Abstract:
Abstract In the summer of 2014, I ran across a short (21-folio) manuscript in the collection of the Institute for Oriental Manuscripts (Institut Vostochnix Rukopisiei) in St. Petersburg, Russia. The Dmitrieva catalog of Turkic manuscripts at the IVR describes the manuscript as follows: “Autograph by a poor man from Qarakhoja in Xinjiang with information about the life of Uyghurs at that time.” It was written in or before 1909. Qarakhoja is a town in the Turfan Depression in eastern Xinjiang, and this text is a memoir or autobiography of a literate but not wealthy man named Obulmahdi (Abū ‘l-Mahdī), recounting his life from his childhood in the 1850s through the first decade of the twentieth century. It presents a record of a complex life on the margins of society in the last years of the Qing empire’s (1636/44–1912) rule in Xinjiang.

New collections of Teratoscincus from China and reexamination of type specimens in the Zoological Institute, St. Petersburg, Russia, reveal that T. roborowskii Bedriaga, «1905» (1906), is a valid species. The type locality given by Bedriaga is in error and is here corrected to the Turpan Depression, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, China where the species is endemic. Two additional species inhabit China, T. przewalskii (in the Taklimakan Desert, Hami Depression, Junggar Depression, and part of the Gobi Desert of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region and adjacent provinces) and T. scincus (in the Ili River Valley of extreme western Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region).

Abstract:
The North Caspian uplift is located in the water area of the Caspian Sea and coincides with the area of articulation of the Caspian Depression and the Turan Plate. Drilling of wells proved the presence of a large carbonate platform in the North Caspian uplift composed of Middle Carboniferous deposits, which is similar in structure to the South Emba and Zhanazhol zones of the Caspian Depression. Carbonate deposits of the Lower Permian, formed in shallow-shelf, bioherm and slope facies were discovered in the North Caspian uplift.

Abstract:
In South Siberian mountains floodplain steppe meadows can be found only within steppe and forest-steppe belts. In the eastern part of the Altai-Sayan mountain region (ASMR) these belts occupy large intermontane depressions, making up the submeridional range at 56–50° N (Fig. 1). The northern part of this range consists of four large depressions (the Nazarovo, North Minusinsk, Middle Minusinsk and South Minusinsk). To the north, the Nazarovo depression merges into the West Siberian plain. The southern border of the South Minusinsk depression is the West Sayan. The southern part of range includes the Turan-Uyuk and Central Tuvinian depressions. This study is based on the analysis of 260 geobotanical relevés made in the valleys of 47 rivers (21 — in Minusinsk depressions, 26 — in Tuvinian depressions). The set includes the relevés of steppe meadow of different river types (large, medium, small), located in different parts of the studied region. The typical feature of these communities is the permanent coexistence of steppe and meadow species with negligible part of meadow-steppe herbs. All steppe meadows under discussion are similar in appearance. Tall grasses, various in different associations, form a sparse upper sublayer. Depending on the intensity of use, the main part of the herbage can be located in the middle sublayer or in the bottom one. In the middle sublayer, grasses predominate (Bromopsis inermis, Poa angustifolia, Elytrigia repens). Herbs tolerant to grazing (Potentilla bifurca, Amoria repens) make up the bottom sublayer. We have revealed 6 associations of steppe meadows. Ass. Potentillo bifurcae–Poetum angustifoliae, Potentillo bifurcae–Leymetum dasystachyos, Potentillo bifurcae–Hordeetum brevisubulati are typical for Tuvinian depressions, ass. Artemisio laciniatae–Koelerietum delavignei, Trifolio pratensis–Koelerietum delavignei и Trifolio pratensis–Festucetum valesiacae — for Minusinsk ones (Table 1). The basic bioclimatic barrier of ASMR — the West Sayan divides their areas. The ordination of new associations along the gradients of moisture supply (horizontal axis) and richness-salinity of soils (vertical axis) demonstrates that areas of associations form two ranges — the Minusinsk and Tuvinian. Every association of the Minusinsk range has corresponding association of the Tuvinian range (Fig. 2). DCA-ordination (Fig. 3) and cluster analysis (Fig. 4) of syntaxa from the South Urals, West Siberia, Yakutia and new associations have detected the specificity of the last ones, so a new alliance Potentillo bifurcae–Poion angustifoliae (order Galietalia veri, class Molinio-Arrhenatheretea) has been described. It comprises steppe meadows of the Eastern part of ASMR.

Abstract:
North Uskyurt Basin, located on Turan Plain, northwestern Central Asian, is continental polycyclic cratonic. The structural evolution of the basin underwent six phases: basement formulation, passive edge, rifting, post-rifting, compression, early Neogene depression. Regional structural evolution takes control of complicated transition of North Uskyurt sedimentary structure. In general, basin sedimentary environment underwent basement (granite, metamorphic rocks) passive edge, late Devonian epoch carboniferous period (marine facies) rifting, late Permian epoch-triassic period (continental facies) post-rifting, Jurassic period-Cretaceous period (Marine-continental Transition Facies, marine facies) compression, late Eocene-Miocene epoch (marine-continental facies coexistence) Neogene depression, Pliocene-Holocene (continental facies). Consequently, sedimentary formation in which various sedimentary environment, such as marine facies, continental facies, are coexisted with various rock types, such as clastic rocks, carbonate rocks, is generated.

