2-4 cases with primary failure of eruption. It consists of extrusion of maxillary posterior teeth but the resisting factors for extrusion such as forces exerted by tongue, orbicularis oris muscle complex and periodontal ligament may pose a high potential for relapse. The more posterior and more number of posterior teeth involved in open bite, poorer is the prognosis for orthodontic treatment. I...

Sodium circulation in Vibrio parahaemolyticus was investigated. We observed respiration-driven Na+ extrusion from cells by using a Na+ electrode. The Na+ extrusion was insensitive to a proton conductor, carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone, and sensitive to a respiratory inhibitor, CN-. These results support the idea of the existence of a respiratory Na+ pump in V. parahaemolyticus. The res...

Steady-state and time-dependent Hadley circulations are investigated with an idealized dry GCM, in which thermal forcing is represented as relaxation of temperatures toward a radiative-equilibrium state. The latitude f0 of maximum radiative-equilibrium temperature is progressively displaced off the equator or varied in time to study how the Hadley circulation responds to seasonally varying forc...

Al-SiC composites are among the most demanding metal matrix composites due to their excellent strength, good ductility, good corrosion resistance, low coefficient of thermal expansion and reasonable price. Manufacturing of cast metal matrix composites usually involves some problems such as inhomogeneous distribution of the particles due to poor wetability of ceramics to molten alloys, porosity ...

A study of the three-dimensional axisymmetry-breaking instability of an axisymmetric convective #ow associated with crystal growth from bulk of melt is presented. Convection in a vertical cylinder with a parabolic temperature pro"le on the sidewall is considered as a representative model. The main objective is the calculation of critical parameters corresponding to a transition from the steady ...

Profile extrusion is a production technique to make polymer profiles and hollow tubes. At certain distance after the die exit extrudate guided into cooling chamber, where cooled extensively set part dimensions. Uniform in chamber required avoid warpage twisting of due differential shrinkage. The effect on shape residual stresses final product are numerically studied. Two different cases studied...

UNLABELLED Grape juice processing by-products, grape seed and pomace are a rich source of procyanidins, compounds that may afford protection against chronic disease. This study was undertaken to identify optimal extrusion conditions to enhance the contents of monomers and dimers at the expense of large molecular weight procyanidin oligomers and polymers in grape seed and pomace. Extrusion varia...

BACKGROUND A high degree of meniscal body extrusion on knee magnetic resonance imaging has been shown to be strongly associated with development of knee osteoarthritis. However, very little is known about meniscal position in the asymptomatic knee and its natural history. Hence our objective was to study meniscal body position and its change over 4 years in asymptomatic adults. METHODS Cohort...
