Objectives The identification and interpretation of skeletal trauma is an important topic in osteoarchaeology, forensic anthropology palaeosciences. Trauma analysis a fast-moving sub-discipline with constantly evolving methodological approaches. This paper describes the process particular form fracturing that propagates specifically from floor cut marks proposes new terminology for this subset ...

The computation of flows with large density contrasts is notoriously difficult. To alleviate the difficulty we consider a discretization Navier-Stokes equation that advects mass and momentum in consistent manner. Incompressible flow capillary forces modeled performed on staggered grid Marker Cell type. Volume-of-Fluid method used to track interface Height-Function compute surface tension. advec...

People who survive into late life with chronic or relapsing illnesses, which had their onset in youth or middle age, have special needs. In the past, those most severely affected often lived out their lives in mental hospitals. The mental hospital closure programme led to discharges to alternative care, and the successes and failures of these have been monitored by some services. Subsequent gen...

Objective: To discuss the use of Grafix®, a commercially available, cryopreserved placental membrane, for the treatment of chronic/stalled wounds of different etiologies. Approach: To describe the unique composition of Grafix, to provide an overview of the existing clinical evidence supporting the benefits of Grafix for wound treatment, and to share the experience of the South Shore Hospital Ce...

Complementary and alternative therapies continue to grow in popularity among healthcare consumers. Among those modalities is energy healing (EH) (Eisenberg et al., 1998). EH is an adjunctive treatment that is noninvasive and poses little downside risk to patients. Well more than 50 major hospitals and clinics throughout the United States offer EH to patients (DiNucci, research table on healthca...

Everyone learns the basics of friction in high-school physics classes: the friction force experienced by a sliding object is proportional to the normal force that an object exerts on a surface. Remarkably, this extremely simple and empirical relation, known as Amontons’ Law, is still often used in creating the most technologically sophisticated machines and devices, even though friction is know...
