In light of the rapid global urbanization, providing a better quality of life in cities is becoming an increasingly
critical issue for urban planning. However, the links between the built environment and subjective well-being are
not sufficiently understood. This paper reviews the evidence on the range of pathways linking the built environment to subjective well-being. Seven potential pathways are identified and reviewed: ( travel,  leisure,
 work,  social relationships, residential well-being,  emotional responses, and  health. Based on
this knowledge, the paper presents an overview of strategies for improving subjective well-being through urban
planning. Among others, proposed strategies are to: enhance conditions for active travel; improve public
transport while restricting cars; provide easy access to facilities and services; develop or steer technology and
emerging mobility options to improve inclusiveness and quality of life for different groups; integrate various
forms of urban nature as much as possible; provide accessible, inclusive public spaces and communal spaces;
maintain upkeep and order in urban space, vegetation, and transport systems; implement noise reduction strategies; develop aesthetically pleasing buildings and public spaces based on residents’ needs and preferences; and
reduce socio-spatial inequalities while providing support for housing and transport for vulnerable groups.

Parks can play an important role in creating and strengthening a sense of neighborhood belonging. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of vitality components of urban parks on the sense of belonging to the neighborhood. This study was conducted to determine the correlation between the vitality components of urban parks and the sense of belonging of the neighborhood among the residents of Hadiabad neighborhood of Qazvin. Accordingly, 306 people who referred to Hadiabad Park were randomly studied. A questionnaire with 36 components and 8 dimensions was used to collect data. In order to analyze the data, SPSS software was used by Spearman correlation and regression statistical methods. The results of this study showed that the correlation between the vitality factors of the park and the sense of belonging to the neighborhood was significant at the level of 0.1. The vitality components of the park in the physical, functional, social and environmental fields with 0.541, 0.480, 0.462 and 0.398, respectively, had the greatest impact on the sense of belonging to the neighborhood. Considering the role of vitality components of urban parks and the impact of each of them on creating and strengthening the sense of belonging of the neighborhood, trying to maintain them in urban neighborhoods, increases the environmental quality and social and physical development of the neighborhood. The vitality of urban parks, which represents the intangible benefits of using urban parks, may serve as a useful and feasible gateway for addressing and managing nature in neighborhoods.

One methods to critique translation is its assessment in order to determine the quality of the translation including the patterns presented in this type of evaluation and critique based on the Garces's evaluation model. This study intends to critique and evaluate the lexical selections of Hadad Adel, Moezzi, and Ansariyan's translation in verses 29 and 30 of the holy Qur'a according to the proposed Graces model at semantic-lexical level and seeks to determine extent to which Haddad Adel, Moezzi, and Ansarian's translations conform with the Garces's modelboth lexically and semantically. The study is rather a descripive-analytic one in terms of design. The findings indicate that the translations of the translators can be critiqued and evaluated in terms components of Garce 's model in a way that the translations of each translator can be regarded as an explanation (explanatory and lexical explanation), or as plenty of parallels, parallelism, syntactic expansions, and the transmission of ambiguity. Verification of the correspondence of translations with the semantic-lexical level of the Graces model shows that the Ansarian's translation in all of this level, except for the syntactic note, enjoys the highest level of correspondence with the semantic-lexical level, and secondly, the Hadad Adel's translation is used moderately at this level. In such a way that all of these levels are observed in their translations. Finally, the Moezzi's translation due to its literal translation enjoys the highest match except for the syntactic note among other cases and the lowest level of applicability and utilization of the Garces's model.

