purpose: to evaluate the effect of childhood corneal opacity on the anteroposterior length of the globe in adulthood. methods: twenty-three patients with significant unilateral corneal opacity which had developed before the age of 6 years and the normal fellow eyes (controls) were evaluated. a comprehensive ocular examination including measurement of anterioposterior length and anterior chamber...

composites materials are widely used because of their high specific stiffness and strength. although the methods and techniques of designing these materials are well developed, however, the research on the behavior of these materials under impact and dynamic loadings are still under progress. in this article the crushing and energy absorption of composite tubes under axial dynamic loadings are ...

This study investigated differences in geometrical properties and optical aberrations between a group of hyperopes and myopes (age-matched 30.3+/-5.2 and 30.5+/-3.8 years old, respectively, and with similar absolute refractive error 3.0+/-2.0 and -3.3+/-2.0, respectively). Axial length (AL) was measured by means of optical biometry, and corneal apical radius of curvature (CR) and asphericity (Q...

PURPOSE To evaluate the error in the estimation of axial length (AL) with the IOLMaster partial coherence interferometry (PCI) biometer and obtain a correction factor that varies as a function of AL and crystalline lens thickness (LT). METHODS Optical simulations were produced for theoretical eyes using Zemax-EE software. Thirty-three combinations including eleven different AL (from 20mm to 3...

background: the cervical spine is the most vulnerable part of the vertebral column and the rotational movements are the most dangerous movements which may cause damages to cervical spine. a good treatment option for the cervical disc disease is the replacement of a damaged disc with an artificial disc that has shown satisfactory clinical results. methods: the c4 to c6 vertebrae of a normal subj...

in this study, stability of geosynthetic reinforced soil retaining walls investigated using plaxis code that is based on finite element method. the effects of axial stiffness, length and vertical space between geosynthetic layers, internal friction angle of soil wall and cohesion of foundation on deformations of wall and maximum axial force of geosynthetic have been investigated. results of ana...

in studies done on porous burner, generally burners with axial flow are considered. in this paper, porous burners with radial and axial flow have been modeled numerically and results of radial and axial porous burners with equal fuel consumptions are compared. the mechanism used in combustion phenomenon is 15 stage mechanisms which predict the pollutions production precisely. the results show a...

original article   to determine the association between ocular biometric components and near work in bank employees.this study was conducted as an analytical cross-sectional study. a group of bank employees and a control group were randomly selected. after applying the inclusion criteria, all selected subjects had a set of examinations including refraction, uncorrected and corrected visual acui...
