SUMMARY This Report considers theoretically and experimentally some of the problems associated with the flexure of two unequal cylindrical shells Joined by a conical frustum. Particular attention is given to the determination of the overall flexursl stiffness of the conical frustum and to structural design considerations associated with the provision of a separation capability in the frustum. T...

A new map and cross sections of the Khula Kangri and Kankar Pünzum-Monlakarchung High Himalayan ranges in the Tibet-Bhutan frontier area are presented from integration of unpublished mapping from the summit section of Khula Kangri and new remote sensing together with previous mapping. The ranges define an orographic bifurcation of the High Himalaya that results in a north-south repetition of th...

INTRODUCTION Several factors are used to stratify the probability of polyp recurrence. However, there are no studies correlating the location of the initial polyps and the recurrent ones. The aim of this study was to verify whether the polyp location at the surveillance colonoscopy was correlated with the location of the previously excised polyps at the baseline colonoscopy. METHODS A retrosp...
