Many parameters affect the behavior of tall buildings under seismic loads, some which are main shock-after shock records and using lateral load resistance systems in reinforced concrete buildings. End shear walls a kind walls, connecting their end This study was conducted on two 30-story structures, were subjected to sequences far fault analyzed by nonlinear time history analysis. The results i...

Patterns formed by nano/microparticles in colloidal systems are of great interest and importance from both scientific technological points view. Magnetic colloids particularly interesting since the structures magnetic particles can be quite easily controlled external fields. In this study, we investigate growth process clusters paramagnetic microparticles a fluctuating field composed direct cur...

D eep neck space infections are a potential complication of odontogenic infection, but rarely have been reported in children. In a recent study, 113 pediatric patients were hospitalized with maxillofacial infections with 32 from dental sources; however, the extension of these infections into deep neck spaces was not documented. 1 In a similar study of 67 children with abscess of the head and ne...

background: endodontic leakage research focus mainly on the quality of the apical seal of the root canal system and the newly introduced resilon/epiphany system claim to be superior to gutta-percha in respect to obturation procedure. the aim of this study is to evaluate the root canal obturation completed by resilon/epiphany system. materials and methods: a total of 42 teeth were selected and w...

Historic constructions are common in Europe, but natural hazards can produce significant damage. Shear reinforcement of historic walls, especially seismic areas, is often necessary and new retrofitting methods have recently been proposed to restore or increase the lateral capacity shear walls. In this paper combined use cross-laminated timber panels steel wire ropes reinforce rubble stone mason...

The left ventricle is cone shaped. Although the limits are imprecise it can be divided, except at the apex, into four walls, named classically septal, anterior, lateral, and inferoposterior (Figure 2). The basal part of the inferoposterior wall often branches upward and then becomes really posterior and for that reason it was named the posterior wall. For more than 60 years, the terms posterior...

We present a method of computing Casimir forces for arbitrary geometries, with any desired accuracy, that can directly exploit the efficiency of standard numerical-electromagnetism techniques. Using the simplest possible finite-difference implementation of this approach, we obtain both agreement with past results for cylinder-plate geometries, and also present results for new geometries. In par...

A large number of researchers have studied the behavior of infilled frames. It is evident through their studies that infill walls can provide both an economic and practical means for the lateral stability of framed structures and a viable alternative for retrofitting existing structures to resist seismic, wind, and blast loads. Despite this, there is reluctance from the engineering community to...

Rechecking the position of the nasogastric tube after oropharyngeal suction is not common practice. Our patient deteriorated after oropharyngeal suction was performed, whilst nasogastric feeding continued. We suggest that nasogastric feeding should be stopped during oropharyngeal suction and the tube position should be checked every time an oropharyngeal suction is performed.
