background: we aimed to analyze the effect of nursing strategies on patients with chronic renal failure (crf) undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (mhd) treatment by puncturing on arteriovenous fistula (avf). methods: ninety-two patients with chronic renal failure undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (mhd) between jan 2014 and jan 2015 were included in the study (all undergoing avf, dialysis for ...

We investigate a theoretical magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) disc problem involving a composite disc system of gravitationally coupled stellar and gaseous discs with a coplanar magnetic field in the presence of an axisymmetric dark matter halo. The two discs are expediently approximated as razor-thin, with a barotropic equation of state, a power-law surface mass density, a ring-like magnetic field, a...

Parker problem in Hall magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is considered. Poloidal shear into the toroidal flow generated by the Hall effect is incorporated. This is found to lead to a triple deck structure for the Parker problem in Hall MHD, with the magnetic field falling off in the intermediate Hall-resistive region more steeply (like 1/x) than that (like 1/x) in the outer ideal MHD region. ∗Permanen...

We discuss the procedure for the exact solution of the Riemann problem in special relativistic MHD. We consider both initial states leading to a set of only three waves analogous to the ones in relativistic hydrodynamics, as well as generic initial states leading to the full set of seven MHD waves. Because of its generality, the solution presented here could serve as an important if not indispe...

We assemble the equations of general relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) in 3+1 form. These consist of the complete coupled set of Maxwell equations for the electromagnetic field, Einstein’s equations for the gravitational field, and the equations of relativistic MHD for a perfectly conducting ideal gas. The adopted form of the equations is suitable for evolving numerically a relativistic M...

Introduction An initial feasibility study has been conducted to determine whether the advantages offered by an MHD conversion system for marine use are worth further investigations. 1 In this investigation a gas Brayton MHD cycle and one example of a liquid-metal Rankine MHD cycle were used; required were a power output of 11 megawatts and a given nuclear reactor capable of transmitting a tempe...

Astrophysical turbulence is magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) in its nature. We discuss fundamental properties of MHD turbulence. In particular, we discuss the generation of compressible MHD waves by Alfvenic turbulence and show that this process is inefficient. This allows us to study the evolution of different types of MHD perturbations separately. We describe how to separate MHD fluctuations into 3 ...

In an X-ray binary system, the companion star feeds the compact neutron star with plasma materials via accretions. The spinning neutron star is likely covered with a thin “magnetized ocean” and may support magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) tidal waves. While modulating the thermal properties of the ocean, MHD tidal waves periodically shake the base of the stellar magnetosphere that traps energetic part...
