In this work, to describe the cycle behavior considering fatigue-creep interaction, a non-unified viscoplastic constitutive model for 316 stainless steel is derived within the irreversible thermodynamic framework.The internal variables considering kinematic and isotropic hardening properties are selected to construct the evolution equation of visco
Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) is a non-invasive treatment successfully used for neoplastic, inflammatory and infectious skin diseases.One of its Stemmed Wine Glass strengths is represented by the high safety profile, even in elderly and/or immuno-depressed subjects.PDT, however, may induce early and late onset side effects.Erythema, pain, burns, edema
Abstract We propose Card Reader a theoretical concept of a far-field radiative thermal rectification device that uses a phase change material to achieve a high degree of asymmetry in radiative heat transfer.The proposed device has a multilayer structure on one side and a blackbody on other side.The multilayer structure consists of transparent thin
Drug distribution relies heavily on polymers, which also offer a variety of benefits like controlled release, targeted release, prolonged release, etc.Due to their low toxicity and great safety, biodegradable polymers are highly preferred.The exopolysaccharide known as pullulan is generated from a fungus known as Aureobasidium pullulan.It has many
Abstract Background We evaluated our results of lengthening of free vascularized fibular grafts using a unilateral external fixator in patients with residual leg length discrepancy after free vascularized fibular graft for lower limb reconstruction.Cases presentation Card Reader Two patients were administrated to our hospital with residual tibial l
