Local Cooling in Myasthenia

Band-Engineered Local Cooling in Nanoscale Junctions

The stability and performance of nanoscale junctions are closely related to the local effective temperature. The local effective temperature is mainly caused by the competition between heating and cooling processes in inelastic electron-phonon scat- tering. Local cooling occurs when the rate of energy in cooling exceeds that in heating. Previous research has been done using either specific pote...

Thymectomy in Patients with Myasthenia Gravis

A case of myasthenia gravis in a 15 years old girl is pre·sented. The disease was present for 5 years before thymectomy was performed. Indications for thymectomy, preoperative pre­paration, anesthetic and surgical management is -discussed. 

Free convection in a 3D chamber with local cooling and heating

This paper modeled heating air of a room through examining free convection in a 3D chamber. The chamber had cold and hot sources with Tc and Th temperatures, respectively. Its other walls were adiabatic. This study aimed at predicting effect of temperature difference, displacement of hot and cold sources and their aspect ratio on flow field, temperature and heat transfer rate. To conduct the st...

Design and construction of evaporative local cooling coatings and evaluate their efficiency in improving some perceptual indicators in laboratory conditions

Introduction: One way to reduce the level of heat strain is to use personal evaporative cooling coats. such as the wrist, ankle, head and neck. The purpose of this study is to design, construct, and determine the cooling power of local cooling coatings and evaluate their efficiency in improving perceptual indicators in the laboratory. Materials and Methods: Initially, the design and constructio...
