The aetiology of this ' universal and distressing complaint' which is very common in India is variable and need not be discussed in detail, though heredity, constipation, sedentary habits, child-bearing, middle age and drastic methods of cleaning the anus are all important factors, while in later life carcinoma of the rectum and enlarged prostate must never be forgotten. On looking at a patient...

We propose a variation of Wythoff’s game on three piles of tokens, in the sense that the losing positions can be derived from the Tribonacci word instead of the Fibonacci word for the two piles game. Thanks to the corresponding exotic numeration system built on the Tribonacci sequence, deciding whether a game position is losing or not can be computed in polynomial time.

In ano-rectal disorders, incidences of piles and fissures are increasing in Indian population due to the western lifestyle. In surgery many methods are available for curing ano-rectal disorders but nowadays demand of Ayurveda and herbal preparation are increasing in society. In this study, Arshonyt forte tablet and ointment were tried in management of piles and fissure-in-ano. The study was ope...

Deep foundations are increasingly being used, not just to carry structural loads, but also to act as heat exchangers as part of a ground source heat pump system. Such foundations, often called energy piles, have the potential to make significant contributions towards meeting the heating and cooling demands of buildings, thus reducing the overall energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions d...

In “Bulgarian Solitaire”, a player divides a deck of n cards into piles. Each move consists of taking a card from each pile to form a single new pile. One is concerned only with how many piles there are of each size. Starting from any division into piles, one always reaches some cycle of partitions of n. Brandt proved that for n = 1+2+ · · ·+k, the cycle is just the single partition into piles ...

driven precast reinforced concrete piles (dprcp) is extensively used as a foundation for bridges constructed over canals in egypt in order to avoid the diversion of water canals. the objectives of this research include identifying the main activities of dprcp execution in the bridge-construction industry in egypt and the risk factors affecting them. in addition, assessment of the effects of the...

We describe an implementation that has users ‘flick’ notes, images, audio, and video files into piles beyond the screen of the PDA. This scheme allows the PDA user to keep information close at hand without sacrificing valuable screen real estate. It also obviates the need to browse complex file trees during a working session. Multiple workspaces can be maintained in persistent store. Each works...

Low strain pile integrity testing (LSPIT), due to its simplicity and low cost, is one of the most popular NDE methods used in pile foundation construction. While performing LSPIT in the field is generally quite simple and quick, determining the integrity of the test piles by analyzing and interpreting the test signals (reflectograms) is still a manual process performed by experienced experts on...

Most Codes such as API and BSI recommend Morison’s equation to estimate hydrodynamic forces on offshore structures. Significant differences exist among these Codes due to using different methods of analysis and estimation of force coefficients. In this paper, data from full scale tests have been used to evaluate random waves and uniform current actions on the smooth piles.&#10 Four time an...
