Duodenal function was studied in 11 healthy volunteers after intragastric instillation of a mixed semi-elemental meal. The duodenum accepted chyme of varying pH, osmolality, and nutrient concentration; and, as a result of biliary, pancreatic, and enteric secretion as well as absorption, it delivered chyme with nearly constant pH, osmolality, and nutrient concentration to the jejunum. The flow r...

In the present study, the boundary value problems in generalized thermodiffusive elastic medium has been investigated as a result of inclined load. The inclined load is assumed to be a linear combination of normal load and tangential load. Laplace transform with respect to time variable and Fourier transform with respect to space variable are applied to solve the problem. As an application of t...

A study of the peculiarities change in concentration toluene atmospheric air city, where sources substance are both vehicles and an industrial enterprise for production synthetic rubber, has been carried out. The paper analyzes behavior methylbenzene different periods: with small large volumes emissions. intake described. diagram emission source built. periods, characterized by load on hygienic...

In this paper, we numerically show that the dynamics of the HIV system is sensitive to both the initial condition and the system parameters. These phenomena imply that the system is chaotic and exhibits a bifurcation behavior. To control the system, we propose to initiate an HIV therapy based on both the concentration of the HIV-1 viral load and the ratio of the CD4 lymphocyte population to the...

Due to the lag between sugar intake and the beginning of recovery from hypoglycemia, it is necessary to intervene in an anticipatory way if one wants to prevent, not only detect, hypoglycemia. This article presents the principle of a hypoglycemia prevention system based on risk assessment. The risk situation can be defined as the moment when the system estimates that the glucose concentration i...

background: date is one of the foodstuff s that are produced in tropical areas and used worldwide. conventionally, methyl bromide and phosphine are used for date disinfection. the toxic side effects of these usual disinfectants have led food scientists to consider safer agents such as ozone for disinfection, because food safety is a top priority. the present study was performed to investigate t...

Assembly of off-road bicycle handlebars with a stem that clamps the handlebar around its circumference would be expected to affect fatigue performance by introducing both assembly stresses and stress concentration. Because the effect of clamping on fatigue performance is unknown and because of the need to insure structural reliability in the stem-handlebar assembly to prevent serious injury, th...
