We describe a case of perichondritis by Pseudomona aeruginosa after piercing of the right posterior third of the ear pinna cartilage (high ear piercing) in an otherwise healthy Caucasian adolescent female of 16 years old at a local shop. Based on the tissue sample culture, she was successfully treated with ceftriaxone after a non-respondent first treatment, minimizing the destruction of the ear...

WMSSM = h u ijQi ·HiUj + hijQi ·HdD̄j + hijLi ·HdĒj + μHu ·Hd. (1) (1) has been constructed so as to conserve R-parity (even for particles, odd for sparticles) Rp ≡ (−1), B, L and s being baryon no., lepton no. and spin. This is equivalent to the conservation of matter parity which transforms the superfields as (Li, Ēi, Qi, Ūi, D̄i) → −(Li, Ēi, Qi, Ūi, D̄i), (Hu, Hd, Vγ, VZ , V + W , V − W ) → (Hu...

OpenProp is an open-source code suite that can be used for the design, analysis, and fabrication of optimized propellers and horizontal-axis turbines. The numerical model is based on propeller lifting line theory, which is used in parametric design codes employed by the U.S. Navy as well as commercial designers. OpenProp is written in Matlab M-code, which is widely used in academia and industry...

The presence of broken ice in the flow field around a propeller causes severe blade erosion, shafting, and hull vibration. This study investigates performance ship sailing polar regions under propeller–ice non-contact condition. To this end, we construct test platform for propeller-induced excitation force due to blockage large circulating water channel. hydrodynamic load propeller, cavitation ...

Introduction: Fast Spin Echo (FSE) could suffer from the non-CPMG condition that results in destructive echo interference, unstable echo train and signal cancellation. Diffusion-weighted (DW) PROPELLER [1], an FSE-based sequence, mitigates the non-CPMG issue by XY phase cycling [1] combined with split-blade acquisition [2]. However, XY phase cycling requires refocus flip angle be close to 180° ...

BACKGROUND/AIM Since their introduction in 1991, propeller flaps are increasingly used as a surgical approach to loss of substance. The aim of this study was to evaluate the indications and to verify the outcomes and the complication rates using this reconstructing technique through a literature review. MATERIALS AND METHODS A search on PubMed was performed using "propeller flap", "fasciocuta...

This paper describes a computational procedure which is being developed for the practical analysis of propeller sheet cavitation and propeller-ship interaction including hull pressure fluctuations. The computational procedure consists of three different, coupled methods: (i) a RANS method for the analysis of the viscous flow around the ship hull and the determination of the velocity field in th...

Given a finite family F of convex sets in R, we say that F has the (p, q)r property if for any p convex sets in F there are at least r q-tuples that have non empty intersection. The piercing number of F is the minimum number of points we need to intersect all the sets in F . In this paper we willl find some bounds for the piercing number of families of convex sets with (p, q)r properties.

This paper is discussing the potential consequences that may arise by the implementation of piercing in the oral cavity and is also categorizing the consequences according to their extent and severity. Furthermore, this paper is reviewing some possible oral hygiene methods that can prove to be auxiliary in decreasing the potential complications arising from oral piercing. This literature review...

Perichondritis is a slow evolving infection, located on the ear cartilage. They result from lacerations, blunt trauma, surgeries and other affections. Ear piercing induced pinna perichondritis is a frequent affection among the young population. The most commonly found etiologic agent is Pseudomonas aeruginosa and its inoculation caused by pinna cartilage and pericondrium exposure during or afte...
