This work investigates and analyzes the performance of conventional slip models among various regimes of Knudsen number and developes a new multicoefficient slip-velocity model, by using Taguchi quality control techniques and numerical analysis.A modified Reynolds equation is also derived based on the new slip-flow model.The multicoefficient slip N
Abstract Background Although synthetic preservatives and antioxidants may have high antimicrobial and antioxidant activity, they are usually associated with adverse effects on human health.Currently, there is a growing interest in natural antimicrobial and antioxidant agents.This study aimed to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of two medicinal p
A percutaneous tracheostomy is a common surgical procedure done in intensive care.Several different techniques have been described.Recently, the addition of bronchoscopy or ultrasound has been advocated to decrease the risks and complications associated with the procedure; however, both aids used alone, bronchoscopy or ultrasound, have some drawbac
The Fertile Crescent in the Near East is one of the independent origins of the Neolithic, the source from which farming and pottery-making spread across Europe from 9,000 to 6,000 years ago at an average rate of about 1 km/yr.There Essential Oils is also strong evidence for causal connections between the Near-Eastern Neolithic and that further east
Abstract Background Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET), and its primary outcome of peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak), are acknowledged as biomarkers in the diagnostic and prognostic management of interstitial lung disease (ILD).However, the validity and repeatability of CPET in those with ILD has yet to be fully characterised, and this study fills
