In this article effects of friction stir welding (FSW) tool rotational and traverse speeds were studied on heat generation and temperature distribution in welding zone of AA1100 aluminum alloy and A441 AISI joint. Computational fluid dynamics method was used to simulate the process with commercial CFD Fluent 6.4 package. To enhance the accuracy of simulation in this Study, the welding line that...

a total of 68385 live pin-worm eggs from adhesive scotch tape were exposed to different detergent powders in under to compare method of detergent washing clothes with the boiling method for the control of family enterobiasis. results show that: a) 80.4-100 percent of eggs are destroyed after hatching within 6-8 hours of exposure to 0.25 gr% detergent at 10-250c. exposure for less than 6 hours h...

BACKGROUND The optimal treatment for femoral fractures in children is controversial. The purpose of this study was to compare the results of Rush pin fixation with those of conservative treatment, and to evaluate the sequels of growth plate injury by internal fixation. METHODS Eighteen femoral shaft fractures in 17 children who had concomitant head injury or multiple traumas were treated surg...

The dynamic patterning of the plant hormone auxin and its efflux facilitator the PIN protein are the key regulators for the spatial and temporal organization of plant development. In particular auxin induces the polar localization of its own efflux facilitator. Due to this positive feedback, auxin flow is directed and patterns of auxin and PIN arise. During the earliest stage of vein initiation...

The laboratory rat, a non-photoperiodic rodent, exhibits seasonal fluctuations of melatonin. Melatonin has been found to be readily transferred from the maternal to the fetal circulation. No data exist on the possible influence of maternal pineal gland upon seasonal variations of the offspring. The aim of the present study was to asses the influence of the maternal melatonin rhythm on the offsp...

We model membrane proteins as anisotropic objects characterized by symmetric-traceless tensors and determine the coupling between these orderparameters and membrane curvature. We consider the interactions 1) between transmembrane proteins that respect up-down (reflection) symmetry of bilayer membranes and that have circular or non-circular cross-sectional areas in the tangent-plane of membranes...

It is a common problem, radial distortion of off-theshelf cameras, especially those low-cost ones and wide-angle ones. And the most direct method to judge whether radial distortion occurs in an image is the straightness of those lines in the image, for the straight line in the image should be straight in the ideal image under the pin-hole camera model. In this paper, we present a new line-based...

Introduction: The restoration material commonly used as core material for pulpless posterior teeth is mostly amalgam due to its high strength and low cost and it can be used with or without pin. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of post material on stress distribution in mandibular second premolar tooth by finite element analysis. Method: The stress distribution was analyzed i...
