In this paper, exact solution for two-plane transverse vibration analysis of axial-loaded multi-step Timoshenko rotor carrying concentrated masses is presented. Each attached element is considered to have both translational and rotational inertia. Forward and backward frequencies and corresponding modes are obtained using transfer matrix method (TMM). The effect of the angular velocity of spin,...

PURPOSE The aim of the study was to analyze the effects of uneventful phacoemulsification surgery on choroidal thickness (CT) using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). METHODS In this prospective study, 38 eyes of 38 patients having phacoemulsification surgery were included. All patients underwent detailed ophthalmologic examination, including preoperative axial length (AXL...

The use of timber in structures like guard-rail systems requires knowledge about the behaviour at high loading rates. The present study aims at presenting a state of art report with respect to the impact bending strength of timber and to some extent to the behaviour of timber joints at high loading rates. The literature review indicates a difference in the experimental results and the conclusio...

X-ray evaluation of rheumatoid joints is relatively inexpensive, is widely available and has standardised methods for interpretation. It also has limitations, including the inability to reliably determine structural change in less than 6-12 months, the need for experienced readers to interpret images and the limited acceptance of this technique in routine clinical practice. High-frequency ultra...

background: abnormal angulation of the lunate can be an indication of intercarpal pathology. on magnetic resonance images (mris) the lunate often looks dorsally angulated, even in healthy wrists. the tilt on individual slices can also be different and might be misinterpreted as pathological, contributing to inaccurate diagnoses and unnecessary surgery. the primary aim of this study was to deter...

to examine the effect of mixing graminicide herbicides with liquid fertilizer in gorgan region, an experiment was conducted as factorial arranged in complete randomized block design (rcbd) with three replications at the research farm of islamic azad university of gorgan. the first factor was using topic, pumasuper and axial herbicides with the amounts of 0.8, 1, and 0.5 l/ha-1, respectively. th...
