Context. SN 1987A in the Large Magellanic Cloud is close enough for a study of the very late time evolution of a supernova and its transition to a supernova remnant. Nearly two decades after explosion we are witnessing the supernova shock wave engaging the inner circumstellar ring, which had been fluorescing since being ionised by the soft X-ray flash from shock breakout. Aims. We follow the in...

The article presents the amplitude measurement used in the diagnosis of hydraulic fluid leakage from the shock absorbers of passenger cars. Measures used to assess the distribution of the peak using the free vibration method with force extortion. To verify the results of study the FFT were used. In particular illustration of a random vibroacoustic process, acceleration of sprung mass for front ...

INTRODUCTION Although regulatory T lymphocytes (Tregs) have a pivotal role in preventing autoimmune diseases and limiting chronic inflammatory conditions, they may also block beneficial immune responses by preventing sterilizing immunity to certain pathogens. METHODS To determine whether naturally occurring Treg cells have a role in inflammatory response and outcome during shock state we cond...

Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) has become an important tool in modern flowfield diagnostics, in particular for subsonic flows. PIV systems have also been used to measure supersonic flows in supersonic wind tunnels, but only recently it has been shown that PIV can also be a valuable tool for high-speed supersonic flows in a shock tunnel (Haertig et al., 2001). At the ISL shock tunnel a PIV sys...

INTRODUCTION Culture shock or cultural adaptation is a significant issue confronting non-Indigenous health professionals working in remote Indigenous communities in Australia. This article is presented in two parts. The first part provides a thorough background in the theory of culture shock and cultural adaptation, and a comprehensive analysis of the consequences, causes, and current issues ar...

The present study was a protocol for investigation of the effect of acetaminophen (i.p.) on pain induced by electrical stimulation. We used tail shock vocalization (TSV) test for measurement of the pain. In this test, the animals were restrained and stimulated by two electrode implanted on the middle of the animal’s tail. The latency from stimulation of the tail till vocalization of the animal ...

Although extensive data on the metabolic response to experimental hemorrhagic shock are available' and although some, though less, data are available on changes in tissue oxygen tension during experimental hemorrhagic shock,'" there are no data relating changes in tissue oxygen tension to changes in tissue metabolism during hemorrhagic shock. The present study was instituted to determine the ef...

We experimentally study quasi-two-dimensional dilute granular flow around intruders whose shape, size, and relative impact speed are systematically varied. Direct measurement of the flow field reveals that three in-principle independent measurements of the nonuniformity of the flow field are in fact all linearly related: (1) granular temperature, (2) flow-field divergence, and (3) shear-strain ...
