Concurrent Variations of Lateral Pectoral, Median, and Musculocutaneous Nerves

open access: yesOnline Journal of Health & Allied Sciences, 2017
Brachial plexus frequently presents variations of its cords and branches. We saw concurrent variations of lateral pectoral, median and musculocutaneous nerves. There were two lateral pectoral nerves.

Optimization and Experiment of Fertilizer-Spreading Device for Wheat Wide-Boundary Sowing Planter under Full Rice Straw Retention

open access: yesAgronomy, 2022
When sowing with a wide boundary under full rice straw retention in the rice–wheat rotation area of China, conventional fertilization methods have some problems, such as a low fertilizer utilization rate, heap soil around a buried fertilizer device, or ...

On Maximizing Lateral Clearance of an Autonomous Vehicle in Urban Environments [PDF]

open access: yes2019 IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Conference (ITSC), 2019
We consider the problem of maximizing distance to road agents for a self-driving car. To this extent, we employ a Model Predictive Control (MPC) approach for the steering tracking control of an Autonomous Vehicle (AV). Specifically, we first present a traditional MPC controller, which is then extended to encode the clearance maximization goal by ...

Lane-Filtering Behavior of Motorcycle Riders at Signalized Urban Intersections

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Transportation, 2022
In developing countries, motorcycle riders typically perform lane filtering at signalized urban intersections. This study aims to determine the factors that affect the lateral clearance of motorcycle riders as they travel between two lanes of mixed ...

Piloted Simulation of the Rotorcraft Wind Turbine Wake Interaction during Hover and Transit Flights

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
Helicopters are used for offshore wind farms for maintenance and support flights. The number of helicopter operations is increasing with the expansion of offshore wind energy, which stresses the point that the current German regulations have not yet been

The safety benefits added by lateral roadside clearance to urban streets [PDF]

open access: yesWIT Transactions on The Built Environment, 2009
This research will illustrate that, within an urban setting and on curbed roadways of similar conditions, a minimum clear zone setback distance of ten feet is probably not necessary. The distance from the edge of the roadway to a fixed object is known as the clear zone, or lateral offset.

Factors Influencing Presence or Absence of Laterality During Pharyngeal Bolus Clearance

open access: yesPerspectives of the ASHA Special Interest Groups, 2020
Purpose The aim of this study was to identify factors influencing pharyngeal laterality of bolus clearance through the pharyngoesophageal segment. Method Two swallowing trials (5-ml nectar-thickened liquid and 5-ml pudding) administered in the anteroposterior viewing plane during ...

What you see is what you step: the horizontal-vertical illusion increases toe clearance in older adults during stair ascent [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
PURPOSE Falls on stairs are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in elderly people. A simple safety strategy to avoid tripping on stairs is increasing foot clearance. We determined whether a horizontal–vertical illusion superimposed onto stairs
