This study proposed a prediction formula for the torsional strength enabling to reflect the tensile strength of ultra high performance concrete (UHPC) beams based upon the thin-walled tube theory. The remarkable ductile behavior of UHPC can also be attributed to the steel fiber reinforcement. This feature must be considered to provide rational explanation of the torsional behavior of UHPC struc...

The action of the bow produces torsional oscillations in a string, as well as the normal transverse motion [1]. The torsional modes have frequencies several times higher than, and not harmonically related to, the transverse modes. Via the strongly non-linear bow-string interaction, the torsional modes are driven at a harmonic of the translational modes [2]. The torsional mode frequencies for wo...

AIM To investigate changes in fundus excyclotorsion after inferior oblique myectomy or myotomy. METHODS The records of 21 patients undergoing strabismus surgery by a single surgeon between 2009 and 2012 were examined. Only patients who had undergone an inferior oblique myectomy or myotomy, with or without horizontal rectus muscle surgery, were evaluated. Digital fundus photographs were obtain...

Summary The article presents an analysis of the dynamic behaviour discrete flexural systems composed Euler–Bernoulli beams. canonical object study is Green’s function, from which information regarding response lattice under point loading by forces and moments can be obtained. Special attention devoted to interaction between torsional waves in a square beams, shown yield range novel effects, inc...

Torsional dynamic analysis of carbon nanotubes under the effect of longitudinal magnetic field is carried out in the present study. Torque effect of an axial magnetic field on a carbon nanotube has been defined using Maxwell’s relation. Nonlocal governing equation and boundary conditions for carbon nanotubes are obtained by using Hamilton’s minimum energy principle. Eringen’s nonlocal stress gr...

One of the signs of the cerebellar ocular motor syndrome is the inability to maintain horizontal and vertical fixation. Typically, in the presence of cerebellar atrophy, the eyes show horizontal gaze-evoked and vertical downbeat nystagmus. We investigated whether or not the cerebellar ocular motor syndrome also includes a torsional drift and, specifically, if it is independent from the drift in...

Purpose: To compare the efficacy and phacoemulsification parameters of torsional mode versus the combined torsional and longitudinal ultrasound mode in hard cataract of Egyptian patients. Methods: This randomized comparative study evaluated eyes 1, 7, and 30 days after phacoemulsification with an Infiniti Vision System using the torsional mode versus the combined torsional (100%) and longitudin...
