in this paper, the static characteristics of two-lobe, three-lobe and four-lobe noncircular gas journal bearing systems are studied in detail. the reynold’s equation governing the noncircular gas bearing systems are analyzed by using radial basis functions (rbf). the solutions are obtained numerically by solving systems of algebraic equations. the equilibrium position of the rotor is obtaine...

1. The procerebral (PC) lobe of the terrestrial mollusk Limax maximus contains a highly interconnected network of local olfactory interneurons that receives ipsilateral axonal projections from superior and inferior noses. This network exhibits an approximately 0.7-Hz intrinsic oscillation in its local field potential (LFP). 2. Intracellular recordings show that the lobe contains at least two cl...

the occurrence of chatter vibrations in boring operation has a great influence in improving workpiece dimensional accuracy, surface quality and production efficiency. in this paper instability analysis of machining process is presented by dynamic model of boring machine. this model, which consists of machine tool’s structure, is provided by finite element method and ansys software. the model is...

Newer MRI methods can detect cerebral abnormalities not identified on routine imaging in patients with focal epilepsy. Correlation of MRI with histopathology is necessary to understand the basis of MRI abnormalities and subsequently predict histopathology from in vivo MRI. The aim of this study was to determine if particular quantitative MR parameters were associated with particular histologica...

BACKGROUND It is well known that the success of the radiomethabolic (131)I treatment of hyperthyroidism could depend on the absorbed dose to the thyroid. It is, thus, very important to calculate the individual radiation dose as accurately as possible for different masses of thyroid lobes. The aim of this work is to evaluate the influence of thyroid volume on the energy deposition from beta and ...

Over the past four years (1360-1364) we have surgically treated seven infants for lobar emphysema. The pathologic lesion in all patients was in upper lobe of the left lung. Respiratory distress and pneumonia are the cardinal symptoms of patients with this abnormality. Diagnosis is confirmed by chest x-ray. The treatment of choice is lobectomy of affected lobe. 

Background: Neonatal pneumopericardium (PPC) is a rare clinical condition usually associated with other air leak syndromes. It increases morbidity and mortality due to cardiac tamponade. Case report: A preterm male neonate weighing 1260 g was born with the gestational age of 28 weeks. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation was routinely performed without any medical therapy. The newborn was transferred ...

Ovine pulmonary adenocarcinoma (OPA) is a contagious and transmissible lung cancer of sheepresembling human bronchiolo-alveolar carcinoma. In the present study, lungs of 9400 sheep slaughtered inFars province, Iran were examined morphopathologically. The OPA was diagnosed in the lungs of 21(0.22%) out of 9400 sheep. Frequency of involvement of different lobes in the affected lungs was includeda...

Background: Epilepsy is considered as one of the most important disorders in neurology. Temporal lobe epilepsy is a form of epilepsy including two main types of mesial and lateral (neocortex). Objectives: Determination and comparison of electroencephalogram (EEG) pattern in the ictal and interictal phases of mesial and lateral temporal lobe epilepsy. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectiona...

We explore atmospheric escape from close-in exoplanets with the highest mass loss rates. First, we locate transition stellar X-ray and UV-driven to rapid Roche lobe overflow, which occurs once 10-100 nbar pressure level in atmosphere reaches lobe. Planets enter this regime when ratio of substellar radius polar along visible surface level, that aligns a constant potential, is X/Z~$\gtrsim$~1.2 f...
