Monitoring tool wear is very important in machining industry as it may result in loss of dimensional accuracy and quality of finished product.This work includes the development of machine vision system for the direct measurement of flank wear of carbide cutting tool inserts.This system consists of a digital camera to capture the tool wear image, a
Abstract Background To systematically review the literature for methods to localize the genial tubercle as a means for performing an advancement of the genioglossus muscle.Methods PubMed, Google Scholar, CRISP, EMBASE, CINAHL, and Scopus were searched from inception through June 16, 2015.Results One hundred fifty-two articles were screened, and pow
We produced a microstructured, electroconductive and nano-functionalized drug eluting cardiac patch (MENDEP) designed to attract endogenous precursor cells, favor their differentiation and counteract adverse ventricular remodeling in situ.MENDEP showed mechanical read more anisotropy and biaxial strength comparable to porcine myocardium, reduced im
Mg / dea eyewear Ca ratios in foraminiferal tests are routinely used as paleotemperature proxies, but on long timescales, they also hold the potential to reconstruct past seawater Mg / Ca.The impact of both temperature and seawater Mg / Ca on Mg incorporation in Foraminifera has been quantified by a number of studies.The underlying mechanism respon
