Ultrasonography is a relatively easy, safe and non-invasive examination method which can be used in diagnosis of ocular disorders as complementary to routine ophthalmic examinations. As there has been no collated study undertaken on the normal measurements of ocular structures in Caspian miniature horse, obtaining these measurements could be a benchmark to diagnose some of the diseases and eye ...

Let $X$ be a  Banach  space, $Csubset X$  be  a  closed  convex  set  included  in  a well-based cone $K$, and also let $sigma_C$ be the support function which is defined on $C$. In this note, we first study the existence of a  bounded base for the cone $K$, then using the obtained results, we find some geometric conditions for the set  $C$,  so that ${mathop{rm int}}(mathrm{dom} sigma_C) neqem...
