The aim of this study was to describe parasites of three lynx living in an enclosure of Western Pomeranian Nature Society in Jablonowo. During analysis of 3 gram faecal samples eggs of Toxascaris leonina, Toxocara cati, Ancylostoma sp. and oocysts of Cystoisospora felis were found. To our knowledge this is the first report of C. felis infection in lynx from Poland. Presented research show that ...

Vibrating machinery such as pumps, generators and compressors normally use passive insulation materials to reduce sound radiation. This paper provides a practical examination of possible solutions to active control of machine enclosures that reduces the radiated sound intensity from the enclosure to the environment. The results show that a combination of simple sky-hook type feedback controller...

AIM To evaluate the anatomical features of C-shaped canal systems in Chinese mandibular second molars by cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). METHODOLOGY A total of 608 patients of Chinese descent with healthy, well-developed mandibular second molars were enrolled. These patients were referred to the West China Hospital of Stomatology and required radiographic examination by CBCT as part of ...

Robot Navigation in unknown and very cluttered environments constitutes one of the key challenges in unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) applications. Navigational limit cycles can occur when navigating (UGVs) using behavior-based or other reactive algorithms. Limit cycles occur when the robot is navigating towards the goal but enters an enclosure that has its opening in a direction opposite to the g...

INCE Kerridge's incisive intervention into the field of agrarian history in his article of 1955 regarding the enclosure movement in the Tudor and early-Stuart period, anyone who ventures there must preface their remarks by acknowledgement of the force of Kerridge's argument. 1 As a result, little confidence may be retained in the basis of analysis of enclosure in that period the statistics whic...

The natural convection heat transfer of horizontal rectangle enclosures with different aspect ratios (A = 2:1 and A = 4:1) filled with Ag-Ga nanofluid (different nanoparticle volume fractions φ = 0.01, φ = 0.03, φ = 0.05 and radiuses r = 20 nm, r = 40 nm, r = 80 nm) at different Rayleigh numbers (Ra = 1 × 103 and Ra = 1 × 105) is investigated by a two-phase lattice Boltzmann model. It is found ...

introduction: the aim of this study was to evaluate the root canal morphology of mandibular first and second molars using cone-beam computed tomography (cbct) in northern iranian population and also to indicate the thinnest area around root canals. methods and materials: we evaluated cbct images of 154 first molars and 147 second molars. by evaluating three axial, sagittal and coronal planes of...

Livestock grazing is one of the most important kinds of land usage that has a high potential to decrease or increase carbon storage in rangeland ecosystem. This research was investigated the effects of enclosure on soil carbon storage in a rangeland with dominant plants of Artemisia aucheri. Hence, two rangelands of enclosure (Shahtappeh-Chah Mahmood) and no enclosure (Chiro) were chosen in Sem...
