In this study, the coherent structure dynamics and entrainment capability of elliptical jets emitted from an nozzle with aspect ratio (AR) values 1 (i.e., a circular jet), 2, 4 at fixed Reynolds number 3000 were experimentally characterized by flow reconstruction using tomographic particle image velocimetry modal decomposition time-domain spectral proper orthogonal method. Statistical analysis ...

    Background: Evaluating the landmarks for rotation of the distal femur is a challenge for orthopedic surgeons. Although the posterior femoral condyle axis is a good landmark for surgeons, the surgical transepicondylar axis may be a better option with the help of preoperative CT scanning. The purpose of this study was to ascertain relationships among the axes’ guiding distal femur rotational ...

(-)-5-Methyl-6,7-dihydro-5H-dibenz[c,e]azepine 4, a new secondary amine featuring an axis-center stereochemical relay, was prepared enantioselectively from 2'-acetylbiphenyl-2-carboxylic acid, using (R)-2-phenylglycinol as an auxiliary for the control of both elements of chirality. The biaryl axis in 4 preferentially adopts the aS-configuration, with the methyl substituent pseudoequatorial, but...

background: ferula gummosa boiss. is a medicinal and economical plant belonging to apiaceae family. it is a native herb of iran and is in serious danger of extinction. objective: gamma irradiation is an environmental stress and can consider as a new tool to change the content of secondary metabolites in medicinal plants. the effect of gamma irradiation on phenolic content and radical scavenging...
