Decortication of bone with a high-speed burr in the absence of coolant may lead to local thermal necrosis and decreased healing ability, which may negatively impact clinical outcome. Little data are available on the impact of applying a coolant during the burring process. This study aims to establish an in vitro model to quantitatively assess peak temperatures during endplate preparation with a...

We are perplexed by Clarke et al.’s (2013) criticisms on our recent contribution to Journal of Vision (Pooresmaeili, Cicchini, Morrone, & Burr, 2012). Our group has long championed the idea that perceptual processing of information can be anchored in a dynamic coordinate system that need not correspond to the instantaneous retinal representation. Our recent evidence shows that temporal duration...

In recent years, many attempts have been carried out to develop the Burr type X distribution, which is widely used in fitting lifetime data. These extended distributions can model hazard function decreasing, increasing and bathtub shapes, except for unimodal. Hence, this paper aims introduce a new continuous namely exponentiated beta provides greater flexibility order overcome deficiency of exi...

We propose a lifetime distribution with flexible hazard rate called cubic rank transmuted modified Burr III (CRTMBIII) distribution. develop the proposed on basis of ranking transmutation map. The density function CRTMBIII is symmetrical, right-skewed, left-skewed, exponential, arc, J and bimodal shaped. model can accommodate almost all types shapes such as unimodal, bimodal, increasing, decrea...
