The Prevalence Of Silicosis Among Iraqi Silica Quarrying Workers, Waleed Gh. Al-Tawil Dec 2006

The Prevalence Of Silicosis Among Iraqi Silica Quarrying Workers, Waleed Gh. Al-Tawil

Iraqi Postgraduate Medical Journal

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Silicosis is reported as the most prevalent, chronic and irreversible lung disease which is caused by the inhalation of respirable silica dusts and associated with prolonged exposures among workers dealing with. It is one of the oldest fibro-nodular, occupational, incurable lung disease caused by inhalation of dust containing free crystalline silica. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to assess the prevalence and risk factors for silicosis among workers exposed to freesilica. METHODS: In this cross –sectional study, we studied ninety male workers in the quarrying zone of silica in the IraqiWestern Desert. The workers were subjected to clinical interviews and …

Collapse Assessment Of Degrading Mdof Structures Under Seismic Excitations, Mouchir Chenouda, Ashraf Salah Eldin Ayoub Dec 2006

Collapse Assessment Of Degrading Mdof Structures Under Seismic Excitations, Mouchir Chenouda, Ashraf Salah Eldin Ayoub

Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

Seismic code provisions are now adopting performance-Based methodologies, where structures are designed to satisfy multiple performance objectives. Most codes rely on approximate methods to predict the desired seismic demand parameters. Most of these methods are based on simple SDOF models, and do not take into account neither MDOF nor degradation effects, which are major factors influencing structural behavior under earthquake excitations. More importantly, most of these models can not predict collapse explicitly under severe seismic loads. This study presents a newly developed model that incorporates degradation effects into seismic analysis of MDOF structures. a new energy-Based approach is used to …


A Study Of Diabetic Foot Ulcers In Relation To Depth , Location Of The Ulcer And Patient's, Age And Sex., Ryath S.Al-Hemedawi Dec 2006

A Study Of Diabetic Foot Ulcers In Relation To Depth , Location Of The Ulcer And Patient's, Age And Sex., Ryath S.Al-Hemedawi

Iraqi Postgraduate Medical Journal

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Over a nine months period, extending from October, 2002 through July 2003, microorganisms were isolated and identified from foot ulcer infections of diabetic patients. The foot ulcers were clinically identified as superficial (dry, wet) or deep ,the depth of both superficial (wet, dry) and deep foot ulcers in relation to location, patient age and sex were studied from 60 patients of surgical wards. METHODS: The depth of different diabetic foot ulcers were measured by sterile cotton tip applicator inserted from the surface to the deepest point of the ulcer base. RESULTS: It was demonstrated that the superficial ulcers …

Elastic Degradable Polyurethanes For Biomedical Applications, Changhong Zhang Dec 2006

Elastic Degradable Polyurethanes For Biomedical Applications, Changhong Zhang

All Theses

Several series of polyurethanes were synthesized with linear or crosslinked structures by using different synthesis routes. Two studies are mentioned: (1) the synthesis of degradable polyurethanes with linear structure and the investigation of the elasticity and cytophilicity of the materials as function of the chain extender, and (2) the synthesis and the investigation of the biocompatibility, degradation, hydrophilicity and mechanical properties of the polyurethane-based hydrogels with crosslinked structure.

Dancing Through Film Musicals: Narratives In Motion, Dara Phillips Dec 2006

Dancing Through Film Musicals: Narratives In Motion, Dara Phillips

Masters Theses

The purpose of this study was to discover if and how dance communicates vital plot and character information nonverbally. The example analyzed was the film Singin’ in the Rain. This thesis examined the six dance sequences in the film to determine if the dancing is an integral, powerful, and significant communicative addition to the film. Walter Fisher’s Narrative Paradigm was used in conjunction with Seymour Chatman’s concept of kernels and satellites to determine if the dances communicated significantly to the film’s viewers. The Narrative Paradigm, though loosely framed, provided the concepts of coherence and fidelity. These concepts helped determine if …
