Shoulder surgeons need to be aware of the critical size of the glenoid or humeral osseous defects seen in patients with anterior shoulder instability, since the considerable size of osseous defect is reported to cause postoperative instability. Biomechanical studies have identified the size of the osseous defect which affects stability. Since engagement always occurs between a Hill-Sachs lesion...

A maximum-likelihood yes-no procedure was used to measure minimum detectable gaps (MDGs) at 1 and 4 kHz using two track lengths (15 and 30 trials). Results from 11 normal listeners show no difference between MDGs for the two track lengths, and variability of the MDGs did not differ significantly for the track lengths. Results from simulations indicate that the variability of MDGs from real list...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW To provide updated information on recent developments within individual components of multimodal interventions to improve postoperative outcome (fast-track methodology). RECENT FINDINGS The value of the fast-track methodology to improve recovery and decrease hospital stay and morbidity has been firmly consolidated, especially in colorectal procedures. An increasing amount of...

This study aims to develop a simple-practical design procedure determine the appropriate size of turbine's outer radius for any given internal parameters according available flow rate through numerical calculation. The calculation is performed using python programming language by combining existing model Archimedes turbine, including power model, turbine capacity, and losses modeling, into proc...

Present needs in efficiency and integration drive research toward the miniaturization of power converters. Among latest components to achieve desired degree are cored micro-inductors that still one hardest devices optimize, due high number freedom degrees their fabrication. In this article, a comprehensive design procedure for these is presented. The proposed method makes it possible optimal de...

The paper proposes a control system with the brake and the steering for developing a driver assistance system. The purpose is to design a cruise control method to track the road geometry with a predefined velocity and guarantee the road stability of the vehicle simultaneously. An actuator selection method is developed in the control design, in which the actuator limits, energy requirements and ...
