Abstract Objectives To determine the correlation between anthropometric indices and selected hemodynamic parameters among secondary adolescents aged 12–17 years. Results Our findings showed weak positive generally body surface area, neck circumference conicity index with (systolic blood pressure, diastolic resting pulse rate, mean arterial rate pressure product pressure). However, ponderosity i...

Incoloy 825 alloy is often used in calorifiers, propeller shafts, and tank vehicles owing to the improved resistance aqueous corrosion. The electrochemical micromachining process can be utilized machine such an engineering material higher precision lower tool wear. In present study, investigation was performed enhance of creating micro-holes using silver-coated copper electrodes. sodium nitrate...
