in this paper, front engine accessory drive (fead) system of automotive engine is modeled with adams software. the model is validated using engine test data. it is then used to investigate the effect of design parameters on the system performance such as belt vibration and loads on the idlers. three alternative layouts were developed in order to improve the performance of original eead system. ...

human peripheral blood monocytes have been found to undergo a transitory state of high accessory activity before they fully become macrophages. time kinetics were done to follow this accessory potential. studying the regulation of accessory activity, we have found that monocyte derived accessory cells (m-ac) pass through two phases of development, both of which are adversely controlled by cycli...

transcatheter ablation of atrioventricular accessory pathway is the therapy of choice in symptomatic patients. the ablation of posteroseptal accessory pathways thas some important points due to its anatomical location. catheter ablation of posteroseptal accessory pathways via left side approach is time consuming with low success rate and higher complications. we performed successful transcathet...

introduction: the purpose of this study was to compare first accessory gutta-percha penetration after the use of nickel-titanium (ni-ti) or stainless-steel spreaders in curved resin blocks. materials and methods: forty resin blocks with 30º and 45º curvatures (20 blocks for each) were prepared and #30 master cones were placed in canals. in part one, under 20 newton pressure, ni-ti or stainless-...

accessory pathways (ap) are abnormal myocardial connections between atria and ventricles with electrical conductive properties. we performed radio frequency (rf) catheter ablation in 66 patients with manifest ap at dr.shariati hospital during 5 years. bipolar mapping was used in 48 patients and unipolar mapping in 18 patients of find the best site for rf energy delivery. we calculated total dur...

awareness of the presence of the accessory renal artery in kidney transplant, treatment of renal artery stenosis, clinical assessment of renal vascular hypertension, radiology and angiography interventions is very helpful. in 30% of cases the accessory renal artery is separated from the abdominal aorta and in most cases, this artery along with the main artery entered to the kidney through the h...
