agunmukha river is an important water body having plentiful aquatic resources. the fisheries communities in the river are familiar with a diverse range of fishing gear and crafts to catch fish. therefore, the objectives of the present study were to explore fishing gear and fishing crafts, catch composition of the respective gearand identification of fish biodiversity of agunmukha river. a step ...

External mesh constriction of vein grafts was shown to mitigate intimal hyperplasia by lowering circumferential wall stress and increasing fluid shear stress. As under-constriction leaves vein segments unsupported and thus prone to neointimal proliferation while over-constriction may cause wall folding optimal mesh sizing holds a key to clinical success. Diameter fluctuations and the occurrence...

Mesh redistribution methods provide meshes with increased resolution in particular regions of interest, while requiring that the connectivity of the mesh remains fixed. Some state of the art methods attempt to explicitly prescribe both the local cell size and their alignment to features of the solution. However, the resulting problem is overdetermined, necessitating a compromise between these c...

The reconfigurable mesh (R-Mesh) was shown to be a very powerful model capable of extremely fast solutions to many problems. R-Mesh has a wide range of applications such as arithmetic problems, image processing and robotics. The 2D R-Mesh was shown to be able to solve the path planning problem very fast. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to compute a collision-free path between a source an...

Image retargeting aims to change the resolution and aspect ratio of an image to fit it into different devices. The key and most challenging issue for this task is how to balance the tradeoff between preserving the important contents and minimizing the visual distortions. In this paper, we present an effective image retargeting method called concepts-based mesh parameterization. Specifically, we...

OBJECTIVE Determine whether absorbable or nonabsorbable mesh in repair of large hiatus hernias reduces the risk of recurrence, compared with suture repair. BACKGROUND Repair of large hiatus hernia is associated with radiological recurrence rates of up to 30%, and to improve outcomes mesh repair has been recommended. Previous trials have shown less short-term recurrence with mesh, but adverse ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of the use of wire nets of various mesh sizes to enhance biosecurity in the poultry industry in Brazil by preventing other bird species from entering chicken houses. The Brazilian poultry industry is technologically advanced and employs updated technology. The current Brazilian guidelines recommend the use of 25.40 mm mesh. However, scientifi...

Many industrial structural mechanics applications require topologically similar meshes on topologically similar surfaces that might differ in shape or size. Rotationally symmetric mesh models requiring cyclic symmetry boundary conditions, contact meshes that connect large structural assemblies and automotive and space panels with minor structural variations are some common challenges. The prese...

Abstract Gillnets are widely used by small-scale fishermen to catch giant travelly Caranx ignobilis in coastal waters, the dominant fish caught small size not according market size. The parameters of gillnet such as mesh and hanging ratio can optimize target purpose this study was analyze effect gillnets on local marketable for C . fishing experiment carried out floating net cages at Ambon Fish...
