Initial value problem for one-dimensional rotating shallow water equations [PDF]
In this article we address some issues related to the initial value problems for a rotating shallow water hyperbolic system of equations and the diffusive regularization of this system. For initial data close to the solution at rest, we establish the local existence and the uniqueness of a solution to the hyperbolic system, as well as the global ...

Impact of Parkinson?s disease on the efficiency of masticatory cycles : electromyographic analysis [PDF]
This study evaluated the efficiency of masticatory cycles by means of the linear envelope of the electromyographic signal of the masseter and temporalis muscles in individuals with Parkinson?s disease.

Abstract Objective Trigeminal postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) is often refractory to treatment. Pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) neuromodulation can help in preventing PHN after herpes zoster. This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of two different PRF modes on gasserian ganglion neuromodulation in elderly patients with acute/subacute trigeminal ...

The energy of muscle contraction. II. Transverse compression and work [PDF]
In this study we reproduced this compression-induced reduction in muscle force through the use of a three-dimensional finite element model of contracting muscle. The model used the principle of minimum total energy and allowed for the redistribution of energy through different strain energy-densities; this allowed us to determine the importance of the ...

Clinical significance of the buccal fat pad: how to determine the correct surgical indications based on preoperative analysis [PDF]
Background: Despite the multitude of clinical and aesthetic uses, the correct surgical indications for buccal fat pad (BFP) removal have yet to be fully elucidated.

Agent-based Modeling and Simulation of Human Muscle For Development of Human Gait Analyzer Application [PDF]
Despite the fact that only a small portion of muscles are affected in motion disease and disorders, medical therapies do not distinguish between healthy and unhealthy muscles. In this paper, a method is devised in order to calculate the neural stimuli of the lower body during gait cycle and check if any group of muscles are not acting properly.

An ultrasonographic evaluation of masseter muscle thickness in different dentofacial patterns
Objectives: The aim of this study is to compare the masseter muscle thickness in different vertical dentofacial patterns and identify the possible sexual dimorphism and also to correlate masseter muscle thickness with craniofacial morphology using ...