Abstract: Regard to investigations that are done about destructive earthquakes contemporarily and by contemplating on effects of different earthquakes on various types of structural systems and by recording acceleration of ground motions , researchers detected different effects of destruction in range about 15 to 60 kilometers far from epicenter of earthquake that is nominated as near fault earthquakes. the subsequences of researches which have been done in this field shows that mapping near to the fault have less effective time than mapping which are far from the fault and have one or more special pulse with a large domain and with medium to large frequency which causes to increase the domain of response spectrum in the zone of large period. and applying huge energy in short time and Sudden intense pulse in the beginning of near fault timehistories causes increasing the demand of rotational ductility in some stories and joints. In this article Regard to reliability of steel plate shear walls in recent four decades and also the fact that these structural systems have appropriate ductility to control displacements, height energy dissipation and ductile failure mechanism, the dynamic behavior of these systems is investigated .Four finite element models of 3,7,15 and 25 story buildings that used steel thin plate shear wall with hinge beam to column connections as resistant systems has created and analyzed through nonlinear dynamic analysis in ABAQUS finite element software and then response of structures such as story shear and drift angles of stories were detected. Results postulate the effects of shear distribution in near fault and regard to these purposes it seems that this fact is caused of effects of higher modes in far fault earthquakes. This situation cause of the fact that the frequency containers of near fault earthquakes are higher in range of height periods .besides Response of structures such as damage index and base shear, show that in tall steel plate shear walls (T>0.7s) effect of near fault movements on response parameters are more than those in the far fault zone. It also can be seen that base shear of the structures in far fault earthquakes fluctuates in more extended range compared to which happens in near fault structures and in near fault earthquakes base shear of most time histories don’t have much differences but in far fault earthquakes differences are relatively much. By increasing the height of SPSW’s differences between displacements in near fault and far fault earthquakes ascends. Maximum of differences between near fault and far fault responses appear in boundary of 40% to 60% of height of walls. Eventually can be said that not only higher PGA of most near fault earthquakes is a distinctive attribute in accordance with far fault earthquakes, but also higher frequency container in long period range would be devastating, regardless to higher PGA of these earthquakes.

Clovers (Trifolium spp.) are one of the main forage crops in temperate regions. This research was conducted to identify water-stressed tolerance among Iranian wild annual clovers under different climatic regions. Seventeen accessions, belonging to seven species, were planted in a field in two consecutive years, at two locations (Mashhad and Urmia) in Iran, under normal and water-stressed conditions. Combined analysis of variance, Scheffe analysis, and Duncan’s new multiple range test showed significant differences in forage production among clover accessions as well as species. In addition, drought-tolerance/susceptibility indices were calculated for each accession and species. Then, these indices were applied in factor analysis. Extracted Bi-plot based on factor analysis confirmed the results of Duncan and Scheffe analyses. In water-stressed conditions, T. resupinatum (cultivated accession) produced the highest forage in Urmia with 349 mm annual rainfall, whereas in Mashhad, with 149.8 mm annual precipitation, T. purpureum and T. echinatum (both, wild species) had the highest production. The accessions as well as species were ranked based on their forage production for each location and experiment. Ultimately, this work proposed some new Trifolium species, such as T. echinatum, T. diffusum, and T. purpureum, for forage production in agronomic systems.

Corebanking is a comprehensive and integrated system for responding timely and accurately to customer's demands and reporting their information. This task is done through various communication channels between customers and banks and a common database between all branches in order to staying in competition. For the optimum and strategical usage and utilizing IT in our goals path, we have to use a roadmap to implement new technologies. So far for different fields and usage and control of technologies this strategic roadmaps have been provided. COBIT as an IT governance framework is one of these frameworks which is used for both guide and control of IT in organizations. In this study, we provide a core banking IT governanvce model based on COBIT framework. For this reason we determine the activities required for operation of corebanking by using structural equation modeling and significance of relationship between COBIT processes and activities with the activities needed to achieve core banking. To allocate the sub-process of the COBIT for each of the activities of corebanking we used questionaries and Delphi technic.

Universal access to higher education and radical increase in demand for higher education in 2000s necessitated the expansion of higher education institutions. The rise in the number of such institutions was unprecedented. In fact, all districts of Iran had a higher education institution by 2008. Even very small districts received a private or public higher education institution to reduce transportation costs and expand access to higher education. This enhanced access has a more disproportionate effect on women compared to men. In this paper we combine data on higher education institutions between 1999 and 2016 with educational outcomes of individuals aged between 18 to 35 years old in the population census 2016 to estimate the impact of access to higher education on educational attainment and educational gender gap. Using district and age fixed effects, we do not find a significant effect on overall education of individuals. However, women received a significantly larger benefit from the expansion of higher education institutions.
