Dielectric relaxation of aqueous solutions of micelles, proteins, and many complex systems shows an anomalous dispersion at frequencies intermediate between those corresponding to the rotational motion of bulk water and that of the organized assembly or macromolecule. The precise origin of this anomalous dispersion is not well-understood. In this work we employ large scale atomistic molecular d...

This study compared two Computer Assisted Surgery (CAS) methods in 212 total knee arthroplasties to evaluate the differences between anatomic landmark axes in determining rotational position of the femoral component. Overall, there were large variations between CAS defined component orientation using an optimized gap-balancing technique and component orientation using anatomic reference axes (r...

background: evaluating the landmarks for rotation of the distal femur is a challenge for orthopedic surgeons. although the posterior femoral condyle axis is a good landmark for surgeons, the surgical transepicondylar axis may be a better option with the help of preoperative ct scanning. the purpose of this study was to ascertain relationships among the axes’ guiding distal femur rotational alig...

A statistical theory of the rotational diffusion of a molecule in a two-component anisotropic mixture is developed, based on the Fokker-Planck approximation for the one-particle orientational distribution function. The friction constant of the molecular rotation is determined from the threeparticle correlation function, which takes into account interactions A-A, AB. B A and B B between two sort...

ABSTRACT A planetary gear of a wind turbine is a critical component in the view of condition monitoring and fault detection because the fault of the gear needs much cost and time to fix or replace it. In this paper, classification of damage for a planetary gear is proposed and validated by the experiment of wind turbine simulator in order to evaluate the possibility of the application to fault ...

We present a novel approach to real-time shape editing that produces physically plausible deformations using an efficient and easy-to-implement volumetric approach. Our algorithm alternates between a linear tetrahedral Laplacian deformation step and a differential update in which rotational transformations are approximated. By means of this iterative process we can achieve non-linear deformatio...

The (J, K) = (1,1), (2,2), (3,3), and (4,4) inversion lines of ammonia (NH3) have been detected toward the nuclear 40′′ sized bar of the nearby spiral galaxy Maffei 2. The relative intensities of the ammonia lines are characterized by a rotational temperature of 85 K. This is higher than rotational temperatures measured toward IC 342 and most Galactic Center clouds, implying kinetic temperature...
