the impact resistance of new lightweight panel is studied. this panel consists of two thin metal layers bonded together by intermediate fiber/epoxy layers (mcm-sheets). to simulate a behavior of this kind of impact problem, explicit and implicit finite element software abaqus is used. in order to validate the finite element modeling, these results have been compared with experimental test resul...

Multi-spectral images provide powerful information to assess the effects of wildfires. Data can be processed, combined and analyzed in such a way that contribute suggest protocol action help recover devastated areas. The objective this paper is describe methods evaluate surface burned forest fire. Combining recorded by visible infrared sensors Landsat 8 satellite, we estimate temperature after ...

This paper focuses on the development of high temperatures in the cutting zone during high performance grinding. In order to identify the infl uence of grinding temperature on surface integrity, temperatures were measured in the workpiece surface layer under diff erent machining conditions. Beside this, under the same conditions, the surface layer properties of the workpiece material were deter...

This study examined the interrelationships between anxiety, depression and pain in burn injured patients. Seventy patients with severe burns were interviewed within two weeks of their burn trauma. The short form of McGill Pain Questionnaire and a visual analog scale were employed to measure the pain experienced at rest. Anxiety and depression levels were assessed with the Beck Depression Invent...

INTRODUCTION In-hospital hypernatremia develops usually iatrogenically from inadequate or inappropriate fluid prescription. In severely burned patient an extensive initial fluid resuscitation is necessary for burn shock survival. After recovering of cellular integrity the circulating volume has to be normalized. Hereby extensive water and electrolyte shifts can provoke hypernatremia. PURPOSE ...

BACKGROUND Military burns result from either combat or non-combat causes. We compared these etiologies from patients involved in ongoing conflicts to evaluate their impact and provide prevention recommendations. METHODS All military patients with significant burns treated at the United States Army Institute of Surgical Research from April 2003 to May 2005 were reviewed. Injuries were categori...

This study examines the epidemiology and mortality of patients admitted with burns to a Red Cross hospital in Afghanistan between 1996 and 2000. Three hundred and eighty-eight cases were reviewed retrospectively (57% male, 43% female) with a median age of 8 years. Sixty-three percent were children. Scalds (44%) were the commonest injury followed by fire (37%). The median total body surface area...

Background and Objectives: The burn injuries are one of the serious public health problems which impose a high economic burden on patients and their family, health sector and community in general. This study aimed to explore epidemiological data of burn patients and factors influencing costs of hospitalization due to burn injuries in Kermanshah Province situated in Western Iran.   Methods: Th...

Background Children are more likely to be burned than other age. The aim of this study was to determine the burn-related factors in children in Kermanshah province, Iran. Materials and Methods   In the present hospital based case-control study, 198 under 15 years age children who were burned ( from beginning of spring 2016 until the end of spring 2017), enrolled into the study as cases and 19...

introduction: a high grade burn is one of the most devastating injuries with several medical, social, economic, and psychological effects. these injuries are the most common cause of accidental deaths after traffic injuries in both the developed and developing countries. therefore this research was aimed to determine demographic characteristics of patients with burn injury admitted to the emerg...
