Modeling of surface finish in electro-discharge machining based upon statistical multi-parameter analysis
(2004)
A multi-parameter analysis of surface finish imparted to Ck60 steel plates by electro-discharge machining (EDM) is presented. The interrelationship between surface texture parameters and process parameters is emphasized. ...
Personality characteristics and profiles of Greek elementary teachers using the sixteen personality factor questionnaire (16PF)
(2009)
Empirical evidence indicates that a teacher's personality influences the classroom climate, students' behaviors, and their interpersonal relationships. Although the effect of a teacher's personality on students' psychological ...
BsmI, TaqI, ApaI and FokI polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene and the risk of osteoporosis: A meta-analysis
(2006)
A meta-analysis regarding BsmI, TaqI, ApaI and FokI polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene and their associations with osteoporosis in females is reported. The meta-analysis involved 14, seven, seven and three ...
An ultrasound wearable system for the monitoring and acceleration of fracture healing in long bones
(2005)
An ultrasound wearable system for remote monitoring and acceleration of the healing process in fractured long bones is presented. The so-called USBone system consists of a pair of ultrasound transducers, implanted into the ...
Lack of association of single nucleotide polymorphism in LRCH1 with knee osteoarthritis susceptibility
(2008)
A genetic association of knee osteoarthritis (OA) and a C/T transition single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) (rs912428) located in intron 1 of the LRCH1 gene has recently been reported in European Caucasians; however, the ...
Identification of the four most common beta-globin gene mutations in Greek beta-thalassemic patients and carriers by PCR-SSCP: Advantages and limitations of the method
(2006)
In the present study we investigated whether the single-strand conformational polymorphism (SSCP) method could be employed to identify (rather than simply detect) the four most common beta-globin gene mutations in the Greek ...
Immunomodulatory effects of dietary protein during Nippostrongylus brasiliensis re-infection in lactating rats
(2009)
Periparturient relaxation of immunity (PPRI) to secondary infection with nematodes is believed to have a nutritional basis due to differential partitioning of scarce nutrient resources, particularly protein, to reproductive ...
Magnetohydrodynamic natural convection in a vertical cylindrical cavity with sinusoidal upper wall temperature
(2009)
A series of numerical simulations were performed in order to study liquid metal MHD natural convection in a vertical cylindrical container with a sinusoidal temperature distribution at the upper wall and the other surfaces ...
A homogenous random fractal model for time series produced by constant energy molecular dynamics simulations
(2003)
In the present work we present an analysis of time series of instantaneous temperature and pressure produced during microcanonical (constant energy) molecular dynamics (MD). Simulations were applied to a nickel oxide grain ...
RECURRENCE QUANTIFICATION ANALYSIS OF TEMPERATURE FLUCTUATIONS IN A HORIZONTAL ROUND HEATED TURBULENT JET
(2009)
We present an analysis of temperature fluctuations in a horizontal round heated turbulent jet. Instantaneous temperature time series were recorded at several points along a horizontal line in the plane of symmetry of the ...
