In this paper, the dynamic simulation for a high pressure regulator is performed to obtain the regulator behavior. To analyze the regulator performance, the equation of motion for inner parts, the continuity equation for diverse chambers and the equation for mass flow rate were derived. Because of nonlinearity and coupling, these equations are solved using numerical methods and the results are ...

in saturated soils, heating induces thermal expansion of both grains and the pore fluid. lower thermal expansion coefficient of aggregates results in the increase of pore pressure and reduction of the effective stress besides subsequent volume changes due to the dissipation of pore pressure and heat transfer. dissipation of thermally induced pore pressure with time is a coupled thermo-hydro-mec...

abstract background: we aimed to evaluate an approach to induced abortions during early pregnancies that controls the suction pressure and restricts the duration of the procedure. methods: three hundred patients programmed for induced early pregnancy abortions, hospitalized in the shandong provincial maternity & child care hospital from october 2013 to october 2015, were enrolled. patients were...

the purpose of this study was to determine and compare blood lactate, heart rate and blood pressure responses in arm and leg exercises and to determine the relationship between these variables and fatigue time during these two modes of exercises. 8 young professional karate players (mean age 18.90±2.20) volunteered to participate in this study. the subjects completed two ergometers: arm and leg...

modification of natural polymers like protein by graft co-polymerization is an important method to incorporate the desired properties into the backbone. soy protein concentrate (spc) was grafted with ethylmethacrylate (ema) using ascorbic acid /potassium persulphate as redox initiator system under pressure. different reaction parameters such as reaction time, reaction pressure, solvent amount, ...

Among the many force s to which hydraulic structures are exposed to, the forces induced by cavitation incident are of typical hydrodynamic unknown forces. The aim of this study is to define these forces as coupled fluid-structure interaction under two dynamic effects. The first dynamic effect which incorporates facilities for dealing with cavitation fluid is based on the appearance and bursting...

Background: Weaning from mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit is an important step in the treatment process. More patients in less than 6 hours after cardiac surgery can be separated from mechanical ventilation and extubated. However, 20-40% of patients after cardiac surgery, due to dysfunctional ventilator weaning response (DVWR), still remain under mechanical ventilation. Therefo...
