Background: The present study aimed to evaluate the surge capability of Shahid Rajaee Trauma Hospital in Shiraz in response to a mass causality incident. Methods: This descriptive study was conducted in Shahid Rajaee Hospital in Shiraz in 2017. The Delphi technique was used in this study. For this purpose, three checklists were used for the emergency department, operating room, and intensive c...

In this study, an unsteady aerodynamic simulation is performed to realize the influences of platform surge motion on the aerodynamic performance of a high capacity offshore floating wind turbine. A dynamic model with pitch angle control system is utilized to propose a more realistic model of wind turbine and also achieve the rated condition of the rotor. The transient effect of platform surge m...

PURPOSE To assess the relationship between the kinetics of the serum CA15-3 level and the five-year disease-free survival rate of breast cancer patients. METHODS The subjects of this study, 297 women who were diagnosed with breast cancer, were the subset of patients operated on at Kosin University Gospel Hospital from January 2008 to December 2010. We evaluated the change of serum CA15-3 leve...

1 Overview SURGE (Scalable URL Reference Generator) is a WWW workload generator which is based on analytical models of WWW use. It relies on the fact that a great deal of prior work has been done in the analysis of WWW transactions, and that models for many of the important characteristics of WWW use have been developed. The goal of SURGE is to provide a scalable framework which, from the serve...

The destructive surge transient response is an expected phenomenon on a turbo charged automobile. Therefore a new intelligent controller to prevent the surge phenomenon to prolong the life cycle of modern turbo charged automobiles is proposed in this paper. In order to do so, the surge boundary for a particular turbo charger in a specific automobile must be determined first. A new systematic wa...

The ability of the arterial baroreflex to regulate blood pressure may influence the magnitude of the morning surge in blood pressure (MSBP). The aim was to investigate the relationships between sympathetic and cardiac baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) and the morning surge. Twenty-four hour ambulatory blood pressure was recorded in 14 young individuals. The morning surge was defined via the pre-awak...

Two experiments were performed to examine the temporal requirements of the estradiol signal for the GnRH and LH surges in the ewe. Hypophyseal portal and jugular blood (to measure GnRH and LH, respectively) were sampled from ewes set up in an artificial follicular phase model. After progesterone withdrawal to simulate luteolysis, circulating estradiol was raised to a preovulatory level by inser...

The current research deals with practical studies that explain to the Iraqi consumer multiple instances about phenomenon of water hammer which occur in pipeline operating pressure. It concern a study characteristics this and economically harmful same time. Multiple pipe fittings are used aimed reduce its work as alternatives manufactured arresters avoid sanitary installations, while did not hav...
