Thoracolumbar burst fracture: Evaluating stability

Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI, 1996
The burst fracture is an injury characterized by anterior vertebral body height loss and retropulsion of the posterior aspect of the vertebral body into the spinal canal. The vertebral body injury frequently is associated with fractures through the neural arch.

Evaluating architecture stability of software projects

2013 20th Working Conference on Reverse Engineering (WCRE), 2013
Reuse of software components depends from different aspects of high level software artifacts. In particular, software architecture and its stability should be taken into account before selecting software components for reuse. In this direction, this paper presents an empirical study aimed at assessing software architecture stability and its evolution ...

Evaluating the Numerical Stability of Posit Arithmetic

2020 IEEE International Parallel and Distributed Processing Symposium (IPDPS), 2020
The Posit number format has been proposed by John Gustafson as an alternative to the IEEE 754 standard floatingpoint format. Posits offer a unique form of tapered precision whereas IEEE floating-point numbers provide the same relative precision across most of their representational range.

Biomechanical Evaluation of Longitudinal Arch Stability

Foot & Ankle, 1993
In spite of the common occurrence of pes planus and multiple operations that have been reported to relieve the associated symptoms, there is little published on the relative contribution of various structures to stabilization of the arch of the foot. Twelve fresh-frozen human cadaveric feet were loaded along the tibial axis with compressive loads of ...

Evaluating and Optimizing Stabilizing Dining Philosophers

2015 11th European Dependable Computing Conference (EDCC), 2015
We study theoretical and practical aspects of five of the most well-known self-stabilizing dining philosophers algorithms. We theoretically prove that three of them are incorrect. For practical evaluation, we simulate all algorithms and evaluate their fault-tolerance, latency and throughput of critical section access.

An Algorithm Evaluating System Stability to Process

2009
The stability of computer systems(single computers or computer networks) to processes is studied in this paper. Unlike the notion of self-stabilization, which requires the involved computer systems are stable for all the processes possibly running on them, we believe that a computer system can only be stable for some of the processes.

Evaluation of the stability of dried BCG vaccine

Tubercle, 1972
Abstract Dried BCG vaccine, prepared by the method of Ungar and others (1962) (deep culture growth in glycerol-free liquid medium, freeze dried in dextran-glucose solution) has been tested for stability on storage at refrigerator temperature (0–5°C), room temperature (18–22dgC) and elevated temperature (37°C).

Stability evaluation of vaccines: WHO approach

Biologicals, 2009
The stability of vaccines has a major impact on the success of immunization programmes worldwide. In line with this, clear definition of the stability characteristics of a vaccine is of critical importance. One of the concerns at country level is whether vaccines will remain potent on its way from the manufacturer, through the distribution channels, to
