Wave Propagation Approach to Fluid Filled Submerged Visco-Elastic Finite Cylindrical Shells
Multi-layer orthotropic finite cylindrical shells with a viscoelastic core in contact with fluids are gaining increasing importance in engineering. Vibrational control of these structures is essential at higher modes. In this study, an extended version of the wave propagation approach using first-order shear deformation theory of shell motion is employed to examine the free vibration of damped ...
متن کاملSymptomatic therapy in multiple sclerosis: the role of cannabinoids in treating spasticity.
A large proportion of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) have spasticity, which has a marked impact on their quality of life. Anecdotal evidence suggests a beneficial effect of cannabis on spasticity as well as pain. Recently, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies have confirmed the clinical efficacy of cannabinoids for the treatment of spasticity in patients with MS. Based on...
متن کاملEmerging Psychedelics: A Systematic Review of Synthetic Cannabinoids
Objective: In recent years, the advent of synthetic cannabinoids, deceptive advertising and cyber sales has led young people to use them. The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) has identified the prevalence of using these compounds as a major public health challenge. The aim of the present study was to systematically review synthetic cannabinoids. Method: This study was a descript...
متن کاملRepeated administration of cannabinoid receptor agonist and antagonist impairs short and long term plasticity of rat’s dentate gyrus in vivo
Introduction: The effects of cannabinoids (CBs) on synaptic plasticity of hippocampal dentate gyrus neurons have been shown in numerous studies. However, the effect of repeated exposure to cannabinoids on hippocampal function is not fully understood. In this study, using field potential recording, we investigated the effect of repeated administration of the nonselective CB receptor agonist WIN5...
متن کاملبررسی خواص اپتیکی لایههای نازک مس بر زیرلایه شیشه با روش کرایمرز کرونیگ
Different thicknesses of 99.97% Cu are deposited on glass substrate by thermal evaporation method at the rate of 2A˚/sec. Kramers-Kronig method is used for the analysis of the reflectivity constant in the range of 200nm<λ2eV, by increasing the thickness, the imaginary part of refraction index, k, increases and real part, n, decreases. At higher energies, both constants reach the asymptotic valu...
