After reisolation of reconducted PVs (left superior, right superior, and left inferior PVs) and completion of making a roof line (posteriorly to the roof vein), a Lasso catheter (meas...

Piecewise-linear terrains (“roofs”) over simple polygons were studied by Aichholzer et al. (1995) in their work on straight skeletons of polygons. We show how to construct a roof over a simple polygon that has minimum (or maximum) volume among all roofs that drain water. Such a maximum-volume (minimumvolume) roof can have quadratic (maybe cubic, resp.) number of facets. Our algorithm for comput...

Along with the strong movement towards sustainable urban environments, there is an increasing use of green roof systems, including the semi-extensive green roofs, which are composed of lightweight layers of freedraining material that support low-growing, tough, and drought-resistant vegetation. Various kinds of green roof systems are also used at street levels, on the top of underground car par...

The fibronectin fibril matrix on the blastocoel roof of the Xenopus gastrula contains guidance cues that determine the direction of mesoderm cell migration. The underlying guidance-related polarity of the blastocoel roof is established in the late blastula under the influence of an instructive signal from the vegetal half of the embryo, in particular from the mesoderm. Formation of an oriented ...

Floating roofs are widely used to store petroleum products with high volatility. This is to prevent the product loss and to ensure safe environment around the storage tanks. However, small number of researches were accomplished. These researches aim at study the design of the floating roof and the associated risks that it faces during operation. In an effort to compensate the lack of knowledge ...

Orbital roof fractures are relatively uncommon in craniofacial surgery but present a management challenge due to their anatomy and potential associated injuries. Currently, neither a classification system nor treatment algorithm exists for orbital roof fractures, which this article aims to provide. This article provides a literature review and clinical experience of a tertiary trauma center in ...

The objective of this study is to present an efficient and robust method of building roof reconstruction by fusing laser range data and aerial images through CSR (Construct-Shape-Refine) procedures. The algorithm starts by extracting 3D line features from laser range data by using the semi-automatic 3D line feature extraction engine. After 3D line features are extracted and regarded as input da...

We report a case of a 12-year-old male child who presented with a gradual onset exopthalmos involving the left eye. The plain radiographs of the skull showed hyperostosis of the left orbital roof. The computerized tomography (CT) scan revealed an intradiploic orbital roof tumor with expansion of both the tables of the orbital roof. The tumor was completely excised by an extradural route using a...
