The aim of the study was to examine the deformation modes and also degradation of an adhesively bonded rectangular cross section beam used in the automotive body structure. The study included: (1) performing new experimental investigations on the three-point bend behavior of a rectangular cross section beam made by adhesive bonding method. (2) developing a finite element (FE) model to predict t...

Abstract: A five-year-old, male Great Dane was referred to the Veterinary Hospital of Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman for treatment of a painful swelling mass at the left upper part of the chest wall, between 9th till 12th intercostals space. Lethargy, depression, vomiting and abdominal pain in palpation of the mass were the main clinical observation with no response to antibiotic and anti-...

In the present study, mixed convection laminar flow around an adiabatic body in a Lid-driven enclosure filled with nanofluid using variable thermal conductivity and variable viscosity is numerically investigated. The fluid around the body in the enclosure is a water- based nanofluid containing Al2O3 nanoparticles. The Vertical enclosure’s walls are maintained at constant cold temperature an...

self-mutilation is defined as intentional damaging of the body without intent to die.  this behavior is observed among groups of psychiatric patients particularly schizophrenics.  in these patients, self-mutilative behavior may have unusual manifestations related to delusion and hallucination.  in this article, an unusual form of self-mutilation of a paranoid schizophrenic patient is reported. ...

One of the reasons of weight loss and poor performance in horses is decrease in food intake. Oral cavity problems can cause malfunctions in prehension and deglutition resulting in dysphagia. There are few published reports about a metallic foreign body disorders in the oral cavity of horses due to an important role of their flexible lip and incisor teeth in food selection and prehension. This r...
