purpose: to evaluate visual outcomes and intraocular pressure (iop) after single-site phacotrabeculectomy with mitomycin c in patients with senile cataract and primary open angle glaucoma (poag), pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (pxg), or chronic angle closure glaucoma (cacg). methods: in this retrospective study, patients older than 50 years who had significant cataracts (bcva £ 20/60) and uncontrol...

High-frequency signal injection sensorless algorithms are widely studied and used for rotor angle estimation in PMSM at low speed or standstill. One of the main drawbacks such methods is acoustic noise connected to voltage injection. In order minimize this problem, it advisable increase frequency injected signal. Thus, many studies focus on square-wave switching frequency, which maximum theoret...

Substorms generally inject tens to hundreds of keV electrons, but intense substorm electric fields have been shown to inject MeV electrons as well. An intriguing question is whether such MeVelectron injections can populate the outer radiation belt. Here we present observations of a substorm injection of MeV electrons into the inner magnetosphere. In the premidnight sector at L ∼ 5.5, Van Allen ...

We investigate the electron injection from a terrylene-based chromophore to the TiO2 semiconductor bridged by a recently proposed phenyl-amide-phenyl molecular rectifier. The mechanism of electron transfer is studied by means of quantum dynamics simulations using an extended Hückel Hamiltonian. It is found that the inclusion of the nuclear motion is necessary to observe the photoinduced electro...

A Magneto Plasma Sail (MPS) produces a propulsive force by the interaction between the solar wind and an artificial magnetic field inflated by a plasma jet injection. Using a 2D hybrid PIC simulation code, the parametric study of magnetic inflation by the plasma jet injection is performed under different realistic parameters in terms of plasma material (Ar/Xe) and injection direction. We evalua...

Electron injection process at high Mach number collisionless quasi-perpendicular shock waves is investigated by means of one-dimensional electromagnetic particle-in-cell simulations. We find that energetic electrons are generated through the following two steps : (1) electrons are accelerated nearly perpendicular to the local magnetic field by shock surfing acceleration at the leading edge of t...

A 50-year-old female presented with bilateral retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and acute angle closure (AAC) with fixed mid-dilated pupil and high intraocular pressure (IOP) in the left eye following left side periorbital botulinum toxin A injection for blepharospasm. Glaucomatous optic neuropathy and retinal nerve fiber layer defect were observed in the affected eye using optical coherence tomography...

Investigations are carried out to evaluate the performance of a low heat rejection (LHR) diesel engine consisting of air gap insulated piston with 3mm air gap, with superni 2/4(an alloy of nickel) crown and air gap insulated liner with superni insert with different operating conditions of crude pongamia oil (CPO) with varied injection pressure and injection timing. Performance parameters of are...

PURPOSE This study used ultrasonography (US) to investigate the architectural changes in gastrocnemius muscles (GCM) after botulinum toxin injection (BoNT-A) in children with cerebral palsy (CP). MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirteen children with CP who received a BoNT-A injection into their GCM to treat equinus were recruited (9 males and 4 females). Architectural changes in both the medial and la...
