of a Master's Thesis in Human Biology at the University of Indianapolis filed April 2002 Dr. Stephen P. Nawrocki, Chair Dr. John H. Langdon, Reader The study of human cranial vault thickness (CVT) has a long history. Many researchers have examined systematic differences within and between groups to explore the effects that certain variables have on the thickness of the vault bones. This variati...

This study investigates geometrical variability on the sensitivity of the junctionless tunneling field effect transistor (JLTFET) and Heterostructure JLTFET (HJLTFET) performance. We consider the transistor gate dielectric thickness as one of the main variation sources. The impacts of variations on the analog and digital performance of the devices are calculated by using computer aided design (...

This paper presents a new methodology for complete solution of general shape deep drawn parts. Evaluation of forming severity, estimation of the punch load and prediction of the thickness variation are the major results obtained in this work. The punch work is the summation of the homogenous work of flange deformation and bending and frictional works. To evaluate the strain energy of the flange...

To quantify the relationship between both regional and overall diaphragm morphometry and body weight in the dog, diaphragm thickness was measured in five regions of the costal diaphragm and three regions of the crural diaphragm in 40 healthy dogs (8-40 kg). Surface area of the diaphragm, diaphragm weight, and body weight were also determined. Diaphragm surface area and weight varied linearly wi...

BACKGROUND/AIM In three dimensional optic disc tomography a reference plane is required to calculate optic disc rim or cup values. The position of the reference plane often depends on the retinal thickness at the temporal disc margin. Originally it was assumed that the retinal thickness at the temporal disc margin is independent of age. The aim of the study was to check this hypothesis using op...
