Background: Nutritional problems in premature newborns are of great importance for their development. In this regard, the neonatal positioning during and after feeding can have a significant effect on their nutritional tolerance. Therefore, the present study was conducted to compare the effect of two positions (i.e., prone and right lateral) on gastric residual volume ...

Residual stress arisen in fabrication process of Double-Ceramic-Layer Thermal Barrier Coating System (DCL-TBCs) has a significant effect on its quality and reliability. In this work, based on the practical fabrication process of DCL-TBCs and the force and moment equilibrium, a theoretical model was proposed at first to predict residual stress generation in its fabrication process, in which the ...

In this paper, a new model for resonance frequency of clamped circular corrugated diaphragm has been presented. First, an analytical analyzes has been carried out to derive mathematic expressions for mechanical sensitivity of diaphragm with residual stress. Next by using Rayleigh's method we present mathematical model to calculate the resonance frequency of corrugated diaphragm and investigate ...

deep rolling is a kind of mechanical surface treatments that can improve surface quality, dimensional accuracy and mechanical properties of the parts. compressive residual stresses generated by the process reduce the tensile stresses during loading into the workpiece. the distribution of residual stress induced by deep rolling can be influenced by rolling parameters; such as overlap of the roll...

using global free air gravity and topography data, first we have calculated a bouguer anomaly (ba) map for iranian plateau and then computed the residual isostasy anomaly map under the airy-heiskannen assumption. the term residual is used as to reflect the assumption of local isostatic compensation in contrast to a regional isostatic compensation. the value with which the gravity effect of the ...

Distortion and deformation of tubes during machining operations are very important. In this study, a tube used in magnetic drum separator under concentrated load (machining load) is considered. Using finite element simulation, deformities and their dependence on parameters such as the thickness of the tube and the place of concentrated force are observed and predicted. To compare and confirm th...

Background: Increased Gastric residual volume (GRV) is one of the common problems in ICU. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of cumin extract on gastric residual volume in patients with traumatic episodes hospitalized in ICU. Method: This double-blind randomized clinical trial was conducted on 60 patients traumatic hospitalized in ICU. Patients were randomly assigne...

abstract chromium is among the metals that has numerous applications in various industries due to its specifications. widespread use of this metal in different industries has unfortunately been accompanied by its increased release into environment and this entails numerous environmental hazards. in the first phase of the research that was conducted to evaluate the effect of the leather processi...

Indentation is a new method for estimating residual stress. The plastic behavior of the materials under study can affect indentation parameters and, thus, influences the results of residual stress measurement. In this paper, the effect of yield stress and work-hardening exponent on the accuracy of residual stress measurements in steels and aluminums was studied. Results showed that, for m...

Background and Aims: The safe, potent and effective live vaccines against Measles, Mumps and Rubella as important childhood diseases have been available for several decades. Several factors can affect the thermal stability of lyophilized vaccine. Methods: In this study, the effect of residual moisture on thermal stability of 61 batches of MMR vaccine was investigated using an accelerated ...
