A Procedure to Optimize Reed Type Valves Considering Efficiency and Bending Fatigue

open access: yes, 2012
Reed valves are the most common type of valves used in small compressors due to their simplicity and low cost. Such valves greatly affect the compressor volumetric and isentropic efficiencies and their suitable design is also crucial for reliability ...

Autonomous suction harvesting as a novel approach to aquatic invasive plant control

open access: yes
In response to the mounting ecological and economic impacts of aquatic invasive plants, management actions now include a wide array of mechanical, physical, biological, and chemical control strategies. Diver-assisted suction harvesting (DASH) is a common

Face and Construct Validity of a Grapefruit Arthroscopy Training Model With Active Fluid Management

open access: yesArthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate the face and construct validity of a grapefruit arthroscopy training model with active fluid management across varying levels of arthroscopic experience. Methods Orthopaedic residents, fellows, and attending surgeons were stratified into novice (n = 10), intermediate (n = 10), and advanced (n = 9) groups.

Modeling the Stiction Effect in Automatic Compressor Valves

open access: yes, 2012
The so-called stiction effect (or stiction force) is one of the sources of thermodynamic losses in compressor suction and discharge systems. The losses associated with the stiction effect are caused by a deformation of the lubricating oil film between ...

Technique for Lateral Opening Wedge Distal Femoral Osteotomy Using Patient‐Specific Instrumentation for Genu Valgum and Patellar Instability

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Recurrent lateral patellar instability poses a technical challenge to orthopaedic surgeons. Isolated soft‐tissue procedures through medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction or lateral release show unacceptably high failure rates. Lateral opening wedge distal femoral osteotomy addresses underlying bony malalignment and reinforces the soft ...

Arthroscopic Implantation of Minced Cartilage From the Os Trigonum and Posterolateral Process of the Talus: Single‐Stage Cell‐Based Treatment of Osteochondral Lesion of the Talus

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract The best surgical treatment of osteochondral lesion of the talus (OLT) remains controversial. Among the available surgical procedures for OLTs, implantation of the minced cartilage from the talar lesion is a promising cell‐based technique. However, surgeons may experience difficulties when enough volume and quality of the cartilage cannot be ...
