo L.), an experiment was conducted in Kermanshah/Iran during the 2013 growing season.The experimental treatments consisted of two levels - no head pruning, control (Co) and h

The Seismic Investigation of Off-Diagonal Steel Braced RC Frames

Steel bracing may be used to enhance the seismic strength of RC frames.Concentric steel Bread bracing generally reduces ductility, which is a key component of seismic design.To overcome the problem, ductile steel brace-RC frame systems are therefore usually introduced in the form of eccentric braces.In the present study, the Off-Diagonal Bracing Sy
