this study is an attempt to develop an integrated methodology to predict the impact of the caspian sea on flooding using geographic information systems (gis) and hydrodynamic modeling. a rise in the sea level might lead to major flooding events, and have a severe impact on the spatial development of cities and regions. the feasibility of simulating a flood event along a drain channel is evaluat...

Two boundary value problems are solved for potential steady-state 2D Darcian seepage flows towards a line sink in homogeneous isotropic soil from ponded land surface, which is not flat but profiled. The aim of this shaping ‘uniformisation’ the velocity and travel time between surface horizontal drain modelled by sink. complex domain half-strip, mapped onto reference plane. Either magnitude or v...

In this study, the comparison of dry gas injection for vertical and horizontal production well scenarios are investigated by means conducting a reservoir simulation study tight condensate reservoir. order to conduct pattern has been defined. The selected is 420x420 m in areal extend 50 thickness. All necessary rock properties, fluid specifications together with compositions have determined cons...

STUDY DESIGN Retrospective clinical study. PURPOSE To assess the diagnostic value of suction drain tip culture in patients undergoing primary posterior spine surgery. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE To date, the diagnostic value of suction drain tip culture for predicting surgical site infection (SSI) has not been firmly established in orthopedic or spinal surgery. METHODS In total, 133 patients w...

The CNS has long been considered an immune-privileged site as tissues grafted into the CNS are not rejected as they are in other tissues (Medawar, 1948; Billingham and Boswell, 1953; Barker and Billingham, 1977). An avalanche of evidence now suggests that this privilege is not absolute, as robust immune responses can occur in the CNS during infections and autoimmune diseases such as multiple sc...

UNLABELLED BACKGROUND The emigration of skilled nurses from the Philippines is an ongoing phenomenon that has impacted the quality and quantity of the nursing workforce, while strengthening the domestic economy through remittances. This study examines how the development of brain drain-responsive policies is driven by the effects of nurse migration and how such efforts aim to achieve mind-sh...

We investigated the frequency dependences of Y22 of FDSOI MOSFETs, in which the drain current response delay is observed for the first time. Short channel FD-SOI devices operating in linear region show significant drain current response delay. It is confirmed that FD-SOI MOSFET’s RF behavior can be well reproduced with the proposed model including the drain current response delay.

Although knee joint arthroscopy is one of the most frequently performed surgical procedures worldwide, there is no consensus on how to apply a drain in the joint if it is decided to use one. Therefore we describe a simple technique to safely apply a drain intra-articularly under full arthroscopic control, avoiding placement of the drain through the arthroscopic portal.

Opportunity is the driving force of migration. Unsatisfied demands for higher education and skills, which have been created by the knowledge-based global economy, have generated unprecedented opportunities in knowledge-intensive service industries. These multi-trillion dollar industries include information, communication, finance, business, education and health. The leading industrialized natio...
