Understanding the anatomy of suprascapular area helps the clinicians and surgeons in management of any disability at the shoulder region. This work aimed to clear the different morphological and morphometrical types of suprascapular notch (SSN). Unknown 120 dry human scapulae of both sides and 60 formalin-embalmed cadaveric upper limbs (40 males and 20 females) were used in the present study. Three main morphological forms of SSN were reported: J, U, and V-shaped. J-shaped notch showed the highest incidence followed by U-shaped then V-shaped one. Morphometrically, type (III) notch was the most prevalent in both dry bones and cadavers, while the incidence of type (II) was the lowest form. Also, the measurements of superior transverse diameter, middle transverse diameter and vertical dimension of the different types of the notch showed no side or sex significant difference. The suprascapular foramen with ossified superior transverse scapular ligament (STSL) was seen in 5.8% of dry bones and 10% of cadaveric specimens. Fan and band-shaped ossified transverse scapular ligaments were reported. Absence of SSN was seen in 10.8% of dry bones, 7.5% of male and 10% of female specimens with left side predominance. V-shaped, absence, and ossified STSL were considered as predisposing factors of suprascapular nerve entrapment syndrome. Knowledge of the morphology and morphometric parameters of SSN is of great clinical significance for anatomists, radiologists, physiotherapists, orthopedics and neurosurgeons to perform good diagnosis and best planning for surgical or arthroscopic interventions within the shoulder region.

Transverse skeletal deficiency is a common clincal problem associated with narrow basal and dentoalveolar bone. The clinical characteristics of transverse deficiency presents with anterior crowding and posterior buccal crossbite. Orthodontic expansion, using lip bumper and functional devices, was recommanded for younger ages. However, expansion of lower anterior area in older Patients is unstable and tends to relapse toward the original dimension. Distraction osteogenesis is a unique form of clincal tissue engineering and biologic process of new bone formation between bone segments that are gradually separately by incremental traction. Distraction osteogenesis was considered that great potential for correcting transverse mandibular deficiencies. In this Paper, a case of treated transverse deficiency patients with distraction osteogenesis using tooth-borne and tooth & bone-borne distractor is presented.

Three dimensional structures of detonation wave propagating through a square-shaped duct were investigated using computational method and parallel processing. Inviscid fluid dynamics equations coupled with $variable-{\gamma}$ formulation and simplified one-step Arrhenius chemical reaction model were analysed by MUSCL-type TVD scheme and four stage Runge-Kutta time integration. The unsteady computational results in three dimension show the detailed mechanism of transverse mode and diagonal mode of detonation wave instabilities resulting same cell length but different cell width in smoked-foil record.

Nonlinear resonance characteristics of transverse type-PZT ceramic resonator were investigated, and their nonlinear coefficients were calculated using the nonlinear theory proposed by Duffing. Resonance characteristics of sample showed nonlinearity by the thermal effects due to driving current. Nonlinear coefficients greatly affected by sample dimension, however comparing with respect to current density, it was almost constant. Nonlinear coefficients were not changed as driving current increased upto 40 mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$, when $\alpha$ and $\beta$ was 920 and -10.6, respectively, while nonlinear coefficients exponentially increased beyond the current density of 40 mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$. Nonlinear coefficients were slightly increased as temperature increased.

A configuration of illumination for high-speed color document scanner has been proposed utilizing white light emitting diode and transparent plastic lightguide. The design of illumination system including lightguide for high optical efficiency and uniform image quality is performed based on a simulation using ray-tracing method. The device characteristics are also experimentally evaluated in terms of illumination distribution against longitudinal and transverse direction on document plane. Uniform illumination distribution about 85% of in longitudinal and transverse direction is realized by control of mechanical dimension and position of lightguide.

