IV.—On the Tunnel Section Near Honiton, Devon

Numerical simulation of water entry of tunnel cross section with different deadrise angles and tunnel radiuses

This study deals with the numerical modeling of symmetrical water entry of tunneled sections. In this study, firstly, the water entry problem of a wedge section without tunnel in four different deadrise angles was numerically modeled. The obtained results related to the pressure distribution on these sections and the maximum pressure have been compared with the experiment results. In the next s...

The near-nerve sensory nerve conduction in tarsal tunnel syndrome.

The near-nerve sensory nerve conduction in the medial and lateral plantar nerves was studied in 25 cases of tarsal tunnel syndrome. Sensory nerve conduction was abnormal in 24 cases (96%) The most common abnormalities were slow nerve conduction velocities and dispersion phenomenon (prolonged duration of compound nerve action potentials). These two electrophysiological abnormalities are indicati...

Farmer's lung in Devon.

Farmer's lung is a cause of disability to agricultural workers in Devon and there is no evidence that the incidence is falling. A survey of known cases was made to assess the degree of disability in relation to the clinical history, the presence of farmer's lung precipitins, tests of lung function, and radiographic changes. Information was obtained about 200 patients diagnosed between 1939 and ...

Photodisintegration cross section of beryllium near threshold

9 The cross section for photoneutron production in Be at energies of 1. 692, 1. 720, and 1. 78 Mev has been investigated using radioisotope gamma-ray sources. Neutron counting was by manganous sulfate bath and a long counter. Gamma-ray counting was by a scintillation spectrometer consisting of a Nal(Tl) scintillation crystal and a 256-channel pulse^height analyzer. The following results were ob...
