Abstract
This paper deals with the role of the Theatre of the Absurd in the evolution of the history of Iranian dramatic literature. In the modern art everyone in a way is involved in the question of modern technology. Mechanization has made its way into everyday life and has affected all its aspects.This effect is so immense that everyone is in way occupied with the same subject. One of the concepts evident in the works of European authors and playwrights is absurdity and inefficiency of the modern time and the people. This article investigates how the concept of the absurd is reflected in the plays of Gholam HosseinSaedi. It has been tried to present an analysis of how Theater of the Absurd and its pioneershave influenced Saedi’s plays.

Abstract
The main goal of this study was designing and fiting a model of relationships among the components of intellectual capital and innovative behavior, with the Intervention role of knowledge sharing. So, the study was descriptive-applicant that followed correlation strategy. The populations for this study were line employees of Tehran’s hospitals; and due to the wide dispersion, 8 hospitals were chosen as key clusters. The research data were collected using standard questionnaires. The data were analyzed using structural equations. The findings of research show that intellectual capital doesn’t affect innovative behavior directly, but interventioan of knowledge sharing increases the correlation coefficient between them. On the other hand, the findings show that intellectual capital does not have direct relations with knowledge sharing. Besides the attitudes and subjective norms of employees affect the intention of to knowledge sharing; and this help to improve the relationship amonge intellectual capital and innovative behavior.

Abstract
Diversity and complexity of family structure and marriage in the Sassanid era is the significant and considerable topic that can be investigated. Emphasis on the continuity of generation, family ancestral and function of marriage in this world and the other world that caused this diversity and complexity, are the most important characteristics of Sassanid society. The old law limited the demand for women's community,while the new law mandates that the Sassanid era represents tangible progress in their affairs and women's rights issues.This article has studied marriage types, related laws with succession, and social – legal status of women. It seems that based on the social rules and privileges of marriage in the Sassanid era, women have accounted for the different tribal communities.However, the family publicly Sasanian society was firmly defined. However, the political and social events closer to the end of the historical period show that the improvement of the social and political status of women has been greatly promoted. On the other hand, if no descendant of the dynasty of the late sons for the succession is not considered as only reason, the increase in the understanding and promotion of political and social topics of women have been effective in their power demand.

Abstract
This is the first report of two ectoparasitoid wasps, Elachertus inunctus (Nees, 1834) in Iran and Elachertus pulcher (Erdös, 1961) (Hym.: Eulophidae) in the world, that parasitize larvae of the tomato leaf miner, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick, 1917) (Lep.: Gelechiidae). The specimens were collected from tomato fields and greenhouses in Ahwaz, Khouzestan province (south west of Iran). Both species are new records for fauna of Iran. The knowledge about these parasitoids is still scanty. The potential of these parasitoids for biological control of T. absoluta in tomato fields and greenhouses should be investigated.

Abstract
Alfalfa witches’ broom (AWB) is one of the most important alfalfa diseases in Iran. To characterize 16SrII group phytoplasmas associated with this disease, symptomatic and asymptomatic plants were collected during 2013-2015 and subjected to direct and nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using P1/P7, R16mF2/R16mR2 and R16F2n/R16R2. PCR amplicons of ~1.8, ~1.4 and ~1.25 kb respectively, were obtained only from all symptomatic plants. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of R16F2n/R2 amplicons showed that the phytoplasma associated with AWB disease were members of 16SrII group subgroups 16SrII-D and -C. Blast analysis of these amplicon sequences and sequence homology of collected strains and strain sequences retrived from GenBank (AWB strains Chahgeer, Juyom and Bushehr) confirmed that AWB phytoplasmas collected from Bafg, Ardakan, Bahabad and Herat (Yazd province), Nikshahr (Sistan-Baluchestan), Bam, Zarand, Jiroft (Kerman province), Bushehr (Bushehr province), Tabas (South Khorasan province), Jowkar (Hamedan province) and Zardenjan (Esfahan province) cluster with phytoplasma strains enclosed in the 16SrII-D subgroup, while AWB strains from Chahgeer (Yazd province) and Juyom (Fars province) cluster with phytoplasma strains in the 16SrII-C subgroup. Based on these results the predominant strains of 16SrII phytoplasmas associated with AWB disease in Iran were classified in the 16SrII-D subgroup. In Ashkezar and Abarkouh in Yazd province entire alfalfa farm was infected with witches’ broom disease. In 3 year alfalfa stands in Ashkezar alfalfa farms were plowed due to high incidence of the disease.

