Gaseous detonation propagation in a thin channel with regularly spaced cylindrical obstacles was investigated experimentally and numerically. The wave substantial velocity deficits is observed the details of its mechanism are described based on experimental measurements luminosity pressure three-dimensional flow fields obtained by numerical simulations. Both experiments simulations indicate sig...

"Blockade" of the RES by thorotrast so lowered the tolerance of hemorrhagic shock in rabbits and dogs that a reversible degree of hemorrhagic shock became irreversible. This was true not only in normal rabbits, but in rabbits made resistant to hemorrhagic shock by producing resistance to endotoxins. Rabbits which had been pretreated with thorotrast and then subjected to hemorrhagic shock displa...
