When discussing the pathophysiology of ulnar neuropathy, Geoffrey Vaughan Osborne described a fibrous band that can be responsible for the symptoms seen in this disorder. In this paper, we take a glimpse at the life of Osborne and review the anatomy and surgical significance of Osborne's ligament. This band of tissue connects the two heads of the flexor carpi ulnaris and thus forms the roof of ...

According to the geological characteristics of Xinjiang Ili mine in western area of China, a physical model of interstratified strata composed of soft rock and hard coal seam was established. Selecting the tunnel position, deformation modulus, and strength parameters of each layer as influencing factors, the sensitivity coefficient of roadway deformation to each parameter was firstly analyzed b...

This paper addresses the performance evaluation of the multiple input multiple output (MIMO) precoding technique, referred to as max-dmin precoding, over fading channel with impulsive noise in a railway tunnel. Measurements showed that the received signal at the antenna on the moving train roof near the catenary suffers from electromagnetic noise interference (EMI). This implies that the tradit...

The complex shape dependence of wind pressure’s peak factors (PFs) makes it difficult to predict their values for all geometries by using analytical models. Thus, experimental studies are necessary validate available or new models each specific and geometry. Very little information is in the literature hyperbolic paraboloid geometry, which frequently used cable net membrane roofs that particula...

Very large roof suctions on low-rise buildings occur for isolated buildings during both full-scale experiments and wind tunnel tests performed by many investigators. This paper investigates the sensitivity of these high suctions to the presence of multiple surrounding building configurations. This study uses as a basic building shape the Wind Engineering Research Field Laboratory building (WERF...

The influence of cross-section shape on rock stability was investigated by designing a similar model test and numerical simulation using particle flow code (PFC). results showed that the left- right-hand sides entrance are subjected to tension, mainly forming vertical cracks or oblique with large dip angle. vicinity is shear effect overall failure brittle in test. Mesoscopic fractures appear as...
