The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Hypoglossal nerve or tongue protruding muscle stimulation is a current treatment option for obstructive sleep apnea. Thus, the present study analyzed 3D deformations of the volumetric enlarged and reduced tongue base upon oropharyngeal neuromuscular stimulation.

The role of tidal forces in star cluster disruption
, 2020 Star clusters are subject to density irregularities in their host galaxy, such as giant molecular clouds (GMCs), the galactic disc and spiral arms, which are largely ignored in present day (N-body) simulations of cluster evolution.

Confusion around the tidal force and the centrifugal force
, 2015 We discuss the tidal force, whose notion is sometimes misunderstood in the public domain literature. We discuss the tidal force exerted by a secondary point mass on an extended primary body such as the Earth. The tidal force arises because the gravitational force exerted on the extended body by the secondary mass is not uniform across the primary.

TIDAL FORCES IN COLD BLACK HOLE SPACETIMES
, 2008 We investigate here the behavior of a few spherically symmetric static acclaimed black hole solutions in respect of tidal forces in the geodesic frame. It turns out that the forces diverge on the horizon of cold black holes (CBH) while for ordinary ones,

Scanning Parametric Sediment Echosounder as Tool for Underwater Archaeological Prospection
Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Underwater cultural heritage 3D prospection techniques, especially for remains that are partly buried in the ground, are only very rarely available and often can only be applied with considerable technical effort. To overcome this limitation, we evaluate a methodological adaption of widely used and available single channel parametric sediment ...

On compressive radial tidal forces [PDF]
American Journal of Physics, 2007 Radial tidal forces can be compressive instead of disruptive, a possibility that is frequently overlooked in high level physics courses. For example, radial tidal compression can emerge in extended stellar systems containing a smaller stellar cluster. For particular conditions the tidal field produced by this extended mass distribution can exert on the

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.Abstract All children should have access to quality education through a child‐centred pedagogy. An inclusive, child‐centred pedagogy uses a strength‐based view of children that recognises each child as unique and competent, providing children with multiple opportunities to explore and learn at their own pace.

On the relation between tidal and forced spirometry
Medical Engineering & PhysicsSpirometry is a lung function test involving deep inhalation and forceful deep exhalation. It is widely used to obtain objective information about airflow limitation and to diagnose lung diseases. In contrast, tidal spirometry is based on normal breathing and therefore much more convenient, but it is hardly used in medical care and its relation with ...

Tidal Forces and the Formation of Hurricanes [PDF]
Nature, 1954 MAY I raise the following question: “Do tidal forces affect the formation of hurricanes?” If one examines the changing direction of the tidal force due to the sun and a moon near new (or full) on an August day, say, as this force acts on a small element of air located at a point south of the sub-solar latitude and north of the equator, one finds the ...

Energy resources: tidal energy
, 2010 The rise and fall of ocean tides result from the combined gravitational pull on water by the Moon and, to a lesser extent, bu the Sun, which exerts a force on water directed towards the two astronomical bodies.
