Objectives: Balance disorder is one of the most common problems after stroke causes falling and fear of falling in some patients. The balance based video games are newly used in people with motor problems. It is very important to use different interventions for balance issues. The aim of this study is to determine the effectiveness of videogame on balance and fear of falling in one participant....

Presented herein is a closed-form mathematical solution for the construction of an orthogonal cross section of intersecting cylinder surface geometry created from a single planar section. The geometry in its 3-dimensional state consists of the intersection of two cylindrical surfaces of equal radii which is bounded on all four sides by planes orthogonal to the primary cylinder axis. A multivari...

This paper presents finite element analysis (FEA) of a coated and uncoated cylinder heads of a diesel engine to examine the distribution of temperature and stress. A thermal barrier coating system was applied on the combustion chamber of the cylinder heads, consists of two-layer systems: a ceramic top coat (TC), made of yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ), ZrO2-8%Y2O3 and also a metallic bond coat...

peanuts, an oilseed crop, contain about 46% oil. the peanut shell can be used as fuel or pallets and its dry matter as feedstuff. the whole pods consist of 1-6 kernels. shelling is done at harvest time when the pod moisture content is 5-10%. in this research, a peanut sheller was designed and developed to separate the shell from the pod. the sheller included a hopper, sheller cylinder, concave,...

This paper presents a study of acoustic scattering by a cylinder of either infinite or finite length near a flat pressure-release surface. A novel self-consistent method is developed to describe the multiple scattering interactions between the cylinder and the surface. The complete scattering amplitude for the cylinder is derived from a set of equations, and is numerically evaluated. The result...

Natural convection heat transfer from a single horizontal cylinder and a pair of vertically aligned horizontal cylinders is investigated. Surface heat transfer distributions around the circumference of the cylinders are presented for Rayleigh numbers of 2 x 10, 4 x 10 and 6 x 10 and a range of cylinder spacings of 1.5, 2 and 3 diameters. With a cylinder pairing the lower cylinder is unaffected ...
