Abstract
The increasing ubiquity and impact of audiovisual content has turned it into one of the primary objects of study in a number of disciplines in humanities, including Translation Studies. In the recent decade, audiovisual translation (AVT) has been a thriving research focus in many parts of the world. This article aims at mapping AVT in the context of Iran by reviewing the published Persian AVT research worldwide. The article is organized into two parts: the first part provides an overview of the main research articles, delineating the main research trends in AVT research in Iran. The second part presents and discusses research gaps and areas that merit further scholarly attention by academia. The article concludes that research on the topic in Iran is still in a fairly early stage, with the studies focusing mainly on dubbing and subtitling of audiovisual products. Furthermore, areas such as accessibility and inclusion, in particular, voice-over and game localization are grossly under-researched. To fill the gap, certain areas are highlighted and recommended for future research.

Abstract
This research examines the lexical processing of head-first endocentric compounds in Persian based on semantic transparency. This study shows whether the processing is related to the morpheme-based, whole-word, or dual-root models. Moreover, this research concludes whether the processing is associated with sublexical or supralexical models. Two separate masked priming tasks are conducted. In the first experiment, the compound word is the primed word and the modifier is the target. In the second experiment, the prime is the compound word and the target is the head. Three conditions are considered: transparent, opaque, and orthographic-overlap. In order to analyze the result, mixed models are used. The results show significant priming effects for transparent and opaque conditions. While no priming effect is shown for the orthographic-overlap condition. It can be concluded that the lexical processing of head-first endocentric compounds is independent of semantic transparency. The processing is morpheme-based and it is on the basis of the sublexical model. Furthermore, the semantic processing of these words is supralexical. Moreover, the lack of priming effect for the orthographic conditions is seemingly associated with orthographic complexity in the Persian writing system.

Abstract
The implementation of enterprise resource planning is complex, and the failure rate remains excessive. This study proposes a prediction approach based on FDEMATEL and FMCDM for ERP success. The literature has reported over 30 critical success factors for ERP implementation, but companies typically are not aware to exploit them. At first, about 21CSFs from literature and expert opinion are elaborated into key performance indices, which are categorized in three groups; organizational, tactical and technical factors. These factors associated with each stage of ERP implementation by ten local ERP experts. Second, a three stage ERP implementation model is proposed. Further, it uses fuzzy DEMATEL and the evaluation of ten experts to evaluate weighting of each CSFs. At the next step after using FMCDM method to obtain possible rating of success of ERP performance, remedial actions are identified to see if the performance is below expectation. The proposed approach is helpful to predict the success of ERP without actually adopted ERP in companies. Iran Khodro Khorasan Company is selected to illustrate the effects of the assessment model, which is also currently is using consulting company specializing in ERP implementation services. With further evaluation by local experts, the model has the potential to serve as a guideline for ERP implementation (even in other countries). Results confirmed that organizations considering organizational factors less than other factors. some of important factors are top management support, identification of ERP objects, change management, sufficient financial budget, project management, sufficient implementation team, effective communication and training.

Abstract
Aims: Pain and discomfort caused by Work related Musculoskeletal Disorders(WMSDs) is one of the most common health problems that is common in almost all jobs worldwide. Considering the importance of early prevention and treatment of these disorders, the purpose of this research is to investigate the prevalence of WMSDs and their risk factors among repair workers through using Quick Exposure Check (QEC).
Method and Materials: In this descriptive-analytical study, 50 auto repairers in Sabzevar city were selected by census method. The Nordic questionnaire was used to determine the prevalence of WMSDS and the QEC posture assessment method was used to determine the risk level of suffering from these disorders.
Findings: According to the results of the Nordic questionnaire, 58% (N=29) of the studied subjects had pain and discomfort in at least one of the nine areas of the musculoskeletal system during the last 12 months. The highest rate was reported in the waist (46%, N=23), knee (34%, N=17) and shoulder (16%, N=8) regions. Furthermore, 84% (N=42) of people were in the 3rd and 4th priority level of corrective action based on the QEC method.
Conclusion: This study showed that skeletal-muscular disorders have the highest prevalence in the waist and knee areas. This means that paying attention to the risk factors of disorders related to these areas and removing them from the work environment can be an effective measure in improving work conditions and preventing these complications.

