On A Comparison between Two Measures of Spatial Association

Two measures of spatial association between two variables were used by many researchers. These are the Wartenberg (1985) and Lee (2001) measures. Based on simulation for lattice data, the sensitivity of both measures was studied and compared with different choices of spatial structures, spatial weights and sample sizes using bias and mean square error. Different scenarios are used in terms of assumed numbers and sample sizes. Moran’s I is used to examine the spatial autocorrelation of such a variable with itself. Both the Wartenberg and Lee measures are found to be sensitive, however, Wartenberg’s measure is found to be somewhat better than Lee’s measure because it is slightly more sensitive when sample size is small

Polarized seismic and solitary waves run-up at the sea bed

The polarization effects in hydrodynamics are studied. Hydrodynamic equation for the nonlinear wave is used along with the polarized solitary waves and seismic waves act as initial waves. The model is then solved by Fourier spectral and Runge-Kutta 4 methods, and the surface plot is drawn. The output demonstrates the inundation behaviors. Consequently, the polarized seismic waves along with the polarized solitary waves tend to generate dissimilar inundation which is more disastrous

Grading complication following radical cystectomy and ileal conduit for bladder cancer using clavien grading system

Objective: To determine the 30-day complication rate of radical cystectomy and urinary diversion using a validated system.Study Design: An analytical descriptive study. Place and Duration of Study: The Aga Khan University Hospital, Karachi, from 1990 to 2010.Methodology: Patients who had undergone ileal conduit (IC) formation, following radical cystectomy (RC) for muscle invasive transitional cell carcinoma, were studied, using a prospectively maintained data base. Basic details were determined, complications were noted and graded according to the modified Clavien grading system (CG). Results were presented using descriptive statistics. Results: Of all the RC performed at this hospital 89 patients received IC. Of them 75 were male and 14 female. Mean age was 60 years. Mean duration of hospital stay was 14 days. Ten patients each received pre-operative chemotherapy and radiotherapy, respectively. Mean duration of surgery was 8.2 hours, with mean estimated blood loss of 1334 ml. Preoperative radiotherapy was associated with more complications. No other factor like ASA, co-morbidities, blood loss or duration of stay influenced the complications. Fifty patients (56.2%) did not have any complications. Most common complication of wound infection was seen in 7 patients (CG-2), followed by uretero-ileal leakage in 5, requiring percutaneous intervention under local anaesthesia (GC-3a). Mortality rate was 4.5%, classified as CG-V. Conclusion: Radical cystectomy with Ileal conduit is a major procedure with a good safety profile at this institute. Longterm follow up is still needed to evaluate delayed complications and quality of life

Both constant and variable accelerated cases are considered. Exact solution in each case is derived by using Fourier sine transform. Many interesting available results in the relevant literature are obtained as the special cases of the present analysis. The graphical results are presented and discussed

The effect of bismuth on the structure and mechanical properties of GeO2–PbO–Bi2O3 ternary bulk glass system

This paper reports the elastic properties and structure of GeO2–PbO–Bi2O3 ternary bulk glasses which were successfully prepared by melt quenching technique. The study was performed by ultrasonic measurements and Fourier transform infra red (FTIR) spectroscopy. Increasing values of density, ultrasonic velocity and elastic moduli were observed due to substitution of bismuth to lead atoms with fixed composition of GeO2. Also, FTIR spectrum showed different profiles between samples with higher content of lead or bismuth. In Pb-rich samples all of the components contributed in the structure as network former; however, in Bi-rich samples lead and bismuth showed modifier behavior and the structure was depolymerized by adding of bismuth content

