introduction this study determines the effect of prehospital time and advanced trauma life support interventions for trauma patients transported to an our trauma center. materials and methods this study was a retrospective study of trauma victims presenting to a trauma center in central iran by emergency medical services (ems) and hospitalized for more than 24 hours. demographic and injury char...

The hybrid molten/solid In2O3 - 30-48 wt.% Bi2O3 oxide materials were studied with respect to their transport properties. The conductivities, oxygen ion transport numbers and oxygen permeation fluxes have been measured by using the four-probe DC, volumetric measurements of the faradaic efficiency and gas flow techniques, respectively. We show that the...

Bedload transport is an essential component of river dynamics and estimation of its rate is important to many aspects of river management. In this study, measured bedload by Helley- Smith sampler was used to estimate the bedload transport of Kurau River in Malaysia. An artificial neural network, genetic programming and a combination of genetic programming and a neural network were used to estim...

water quality prediction is a valuable tool for pollutant control in aquatic environments. a river system is selected and one-dimensional flow is assumed for the simulation of pollutant transport in this paper. advective and diffusive terms of transport equation are considered separately. different functions of advective transport are proposed and applied for a specified velocity on the discret...

objective: preterm infants are prone to intraventricular hemorrhage. they may suffer from significant morbidity and mortality particularly in those with high-grade hemorrhage. our objective was to determine the incidence of intraventricular hemorrhage in premature infants transported to a tertiary center compared with those delivered at the level iii facility.  methods: we evaluated all prematu...

the objective of this study was to review the literature on sperm transport in the mare. during this process the sperm cells must reach the oviducts in order to fertilize the oocyte, but before reaching this site it must go through the uterus that is a hostile environment at this moment since there is an inflammatory reaction in this location that aims to eliminate excess spermatozoa and bacter...

– One of the important applications of robots is in material handling and transport of various shaped objects. In cases where an object cannot be directly grasped by the robot gripper, and must be carried by a hook, it may be subject to undesirable swings during transport. This paper presents an analytical method for minimizing the oscillation of a suspended object during transport. This method...
