    Today, with the increasing urban population, the change in the pattern of work and life, longer distance from natural origins as a platform to provide humans ‘space of mind and spirit in modern life, the need for recreation and leisure among urbanites has been risen and become one of their most important needs. Recreational activities that take place in areas outside of home; have more participatory and collective aspects that need space and special amenities. In this regard, public and collective spaces play significant roles in providing the security context and integrating such activities. And, it is better to design urban spaces with the aim of improving the lives of all people in the society. The coast of Bandar has great potentials (proximity to the sea and proximity to the city's main market) for cultural, social and economic development of the users of the area, but since its open spaces have not been organized well and lack of required facilities and equipment, much of it is not used as public spaces. When the uses are balanced and margins and beaches have natural attractions, the best option is to keep them pristine. The approach of indigenous  and historical architecture enables the designer to preserve nature of the area as well as fulfilling other objective such as beauty, tourism development, increasing social interaction. In this regard, the design and construction of a collective space for the public with the uses of recreational, sport, socializing with the indigenous architectural approach in Bandar Abbas give special effects and beauty to the city and increase social interactions among indigenous residents and will be a suitable place for all classes of people.In this article, it will be tried to examine the effects of establishing a suitable collective space in the area, other uses such as recreational, cultural, social, and business uses get involved in it and according to the dominant approach in theoretical basis and practical experiences, to revive the social role with indigenous and historical approach in this area through observation and to highlight its main function as a significant leisure space

    Architecture is the reflection of transferring the concepts and values which begin from its education and the result is what presents in universities. Proper education is the strategic action which increases the efficiency in the quality of learning in individuals. Nowadays, academic and vocational trainings are responsible in teaching architecture. Therefore, this is the task for the universities to train individuals with technical skills. The aim of good education of architecture is to recognize and identify the related action’s position. Nowadays, the last researches highlight that innovative process is the key factor for the sustainable development of society and the sustainability of architecture art is related to the proper and all-around education of architecture students in a convenient spaces. In this research, different models of training have been investigated and analyzed. In these models, training and designing the educational spaces with interaction were met; meanwhile of studying the existing literature and dependent data of the related researches in architecture training action, the researches and models have been integrated. Finally, by using the domestic and foreign experiences, new models in architecture training presented and assuming that offering these methods require proper educational places, all actions done to present the principles of designing an architecture college where those training methods could be implemented there and came to the result that creating suitable places as school or college of architecture and performing the proper education using the new methods of training, can develop creativity , increase the efficiency and promote mentality in the architecture students

    In this study, effect of immersion time on the electrochemical behaviour of AISI 321 stainless steel (AISI 321) in 0.1 M H 2SO 4 solution under open circuit potential (OCP) conditions was evaluated by potentiodynamic polarization, Mott–Schottky analysis and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Mott–Schottky analysis revealed that the passive films behave as n-type and p-type semiconductors at potentials below and above the flat band potential, respectively. Also, Mott–Schottky analysis indicated that the donor and acceptor densities are in the range 1021 cm-3 and increased with the immersion time. EIS results showed that the best equivalent circuit presents two time constants: The high-medium frequencies time constant can be correlated with the charge transfer process and the low frequencies time constant has been associated with the redox processes taking place in the surface film. According to this equivalent circuit, the polarization resistance (interfacial impedance) initially increases with the immersion time (1 to 12 h), and then it is observed to decreases. This variation is fully accordance with potentiodynamic polarization result

    Stress-Related Mucosal Disease in Critically Ill Patients

    Mucosal damage in Gastro Intestinal (GI) system happens due to stress and is more common in upper part of GI tract in patients admitted to Intensive Care Unit (ICU). This kind of injuries occurs in critically ill patients. Stress ulcer prophylaxis is necessary and increases the gastric (Power of Hydrogen) pH (more than 4) especially in stress exposure time. In this paper we provide an overview of stress ulcer and currently used preventive approaches for this complication in critically ill patients in ICU. Recent promotion in ICU care and increase in scientific knowledge about Stress-Related Mucosal Disease (SRMD) risk factors help us to reduce the number of patients develop stress ulcer. Prophylaxis can prevent significant bleeding and mortality

    Knowledge, Attitude, and Performance of Pregnant Women Regarding General Anesthesia Neurotoxicity in Children under Three: A Report from an Academic Hospital

    BackgroundRecently, concerns about general anesthesia (GA)-related neurotoxicity has been growing in societies. Parents' information obviously plays an important role to make right decision for elective surgeries on children aged under three years old.ObjectivesThe aim of this survey was to evaluate the knowledge, attitude, and performance of pregnant women about the GA-related neurotoxicity in children aged under three years old.MethodsThis descriptive study was conducted at Alzahra Teaching Hospital in Guilan, Iran, during 2020. The eligible pregnant women admitted to this center were interviewed, and a questionnaire containing 10 items was filled out by the responsible resident of anesthesiology.ResultsIn this research, a total of 361 pregnant women were enrolled and underwent a face-to-face interview. The mean age of the participants was 31.4 ± 7 years, 64.5% were living in urban areas, 82.5% were housewives, and 65.7% were multipara. Moreover, 83.7% of participants believed that receiving information in this regard was crucial, and 81.7% preferred physicians as the source of information. Only 8% of mothers had received information regarding the issue. A significant correlation was observed between the habitat, employment, the level of education, knowledge, and attitude status, and the source of receiving information.ConclusionsAccording to our results, the knowledge, attitude, and performance of pregnant women were not optimal and needed to be improved through practical strategies
