This paper deals with the study and comparison of passive and active landing gear system of  the aircraft and dynamic responses due to runway irregularities while the aircraft is taxying. The dynamic load and vibration caused by the unevenness of runway will result in airframe fatigue, discomfort of passengers and the reduction of the pilot’s ability to control the aircraft. One of the objectiv...

abstract introduction: identifying factors which cause the high incidence of acl is of great importance .the anterior shear forces are the primary mechanism of load sustained on the acl. during exercise, the activity of muscles and position of lower limbs may increase or decrease the anterior shear force. the purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between the activity level of...

the bender-gestalt test was given to thirty mentally-retarded psychiatric patients. the mean, standard deviation, and standard error were 56.73, 26.25, and 4.80 respectively. rotation was the most frequent major deviation which occurred in all the designs. design # 7 was the most difficult one to be reproduced in the sample. this design by itself, was subject to 47% of distortion, 79% of omissi...

conclusions the mgap scoring system can be used as an appropriate scoring system to predict mortality in triage trauma patients. results patients were divided into three groups : scores of less than 18, 18 - 22 and greater than 22; in which the mortality rates were 75.2%, 9.5% and 0.1%, respectively (p < 0.0001). the best cut-off point was 22 in our study, and the mgap scoring system had 93.7% ...