This research has been devoted to examine nonlinear static bending analysis of smart beams with nano dimension exposed to thermal environment. The beam elastic properties are corresponding to piezo-magnetic material of different compositions. The large deflection analysis of the beam has been performed assuming that the beam is exposed to transverse uniform pressure. Based on the rule of Hamilton, the governing equations have been derived for a nonlocal thin beam and solved using differential quadrature method. Temperature variation effect on nonlinear deflection of the smart beams has been studied. Also, the beam deflection is shown to be affected by electric voltage, magnetic intensity and material composition.

Let W and V be manifolds of dimension m + 2, M a locally flat submanifold of V whose dimension is m. Let $f:W{\rightarrow}V$ be a homotopy equivalence. The problem we study in this paper is the following: When is f homotopic to another homotopy equivalence $g:W{\rightarrow}V$ such that g is transverse regular along M and such that $g{\mid}g^{-1}(M):g^{-1}(M){\rightarrow}M$ is a simple homotopy equivalence? $L{\acute{o}}pez$ de Medrano (1970) called this problem the weak h-regularity problem. We solve this problem applying the codimension two surgery theory developed by the author (1973). We will work in higher dimensions, assuming that $$m{\geq_-}5$$.

Dynamic behaviors of transverse domain walls (TDWs) in rectangular shaped thin-film magnetic nanowires with different widths under applied magnetic fields less than the Walker field were studied by micromagnetic simulations. It was found that the velocity of stable TDWs in the viscous region increases from 147 to 419 m/s and their mass decreases from $6.24{\times}10^{-23}\;to\;2.70{\times}10^{-23}kg$ with increasing strength of the applied magnetic field ranging from 5 to 20 Oe for the nanowire with a dimension of 10 nm in thickness and $5{\mu}m$ in length, and 50 nm in width. With increasing the width of nanowires from 50 to 125 nm at a specific field strength of 5 Oe, the TDW's velocity also increases from 147 to 246 m/s and its mass decreases from $6.24{\times}10^{-23}\;to\;5.91{\times}10^{-23}kg$.

The purpose of this paper is to provide an experimental and analytical study on the reinforced large diameter pretensioned high strength concrete (R-LDPHC) pile. R-LDPHC pile was reinforced with infilled concrete, longitudinal, and transverse rebar to increase the flexural and shear strength of conventional large diameter PHC (LDPHC) pile without changing dimension of the pile. To evaluate the shear and flexural strength enhancement effects of R-LDPHC piles compared with conventional LDPHC pile, a two-point loading tests were conducted under simple supported conditions. Nonlinear analysis on the basis of the conventional layered sectional approach was also performed to evaluate effects of infilled concrete and longitudinal rebar on the flexural strength of conventional LDPHC pile. Moreover, ultimate strength design method was adopted to estimate the effect of transverse rebar and infilled concrete on the shear strength of a pile. The analytical results were compared with the results of the bending and shear test. Test results showed that the flexural strength and shear strength of R-LDPHC pile were increased by 2.3 times and 3.3 times compared to those of the conventional LDPHC pile, respectively. From the analytical study, it was found that the flexural strength and shear strength of R-LDPHC pile can be predicted by the analytical method by considering rebar and infilled concrete effects, and the average difference of flexural strength between experimental results and calculated result was 10.5% at the ultimate state.

In order to ensure safety of small vessels, the amended Ship Safety Act will come into force on 4th. Nov. 2007. This study is performed to suggest the stability criteria of fishing vessels and cargo ships of 12m in length and over but less than 24m in length which will be new object of amended Ship Safety Act. We have analyze the dimensions of domestic small vessels and the casualty reports of capsizing accidents. According to the analyzed result, 58 ships that are in the range of the dimension are modeled and the stability calculation has been carried out. The Stability for the 58 ships has been analyzed by comparing the result that applied the selected standard in the national standard to the stability calculation. Based on the regression analysis of the model ship's allowable transverse metacentric-heights under several stability requirements, stability criteria for small fishing vessels and cargo ships are proposed.
