in this paper deflection and free vibration of sandwich panel is studied. the core of sandwich panels is made of hexagonal honeycomb and faces are made of two different materials of carbon fiber reinforced plastic and k-aryl/epoxy covering. the governing equations are deduced from the first order sheer deformation theory (fsdt) and they are solved using generalized differential quadrature metho...

Cells in the rodent barrel cortex respond to vibrissa deflection with a brief excitatory component and a longer suppressive component. The response to a given deflection is thus scaled because of suppression induced by a preceding deflection, causing the neuronal response to be linked to the temporal properties of the peripheral stimulus. A paired-deflection stimulus was used to characterize th...

In practice, a robotic joint is linearly and angularly deflected when a load is applied at the endeffector. This article presents an improved method with a combination of energy methods and the concepts of differential relationships to more accurately calculate the static deflection at the end-effector. A systematic approach to deflection calculation through three different Jacobians is present...

The stomatostylet of Criconemoides curvature consists of three parts: tooth cone, shaft, and knobs. The tooth cone constitutes the outer conical covering and inner lining of the anterior half of the stylet lumen. The tooth cone is easily separated from the shaft by treating an isolated styler with 0.5% sodium hypochlorite. The posterior half of the shaft is cylindrical, tapering anteriorly to f...

background femur fracture is one of the most common fractures in children. certain parameters such as the patient’s age, the exact location of fracture, type of fracture, the mechanism of fracture, and the accompanying injuries determine which one of the many treatment techniques be used in each case. objectives we aimed to compare the results of close and open techniques in pediatric femoral s...

vascular injuries with acute or chronic arterial hemorrhage after femoral shaft fractures are a rare but a life-threatening complication. we observed a case of iatrogenic rupture of the profunda femoris artery after the internal fixation of a femoral shaft fracture. the pseudoaneurysm, presenting with painful expansile swelling and hemodynamic instability, together with the rupture was evident ...

Dynamic deflection measurement is an important component to the bridge loading experiment or health monitoring. Using high-precision inclinometers to test the dynamic deflection is a good method for High-Speed Railway Bridge deflection measurement in this paper, we develop a kind of precision inclinometer which comprehensives the Capacitive sensor technology and the Servo sensor technology and ...

A method for measuring shaft diameters is presented using structured light vision measurement. After calibrating a model of the structured light measurement, a virtual plane is established perpendicular to the measured shaft axis and the image of the light stripe on the shaft is projected to the virtual plane. On the virtual plane, the center of the measured shaft is determined by fitting the p...

introduction: it is believed that locus coeruleus (lc) influences the sensory information processing. however, its role in cortical surround inhibitory mechanism is not understood. in this experiment, using controlled mechanical displacement of whiskers we investigated the effect of phasic electrical stimulation of lc on response of layer v barrel cortical neurons in anesthetized rat. methods: ...
