A non-iterative method is proposed to evaluate surface tension and contact angle simultaneously from a sessile drop observation in gravity using two universal figures. theory of the used assuming an axisymmetric profile drop. Numerical calculation carried out prepare The first one figures relation between normalized curvature at top geometry ratio height radius point on surface. second point. p...

background: pulmonary complications of radiation to breast are inevitable, while its incidence and severity are not clear. one of the methods to assess pulmonary complications is spirometry. the influence of radiotherapy on pulmonary function test and the factors affecting it have been assessed in this study. methods: breast cancer patients with stage ii and iii (based on tnm staging), underwen...

Objective—Transfer of the coronary arteries is crucial during the arterial switch operation for transposition, but little attention has been paid to the position of their orifices relative to the valvar sinuses. The objective of this study was to determine the factors which are important for eVective transfer and to determine potential surgical significance. Design—Morphological and clinical st...

In this paper, an analytical method for noncircular shape extrusion is presented. Using this method, non-linear deformation field can be described with Hermit cubic spline which is prescribed by the boundary conditions of the die at its entryand exit. The upper bound method has been used to obtain optimum coefficient of the tangential boundary conditions. The results show that the optimum tange...

To probe the microscopic balance of forces close to a moving contact line, the boundary conditions around viscous drops sliding down an inclined plane are investigated. At first, the variation of the contact angle as a function of the scale of analysis is discussed. The dynamic contact angle is measured at a scale of 6 mum all around sliding drops for different volumes and speeds. We show that ...

Precise peripheral ocular measurements have become important in vision research. These measurements are influenced by the shape and position of the peripherally observed entrance pupil. A long-held assumption is that its apparent shape is elliptical and is optically centered in its position. Our three-dimensional model shows that as viewing angle increases, the entrance pupil moves forward, til...

This article addresses the thermoelastic interaction due to inclined load on a homogeneous isotropic half-space in context of two-temperature generalized theory of thermoelasticity with dual-phase-lags. It is assumed that the inclined load is a linear combination of both normal and tangential loads. The governing equations are solved by using the normal mode analysis. The variations of the disp...
