We prove five necessary and sufficient conditions for a convex quadrilateral to have an incircle that concerns angles or circles.

Intensity modulated tangential photon beams for breast cancer treatment can improve the dose uniformity significantly throughout the whole breast and reduce the dose to the lung and the heart comparing with the conventional technique. Before the first treatment, patient setup may require a change on the collimator angle and/or the couch angle based on the chest wall coverage according to the po...

The effect of cutting parameters and tool parameters on cutting forces and tool wear were investigated in high density fiberboard (HDF) peripheral up-milling using toughened ceramic cutting tools. The results showed that whether at low speed cutting or high speed cutting, the tangential forces Ft and normal forces Fr increased slowly with the increase of cutting length. The tangential forces Ft...

this paper presents the findings of experimental investigations into the effects of cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut and approach angle on the machinability of titanium (grade-5) alloy. also the comparison for the two different cutting materials inserts polycrystalline diamond (pcd) and cubic boron nitride (cbn) with similar tool geometry for similar machining parameters is also carried o...

This paper describes how tangential impact velocities can be incorporated into wellknown impact theories in deep and shallow water. Taking the deep and shallow flows in turn, it is shown how to link the normal impact Wagner and Korobkin theories to the tangential impact theories of planing and skimming respectively. An instability is revealed that limits the configurations that can be analysed ...

A new method for solution of the evolution of plane curves satisfying the geometric equation v= (x; k; ), where v is the normal velocity, k and are the curvature and tangential angle of a plane curve ⊂R2 at the point x∈ , is proposed. We derive a governing system of partial di erential equations for the curvature, tangential angle, local length and position vector of an evolving family of plane...

The capability of the Muon Tracking Detector to measure the radial and tangential angles of muons in extensive air showers, in combination with the shower direction as determined by the scintillator array of KASCADE experiment, has been investigated. Due to different characteristics in shower development of light and heavy primary particles the radial angle is sensitive to the mass of them. For...
