purpose: to determine the efficacy of primary placement of a titanium sleeve and peg on hydroxyapatite (ha) orbital implants. methods: this retrospective non-comparative interventional case series was performed on 34 patients undergoing enucleation. a standard enucleation technique with primary ha implantation was performed, in which titanium sleeve and peg were placed primarily during the init...

In the most recent heuristic methods, the high potential buses for capacitor placement are initially identified and ranked using loss sensitivity factors (LSFs) or power loss index (PLI). These factors or indices help to reduce the search space of the optimization procedure, but they may not always indicate the appropriate placement of capacitors. This paper proposes an efficient approach for t...

Autonomous object placement is a central task in many military and industrial applications. Deciding where to place an object, or placement planning, is a crucial reasoning task within object placement. Placement planning is especially challenging in 3D worlds. In previous work we developed approaches for placement planning that perform well but require manually-engineered knowledge. Consequent...

Placement is the process of determining the locations of circuit devices on a die surface. It is an important stage in the VLSI design flow, because it affects routability, performance, heat distribution, and to a less extent, power consumption of a design. Traditionally, it is applied after the logic synthesis stage and before the routing stage. Since the advent of deep submicron process techn...

Sub-resolution assist features (SRAFs) provide an absolutely essential technique for critical dimension (CD) contro1 and process window enhancement in subwavelengt h lithography. However, as focus levels change during manufacturing, CDs at a given Gilegai” pitch can fail t o achieve manufacturing tolerances required for adequate yield. Furthermore, a d o p tion of off-axis illumination (OAI) an...

Communication placement analysis is an important step in the compilation of data-parallel programs. However, to simplify the placement analysis, previous techniques ignored most machine-dependent resource constraints. This paper demonstrates the necessity of incorporating resource constraints in ensuring the correctness of the communication placement. It presents a new placement analysis techni...

Placement process is one of the vital stages in physical design. In this stage, modules and elements of circuit are placed in distinct locations according to optimization basis. So that, each placement process tries to influence on one or more optimization factor. In the other hand, it can be told unequivocally that FPGA is one of the most important and applicable devices in our electronic worl...

Background: The aim of this study is to evaluate whether the location of the balloon placement into either the cervical canal or uterine cavity during sonohysterography can affect the intensity of pain. Materials and Methods: A total of 300 infertile women undergoing sonohysterography were randomized to intracervical or intrauterine balloon placement. The examination was scheduled in the early ...