Abstract
The narrator is a fundamental concept in analyse of the narrative texts and Focalization as an interstitial element, from one side connecte to the story and the characters and from other sid connecte to the narrator's speech. Pari Saberis leili o majnoon in dramatic persian Literature and Ahmed Shoghis majnoon leili in Dramatic Arabic Literature Dramatic as other dramatic text consists of dialogue and scene descriptions. Saberi and Shoghi in the dialogue, hide themselves behind his personality that creates and contrast in a scene description directly speak to their readers and give them different information to better understand the interaction and to better visualize . Thus we can say that found both the External and Internal focalization in leili o majnoon and majnoon leili. in the description of the scene, the author does external focalization and in dialogue by the plays characters Internal focalization is done. However, the considerable differences in the model of internal focalization and focalized phrase of these two works connect to the modern and classic plays and playwriters ideology and gender.

Abstract
In this study, we have investigated Sam battles; the hero of Sam Nameh; applying structural research methodology. To this goal, at first , the collection of battles have been categorized in five agents such as subject , battle’s motif , battle adversary, adjuvants , and the results of battle. Then, by summarizing table data, we reached nine total conclusions related to the battle’s structure of this poems. At the next step, by reducing these nine conclusions, we obtained three general formula. The main function of Sam nameh hero’s battles is to highlight an exaggerated hero who is always victorious. In a non-linear study and regarding sender / motif pairs, the progress of battles is separable. The first class includes hero’s battles from beginning of the story till his departure to the land of Shadad A’d and then his battles with the king of china and his army by the motif of love.
Second class has been devoted to the collection of hero’s battles with regard to religious motifs and other marginal factors. Also, Sam Nameh hero’s is an independent actant who do not obey any king. Considering this fact and absence of no national motif , it is possible to say that Sam Nameh is not an epic work , rather this is a love story whose poet intervention in order to shape a an affected discourse has made it an exclusive work with special structures.

Abstract
Khaqani is a poet of Arrani style (Azerbaijani), and one of the most prominent features of this style is the use of various tools to make the discourse difficult. Having benefited from a reach cultural background besides a deep understanding of science and technology of his own era, Khaqani has created the magnificent images and has avoided any obscenity in his words. In other words, this diversity and variety in his poetic images may be due to the extent of Khaqani's information, research and his knowledge of historical interpretive books. One of the tools used by this poet to create his own images is allusion which can be considered a featured style of Khaqani due to its high frequency in his Divan. In his allusions, Khaqani occasionally refers to the indications which we cannot find their resources and references in the official and written literature; therefore we should search folk and oral narratives to find those references. In this research, we intend to look at the sources of some Shahnameh allusions of Khaqani which are based on oral and folk narratives and they are not mentioned in the official and written sources.

Abstract
Government correspondences and related works (books, letter-writing called Tarassol) are the most important historical documents. The accuracy of authors and amanuenses in representation of the status and the definition of the relations between social agents (public and governing apparatus), made these books function of the cultural and semantic system of its time. These texts draw consciously a kind of “unequal encounter”, so that they are suitable to study the elements of power representation in discourse. This study is based on the four discursive components: nomination, transitivity system, function of different sentences models, and modality and provides insights into the power relations. The results show that the above mentioned factors have an efficient role in the discourse of Dastur-al-katib and indicate the reciprocal role of the author in representation of the power relations. Religion and “Sharia”, as two sources of power, buttress this reciprocal discourse and at the same time had led to the emergence of hegemony in the text.

Abstract
Background: This study was designed to investigate the frequency and tissue distribution of Ornithobacterium rhinotracheale (ORT) in turkeys with respiratory syndrome in Isfahan province.
Materials & Methods: Totally, samples were taken from the trachea, lung, air sac, infraorbital sinus, hock joint, blood of heart, brain, liver, spleen, intestine, and kidney of 30 turkey flocks. After DNA extraction, a 787 bp fragment of 16S rRNA gene of ORT was amplified.
Findings: The PCR results revealed that 53% of turkeys were infected by ORT. The results showed that although ORT was mainly found in the respiratory tract, it could be systemic and infect some other organs, including the joints, brain, liver, spleen, and blood of heart, but could not infect the intestines and kidneys.
Conclusion: Due to the lack of a clear pattern in tissue distribution of ORT among clinical samples, it seems that other factors play a role in ORT tissue distribution, such as dose, route, type of infection, and probably prevalent serotype.

