background: many types of single-use blades are manufactured with different designs and materials. there have been several reports of difficulties in obtaining a view of the glottis with single-use laryngoscopes. the purpose of this prospective study was to compare the quickness and the success rate of endotracheal intubations with two different laryngoscope blades: disposable laryngoscope blad...

In this paper, the concepts of $L$-concave structures, concave $L$-interior operators and concave $L$-neighborhood systems are introduced. It is shown that the category of $L$-concave spaces and the category of concave $L$-interior spaces are isomorphic, and they are both isomorphic to the category of concave $L$-neighborhood systems whenever $L$ is a completely distributive lattice. Also, it i...

the effective factors of forward speed, cylinder rotation, and clearance between a combine’s cylinder and concave on wheat kernel breakage and seed germination were studied in karaj area using a 955 model john dear combine. this study was conducted on three levels of adjustment for each of the variables, 1.2, 1.8 and 2.5 km/hr for forward speed, 800, 900, 1000 rpm for cylinder rotation as well ...

Postcranial remains of Boreogomphodon from the Upper Triassic of North Carolina are described and compared to those of other known traversodontid cynodonts. The postcranial skeleton of Boreogomphodon is characterized by four sacral ribs, simple ribs lacking costal plates, the extension of the scapular neck below the acromion process, a short scapular facet on the procoracoid, a concave anterior...

Abstract In order to make more use of wind energy, large-scale turbine blade size is the trend development. With increasing length, design and manufacture structure with requirements safety economy are faced great challenges. It most sensitive manufacturer reduce composite lamination production cost as long stress strain level satisfied. Therefore, ideal thickness distribution requires not only...

Impellers with concave and vertically asymmetric blades proved superior gas dispersion capabilities power consumption characteristics under gassed turbulent conditions respect to traditional flat-blade turbines in aerated fermenters. In this study, a pilot-size gas–liquid tank stirred an blade disk impeller is numerically investigated by means of Reynolds averaged two-fluid model combined simpl...

BACKGROUND There are two forms of Macintosh laryngoscope blade. Compared with the standard blade, the English blade is longer, its curve is more continuous across the entire length of the blade, the flange of the blade continues much closer to the blade tip, and the height of the flange is shorter. METHOD We studied 300 patients to compare the ease of laryngoscopy with each type of Macintosh ...

The aim of the present study was to find a more optimal blade design for rowing performance than the Big Blade, which has been shown to be less than optimal for propulsion. As well as the Big Blade, a flat Big Blade, a flat rectangular blade, and a rectangular blade with the same curvature and projected area as the Big Blade were tested in a water flume to determine their fluid dynamic characte...

in this paper, under the condition that $k$ is concave, we characterize lacunary series in $q_{k}$ spaces. we improve a result due to h. wulan and k. zhu.

in this paper, the fluid-structure interaction phenomenon and the research history are described. then due to the complex and specific working conditions of a turbine blade, we have investigated the phenomenon on this subject. the fluid-structure interaction on a turbine blade model has been simulated by using structural and fluid flow section of ansys software. a model of turbine blade with ai...