Adsorption of Zinc by Using Combusted Palm Oil Kernel

The report is prepared to provide readers information regarding the ell.:periment of adsorption of zinc by using combusted palm oil kernel. The presence of heavy metals in water causes harm since they are classified as toxic. The objective of the experiment is to establish the optimum adsorbent dosage, the optimum adsorption period for the adsorption of zinc and the best adsorption isotherm model. The size of adsorbent was R4251im. Zinc had been used during the experiment as heavy metals to be adsorbed by the adsorbent. The adsorbent dosages used were 25, 50, 100, and 200 mg, 25, 50, 75, and 100 mg, and 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000 mg. The combusted palm oil kernels were supplied to every aqueous zinc solution sample. The concentrations were divided into two which were 10 and 100 ppm. All samples were shaken by orbital shaker with four different durations 1, 3, 6, and 24 hours. Only after the shaking processes completed, the final concentrations of aqueous zinc solution were measured by using HACH DR2800 Spectrophotometer. In the first trial of phase 1 with initial concentration of 11.45 mg!L, the optimum adsorbent dosage was 2000mg/L and the optimum adsorption period was 24 hours. In the second trial of phase 1 with initial concentration of 240mg/L, the optimum adsorbent dosage was 2000 mg/L and the optimum adsorption period was 24 hours. In the second trial of phase 1 with initial concentration of 141.33 mg/L, the optimum adsorbent dosage was 1000 mg!L and the optimum adsorption period was 6 hours. In the first trial of phase 2 with initial concentration of 10 mg/L, the optimum adsorbent dosage was 2000 mg/L and the optimum adsorption period was 3 hours. In the first trial of phase 2 with the initial concentration of 110 mg/L, the optimum adsorbent dosage was 2000 mg/L and the optimum adsorption period was 24 hours. In the seeond trial of phase 2 with the initial concentration of 10 mg!L, the optimum adsorption period was 6 hours and the optimum adsorbent dosage was 40000 mg/L. In conclusion, the higher the adsorbent dosage was used, the higher the percentage removal. A good plot of the adsorption isotherm depended on the degree of consistency of the adsorption model

Computational study on the aerodynamic performance of wind turbine airfoil fitted with Coandă jet

Various methods of flow control for enhanced aerodynamic performance have been developed and applied to enhance and control the behavior of aerodynamic components. The use of Coandă effect for the enhancement of circulation and lift has gained renewed interest, in particular with the progress of CFD. The present work addresses the influence, effectiveness, and configuration of Coandă-jet fitted aerodynamic surface for improving lift and , specifically for S809 airfoil, with a view on its incorporation in the wind turbine. A simple two-dimensional CFD modeling using - turbulence model is utilized to reveal the key elements that could exhibit the desired performance for a series of S809 airfoil configurations. Parametric study performed indicates that the use of Coandă-jet S809 airfoil can only be effective in certain range of trailing edge rounding-off radius, Coandă-jet thickness, and momentum jet size. The location of the Coandă-jet was found to be effective when it is placed close to the trailing edge. The results are compared with experimental data for benchmarking. Three-dimensional configurations are synthesized using certain acceptable assumptions. A trade-off study on the S809 Coandă configured airfoil is needed to judge the optimum configuration of Coandă-jet fitted Wind-Turbine design

Bomb Blast and Its Consequences: Successful Intensive Care Management of Massive Pulmonary Embolsim.

A suicide bomb blast in 2013 at a distant city of Pakistan killed 84 and wounded more than 150 people. Some patients were transferred to our tertiary care hospital because of extreme load on medical services there. This patient arrived at the Aga Khan Hospital, 2 days after the bomb blast injury and underwent an orthopedic procedure. Next day, he developed sudden tachypnea, desaturation, and circulatory collapse. After initial cardiopulmonary resuscitation, he was immediately transferred to surgical intensive care unit. Based on history, echocardiography findings and patient parameters, a clinical diagnosis of massive pulmonary embolism was made and immediate thrombolytic therapy with alteplase was started. The immediate improvement in hemodynamic status was evident following 2 hours of alteplase infusion. This case also highlights the aggressiveness of resuscitation, decision making in initiating thrombolytic therapy on clinical grounds, importance of deep venous thrombosis prophylaxis, and exhaustion of health resources due to blast related mass destruction
