Background. The double haul is a unique feature of single-handed fly casting and is used in both fly fishing and fly casting competition. The movement behaviour during the double haul has not been investigated in previous research. Objectives. Describe the coordination of the rod and line hauling movements during distance fly casting. Methods. Elite fly casters performed distance castin...

The Chinese government has downgraded use of the Mongol language in schools Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, and is now using its brand state environmentalism to rein pastoralists, blaming them for degradation grasslands. By targeting land use, two pillars autonomy, shown that it prepared override very limited forms autonomy still enjoyed by China’s minority nationalities. leaders are respondi...

Feeding of the nickel-based alloys CZ-100, M-35-1, and CW-12MW, as well as of the austenitic stainless steel CN-7M, is investigated, using a combination of casting experiments and simulation. Casting trials are performed at five foundries, to produce a total of 55 plates of varying lengths and radiographic soundness levels. In order to develop the property databases necessary to simulate the ca...

BACKGROUND The thermal expansion of the investment can be restricted by the metal casting ring because the thermal expansion of the ring is less than that of the investment. The ringless casting procedure is in use in clinical dentistry, though there is little scientific data to support its use in fixed partial dentures. In this study, marginal discrepancy of castings produced with the ringless...

In this paper, we propose a recursive Taylor method for ray-casting algebraic surfaces. The performance of this approach is compared with four other candidate approaches to raycasting: using interval arithmetic on the power form, using interval arithmetic on centered forms, using affine arithmetic, and using modified affine arithmetic. Test results show that the recursive Taylor method compares...

In this paper we present visualization approaches for HARDI-based neuronal pathway representations using fiber encompassing hulls. We introduce novel bundle visualization techniques to indicate characteristics, such as information about tract integrity and multiple intra-voxel diffusion orientations. To accomplish this task, we developed an intra-bundle raycasting approach and use color mapping...

This paper presents a visibility analysis tool for 3D urban environments and its possible applications for urban design practice. Literature exists for performing visibility analysis using various methods and techniques, however, tools that result from such research are generally not suitable for use by designers in practice. Our visibility analysis tool resides in Grasshopper, Rhino. It uses a...

BACKGROUND Current trends in the treatment of idiopathic clubfoot have shifted from extensive surgical release to more conservative techniques. The purpose of the present study was to prospectively compare the results of the Ponseti method with those of surgical releases for the correction of clubfoot deformity. METHODS We prospectively compared patients who had idiopathic clubfoot deformitie...

heat transfer mechanisms and the solidification process are simulated for a continuous casting machine and the geometric shape of the liquid pool is predicted considering different conditions. a heat transfer and solidification model is described for the continuous casting of steel slabs. the model has been established on the basis of the technical conditions of the slab caster in the continuou...