Abstract
Undoubtedly, Parthian coins are considered to be one of the important sources in history of Iran during 3rd century B.C. till end of Parthian empire (224 A.D.). For more than 400 years, these coins provide information about the kings, mint houses, eco-political conditions, clothes etc. for that time.
In this research, the PIXE results of 9 Drachma coins belong to Gozartes II and 6 coins belong to Khausro II are given. Different percentages in coins were observed. Eco-political analysis of Parthian era shows that high silver percentage in Gozartes II coins implies the good economical conditions in his period, and less silver percentage in Khausro II coins implies the economical weakness of his period due to 5-years war between Iran and Rome, which led to defeat of Iran.

Abstract
One of the problems related to oil recovery is water production, which reduces the production life of oil reservoirs and wells. Nowadays, the polymer gel injection method is used to control water production in the reservoir. In this study, an attempt has been made to investigate the rheological properties of xanthan-based hydrogels, considering Iran's reservoirs and also due to the existence of environmental problems in the field of synthetic polymers. The strength and stability of hydrogels can be applied by changing environmental conditions as a function of time and shear rate. For this purpose, the viscoelastic properties of hydrogels, including the elastic and viscous modulus, have been studied in relation to temperature, time and deformation rate for the gelant solution. Also, the effect of the composition of hydrogels, including the polymer concentration, the weight ratio of the crosslinking agent to the polymer, and the weight percentage of silica nanoparticles was considered in the study of rheological properties. Additionally, gelation time has been studied as one of the most important determining parameters of hydrogel during injection in porous medium.

Abstract
Nowadays the issue is that most Islamic traditions have been neglected in the society. The influence of theological and religious values on the construction and development of urban spaces are much more important. In the present study an attempt was made in order to define the Islamic city and its requirements and investigate the role of spaces related to rituals and religious ceremonies held in commemoration of Muharram through a case study of Timcheh Mozaffarieh in Tabriz Baazar. In investigating the theoretical way of study is a descriptive-analytical method and for the sample survey-analysis was applied. Data collection was done through interviewing the experts and scholars in religion, library study of the theories and definitions on the subject and field study (questionnaire). In the studied case (Timcheh Mozaffarieh in Tabriz Baazar) it was also observed that many people from most of the groups (people participating in ceremonies, businessmen in downstairs of Timcheh, businessmen in upstairs of Timcheh, heads of mourning groups, Islamic Development Staff and police) agree upon holding the five-day mourning ceremony in Timcheh Mozaffarieh in Tabriz Baazar despite of some problems, since it has been held there for about a century and transferring it to another place will damage its glory. The reason we have observed in the obtained results and findings is the sense of belonging and attachment to this place after years of holding many ceremonies in this place and the memories people have of it in their minds which are part of their lives. Another reason is the identity that holding Muharram ceremonies have given to this place through all these years. Therefore, identity along with memorable and repeatable events reinforces the potential of this place. According to the obtained results, most of people in 5 groups (people participating in ceremonies, businessmen in downstairs of Timcheh, businessmen in upstairs of Timcheh, heads of mourning groups, Islamic Development Staff and police) have agreed upon holding Ashura and Tasua mourning ceremonies in Timcheh Mozaffarieh in Tabriz Bazar which gives a special identity and fame to this place, and provides a sense of belonging to it. However, there are some problems in holding these ceremonies and an attempt was made to solve them by studying the problems and suggesting some solutions and also try to maintain the originality and durability of this precious place, which is due to holding special rituals and mourning ceremonies in Muharram, by inviting participants in these ceremonies, heads of mourning groups and businessmen in Timcheh to help.

Abstract
Aims: Experienced bodily sensation with basic emotions seems to be a universal phenomenon, but
cross-cultural differences are expected. This study was designed to determine the topographic map of changes across six basic emotions and anxiety in a sample of Iranian people and to compare their perception of emotion-related bodily changes by sex.
Materials & Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 220 Iranians aged 16-55 years. The Persian pencil and paper version of the emBODY application was used and validated during the study. The results were analyzed by SPSS 20 software using generalized linear models to determine the relationship between gender and emotion sensation in 5 main body areas and three main facial parts.
Findings: Anxiety was the most common reported basic emotion, and anger, fear, sadness, joy, surprise, and disgust, respectively, were identified basic emotions in both sexes. GLMs were significant (p<0.05) for bodily sensation changes in the head and neck, upper body, upper and lower limbs, and all three main facial parts. Results also showed a significant gender difference in lower limbs (p<0.05).
Conclusion: The results suggested the consistency of distinct emotion-triggered bodily sensation maps of Iranians with universal patterns.