Abstract
Background: Assessment of rubella immunity coverage relies on regular updates. This study aimed to determine the age-specific seropositivity rates among a large cohort of pregnant women approximately 12 years after vaccine introduction in Tunisia, where serosurveys are both old and scarce.
Materials & Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted on pregnant women referring to the Maternity and Neonatology Center of Tunis in 2017. Eligible and consenting participants underwent blood sampling twice with a 15-day interval to detect and measure rubella-specific IgG and IgM antibodies. Demographic and obstetric data were also gathered.
Findings: A total of 800 participants with a mean age of 30.6±5 years (range: 17-48) were enrolled in this study. The overall seropositivity rate was 90.4% (n=723) (95%CI: 88.3-92.4). Also, 77 (9.6%) (95%CI: 7.6-11.7) participants were seronegative, among them 36 cases were in the first trimester of their pregnancy. The WHO minimum rubella immunization threshold of 95% was achieved for the first time in the 12-year-old vaccination program target population (96%) (95%CI: 92-99.8). No significant association was found between seropositivity rates and age, geographic origin, occupation, gestational age at the time of enrollment, parity, and abortion history (p> .05), but a significant association was found with educational levels.
Conclusion: Pregnant women vaccinated at the age of 12 showed a high immunization rate. Next decades would witness the elimination of rubella virus circulation as well as congenital rubella syndrome.

Abstract
Objective: Helicobacter pylori is to blame for one of the most common chronic infections in humans and can cause peptic ulcer, gastritis, duodenitis and non-ulcer dyspepsia. Developing a reliable test to detect the infection is of great importance. For a variety of reasons, the existing tests including the stool culture, biopsy, PCR, and urea breath test are not up to par. The PCR-ELISA test is a preferably specific and sensitive approach to detect Helicobacter pylori in stool specimen and biopsy.
Materials and Methods: Sixty-seven stool samples were collected from 127 patients who had undergone gastrointestinal endoscopy and stomach biopsy at Hazrat Rasool Akram Hospital, of Iran University of Medical Sciences based in Tehran. DNA was extracted from the samples before they were subjected to PCR of ureC gene. PCR-ELISA test was conducted and the results were compared.
Results: Stool-PCR test 31 (46.1%) of the 67 patients in question were positive and the same test on biopsies showed that 34 patients (50.7%) were infected while the rest tested negative. But the PCR-ELISA test on stool samples suggested that 42 patients (62.6%) were infected, and the same test on biopsies showed that 47 patients (70.1%) were positive.
Conclusion: The results of these tests showed that detection of Helicobacter pylori through PCR-ELISA test on stool samples has high specificity and sensitivity and could be used as initial test to detect Helicobacter pylori infection.

Abstract
Polymeric Due to high strength to weight ratio of polymeric composites and their directional properties, they are extensively used in engineering, particularly in aerospace industry. However, the difference in material properties of composites makes their failure prediction complicated especially under cyclic loading. Present study is carried out to develop a new method for estimation of the intralaminar fatigue damage of fibrous composites based on continuum damage mechanics. In order to include the influence of microscopic defects in three material orientations, three internal material state variables namely damage variables are defined in thermodynamics framework. By considering a 3-directional damage propagation, suggested model is able to make a good prediction of laminated composites fatigue life. To achieve this, a closed form solution by energy method in framework of thermodynamics is presented. The solution is in a way to include the differences in damages of various directions yet maintaining the independency on the layup. The model is implemented in ANSYS software by using a user material code (Usermat). This method gives us an advantage to estimate the fatigue life of any laminate with arbitrary layup under different loading conditions only by having static and fatigue properties of a unidirectional ply. Characterization of constants of model is presented and they are also determined for a certain composite material. Comparison between the predicted results of proposed model and the available experimental data verifies the great precision of the model.

