The mass absorption coefficients of tungsten and tantalum were measured with soft x-ray photons from 1450 eV to 2350 eV using an undulator source. This region includes the M3, M4, and M5 absorption edges. X-ray absorption fine structure was calculated within a real-space multiple scattering formalism; the predicted structure was observed for tungsten and to a lesser degree tantalum as well. Sep...

Recent work has shown the beneficial effects of a proprietary mixture of three non-digestible carbohydrates: konjac glucomannan, xanthan and alginate and these effects have been linked with a synergistic interaction observable with analytical ultracentrifugation, rheological and NMR measurements. These observations have been supported by fundamental dilute solution viscosity studies. Preparatio...

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to compare scapular kinematics during elevation phase of abduction, flexion, and scapular plane elevation phase between fifteen persons with shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS) and thirteen persons without it. Methods: Values of scapular kinematics include scapular superior and lateral translations, upward rotation, external rotation, and posterior t...

purpose : to report a new familial presentation of hypoplasia and absence of superior rectus in the form of unilateral monocular elevation deficiency case report : a 7-year-old boy was referred to our center (poostchi eye clinic) with a chief complaint of ocular misalignment in his right eye since birth. one of his siblings was a known case of unilateral monocular elevation deficiency and was o...

introduction snow is a kind of precipitation that is formed by the condensation of moist air mass and in the condition that temperature is below freezing point. although small areas of the world are mountainous regions, these small territories play an important role in the hydrological context of river basins. in some areas snow covers and glaciers supply drinking water. monitoring and forecast...

Setback in elevation of a structure is a special irregularity with considerable effect on its seismic performance. This paper addresses multistory Reinforced Concrete (RC) frame buildings, regular and irregular in elevation. Several multistory Reinforced Concrete Moment Resisting Frames (RCMRFs) with different types of setbacks, as well as the regular frames in elevation, are designed according...

Dalam pembangunan bendungan urugan kekuatan pondasi sangat penting. Pondasi harus dipastikan memiliki daya dukung yang kuat, maka dilakukan perbaikan dengan cara grouting. Terdapat dua metode saat pekerjaan grouting yaitu downstage dan upstage. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui mana memberikan keuntungan lebih banyak. Metode upstage biaya sebesar Rp2.704.279.000 waktu selama 2350 menit, se...

Although the Scandinavian Late Neolithic today is mainly defined by introduction of bifacial flint work, particularly daggers, agricultural intensification must also be seen as a part package, which developed under Bell Beaker-influence in Jutland around 2350 BCE. It argued that changes subsistence led to population increase, was background for spread new culture Scandinavia. A delay East Denma...
