objective(s): variation in microsatellite sequences that are dispersed in the genome has been linked to a deficiency in cellular mismatch repair system and defects in several genes of this system are involved in carcinogenesis. our aim in this study was to illustrate microsatellite dna alteration in esophageal cancer. materials and methods: dna was extracted from formalin fixed paraffin embedde...

both midazolam and thiopental sodium are being used as induction agents and for maintenance of anesthesia. in contrast to other benzodiazepines such as diazepam, midazolam has a rapid onset of action and fast distribution and causes few cardiovascular or respiratory effects. being water soluble, midazolam is also associated with a low incidence of venous irritation. the purpose of this study wa...

in the current study the effect of casimir force and squeezed film damping on the pull-in instability and dynamic behavior of electrostatically actuated nano and micro electromechanical systems is investigated separately. linear elastic membrane theory is used to model the static and dynamic behavior of system for strip, annular and disk geometries. squeezed film damping effect is modeled using...

Asymptotically exact and nonlocal third order nonlinear evolution equations are derivedfor two counterpropagating surface capillary gravity wave packets in deep water in thepresence of wind flowing over water.From these evolution equations stability analysis ismade for a uniform standing surface capillary gravity wave trains for longitudinal perturbation. Instability condition is obtained and g...

An Extremely rare case of periscaphoid and perilunate dislocation of the wrist is reported. The reported case is a young man with trauma following a motor cycle falling down. At first referral closed reduction and six weeks of long arm cast had been performed. The patient reffered to our hospital because of painful and limited range of motion. He underwent open reduction and internal fixation w...

  Propagation of dust ion acoustic waves in plasmas composed of nonthermal distributed electrons and stationary dust particles is investigated. Nonlinear Schrdinger equation is derived to describe small amplitude waves, using the reduction perturbation technique. Modulation instability of dust ion acoustic waves is analysed for this system. Parametric investigation indicates that growth rate of...

An unsteady two-dimensional finite-volume solver was developed based on Van Leer’s flux splitting algorithm in conjunction with “Monotonic Upstream Scheme for Conservation Laws (MUSCL)” limiters to improve the order of accuracy and the two-layer Baldwin-Lomax turbulence model was also implemented. Two test cases were prepared to validate the solver. The computed results were compared with the e...

The main goal of this research is to analyse the effect of angular velocity on stability and vibration of a simply supported Rayleigh rotating shaft. To this end, non-dimensional kinetic and potential energies are written while lateral vibration is considered. Finite element method is employed to discrete the formulations and Linear method is applied to analyse instability threshold of a rotati...

Freezing colloidal suspensions widely exists in nature and industry. Interface instability has attracted much attention for the understandings of the pattern formation in freezing colloidal suspensions. However, the interface instability modes, the origin of the ice banding or ice lamellae, are still unclear. In-situ experimental observation of the onset of interface instability remains absent ...
