An intensive experimental investigation was conducted to study the effect of vertical tail, single and twin (with different cant angles) on the flow field and the corresponding aerodynamic forces and moments of a model of a fighter A/C. Aerodynamic forces under different flight conditions and different vertical tail settings were measured in a supersonic wind tunnel. Furthermore, effects of ver...

Fundamental understanding of the goaf gas distribution in a gassy coal mine is necessary for developing effective goaf gas drainage strategies in the longwall coal mine. The goaf gas was subjected to the surface and body forces that were classified depending upon whether they acted on the surface area or the volume of the gas element. Of these forces, the body forces were more predominant in di...

According to AO/ASIF classi!cation system the pelvic ring fractures are graded into three types, A, B, and C, in order of increasing severity (4). Type A injuries are stable including avulsion fractures, fractures of the iliac wing and transverse fractures of the sacrum. Type B injuries are rotationally unstable but vertically and posteriorly stable. "ey may be caused by external rotatory force...

The turtle papilla neglecta (PN) is a small organ lying in the ventrolateral utricular wall between the posterior crista (PC) and the utriculosaccular foramen. Innervated by a branch of the posterior ampullary nerve, the organ is covered by a cupula extending only a small distance into the endolymphatic space. Although most rotation-sensitive units in the posterior division of the eighth nerve ...

Abstract. In this paper, we study the dynamic frictional contact of a viscoelastic beam with a deformable obstacle. The beam is assumed to be situated horizontally and to move, in both horizontal and tangential directions, by the effect of applied forces. The left end of the beam is clamped and the right one is free. Its horizontal displacement is constrained because of the presence of a deform...

To resolve the problem of super-long steel structures producing high-temperature stress on lower concrete roof column section and improve structure’s seismic performance, in this paper, we introduce a type composite damped hinge bearing (CDHB). Firstly, paper introduces detailed construction CDHB elaborates its working principle. The mechanical properties have been tested, including monotonic l...

This study investigated the relationship between pneumatic nutrunner handle reactions, workstation characteristics, and prevalence of upper limb injuries in an automobile assembly plant. Tool properties (geometry, inertial properties, and motor characteristics), fastener properties, orientation relative to the fastener, and the position of the tool operator (horizontal and vertical distances) w...

Muscular activity, vertical displacement and ground reaction forces of back squats (BS), rear-leg elevated split squats (RLESS) and split squats (SS) were examined. Nine resistance-trained men reported for two sessions. The first session consisted of the consent process, practice, and BS 1-repetition maximum testing. In the second session, participants performed the three exercises while EMG, d...

Femoral neck fractures in young patients are usually caused by a high-energy trauma, which results in a perpendicular fracture. Although efforts are focused on preserving the femoral head in young patients, vertical femoral neck fracture is a problematic orthopedic injury due to the domination of shear forces. Due to controversy regarding which fixation method is the best choice, the purpose of...
