there is a new technique to measure total body water named bio-electrical impedance analysis (bia), used in healthy subjects and patients. bia determines the total body water (tbw), fat-free mass (ffm), body cell mass (bcm), extra cellular water (ecw), and intra cellular water (icw) in subjects without significant fluid and electrolyte imbalance. there are several methods such as segmental bia,...

a brief account of the representative and workable industrial minerals namely magnesite, talc and barite in lesser himalaya, is presented here emphasizing their genesis. deposits of magnesite and talc are found associated with neoproterozoic, plateform type, shelf-slope limestone-dolomite host rocks from inner lesser himalayan sequences. field, textural, geochemical signatures and fluid inclusi...

in the paper we developed a new method to determine the absolute amount of adsorption. this method relies on the excess adsorption isotherm and the density profile in the pore of one material. to compute the density profile and decrease complex calculation of obtaining the absolute amount of adsorption we introduced simplified local-density (sld) model. a few of appropriate parameters were acqu...

Fluid management is an integral component in the management of patients with acute renal failure (ARF) in the ICU setting. In the presence of a failing kidney, fluid removal is often a challenge and requires the use of high dose diuretics with a variable response. It is often necessary in this setting to institute dialysis for volume control rather than metabolic control. CRRT techniques offer ...

   Drilling fluids are an essential component of the rotary drilling process used to drill for oil and gas on land and offshore environments. The injection of this nano particle into drilling fluid increases the viscosity levels fluids. In these experiments, the rheological properties of the fluid including apparent viscosity (AV), plastic viscosity (PV), yielding point (YP), mud c...

In this paper, we propose a new fluid-fluid collision model for particle-based immiscible fluid animation. Our model consists of two components, namely, collision detection and collision response. An interesting feature is that our model not only can prevent immiscible fluids from mixing with each other, but also can allow one fluid to run through or to wrap around another fluid. The model is v...
