Initiative: The Tygerberg Children's Hospital and Rotary Telemedicine Project in South Africa links specialists from Tygerberg Hospital to doctors at regional community or "district" hospitals to improve healthcare in rural areas. The initiative has assembled its own telemedicine system using off-the-shelf computer equipment and software that is more affordable than commercial telemedicine syst...

A helicopter is not possessed of an ability to fly fast compared with fixed-wing counterparts. This is a result of considerations with the main rotor. The main rotor moves in a direction very close to its plane of rotation which naturally divides it into two halves which operate under different aerodynamic conditions. One side (called the advancing side) has the rotation and translation velocit...

The angular error of indexing table on machine tool is measured using new developed measuring device. The measuring techniques, which have been reviewed in this paper, are currently available in manufacturing engineering to calibrate the angle measurement. The new developed measuring device using 6 points kinematic concept and employing ball and vee grooves is used to calibrate angle errors of ...

AIM The aim of this study was to measure the increase in root canal surface area and canal transportation after biomechanical preparation at 1, 3, and 5 mm short of the apex with three different rotary systems in both continuous rotary and reciprocating rotary motions. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty freshly extracted human mandibular molars with mesial root canal curvatures between 20° and 30° w...