Abstract
In this paper, the internal inversion process of metallic cylindrical shells under dynamic axial loading is investigated experimentally and numerically. Experimental tests are performed on the steel tubes in a gas gun and the required force for internal inversion is obtained using the measurement system of impact loadings. Also, numerical analysis is carried out by the finite element software ABAQUS and the accuracy of simulated models are validated with the experimental results. In this paper, all geometrical properties of the tubes and die are assumed to be constant and the effect of the projectile mass and velocity is investigated on the shortening and energy absorption of the tubes which are affected by axial impact in the internal inversion process. Therefore the projectile is shot directly to the specimen with different masses and velocities. It is observed that if the projectile mass remains constant, increasing in the impact velocity has almost no effect on the constant inversion load and just increase the tube displacement but if the impact velocity remains constant, increasing the amount of projectile mass causes increasing in the constant inversion load besides of increasing in tube displacement. Comparing the results of numerical simulations with the experimental results shows a good agreement between them.

Abstract
In this paper, in order to explain the scope of the parties' will in one of the most fundamental issues related to arbitration, the capacity of natural and legal persons for referring to arbitration has been studied. The study of legal verdicts and thoughts (judgments and opinions), national and international rules, and regulations governing international commercial arbitrations, simple laws, conventions and rules of international arbitration organizations show that the dominance (governance) of the freedom of will principle is always present in these subjects. However, in some legal systems, there are some limitations for legal persons of public law such as predicted in the Article 139 of Iranian Constitution. These constraints that are exceptional only in the realm of internal rights, are respected, and based on the international commercial arbitration procedures in the international commercial, there are ignored because they say these limitations are contrary with the international and transnational public orders.

Abstract
In the present study, the convergence behavior of the direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method is extensively explored. The Simplified Bernoulli Trials (SBT) collision algorithm is applied to simulate a one-dimensional nano Fourier heat conduction problem, which consists of rarefied gas confined between two infinite parallel plates with unequal temperatures. The investigations compares the Sonine-polynomial coefficients ak calculated from the DSMC results with theoretical predictions of the Chapman-Enskog (CE) theory. In addition, the convergence behavior of the wall heat flux and the ratio of the DSMC-calculated bulk thermal conductivity (KDSMC) to the infinite-approximation of CE theoretical value (K) is studied. The numerical accuracy of the DSMC method is found to be restricted in regards to three parameters: time step, cell size, and number of computational particles per cell. The dependency of the SBT collision algorithm on these discretization errors has been investigated in comparison with the standard collision algorithm, i.e., no time counter (NTC). The results indicate that SBT can achieve analytical solutions of the Sonine polynomials using fewer particles per cell than NTC. Moreover, in the SBT algorithm, the effective parameter in the convergence is Δx/Δt ratio, which should be adjusted accurately. This study shows that by decreasing the number of particle per cell to even one particle in a constant Δx/Δt setting, the SBT algorithm accurately predicts solutions where the NTC algorithm fails.

