Abstract
A study was conducted to determine irrigation scheduling of pinto bean and to evaluate the effect of its planting date. A split-plot with complete randomized block design with four replications was used at Isfahan University of Technology Research Station in Shervedan-Falavarjan, The main plots were three irrigation regimes of T1 to T3 (irrigation after 50±3, 70±3 and 90±3 mm evaporation from class A pan, respectively) and the sub-plots were two planting dates of May 28 and June 28.
The results showed that delayed planting from May to June caused earlier flowering, physiological maturity and reduction of 29.6% in grain yield. Grain yield in T1 to T3 treatments were 3585.1, 3510.5 and 1925.8 kg/ha, respectively. The difference between grain yields of T1 and T2 with T3 treatments were significant at 1% probability level. Biological yields at May 28 and June 28 planting dates were 8257.1 and 5535 kg/ha, respectively, which were significantly different. There was no significant difference between biological yields of T1 and T2 treatments. Number of pods per square meter was the most important component of grain yield and 85% of grain yield difference was due to this part. Harvest index was affected by irrigation treatment and planting date. Mean harvest indices for T1 to T3 treatments were 45.5, 46.1 and 37%, respectively, and 42.8% and 44.9% for the two planting dates. Water use efficiencies for grain yield in T1 to T3 treatments were 0.557, 0.556 and 0.329 kg/m3, respectively. Generally, treatment T2 was shown to be the best irrigation regime.

Abstract
Low calorie salad dressings are oil-in-water emulsion products, in which the oil content has been substantially decreased. This decrease, however, is accompanied by reduction in the viscosity hence, an undesirable texture. To overcome this, oil replacers are generally used. In this research, maltodextrin and xanthan gum were used to replace part of the oil in the production of two kinds of salad dressings mayonnaise and three Italian salad dressing. Various formulations of these products with varying amounts of oil, maltodextrin and gum at different temperatures were produced. Viscosities in the range of 50-140 Pa.s for mayonnaise and 2-15 Pa.s for Italian dressing were accepted as positive criteria and samples in these ranges were chosen for organoleptic and microbial tests.
The results showed that in the formulation of mayonnaise, simultaneous increase in the amount of oil, maltodextrin and gum created a high viscosity, but the temperature did not play any significant role. In the Italian salad dressing, the increase in the amount of gum was accompanied by development of pseudoplastic characteristics which was not desirable, hawever, the effect of temperature on providing acceptable texture was found to be important. Although the formulated mayonnaise enjoyed a fairly acceptable quality, the Italian salad dressing samples, were ranked superior to the common Italian salad dressing available in the Iranian market.

Abstract
Aqueous extraction of gum from flaxseed was optimized using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). In this study the effect of temperature (45-100 °C), pH (3-7) and water/seed ratio (4-24), on the dependent variables including: yield, protein and apparent viscosity of extracted gum were investigated. The results showed that temperature and pH are two major effective factors on yield and quality of extracted gum (purity and apparent viscosity), whereas water/seed ratio had minor effects. The optimized conditions of extraction were as follows: temperature 85- 90 oC pH 6.5- 7.0 and water/seed ratio 14. Apparent viscosities of extracted gums were determined and the effect of extraction conditions on rheological properties of flaxseed gum was investigated.

Abstract
Discharge routing as a mathematic process to forecast the changes of greatness, speed and form of flood wave is function of time in one or more points along drainage, canal or reservoir. Hydrologic and hydraulic methods are used to accomplish the flood routing. Although hydrologic method is less accurate than hydraulic methods but it is simpler to use in flood control and designing works with acceptable confidence. This study has been conducted for flood routing in Lighvan River from Lighvam hydrometric station to Hervy hydrometric station in eastern Azerbaijan Province in a distance the 12 Km. The discharge for different return periods (2, 10, 20, 50 and 100 years) was calculated by using upstream stations data. Then routing of every flood discharge was studied with different return periods by Muskingum and Muskingum-Cunge methods. Results showed significant difference between calculated discharges routing by two methods with discharge values to relate that return period in Hervy hydrometric station. The reasons of exist this different, is numerous for example mountain location this area and to exist sub drainage in between two stations and etc.

Abstract
The relationship between intensity-duration-frequency of rainfall is a significant tool for estimating flood discharge. According to the sparsely available rain gauge stations and the development of technology, it is possible to use satellite rainfall data with different temporal and spatial resolutions. PERSIANN rainfall data with a time resolution of 1 and 6 hours were used in this research. Also, the spatial resolution of these data is 0.04 x 0.04 degrees. Rainfall data from synoptic stations around the Kan basin were also used. Three common continuous probability distributions of Gamble, Pearson type 3, and Log Pearson type 3 with return periods of 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 years were investigated to calculate and check the IDF curve. In general, the precipitation intensity obtained from Gumble's method was more than Pearson Type 3's method. Log Pearson type 3 distribution did not provide acceptable results in this research. The two interpolation methods of inverse distance weighting and empirical Bayesian kriging were used to generalize the frequency intensity curves to the entire Kan basin. The results showed little difference between these two methods, except for Pearson type 3 probability distribution.

Abstract
Piano key weirs are a type of non-linear weir that have a higher discharge coefficient than similar linear weirs. These hydraulic structures have a lightweight foundation and a simple structure is designed and installed on dams and drainage channels. Due to the high efficiency of these weirs, the investigation of downstream scour and ways to reduce it has been the focus of engineers in recent years. In the present study, a trapezoidal type C piano key weir, three discharges, and three tailwater depths were used. Two obstacles with heights of 0.02 and 0.04 meters were also used at the end of the weir exit keys. The results showed that the presence of an obstacle reduces scour at the toe of the weir. The amount of reduction in scour at the toe of the weir was greater in the weir with a larger obstacle height than in the weir with a smaller obstacle height, and in both cases was less than in the simple weir. The presence of an obstacle reduces the maximum depth of scour and moves the distance of the maximum depth of scour away from the toe of the weir. In the weir with obstacle heights of 0.02 and 0.04 meters, compared to the weir without an obstacle, the amount of maximum scour depth is approximately 16.4% and 26.9% less, and the distance of the maximum scour depth is approximately 8.7% and 19.1% more than the weir without an obstacle. The scour index in weirs with obstacles is less than in weirs without obstacles, which can reduce the risk of weir overturning. The lowest value of the scour index was observed in the weir with an obstacle height of 0.04 meters, which is approximately 41.2% less than the weir without an obstacle.
