2014 A method is suggested for an accurate experimental measurement of the topography of the surface thermoelastic deformations in solids, induced by a point focused CW laser beam. An approximate theory for the surface deformation of anisotropic materials is obtained. Different cuts of quartz and glass samples have been examined. Revue Phys. Appl. 19 (1984) 631-634 AOÛT 1984, PAGE Classificatio...

منشأ تعهد ممکن است قانون یا قرارداد باشد. آن بخش از تعهدات مندرج در قرارداد که به صورت صریح یا ضمنی، مورد توافق طرفین قرار گرفته، «تعهد اصلی قراردادی» نامیده می­شود. اما آن دسته از تعهداتی که به صراحت یا به صورت ضمنی، ناشی از ارادۀ متعاقدین نمی­باشد، بلکه به حکم قانون و به تبع قرارداد، لازم لاجراء می­گردد «تعهد تبعی قراردادی» نامیده می­شود. در مادۀ 220 (ق.م) قانونگذار به الزام آور بودن تعهدات ت...

HYPOTHESIS The status of the sentinel node (SN) confers important prognostic information for patients with thin melanoma. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PATIENTS We queried our melanoma database to identify patients undergoing sentinel lymph node biopsy for thin (< or =1.00-mm) cutaneous melanoma at a tertiary care cancer institute. Slides of tumor-positive SNs were reviewed by a melanoma pathologist t...

PURPOSE To evaluate the effectiveness of a staged ultrasonography (US) and computed tomography (CT) imaging protocol for the accurate diagnosis of suspected appendicitis in children and the opportunity for reducing the number of CT examinations and associated radiation exposure. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study was compliant with HIPAA, and a waiver of informed consent was appro...

Background. Microarray technology is so expensive and powerful that it is essential to extract maximum value from microarray data. Our tools allow researchers to test and formulate from a hypothesis to entire models. Results. The objective of the NCRPCOPGene is to study the relationships among gene expressions under different conditions, to classify these conditions, and to study their effect o...
