The direction of the obliquity of the cut for performing single-cut osteotomy to correct combined angular and rotational deformities is difficult to determine. The appropriate obliquity, i.e. whether clockwise or anticlockwise in relation to the perpendicular to the bone axis, is usually determined through trials using plastic bone models to imitate the deformity, or on bananas, on which differ...

Let G be a minimal imperfect P 5-free graph (i.e. a minimal imperfect graph not containing a path on 5 vertices as induced subgraph) and let S be a minimal cutset of G. In this paper we study several properties of such cutsets, in particular we prove that the subgraph induced by S is connected, contains a P 4 , cannot induce a bipartite subgraph of G .... As a by-product we also give a structur...

distinguishing productive zones of a drilled oil well plays a very important role for petroleum engineers to decide where to perforate to produce oil. conventionally, net pay zones are determined by applying a set of cut-offs on perophysical logs. as a result, the conventional method finds productive intervals crisply. in this investigation, a net index value is proposed, then; diffusivity equa...

This paper aims to evaluate the utility of a single glucometer fasting capillary blood glucose (FCBG) measurement in determining the prevalence of diabetes mellitus in a homogeneous adult population. FCBG measurements were compared with results of the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) in 445 subjects aged 30-65 years in an urban cross-sectional study in Old Ramallah. Prevalence of diabetes, se...

A new scalable scheduling strategy using cut through switching is proposed in this paper. Recursive and closed form expressions for speedup are found in heterogeneous single level trees and in homogeneous multilevel trees, respectively. The ratio of speedup using cut through switching to that using store and forward switching is presented so as to illustrate the amount of improvement in speedup...

A cut-vertex in a graph G is a vertex whose removal increases the number of connected components of G. An end-block of G is a block with a single cut-vertex. In this paper we establish upper bounds on the numbers of end-blocks and cut-vertices in a 4-regular graph G and claw-free 4-regular graphs. We characterize the extremal graphs achieving these bounds.

Axons of the lobster deep abdominal extensor muscles were cut, and the resulting effects on their synaptic properties were observed. Decentralized axons continued to conduct action potentials and to release transmitter for at least a year after the cut. In controls, the single quanta were brief, and their decay phase could be fit by a single exponent, with a time constant of about 2 msec. Quant...

this experiment was conducted to study the effects of single and combined application of organic, biological and chemical fertilizers on qualitative and quantitative characteristics of vegetative part of coriander, (coriandrum sativum l.). the experiment was carried out as split plot in time based on complete randomized block design with three replications and 12 treatments at research station,...

This paper presents a comparison of frequency pullability in oscillators using a single AT-cut crystal and those using two single AT-cut crystals connected in parallel operated with a series load capacitance or series load inductance at fundamental frequencies of 4, 10 and 19 MHz. Pullability describes how the operating frequency may be changed by varying the load capacitance. The paper also gi...

This paper provides an analysis of capacitated network design cut–set polyhedra. We give a complete linear description of the cut–set polyhedron of the single commodity – single facility capacitated network design problem. Then we extend the analysis to single commodity – multifacility and multicommodity – multifacility capacitated network design problems. Valid inequalities described here are ...
