In order to improve the environmental adaptability and sealing performance of the rotating seal, the principles and failure mechanisms of the rotating seal in ambient pressure in deep-sea is researched. It is proposed that the excessive friction caused by the ambient pressure and the magnitude of interference is the main reason for rotating seal failure. To reduce friction effect, a combined li...

Existing theories describe corrosive wear in crosshead diesel engines in terms of acid condensation, when the temperature in the combustion space drops below the dew point. Here a theory is proposed which stresses the role of alkaline cylinder lubricants in protecting the metal surface. Calculated liner wear rates as a function of fuel sulphur content, feed rate and alkalinity of the oil, and a...

A spinning rough disk moves through a rarefied medium on the plane. The roughness is formed by small cavities on the disk boundary. The medium is so rare that mutual interaction of particles can be neglected. All collisions of particles with the disk are perfectly elastic; there may happen multiple collisions in the cavities. We calculate the force of resistance acting on the body and examine h...

The purpose of this study to clarify the factors an effecting lip seal in Japanese adults with malocclusion. Sixty-three malocclusion patients aged 20 to 27 years were randomly selected and compared with fourteen normal occlusion controls aged 22 to 26 years old. The subjects were divided into a good seal group and a poor lip seal group by observing the distance between the upper and lower lip ...

Flabby ridge, also known as a mobile or displaceable is common clinical challenge encountered in dental practice. The flabby ridge lacks firmness and stability, causing dentures to become loose unstable. This can lead discomfort, difficulty speaking eating, decreased quality of life for denture wearers. often the necessary contour resilience create an effective seal maintain suction between bas...

To assess the potential effects of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) on the expression of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2B and 3A isozymes in Baikal seal, the 5′-flanking regions of these CYP genes were isolated, and transactivation analysis was performed by in vitro reporter gene assay system. The 3.2 kbp of CYP2B and 2.2 kbp of CYP3A gene promoter/enhancer regions were cloned and sequenced from Ba...

The rotordynamic and leaking characteristics of two types of gas damper seals, honeycomb seal and pocket damper seal, were experimentally evaluated on a rotating test rig. The effect of supply pressure, preswirl, and seal eccentricity on seal dynamic performance was investigated in the tests. The pressurized working gas flowed through the seal and exhausted to atmospheric conditions. The maximu...

A situation analysis among which a cross-sectional survey of dental practitioners working in primary healthcare centers found that while 127 (94.8%) out 134 respondents consider fissure sealants effective yet, most them have misconceptions regarding teeth to carious and seal as only 15 (11.2%) recognized initial non-cavitated lesions are the same around half sealed either. Fissure provided for ...

--Many watermarking methods for protecting the intellectual property right and authenticating multimedia data have been proposed in recent years. It is possible to guarantee the authenticity of data using readable and fragile watermarking. In this paper, we propose a visible watermarking technique using verifiable digital seal image that is based on the concept of fragile watermarking. Seal ima...
