Atherosclerosis is a common finding in the vertebrobasilar junction and in the basilar artery. Several theories try to link the process of atherogenesis with the forces exerted by the flowing blood. An attractive relation has been found between the locations in vessels at which atherosclerotic plaques are often present and the locations in models where complicated flow patterns exist. Most of t...

Seventy dry skulls were obtained from the Department of Anatomy. Of these, 2 skulls showed occipitalization. These were photographed and radiographed. Several measurements, including cranial index, dimensions of the foramen magnum, basal angle and basal impression, were taken. Both skulls showed near by complete fusion of the atlas with the occipital bone. A continuation of the confluence of th...

iv alpine river confluences. Systematic laboratory experiments were performed in a confluence flume where the main channel is 8.5 m long and 0.50 m wide. A 4.9 m long and 0.15 m wide tributary channel is connected at an angle of 90°. Three discharge scenarios were tested for four different geometrical configurations: a reference case (without widening) and three different tributary widenings: t...

This paper is an exploratory sociological analysis of poetic confluence, a spontaneous telepathic phenomenon that occurs in everyday social interaction. In one person’s talk exhibits enigmatic relationship to another’s unstated thoughts or imagery at moment. The analyses draw from empirical approach called Conversation Analysis, formal qualitative method for the naturally occurring interaction ...

In this study, numerical simulations using the Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code model were conducted to elucidate effects of flow structures in recirculation zone on solute storage based junction angle. Numerical performed at a angle 30° 90° with momentum flux ratio 1.62. The simulation results revealed that an increase caused length and width strengthened development helical motion. motion in...