Abstract
Clayey soils usually have low bearing capacity, high compressibility, shrinkage and swell characteristics. Several methods have been adopted to improve the geotechnical properties of such soils. Soil stabilizing by chemical materials is one of the most common methods for treating fine grained soils. Lime has been used to improve some mechanical and plastic properties of fine grained soils since many years ego. In recent years some studies has been also carried out to investigate the influence of adding pozzolany materials on the geotechnical properties of lime – treated clayey soils. Geotechnical behavior of clayey soils depends on chemistry of pore fluid. When drinking water is used to provide the needed moisture of soil in the laboratory, it will be lead to incorrect interpretation in engineering properties of soil where specific water such as sea water is utilized. Therefore, if the undrinkable water has been used to provide soil moisture, it is necessary to examine the behavior characteristics of the materials by the same water. For example, presence of some sulphates in the soil stabilized with lime leads to problems such as reduction of strength and increase of swelling in clay. In this laboratory study, effect of sea water on strength of stabilized kaolinite has been investigated by conducting several unconfined compression tests. The specimens were prepared at fore percentage of lime and pozzolan (i.e.0%,1%,3%,5%) by weight of dry soil and distilled water and three saline water which were taken from Caspian Sea, Persian Gulf and Urmia Lake. for every combination ,weight of each material was determined exactly based on the optimum moisture content and maximum dry density which is obtained from the standard proctor compaction test. Clay and lime and pozzolan were mixed in dry condition properly and then water was added gradually. Afterwards, the mixtures were kept in plastic bags for 24 hours. Weight of each specimen was determined in accordance with given specific volume and obtained maximum dry density from compaction test. This weight was divided into four portion and each portion was compacted in 20 mm layer in a PVC mold . The specimens were cured in a oven having a temperature about 35 ֠ C for 3, 7 and 14 days. After each curing time a extruder was used to remove the specimens from the molds with constant rate vertically to avoid bending and formation of tensile cracks. Then the specimens were immediately tested under strain controlled at constant loading rate of 1.0 mm per minute , according to requirements of ASTM D 2166. For each combination , three specimens were examined to assure repeatability of results. The results of conducted experiments indicate that unconfined strength of samples without additives (lime and pozzolan) prepared by sea water are higher than specimens containing distilled water. For the samples containing Urmia lake water, the unconfined strength were higher than the other samples. Also, for the specimens in which additive has been used, the strength of the samples containing Caspian Sea and Persian Gulf water were more than that with distilled water and the strength of samples containing Urmia lake water was less because of differences in the concentration of salts existed in the water . Finally, the results show that water minerals are higher in Urmia lake water, Persian Gulf and Caspian Sea, respectively.

Abstract
Due to the importance of consuming meat and meat products especially sausage and bologna and the adverse effects of using synthetic preservatives used in them, this study aimed to investigate the effect of natural preservative on shelf-life of cooked beefbologna and comparison with sodium nitrite as synthetic preservative. the effect of chitosan (0, 0.5 and 1%) added individually or in combination with CCEO nanoemulsion (0, 1, 2 and 3%) as an alternative for sodium nitrite on microbiological (Total Viable Counts, Coliforms, Lactic acid bacteria (LAB), molds and yeasts), pH and water holding capacity (WHC), of beef bologna stored at 4 °C for 30 days was investigated. The experiment was performed in completely randomized based on factorial in 3 replication. Duncans test at 5% probability level was used to determine the significant difference mean between the data. Results indicated that chitosan addition resulted in significant (p< 0.05) inhibition of microbial growth, so that the lowest microbial counts were obtained in the samples containing both chitosan and CCEO nanoemulsion indicating a possible synergistic effect. Chitosan also improved the WHC and reduced the synersis of the samples during shelf-life respect to the control, while CCEO nanoemulsion had no significant effect on these parameters (p>0.05). The combination of chitosan (1%) with CCEO nanoemulsion (2-3%), which showed the best results, could have a valuable potential for commercial use in order to improve preservation of meat products without the use of nitrites or other synthetic additives.

Abstract
In this article, a famous sonnet by Hafez is briefly analyzed based on Van Dijk's (professor of discourse analysis) ideological square & Based on some discursive factors, it is analyzed and interpreted in terms of form and content and it is analyzed how Hafez highlighted the positive characteristics of "we" (Hafez, mystics) while writing a lyric. And he has distinguished the negative characteristics of "others" (the kings). And he has shown the negative qualities of "self" and the positive qualities of "others" and he shows that they are less important. These four cases are the basic cases of Van Dijk's theory in the analysis of texts and speeches. The main goal of this research is to know more about the moral and social views of Hafez and his time through the poems that From the point of view of the theory of critical discourse analysis, it has been evaluated.
The method of this research is descriptive-analytical (qualitative) and its data was collected using the library method. Among the results of the current research is this that by introducing the linguistic and rhetorical methods of Hafez & in expressing moral and critical issues, his great human and social concerns should be introduced. In this way, Hafez has expressed his critical discourse by using direct and indirect expression, and by using appropriate vocabulary and syntax and rhetorical ironics. He criticizes us by highlighting our positive qualities such as avoiding bad language and prejudice and avoiding wrongdoing, and he has talked about the negative characteristics of others such as saying bad things and hearing bad things, thinking bad things and slandering.
