In micro-electrical discharge machining (micro-EDM), dielectric plays a significant role during the machining process as different types of dielectrics have different chemical compositions, cooling rates and dielectric strengths. For this, dissimilar process responses are accounted when machining in EDM at micron level. The present paper investigates micro-EDM characteristics such as material r...

A case of pseudoaneurysm of right radial artery following transradial coronary angiography is reported. Adequate hemostasis is the key to prevention. Prolonged ultrasonography guided compression of neck of pseudoaneurysm or injection of procoagulants in the cavity of pseudoaneurysm can help non surgical closure.

Analysis of non-laminar flows in coarse alluvial beds has a wide range of applications in various civil engineering, oil and gas, and geology problems. Darcy equation is not valid to analyze transient and turbulent flows, so non-linear equations should be applied. Non-linear equations are classified into power and binomial equations. Binomial equation is more accurate in a wide range of velocit...

central retinal vein occlusion (crvo) is the third most common blinding vascular retinal disorder. as there is no proven treatment for crvo, we performed this study to evaluate the effectiveness of radial optic neurotomy (ron) on visual acuity in eyes with crvo. this study was designed as an interventional case series. pars plana vitrectomy with ron was performed in 18 eyes of 16 patients with ...

in this article, we apply the multiquadric radial basis function (rbf) interpo-lation method for nding the numerical approximation of traveling wave solu-tions of the kawahara equation. the scheme is based on the crank-nicolsonformulation for space derivative. the performance of the method is shown innumerical examples.

we compare performance of adaptive schemes which are based on radial-basis functions and kalman filters for fast extraction of auditory evoked potentials. moreover, we propose a new method based on evoked potential modeling in the kalman filter framework, which can improve the accuracy compared to the existing methods. simulation results show that adaptive schemes and the kalman method are not ...

instruction: measurement of brachial artery diameter variation by ultrasound methods has commonly been used to test the endothelial function. it is known that the artery diameter is increased by flow stimulation. therefore in the present study, the effect of external obstruction, as flow stimulation, on the radial strain of the brachial artery was assessed. also the biomechanical behavior of th...

the portfolio is a perfect combination of stock or assets, which an investor buys them. the objective of the portfolio is to divide the investment risk among several shares. using non-parametric dea and dea-r methods can be of great significance in estimating portfolio. in the present paper, the efficient portfolio is estimated by using non-radial dea and dea-r models. by proposing non-radial m...
