an experimental study has been performed to investigate the flow physics of an under-expanded axisymmetric supersonic jet exhausting transversely from a flat plate into a subsonic compressible cross flow. the goal was to study the effects of boundary layer thickness ratio (δ/d) and the jet to free stream dynamic pressure ratio (j) on surface pressure. the resulting measurements distinctly show ...

Background: The virtual rise of blood pressure resulted from stress, that is observed in subjects that are tested in medical centers, can be oftenly corrected by holter. This phenomenon causes such persons not to response to the common anti blood pressure treatments (2). Materials and methods: This descriptive study was conducted 2006-2007 at the heart clinic of Shohadaye–Ashayer hospital in Kh...

TaN films with different N2 partial pressure were deposited on 304 stainless steel using the magnetron sputtering method. The effect of gas pressure on the mechanical property, morphology and phase structure of the films is investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), microhardness testing, friction coefficient measurements, and wear mechanism study. The XRD results c...

Introduction Pressure ulcers are tissue damages resulting from blood flow restriction, which occurs when the tissue is exposed to high pressure for a long period of time. These painful sores are common in patients and elderly, who spend extended periods of time in bed or wheelchair. In this study, a continuous pressure and temperature monitoring system was developed for pressure ulcer preventio...