Abstract
Wheat flour was substituted with oat flour by 0, 10, 20, 30, and 40% to investigate the effect on dough rheology and bread sensory quality and texture. Water absorption and dough development time in oat composite doughs increased with an increasing level of oat flour, whereas dough resistance, extensibility and bread firmness decreased. Dough sof-tening increased with an increased level of oat flour while the addition of oat flour im-proved bread shelf life and reduced the yellowness of bread. Breads produced with up to 20% oat flour were stable and with good quality as indicated by sensory evaluation. Oat flour had larger particle size in comparison to wheat flour. Breads produced with 30% and 40% oat flour had a bitter after taste, unacceptable to the sensory panelists.

Abstract
The “unreliable narrator” is of high significance among the modern narrative issues, that is a person due to the restricted knowledge and having no enough information, memory and Alzheimer disorders, psychosis, no attention to the grammatical signs in narrating events, speech and behavior contradiction, fear and doubt, as well as prejudice narrate those events which are incredible. Through the descriptive-analytical approach, the proposed research compares novels “Quabis Beirut” written by Ghadat-al-Saman, the Syrian author, and “Prince Ehtejab” written by Houshang Golshiri, the Iranian author, based on the components of unreliable narrator. The results indicate that the narrators of both novels are psychotic and disturbed, and this psychosis is more evident in the novel “Quabis Beirut” and the nightmare title of this novel is a clear reason itself for undesired mental state of its narrator. Both narrators have less information about the events; therefore, they regularly use the word "maybe" in their speech, and even when using the word "for sure", the sentences’ context implies their uncertainty. Both narrators are permanently in fear and hesitation states and transmit it to their reader. Memory disorder, uncalled-for repetitions, as well as speech and behavior contradiction have invalidated their narration, of course, the narrator’ non-reliability in Prince Ehtejab was prominent more with another factor called his prejudice against the Qajar dynasty, which prevented some reports being impartially presented.

Abstract
The complex three-dimensional flow characteristics in river bends necessitates the use of a three-dimensional
numerical model. The numerical model used in this paper is called SSIIM (Sediment Simulation In Intakes with
Multiblock option).The 3D model already has showed satisfactory results in related applications. In this study,
SSIIM is applied to study the variation of channel bed under steady flows in a 180 mild curved open-channel
with sandy bed. Bed roughness was calibrated to ks 4.5 d90 6.25d50 . Comparison of results showed good
agreement between the computed and measured bed topography. The model simulated both the point bars near
the inner bank and the scour holes near the outer bank. In addition, the positions of these phenomena are in fair
agreement with the measured data. Numerical results show some dependencies on the grid size. In addition,
deviations of model from the experimental data as well as uncertainties in numerical modeling are discussed.

Abstract
The fruit of has a lot of acidic proteases and its extract has been used in cheese manufacturing. However, there are few studies about purification and characterization of this enzyme. must be satisfied for the enzyme to be used in industry: 1- stability of enzymes against metal ions and 2- Ability to sustain proper function and stability in the absence of metal ion. Accordingly, in this investigation, the effect of various ions different concentrations activity, stability and somewhat on structural properties of the purified protease were studied. Based on the results, it was shown that the enzyme was relatively stable against NaCl and CaCl2, but by increment of these salts, stability and activity of enzyme . Also, the enzyme was stable against low concentration of various metal ions and only Hg2+ reduces enzyme stability and activity. By studying the role of 2+ of , it was found that 2+ have any role in thermal stability of enzyme at 67˚C. Likewise, by observing the effect of metal ions on of it was that all tested ions increased intensity of emission and caused to shift toward lower wave length. In all, of these showed that the purified enzyme from bad is very stable against various metal heavy metals and it is favorable for industrial application.

Abstract
Genus Lentinula comprises some of the most important edible and medicinal fungal species of the world. To compare growth rate of the strains of this genus, samples were collected from different regions of the world including Iran during 2017-2018. Investigation of the growth of 40 strains on two substrates containing malt and wheat straw extracts showed their relatively excellent performance on both media. Based on preliminary growth characteristics of the strains, 20 strains were selected to study their growth rate on natural substrate containing defined proportion of straw (40%) + sawdust (40%) + wheat bran (20%). Three strains including VM230 (UK strain), VM267 (Belgium strain) and VM353 (Japanese strain) showed high growth rate (65.25, 63.75 and 64.50 mm d-1, respectively), and were identified as Lentinula edodes by ITS4 and ITS5 sequencing. Growth rate of the best strain (VM230) was evaluated on different substrates containing different proportions of straw, sawdust and wheat bran. The highest growth rate (58.75 mm d-1) for VM230 was recorded on wheat straw (80%) + wheat bran (20%). These three strains are promising for commercial production of Shiitake.
