The microtubes are important structures in nano electromechanical system .in this study a nonlocal model is presented to investigate the static torsion behavior of microtubes made of bi-directional factionally graded material (BDFGM) subjected to a longitudinal magnetic field. Mechanical properties of BDFGM microtube varies in the radial and longitudinal direction according to an arbitrary func...

INTRODUCTION: Mechanical analogue composite bone models have been used as cadaveric bone substitutes in a wide variety of biomechanical tests. The objective of this study was to validate the diaphyseal structural properties in terms of flexural rigidity, ultimate bending strength, axial stiffness, ultimate compression strength, ultimate torsional strength, torque angle at ultimate torsional str...

The capacity for short-term adaptation is a well-established property of the horizontal (H) and vertical (V) components of saccades. It allows these directional components, which clearly serve the goal of foveation, to maintain their precision even under changing circumstances. Torsional (T) saccade components, on the other hand, which deal with the orientation of the target on the fovea, have ...

A COMPARISON OF TORSIONAL STRESS PROPERTIES OF THREE DIFFERENT NICKEL-TITANIUM FILES WITH SIMILAR CROSS-SECTIONAL DESIGN Reid C. Wycoff D.D.S. Marquette University, 2012 The purpose of this study was to compare the in vitro torsional stress characteristics of Twisted Files (SybronEndo, Orange, CA) with two milled files of similar cross section, EndoSequence (Brasseler USA, Savannah, GA) and Pro...

PURPOSE To compare torsional versus combined torsional and conventional ultrasound modes in hard cataract surgery regarding ultrasound energy and time and effect on corneal endothelium. SETTINGS Kasr El Aini hospital, Cairo University, and International Eye Hospital, Cairo, Egypt. METHODOLOGY Ninety-eight eyes of 63 patients were enrolled in this prospective comparative randomized masked cl...

PURPOSE Exotropia in congenital homonymous hemianopia has been reported to provide field expansion that is more useful when accompanied with harmonious anomalous retinal correspondence (HARC). Torsional strabismus with HARC provides a similar functional advantage. In a subject with hemianopia demonstrating a field expansion consistent with torsion, we documented torsional strabismus and torsion...

PURPOSE To analyze temperature increases and identify potential sources of heat generated when sleeved and sleeveless phacoemulsification probes were operated in axial and torsional modes using the Infiniti Vision System with the Ozil torsional handpiece. SETTING Phacodynamics Laboratory, Pasteur Ophthalmic Clinic, Santiago, Chile. DESIGN Experimental study. METHODS Two computer-controlle...
