OLSON, ROBERT M., AND DAVID K. SHELTON, JR. A nondestructive technique to measure wall displacement in the thoracic aorta. J. Appl. Physiol. 32(l): 147-151. 1972.-This paper presents a simple, highly precise, nonsurgical technique to follow aortic wall motion and consequently monitor pulsatile changes in thoracic aortic diameter. The diameter contours which result can be used in much the same w...

background and aims: one of the most common approach to understanding spatial and temporal trends of event data is to break it up into a series of time snapshots. therefore space-time cube method applied in order to portray the likely trend in occurrence of the pulmonary tuberculosis (tb) cases. methods: in this study, information of all patients with pulmonary tb recorded in surveillance syste...

Improving rates of hand hygiene compliance (HHC) has been shown to reduce nosocomial disease. We compared the HHC for a traditional wall-mounted unit and a novel sanitizer-dispensing door handle device in a hospital inpatient ultrasound area. HHC increased 24.5%-77.1% (P < .001) for the exam room with the sanitizer-dispensing door handle, whereas it remained unchanged for the other rooms. Techn...

This study topologically describes near-wall flows around a surface-mounted cylinder at high Reynolds number ( $Re$ ) of $5\times 10^4$ and in very thick boundary layer, which were partially measured or technically approximated from the literature. For complete rational flow construction, we use high-resolution simulations critical-point theory. The large-scale near-wake vortex is composed two ...

A characteristic of granulated LTA and SOD zeolites is given. It was determined that zeolite particles have a cube shape with size ~2 μm; an irregular 0.5–1 μm. The dimension the coherent scattering region calculated to be 760 nm for 453 SOD. specific surface area 115 m2·g–1 141 m2·g–1. Static tests showed maximum quantity absorbed water vapor ~30 wt.%, ~20 wt.%. found provide adsorption from g...

The present paper deals with the force experienced by a wall overflowed by a granular avalanche. First, we briefly report laboratory tests on dry granular avalanches overflowing a wall down a rough channel. In the first step, the thickness and velocity of the control flows without a wall are measured. In the second step, a wall is mounted to obstruct the flow and the normal force experienced by...

Cube Attack is a successful case of Algebraic Attack. Cube Attack consists of two phases, linear equation extraction and solving the extracted equation system. Due to the high complexity of equation extraction phase in finding linear equations, we can extract nonlinear ones that could be approximated to linear equations with high probability. The probabilistic equations could be considered as l...

The article presents the possibility of using a mass collector-storage wall (CSW), integrated into structure building with light skeleton structure. considered system is proposal for an energy-saving solution that can be used in buildings various utility purposes. results experimental tests mounted space southern facade period one year, as well numerical simulation. In summer, influence use hea...

Algorithms for self-calibrating cameras whose changes in calibration parameters are confined to rotation and zooming are useful since many real-world imaging situations do not permit translations — consider for instance cameras mounted on tripods and deskor wall-mounted active heads. In practice, however, the assumption of pure rotation is often violated because the optic centre of the camera a...

In our previous studies into web design, we found that pens, paper, walls, and tables were often used for explaining, developing, and communicating ideas during the early phases of design. These wall-scale paper-based design practices inspired The Designers’ Outpost, a tangible user interface that combines the affordances of paper and large physical workspaces with the advantages of electronic ...
