چکیده
From the physical point of view a shock wave is defined by an abrupt, nearly discontinuous change in pressure and by having a velocity that is higher than the speed of sound in the medium it propagates [1]. A typical pressure profile of a focused shockwave used for therapeutic purposes is shown in fig. 1. Generally a shock wave can be described as a single pulse with a wide frequency range (from approx. 150 kHz up to 100 MHz), high pressure amplitude (up to 150 MPa), low tensile wave (up to -25 MPa), small pulse width and a short rise time of up to a few hundred nanoseconds.

Basic physical principles of nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (N.M.R.I), a nonionizing medical imaging technique, are described. Principles of NMRI with other conventional imaging methods, ie, isotope scanning, ultrasonography and radiography have been compared. T1 and T2 and spin density (S.D.) factors and different image construction techniques based on their different combinations is discu...
متن کاملBasic Physical Principles of Ultrasound
ompetent performance of an ultrasound examination of any type is reliant on an understanding of the basic physical principles that govern the production of ultrasound waves and their interaction with biological tissues of differing densities and consistencies. It is also necessary to understand the basic concepts of how the ultrasound systems work and the concepts underlying their manipulation ...
متن کاملBasic principles of splinting the hand.
This article presents the basic principles needed in the fabrication of static and dynamic splints. The principles are defined, and examples are used as illustrations. The biomechanics of dynamic splinting are described, with special attention given to low-profile dynamic splinting. Several low-profile dynamic splints are described, with current indications presented in case studies with suppor...
متن کاملPhysical principles in neural coding and computation: Lessons from the fly visual system
Successful organisms solve a myriad of problems in the face of profound physical constraints, and it is a challenge to quantify this functionality in a language that parallels our characterization of other physical systems. Strikingly, when we do this the performance of biological systems often approaches the limits set by basic physical principles. Here we describe our exploration of functiona...
متن کاملDesign principles for effective physics instruction: A case from physics and everyday thinking
Although several successful inquiry-based physics and physical science curricula have been developed, little has been published that describes the development of these curricula in terms of their basic design principles. We describe the research-based design principles used in the development of one such curriculum and how these principles are reflected in its pedagogical structure. A case stud...
متن کاملMutual Influence of Mental and Physical Health in Islamic Teachings and the Six Principles of Iranian Medicine
The mutual influence of the body and the mind and the dependence of the health of one on the other is among the most important topics of attention in the Holy Quran, religious texts, and the six principles of Iranian medicine. The realization of this matter is the result of several factors which are related to the physical and mental dimensions of human beings. The Quran has provided various re...
