prostaglandin £j (pge-^) and indomethacin, a nonstroidal antiinflammatory drug, were separately administered during ortliodontic tooth movement in rats. at the beginning, an orthodontic appliance was placed and activated in male albinos rats. in tlie first examination, the experimental group received submucosal injections of pge-y (10 mg/kg/day) near the first maxillary riglit molars, and alcoh...

conclusions the study revealed the significance of anthropometric variables related to heading, such as age and head perimeter. therefore, it was concluded that these variables should be considered when teaching and practicing the heading technique with players of different ages and anthropometric sizes. results significant correlations existed between the force exerted on the head during headi...

abstractin this study, the tensile force requirement, to separate the grain paddy was measured. the velocities of grain paddy it 100, 200, 300, 400, and 500 mm/min, and force requirement to failure stem at 100, 300, and 500 mm/min velocities was measured by using instron device. the data was analyzed using a completely randomized design. the results showed that velocity had a significant effect...

in the permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (pmlsm), force ripple is harmful, useless and disturbing. the force ripple is basically composed of two components: detent force and mutual force ripple. this force is influenced by the geometric parameters of the permanent magnet (pm) motors; such as width, thickness and length of the magnet poles, length and thickness of the rotor and stator, a...

an ideal orthodontic force system should exert continuous light force. thus, many efforts have been made to improve the memory characteristics of elastomeric chains. the aim of this study was to compare elastomeric chains (ecs) claimed by their manufacturers to offer high memory with traditional ones according to their force-extension diagrams.in this in-vitro study, ecs were divided into six g...

Background: To clarify the mechanism of sperm penetration through the zona pellucida, the flagellar force generated by a hyperactivated spermatozoon was evaluated using the resistive force theory applied to the hyperactivated flagellar waves that were obtained from the mammalian spermatozoa. Materials and Methods: The hydrodynamic calculation of the flagellar force of the activated (non-hyperac...

introduction: the ability to accurately measure forces produced by orthodontic appliances during orthodontic treatment is desirable. the aim of the present study was to compare forces measured by mechanical formulae designed with a software program and those experimentally measured by a dynamometer to find a scientific way to determine the exact amount of activation needed for applying a force ...

in this paper, design and construction of a tactile sensor for measuring contact-force is presented. mechanism of measuring contact-force in this tactile sensor is based on impedance changing of piezoelectric crystal and voltage of different points in circuit as a result of applying force on the crystal. by considering a specific point in the circuit and recording the changes of its voltage, ma...

scheduling is to determine the priorities or arrange the activities to meet the needs, limitations and certain goals. because the time is always a limited resource, all activities should be scheduled to use optimally and certainly the resource. gravitational force algorithm, like other evolutionary algorithms, is inspired by nature. the effect of the gravity on the objects reciprocally and to a...
