We describe a case of coccidioidomycosis in which several unusual morphologic forms of Coccidioides immitis occurred in biopsy tissue from the right lower lung of a patient. To our knowledge, this is the first case where so many diverse morphologic forms were manifested in a single patient in the absence of typical endosporulating spherules. Immature spherules demonstrating segmentation mimicke...

Sand production is a complex phenomenon caused by the erosion of borehole walls during extraction hydrocarbons. In this paper, sanding process in typical Thick-Walled Hollow Cylinder (TWHC) test numerically simulated. The main objective study to model particulate mechanism sand granular assemblies with different bonding conditions and examine effects parameters such as stress level cavity size ...
