We propose a novel principle of velocity mass analysis of a micro-particle using magnetophoretic force. The new method can determine the mass of a particle from its magnetophoretic velocity change in a high magnetic field gradient in a low viscous medium such as air. In the present study, the new principle was demonstrated by the magnetophoretic acceleration of an aqueous manganese(II) chloride...

MORTIMER, J. THOMAS, ROBERT MAGNUSSON, AND INGEMAR PETERSON. Conduction velocity in ischemic muscle: effect or2 EMG frequency spectrum. Am. J. Physiol. 219(5): 1324-1329. 1970.-The action-potential conduction velocity in Yed” and “white” muscles was studied. The study was made by recording the conduction times during and following periods of repeated contractions while the muscle was ischemic o...

In gravity below Earth-normal, a person should be able to take higher leaps in running. We asked 10 subjects to run on a treadmill in five levels of simulated reduced gravity and optically tracked centre-of-mass kinematics. Subjects consistently reduced ballistic height compared with running in normal gravity. We explain this trend by considering the vertical take-off velocity (defined as maxim...

Age related changes in the dynamics of accommodation (far to near focus) and disaccommodation (near to far focus) are reported in this study. Dynamic responses to step stimulus demands from 1D to 6D, in 1D steps, were recorded with a PowerRefractor in 66 subjects in the age range 14-45 years. The accommodative and disaccommodative responses were fit with exponential functions to calculate respo...

The blue light entopic phenomenon was used to measure retinal blood flow in 87 diabetics and 10 normal controls in a longitudinal study. The time interval between the initial and final studies was 21-39 months (mean 31.4). The retinal blood flow velocity did not change in the 10 subjects in the control group nor in those nine patients with no retinopathy, all but one of whom remained free of re...

Metrics that synthesize the complex effects of climate change are essential tools for mapping future threats to biodiversity and predicting which species are likely to adapt in place to new climatic conditions, disperse and establish in areas with newly suitable climate, or face the prospect of extirpation. The most commonly used of such metrics is the velocity of climate change, which estimate...

Autonomic regulation of blood flow through the fetal ductus venosus has been suggested, but the existence of a sphincter at the ductal entrance in human fetuses has yet to be established. In this paper two cases of apparent ductus venosus dilatation in two growth-restricted human fetuses are reported. Prolonged ultrasonographic analysis (45 min) showed rapid and substantial changes (>80%) of du...

A random dot pattern moved at a velocity V1. The velocity then increased or decreased abruptly to another value V2 for some time and again returned to V1. The temporal threshold, i.e. the duration of V2 that was necessary to detect the change was measured. Thresholds for the detection of the same velocity increment, V2 = 2 x V1, were shorter when the baseline velocity V1 increased from 1 to 8 d...

according to flexibility of pneumatic conveying systems with respect to other types of transmission systems, this system has wide application in industry and agriculture processes. one important application of this system is in the loading and unloading tankers and powdery bulk materials such as trucks carrying cement, plaster and sand. conveying efficiency is associated with pressure, which in...

Introduction: Nitroglycerin is a fast-acting drug that rapidly dilates coronary arteries and thus increases blood flow to these vessels, and increases the blood flow through the lateral vessels to low blood areas. It also reduces both end diastolic pressure and volume of the left ventricular. However, the effect of nitroglycerin on the circulation hemodynamic is not known. Caro...
