Identification Of Unbalanced Forces And Foundation Parameters Of Rotating Machines From Vibration Measurements, Nalitolela G Dec 2008

Identification Of Unbalanced Forces And Foundation Parameters Of Rotating Machines From Vibration Measurements, Nalitolela G

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET)

A technique is described to use measured vibration data of a rotating machine and its foundation to identify unbalanced forces, stiffness and damping parameters of the mountings, and the parameters of the foundation. It is based on an idealisation treating the rotor, the machine structure and the foundation as rigid masses supported by springs and dampers. Operational vibration data of the machine and its foundation before and after the rotating unbalanced forces are perturbed by adding unbalanced mass to the rotor are used in the identification procedure. Once the parameters are identified, dynamic forces transmitted to the foundation can be …

An Equation For Estimating The (R) Usle Slope Steepness Factors, Mathew Mulemgera Dec 2008

An Equation For Estimating The (R) Usle Slope Steepness Factors, Mathew Mulemgera

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET)

Abstract Currently three equations are used for calculating slope steepness factor for the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE); one for slopes less than nine percent, the second for slopes equal or greater than nine percent, and the third equation that has been proposed for use in China for slopes equal or greater than 17 %. The three equations have linear relationships between slope steepness factor, S and the sine of the slope angle, θ. The three equations under predict the factor, S when used on slope steepness beyond the data sets used to develop them. In addressing this problem …


Rehabilitation And Prognosis Of Childhood Arterial Ischemic Stroke: A Casereport, Chia-Huang Dai, Wei-Jang Yen, Ta-Shen Kuan, Chang-Zern Hong Dec 2008

Rehabilitation And Prognosis Of Childhood Arterial Ischemic Stroke: A Casereport, Chia-Huang Dai, Wei-Jang Yen, Ta-Shen Kuan, Chang-Zern Hong

Rehabilitation Practice and Science

The incidence of ischemic stroke in childhood is two to 13 per 100,000 children per year. Although the incidence is much lower than adults, strokes in children not only cause a large number of deaths, but also induce significant disabilities. Because childhood ischemic strokes are rare, multi center, controlled trials should be performed to provide evidence based data related to effectiveness of medical treatment and rehabilitation. Current studies on the management of stroke in children are mainly based on casereports, uncontrolled trials, or are adapted from adult literature.An eleven-year-old, obese boy presented to the Emergency Department with an initial presentation …


Rehabilitation In A Patient With Delayed Post-Hypoxic Encephalopathy: A Casereport, Yao-Jen Chen, Su-Ju Tsai, Yueh-Lin Tsai Dec 2008

Rehabilitation In A Patient With Delayed Post-Hypoxic Encephalopathy: A Casereport, Yao-Jen Chen, Su-Ju Tsai, Yueh-Lin Tsai

Rehabilitation Practice and Science

Carbon monoxide poisoning from accidents or suicide attempts often result in delayed post-hypoxic encephalopathy. Patients with delayed post-hypoxic encephalopathy typically present with recurrent apathy, confusion, agitation, and/or progressive neurological deficits, despite apparent transient recovery. Autopsy reports often reveal diffuse demyelination of subcortical white matter, but the exact pathogenesis is not clear. While comprehensive physical examination and history taking is necessary in diagnosing delayed post-hypoxic encephalopathy, magnetic resonance imaging can be very helpful in the diagnostic work-up. Rehabilitation for severe post-hypoxic encephalopathy can prevent complications such as immobilization and can improve patients' functional status.We report the history, diagnosis, and rehabilitative outcome …

The Cost-Effectiveness Analysis Between Outreach And Hospital Rehabilitation Models, Wei-Ni Chou, Shu-Yen Huang, Shu-Chuan Jennifer Yeh, Hing-Man Wu, Ming-Yang Koe, Yi-Ru Chen

