background:  the glenohumeral joint becomes dislocated more than any other major joint because it maintains a wide range of motion and its stability is inherently weak. the most common complication following acute initial shoulder dislocation is recurrent dislocation or chronic instability. imbalance of strength and range of motion in individuals with anterior dislocation can be a contributing ...

introduction: in this study, a computer analysis method based on a block matching algorithm is presented to extract the longitudinal movement of the carotid artery wall using consecutive ultrasonic images. a window (block) is selected as the reference block in the first frame and the most similar block to the reference one is found in the subsequent frames. material and methods: the program was...

a theoretical solution is presented for the forced convection heat transfer of a viscoelastic fluid obeying the giesekus constitutive equation in a concentric annulus under steady state, laminar, and purely tangential flow. a relative rotational motion exists between the inner and the outer cylinders, which induces the flow. a constant temperature was set in both cylinders, in this study. the f...

in this paper the effect of braking force error on the dynamic behavior of the truck is investigated. in the previous studies concerning the braking force error on the vehicle lateral deviation, to avoid complexity, researchers have assumed that the vehicle velocity during the braking process remains constant. in the present work, based on the realistic assumption that the vehicle velocity woul...
