A nuclear analysis was performed for an alternate ITER first wall attachment scheme to estimate the nuclear heating in critical components. With a variety of components near the first wall without direct cooling, there is concern that the operating temperatures will be above engineering limits. Using DAG-MCNP5, a 1-D analysis framework was used to estimate the nuclear heating in a detailed 3-D ...

Submitted for the MAR08 Meeting of The American Physical Society Low temperature growth of boron nitride nanotubes1 CHEE HUEI LEE, MING XIE, JIESHENG WANG, YOKE KHIN YAP — Boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) are promising nanostuctures that will complement the applications of carbon nanotubes in various emerging areas. However, the synthesis of BNNTs is still challenging and required high growth te...

This paper presents a design improvisation of a flux pump-integrated 10 kW high-temperature superconducting (HTS) proof of concept generator for reduced harmonic distortion. To carry out the design improvisation, a finite element analysis (FEA) model of the 10 kW HTS generator is developed, and time-stepped magnetic transient simulations are conducted on the 2D model. The effects of stator yoke...

Industries are basically meant for Production of useful goods and services at low production cost, machinery cost and low inventory cost. Today in this world every task have been made quicker and fast due to technology advancement but this advancement also demands huge investm...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the association between thorax deformities, panic disorder, and joint hypermobility METHODS The study includes 52 males diagnosed with thorax deformity, and 40 healthy male controls without thorax deformity, in Tatvan Bitlis and Isparta, Turkey. The study was carried out from 2004 to 2006. The teleradiographic and thoracic lateral images of the subjects were evaluated to...

objectives: skeletal-muscular disorders affect the biomechanics of the human body, especially the lower extremity, with a negative effect on the biomechanics of exercise. the main aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of fatigue on the kinematic variables of knee joints during countermovement jumps in female students of physical education with valgus knee deformity.  methods: fifteen sub...

Pectus excavatum is the most common thoracic deformity, and there are many surgical methods used in clinic. Almost all previous operations were limited to one kind of procedure. The completion operation will directly affect effect treatment pectus excavatum. After long-term clinical practice, we found that can be treated with multiple at same time. use these completely correct deformity achieve...

One of the main challenges in developing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems is to create a static coil that needs to generate magnetic field density along with the characteristics of optimal homogeneity and magnitude size. To do this, two N42 Block PMs are used and the iron core is designed and optimized in accordance with the dimensions of PM pieces using ANSYS Maxwell software. Then, al...

congenital radial club hand is an intercalary or terminal deficiency characterized by radial deviation of the hand, marked shortening of the forearm, and generalized underdevelopment of the extremity. we performed centralization of the ulna in 12 forearms of 10 patients with severe congenital radial club hands. the mean follow up was 42 months after operation (24 to 68 months). the mean age at ...

Ross-Hime Designs, Inc. presents the results of its research and development of “Low Cost Light-Weight Seeker Gimbals.” The Super Seeker, a patent-pending gimbal design, offers a swiveling yoke design lower in cost than current gimbal designs and weighing significantly less than traditional gimbal systems while enabling a doubling of the sensor’s surface area. The swiveling yoke design has buil...