Rehabilitation Practice and Science

Hospitals and clinics are usually the places where patients receive medicare. However, it is extremely inconvenient for the elderly to frequently go between the homes and hospitals/clinics for long-term medicare. With doctor-served home care, the accessibility of medical treatment would increase; the risk of trauma or infection from traveling in-between would be avoided; more prompt and timely treatment-offered effectiveness would rise. However, there has been no study on the difference between the cost effectiveness of outreach versus hospital rehabilitation. Thence, the peculiarity of the outreach rehabilitation regarding the physiatrists providing medical services and the physical therapists and occupational therapists offering …


Ultrasonographic Features Of Schwannoma Of The Lower Limb: Two Casereports, Hsiao-Wei Lin, Jeng-Yi Shieh, Tyng-Guey Wang, Wen-Shiang Chen, Chung-Li Wang, Yen-Ho Wang Dec 2008

Ultrasonographic Features Of Schwannoma Of The Lower Limb: Two Casereports, Hsiao-Wei Lin, Jeng-Yi Shieh, Tyng-Guey Wang, Wen-Shiang Chen, Chung-Li Wang, Yen-Ho Wang

Rehabilitation Practice and Science

Schwannoma is a benign encapsulated nerve sheath tumor. It typically develops in middle age with unknown cause and usually involves spinal root and peripheral nerves. We report two cases of schwannoma presenting as palpable mass over lower limbs. Both masses had heterogeneous hypoechogenicity, faint posterior enhancement, and were located eccentric to a nerve fascicle. Preoperative sonography revealed both patients had nerve tumors derived from nerve fascicles. These cases illustrate how sonographic information about the relationship between mass and surrounding structures can facilitate surgical planning.

Spontaneous Spinal Epidural Hemorrhage With Shoulder And Neck Pain As Initial Presentation: A Casereport, Yu-Min Kuo, Wai-Keung Lee, Cheng-Chih Liao, Li-Rong Chen

Rehabilitation Practice and Science

Spontaneous spinal epidural hemorrhage is a very rare disease, with an annual incidence estimated at one per million. Emergency surgery is indicated for a good prognosis, without which the death rate would be higher. Although the initial symptoms of cervical, thoracic, and back pain make it difficult to differentiate spontaneous spinal epidural hemorrhage from other common disease with similar symptoms, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a highly sensitive diagnostic method.We report the case of a 22-year-old male patient who initially complained of pain over the left shoulder and left cervical area. After nine days, numbness was noted in his left …

Investigation Of Flatfoot Screening In Developmentally Delayed Children, Li-Chen Tung, Pei-Chi Hsiao, Willy Chou, Cheng-Cheng Hsu, Wen-Chih Lin, Isbel Tou

Rehabilitation Practice and Science

Flatfoot disease is caused by disappearance or collapse of the medial longitudinal arch of the foot. Most of patients with flatfoot disease have what is known as ”flexible flatfoot”. Flatfoot in developmentally delayed children, however, is due to muscle weakness of lower limbs, which leads to disproportionate muscle growth or joint contracture. A study conducted by Chii-Jeng Lin in 2001 indicated that flat-footedness may influence gait, single-foot standing, and jumping ability. The author considered that flat-footedness was not only a problem in skeletal structure but that it may also be a consequence of dynamic foot function. Children with developmental delays …


The Dystopian Potential Of Corporate Law, D. Gordon Smith Dec 2008

The Dystopian Potential Of Corporate Law, D. Gordon Smith

Faculty Scholarship

The community of corporate law scholars in the United States is fragmented. One group, heavily influenced by economic analysis of corporations, is exploring the merits of increasing shareholder power vis-a-vis directors. Another group, animated by concern for social justice, is challenging the traditional, shareholder-centric view of corporate law, arguing instead for a model of stakeholder governance. The current disagreement within corporate law is as fundamental as in any area of law, and the debate is more heated than at any time since the New Deal. This paper is part of a debate on the audacious question, Can Corporate Law Save …
