This paper presents investigation effects of a sharp edged gust on aeroelastic behavior and time-domain response of a typical section model using Jones approximate aerodynamics for pure plunging motion. Flutter analysis has been done by using p and p-k methods developed for presented finite-state aerodynamic model for a typical section model (airfoil). Introduction of gust analysis as a linear ...

OBJECTIVE To detect and explain changing trends in incidence, case fatality rates, and mortality for unintentional injuries in the Netherlands for the years 1950 through 1995. METHODS Using national registry data, the authors analyzed trends in traffic injuries, occupational injuries, and home and leisure injuries. RESULTS Between 1950 and 1970, mortality from unintentional injuries rose, r...

The relationship of the clavigerite genera Diartiger Sharp and Microdiartiger Sawada is discussed, and the synonymy of the two genera proposed by Besuchet (1986) is followed. This results in two new combinations: D. thinhi (Nomura), comb. n. and D. songxiaobini (Yin & Li), comb. n. Two new species, D. dentatus Yin & Li, sp. n. and D. yaoluopingensis Yin & Li, sp. n. are described from Anhui, Ea...

The effects of sodium bicarbonate concentration, population density, and temperature on the maintenance of an outdoor monoculture of the cyanobacterium Spirulina platensis were studied. A clear response by Spirulina to the concentration of bicarbonate was evident, with 0.2M bicarbonate representing the lowest concentration in which a monoculture could be maintained. When the temperatures fell d...

Today telemedicine, or eHealth, is an important tool in everyday medical life. In all areas, from the preclinical to aftercare, significant improvements in communication structures have been seen in various eHealth options, which have had significant, positive effects on the quality of patient care in orthopedics and trauma surgery. Initially, there were several isolated solutions and many smal...

Translocation of a polymer chain through a narrow pore is explored using 3D explicit solvent dissipative particle dynamics simulation. We study the dependence of the translocation dynamics and translocation time τ on the chain length N, driving force magnitude E, and solvent quality. Two types of driving forces are considered: uniform hydrostatic force, which is applied equally to the chain and...
