ebstein anomaly is characterized by apical displacement of the septal and posterior tricuspid valve leaflets, leading to atrialization of the right ventricle and could be diagnosed in a routine transthoracic echocardiography exam. we reported a young man with right sided heart failure symptoms who was found to have biventricular failure with suspected apical displacement of septal leaflet of tr...

b = vortex spacing l = lateral displacement N = Brunt–Väisälä frequency q = root-mean-square turbulence velocity t = time u = axial velocity v = lateral velocity, vertical displacement V = aircraft ground speed w = descent speed, vertical wind velocity x = axial coordinate y = spanwise coordinate z = vertical coordinate = circulation = eddy dissipation rate = potential temperature = standard de...

We report the experimental demonstration of spatial nonlinear beam displacement caused by an interface between periodically modulated and uniform quadratic nonlinearity. We observe intensity- and phase-mismatch-dependent spatial beam displacement at 1548 nm in lithium niobate waveguides. The device has the potential to provide a soliton-emission-based, ultrafast all-optical switch.

Using single-molecule fluorescence imaging, we track Brownian motion perpendicular to the contour of tightly entangled F-actin filaments and extract the confining potential. The chain localization presents a small-displacement Hookean regime followed by a large amplitude regime where the effective restoring force is independent of displacement. The implied heterogeneity characterized by a distr...

Career disorder and economic distress have been identified as potential causes of the observed decline in social participation in the U.S. We examine the causal effect of job displacement, a career disorder-producing event that is associated with subsequent socioeconomic and psychological decline, on social participation. Using more than 45 years of panel data from the Wisconsin Longitudinal St...

magnetic field effects on the elastic response of polymeric piezoelectric cylinder reinforced with carbon nanotubes (cnts) is studied. the cylinder is subjected to internal pressure, a constant electric potential difference at the inner and outer surfaces, thermal and magnetic fields. the mori-tanaka model is used for obtaining the equivalent material properties of the cylinder. based on the ch...

This analysis of data from the Displaced Workers Surveys suggests that between the periods 1983–87 and 1993–97, although the likelihood of involuntary job loss declined among most age groups, including older workers, it rose for middle-aged and older workers relative to younger workers. Three potential explanations for this shift the authors investigate are changes in educational attainment, ch...

The aim of the present study was to assess metabolic changes occurring in Holstein cows with left or right abomasal displacement. Total sialic acid (TSA) values of the left abomasal displacement (LDA) group were elevated significantly (p < 0.0001) as compared to the controls. In the LDA group, serum ceruloplasmin (CPN) and aspartate transaminase (AST) levels were increased significantly (p < 0....

An analysis is presented of the displacement of potential recorded when one microelectrode is used both to apply current to and record potential from a spherical cell. There are three significant components of the displacement in potential: a component produced inside the microelectrode, a time-independent component representing the spatially nonuniform flow of current in the immediate vicinity...

Despite the widespread use of current-source density (CSD) analysis of extracellular potential recordings in the brain, the physical mechanisms responsible for the generation of the signal are still debated. While the extracellular potential is thought to be exclusively generated by the transmembrane currents, recent studies suggest that extracellular diffusive, advective and displacement curre...