Abstract:
A structural-facies map of the Bashkir stage of the Caspian basin, the southeastern part of the East European platform and the Turan plate is compiled on the basis of drilling data generalization. The sequence of tectonic events and sedimentation processes in the early‒ late Bashkir century of the middle Carboniferous was reconstructed. It is shown that cessation of reef formation, appearance of erosion surfaces and partial destruction of the side ledges of Caspian depression occurred under the influence of Varis orogenesis and the global fall of the World Ocean level due to the glaciation of the Paleogondvana at the turn of early‒middle Carboniferous. It is assumed that oil and gas reservoirs in the rocks of Vise‒Bashkir age are confined to large bodies of carbonate-clastic rocks with clinoform structure that arose on the slopes of the depression due to destruction of its side ledges.

Abstract:
In this chapter, we provide a brief introduction to our book. We discuss the following themes, which run throughout this edited book on depressive disorders and comorbidity: assessment and diagnosis, theory and methods, psychiatric comorbidity, health comorbidity, relationship comorbidity, intervention and consultation, and future directions. A number of themes will be apparent, including the incredibly broad scope of depressive comorbidity. Depression goes with many other problems. Another theme is that the specifics of depressive comorbidity—and the implications for theory, research, and practice—vary considerably as we consider one type of comorbidity versus another. For example, the comorbidity of depression and generalized anxiety disorder has very different implications than the comorbidity of depression and alcohol-use disorder, which in turn is different than the comorbidity of depression and cancer, which again has different implications than the comorbidity of depression and severe relationship dysfunction. Each of the chapters in the book highlight some of the themes and issues, but the remarkable breadth and depth of depressive comorbidity becomes clearer as we consider all of the chapters in total. We attempt to bridge some of these differences and look for common themes in the Epilogue at the end of the book, as do some of the contributors in their individual chapters on specific issues or types of comorbidity. In this Introduction, however, we focus more on the specific chapters and a few of the themes that are highlighted in each one. Overarching themes, such as what is meant bycomorbidity, how might future efforts at assessment and treatment be improved, and what future developments may be particularly helpful are discussed in many of the individual chapters. This brief introduction serves to highlight a few of the issues and introduce the reader to the broad array of chapters that await them in the rest of the book.

Abstract:
Depression is highly prevalent among individuals living with HIV/AIDS. Depression not only affects quality of life for this population but also confers significant barriers to optimizing self-care behaviors, which are essential to medical care. Two of the most important HIV/AIDS care behaviors are medication adherence and safe sex practices; inadequacy in both can be associated with depression. Depression among those living with HIV/AIDS also is associated with substance abuse, which in turn predicts poor self-care. Importantly, there has recently been an emphasis on creating and testing integrative psychosocial interventions that address depression and self-care behaviors among people living with HIV/AIDS. These combination treatments have displayed initial efficacy and appear to be efficient in addressing multiple health behaviors. This chapter briefly reviews the epidemiology of HIV/AIDS and salient biological outcomes in the context of depression. It then discusses the role of depression and self-care behaviors and it concludes with a review of interventions and future research priorities.

Abstract:
We investigate whether the amplification of positive affect during conflict discussions or “up regulation” between adolescent romantic partners functions to prevent or terminate interpersonal conflict. Unfortunately, this up regulation strategy may also result in unresolved relationship problems, and ultimately increase adolescent depressive symptoms. The concept of coercion is reviewed as it applies to conflict resolution and avoidance in a sample of 80 adolescent romantic relationships. Results from multilevel hazard models showed that longer durations of observed upregulation states predicted increases in depressive symptoms in both males and females over the course of 2 years. In addition, female depression predicted slower exits from coercive states, which in turn predicted higher levels of males’ depressive symptoms. Implications of these findings are discussed, as well as the possibility that positive affect can be negatively reinforced when it functions to avoid conflict in recently formed close relationships.

Abstract:
This chapter begins with an overview of epidemiological research on comorbidities between major depression and other mental disorders. We emphasize the potential value of future studies building on recent evidence of the importance of latent liabilities in investigating the dynamics of comorbidities between depression and temporally primary and secondary mental disorders. We then turn to an overview of epidemiological and clinical research on comorbidities between major depression and a number of chronic physical disorders. We emphasize the potential value of expanding the number of mental disorders in future studies of this sort to include those known to be highly comorbid with major depression, so as to distinguish between mental/physical comorbidities specific to major depression and those involving a broader latent liability.

