Because musculoskeletal injuries to racehorses are common, instrumentation for the study of factors (e.g. track surface), which affect the ground reaction loads in horses during racing conditions, would be useful. The objectives of the work reported by this paper were to (1) design and construct a novel dynamometric horseshoe that is capable of measuring the complete ground reaction loading dur...

We investigate the unsaturated horseshoe drag exerted on a low-mass planet by an isothermal gaseous disk. In the globally isothermal case, we use a formalism, based on the use of a Bernoulli invariant, that takes into account pressure effects, and that extends the torque estimate to a region wider than the horseshoe region. We find a result that is strictly identical to the standard horseshoe d...

The placenta is essential for the success of therian mammalian reproduction. Intense selective pressure has shaped changes in placental anatomy and function during mammalian cladogenesis. Here we challenge the view that the hemochorial placenta is a derived feature in haplorhine primates. Using phylogenetic and statistical analyses of molecular and morphological data, we demonstrate that the an...

The horseshoe kidney is a frequent urological birth defect. The most frequent complications are urinary tract infections, stones and hydronephrosis. The occurrence of glomerular disease in horseshoe kidney is rare. Therefore, we report the first case of minimal change disease occurring in a patient with horseshoe kidney in literature. A 22-year-old Caucasian man without personal or family medic...

duplication anomalies are quite common with ureteral duplication anomalies being the most frequent. despite the relatively frequent incidence of a horseshoe kidney and duplication anomalies in any individual patient, the combination of horseshoe kidney and bilateral ureteric duplication is a very rare entity and very few cases have been reported to date. we present a case of a patient with nove...

Annular placenta is an extremely rare morphological type of human placenta. It is commonly related to placental vessel abnormalities frequently causing antenatal and postnatal hemorrhage and operative delivery. Gravida 4 para 1 had an uneventful course of pregnancy and normal vaginal delivery followed by moderate postpartum hemorrhage. Hemorrhage was found to be local in origin but the placenta...

Horseshoe kidney is a rare congenital anomaly showing various degrees of fusion and accessory blood supply. Coexistence of horseshoe kidney and aortic aneurysm therefore presents a technical challenge to vascular surgeons. We report an 83-year-old woman with a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm associated with horseshoe kidney. Preoperative computed tomography (CT) showed discontinuity of the a...

conclusions precise evaluation of patients with one renal abnormality could lead to detection of other associated anomalies. application of minimally invasive procedures such as ureteroscopic incision is highly recommended in ureterocele treatment. case presentation a middle-aged male was known to have horseshoe kidney, bilateral ureteroceles and a stone, 1 cm in diameter, in his right ureter. ...

Abstract The problem of inhibition horseshoe chaos in a nonlinear hysteretic systems using negative stiffness is investigated this paper. Bouc–Wen model used to describe the force produced by both purely and linear elastic springs. analytical investigation Hamiltonian shows that appearance separatrix system directly related parameters forces. This means transverse intersection between perturbed...
