a rare case of non-puerperal uterine inversion caused by a large fundal leiomyoma in a 39-year nulliparous, infertile woman resulting in intractable hemorrhage was reported after a myomectomy. attempts to reduce the inversion vaginally by transecting the anterior and posterior cervix were unsuccessful and a laparotomy was performed. the inversion was not successfully corrected and hysterectomy ...

The crystalline basement of the Upper Rhine Graben is a major target for deep geothermal exploration due to generally high reservoir temperatures and increased radiogenic heat production. potential strongly dependent on lithology because mainly thermal but also hydraulic properties are affected by rock type. For this reason, so far most detailed 3D model in northern was developed based existing...

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) has found widespread application for the non-invasive characterization of the subsurface. Nevertheless, the interpretation of GPR measurements remains difficult in some cases, particularly when the subsurface contains thin horizontal layers with contrasting dielectric properties that might act as waveguides for electromagnetic wave propagation. GPR data affected b...

This paper is about the fitting or inversion of dynamic causal models (DCMs) of fMRI time series. It tries to establish the validity of stochastic DCMs that accommodate random fluctuations in hidden neuronal and physiological states. We compare and contrast deterministic and stochastic DCMs, which do and do not ignore random fluctuations or noise on hidden states. We then compare stochastic DCM...

the direct way to access the petrophysical property of hydrocarbon reservoir is based on well data but due to its high cost, the seismic data has been used to obtain these parameters. for this purpose, many different methods are available and each has its own advantages and limitations. from these methods the seismic inversion is the best tool to study the reservoir characterization. the outcom...

In order to quantify the reliability of NDE systems, large amounts of experiments are performed to develop a probability of detection (POD) curve for the system. These POD studies require a substantial amount of experimentation which can sometimes be cost prohibitive. To expedite the process of developing these curves, highly precise numerical models are used in conjunction with NDE sensors to ...
