A general method of deprojecting two-dimensional images to reconstruct the three dimensional structure of the projected object – specifically X-ray, Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) and gravitational lensing maps of rich clusters of galaxies – assuming axial symmetry (Zaroubi et al. 1998), is considered. Here we test the applicability of the method for realistic, numerically simulated galaxy clusters, v...

The aim of this study was to verify the relationship between the inclination of the coronoid process of the mandible, and electromyographic activity of the anterior part of the temporal muscle in skeletal Class I and II individuals. Forty-seven volunteers (mean age 24.5 +/- 3.9 years) were subdivided into two groups, according to angle ANB: Class I (n = 25) and II (n = 22). Two radiographic exa...

Experiments were conducted with PF-5052 liquid sprays impacting a 1.0 1.0 cm heated test surface at different inclination angles, flow rates, and subcoolings. Inclination angle had no noticeable effect on the single-phase or two-phase regions of the boiling curve. Maximum CHF was always achieved with the spray impinging normal to the test surface; increasing angle of inclination away from the n...

Our aim was to compare the degree of patellar descent and alteration in angle of the inclination of the tibial plateau in lateral closing-wedge and medial opening-wedge high tibial osteotomy (HTO) in 51 consecutive patients with osteoarthritis of the medial compartment and varus malalignment. Patellar height was measured by the Insall-Salvati (IS) and the Blackburne-Peel (BP) ratios. The tibial...

The development of slug $ow along two 10 m long inclined pipes (2–90◦ from the horizontal) with internal diameters of 0.024 and 0:054 m was measured by three optical 4ber probes. The probes were located in a measurement module at axial distances of 0:020 m between the 4ber tips. To measure the evolution of slug $ow, the module was placed at di6erent positions along the pipe. Instantaneous elong...

in this paper attempts have been done to create a mortar with relatively high uniaxial compressive strength (ucs), easy casting, high flexibility, instant hardening, low cost and easy availability. the main use of this material is to physically model the mechanical behavior of jointed rock-like blocks. the effect of four parameters such as joint roughness coefficient (jrc), bridge length (l), b...

  Background: The prevalence of hip dysplasia is 1 in 1000. Several pelvic osteotomy methods have been developed to prevent early osteoarthritis, such as triple osteotomy. In this study we are going to introduce our new technique that was done on 4 patients with favorable short-term results.   Methods: Four patients underwent triple osteotomy and fixation using a reconstruction plate and early ...
