X-ray microscopy based on Fresnel zone plates is a powerful technique for sub-100 nm resolution imaging of biological and inorganic materials. Here, we report on the modeling, fabrication and characterization of zone-doubled Fresnel zone plates for the multi-keV regime (4-12 keV). We demonstrate unprecedented spatial resolution by resolving 15 nm lines and spaces in scanning transmission X-ray ...

OBJECTIVE To describe a visual acuity test for use in identifying psychogenic visual impairment and malingering. METHODS The test contained 32 white plates with a black Landolt C printed in the center. The sequence of the 4 alternative directions of the C was not predictable. After plate 21, 4 circles were interspersed among the remaining plates. The test is administered at a distance from wh...

The article presents the results of studying impact response ceramic-metal composites ZrO 2 /Ti and /Al with non-rigid fixing layers. It is shown that, as energy dissipates from layer to layer, there takes place an increase in dispersion structure metal foils ceramic plates. have a higher strength, while strength layered differs monolithic ceramics only scarcely. was regardless distance between...

OBJECTIVE To report the outcomes of a posterior hybrid decompression protocol for the treatment of cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) associated with hypertrophic ligamentum flavum (HLF). BACKGROUND Laminoplasty is widely used in patients with CSM; however, for CSM patients with HLF, traditional laminoplasty does not include resection of a pathological ligamentum flavum. METHODS This stu...

In this paper we study stationary incompressible Newtonian fluid flow in a thin porous media. The media under consideration is bounded perforated 3D domain confined between two parallel plates. description of the includes small parameters: ε representing distance plates and $a_\varepsilon$ connected to microstructure such that ≪ $a_\varepsilon \ll \varepsilon$ . We consider classical setting me...

In this letter, the interactions between a cup-core eddy current sensor and a metallic layered structure is studied. An affine relationship between the sensor normalized impedance and the distance between two plates of a metallic assembly is brought to light both by the experiment and by finite elements computations.
