The Research was carried out to assess the browse intake and nutrient digestibility of grazing West African Dwarf (WAD) goats fed varying levels of Gmelina arborea leaves as supplement. Which produces appreciable amount of forage even at the peak of the dry season in the tropics, thereby ensuring all year round supply of follage and fodder. Thirty growing West Africa Dwarf (WAD) goats were used...

This study was carried out to evaluate testicular ultrasound as a breeding soundness examination (BSE) and biometric tool for West African dwarf (WAD) buck goats. Twelve bucks of proven breeding capability were selected for this purpose. Scrotal circumferences of these animals were measured using a flexible tape. Testicular ultrasound was carried out on the transverse and longitudinal planes on...

The female part of the population suffers more Whiplash Associated Disorders (WAD) in car crashes than males. Several studies have illustrated the need to consider the female population when developing and assessing the WAD prevention performance of advanced restraint systems in rear-end collisions. Presently only one crash test dummy is available, the average sized male BioRID. Recently a virt...

As the primary interface with the human body during rear impact, the automotive seat holds great promise for mitigation of Whiplash Associated Disorders (WAD). Recent research has chronicled the potential influence of both seat geometrical and constitutive properties on occupant dynamics and injury potential. Geometrical elements such as reduced head to head restraint, rearward offset, and incr...

In this work, the WAD Characteristics were improved by forming a concave‐convex scattering structure on organic planarization layer of large size AMOLED backplane TFT. By using slit mask scanner as VIA photosensitive poly‐imide film, semi‐transmissive area and contact hole made simultaneously without adding separate photo process to form structure. On top that, ITO/Ag/ITO anode pixel, EL cathod...

A wad of used chewing gum recovered from the scene of a burglary contained impressions of human teeth. Casts of these impressions displayed unique morphological characteristics which were found to show concordance with corresponding features present on casts of the posterior teeth of a suspect.

OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to define how many whiplash injuries occur in Finland in traffic accidents and the degree of severity of these injuries using the whiplash-associated disorders (WAD) classification presented by the Quebec Task Force, and to define possible long-term health effects caused by whiplash injury as well as the duration of whiplash-associated sick-leaves.