Abstract:
This chapter covers the macroeconomic aspects of the Global Financial Crisis, the subsequent Great Recession/Lesser Depression and the policy responses in developed and developing countries. DESA was one of the first international bodies to recognize the impending threat of financial crisis and to advocate the use of Keynesian fiscal stimulus. In the aftermath of the crisis, the goal of most international institutions was to seek an early return to pre-crisis ‘normality’. This was reflected in a rapid turn towards fiscal consolidation, justified by the expectation that private sector expansion would offset public sector austerity. By contrast, WESP correctly warned of the dangers of a premature end to fiscal stimulus.

Abstract:
This chapter tells a pair of stories—a grassroots beginning and a white backlash sparked by charges of outside agitation—that suggest an all-too-familiar civil rights narrative. Yet, in 1940s North Carolina, two communities—the black farmers and professionals in Tyrrell County and the multiracial network of leftist Protestants who applauded and supported their work—open up a new kind of civil rights story. Theirs is a story of interaction, interdependence, and partnerships built on a shared belief in the inseparability of economic and racial justice. Historians have long emphasized the turn from a Depression-era emphasis on economic and racial justice as two parts of a greater whole to a Cold War-era focus on civil rights and racial integration.

Abstract:
This chapter reviews the literature on modern dance in Germany under National Socialism (1933–1945). In the current consensus, three interrelated explanations are advanced for why so many modern dancers collaborated with the National Socialists: shared roots in the life reform and physical culture movement at the turn of the twentieth century; crises during the Weimar Republic that culminated in the Great Depression; and the changing cultural policy of Goebbels’s Cultural Ministry. This chapter probes varied interpretations of how and why Mary Wigman, Rudolf Laban, and other modern dancers adapted their mode of Ausdruckstanz as Deutscher Tanz (“German dance”) and poses new research questions. The complex question of modern dance in the Third Reich is viewed in relation to changing historiographic models for understanding Germany between the two world wars.

Abstract:
This chapter explores one of the ironies that color the history of the American film industry—the fact that its most glorious years, in terms of profitability, were those during which the entire nation struggled desperately to pull itself out of the depths of the Great Depression. Hollywood was as hard hit as any other industry by the stock market crash of 1929. But the captains of the film industry took advantage of several of the “New Deal” offers extended in 1933 by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Owing in part to smart business practices and in large part to an audience desperately in need of inexpensive escapist entertainment, the American film industry after 1933 thrived on a circle of economic dependence on attendance, exhibition, and production; only after World War II did the circle reverse itself and turn vicious.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the U.S. occupation of Haiti and the Bolshevik Revolution. Claude Barnett was sufficiently insightful to realize that the U.S. occupation of Haiti, which had commenced in 1915 and was to last until 1934, was not in his or his class's interests. Moreover, as numerous African Americans moved leftward during this same period under the influence of the Bolshevik Revolution and the emergent U.S. Communist Party, Barnett—though a staunch Republican—demonstrated his flexibility by seeking to accommodate them too. Unlike some in his class, Barnett did not instinctively bow to either colonialism or anticommunism. Indeed, the racial and class interests of Barnett directed him toward anticolonialism and thus, in turn, led this Republican toward aligning with a growing left-wing influence among African Americans propelled by the intensified impoverishment brought by the Great Depression.

Abstract:
The success of the Bolshevik Revolution confirmed that economic backwardness was not necessarily an obstacle for socialism, as it triggered the radicalization of leftist movements in the region. Yet this also led to polarization of the left on questions of Soviet-Russian developments and possible cooperation with non-socialist parties, as well as agrarian and national questions. While in many countries social democracy entered the political mainstream in the 1920s, its position was undermined by the rise of right-wing authoritarianism. In turn, the Great Depression made the communist position more plausible, but the Stalinization of communist parties and the imposition of socialist realism alienated most intellectual supporters. Eventually, some radical leftists turned against the communist movement attacking its dogmatism and the Stalinist show trials. At the same time, the rise of Nazism forced leftist groups to seek a common ground, first in the form of “Popular Front” ideology, and, during the war, in the form of armed partisan movements.

The Conclusion considers how the developments outlined in the previous chapters have been foundational not only for the modern psychiatric concepts ‘mood disorder’ and ‘clinical depression’, but also more broadly for classification and clinical practice in twentieth- and twenty-first-century psychiatry. Finally, the book turns the spotlight to the politics of psychiatric classification, and asks what is at work, and at stake, when psychiatry tries to label, classify, and diagnose psychological distress.

AbstractWestern culture tends to view depression more often than not as something to be avoided and eradicated. Yet there are individuals who have been through the journey of depression, diagnosis and treatment who challenge this view. In what follows, Jane recounts her story in which depression becomes a catalyst for understanding herself and her past. The insight she gained, in turn, led to self-growth—all of which she would not have gained had she not become depressed. Jane’s story also emphasises the importance of looking to the context of one’s depression—a view which presents a challenge to the current focus on the symptomatology of depression in medical manuals such as the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. Jane felt that understanding the context in which her depression arose, which she achieved through talking therapy, was key to her recovery. Jane shows us what we potentially lose with our current focus, and the value that may actually be gained from the journey into and out of depression.

Abstract:
Abstract This book chapter dicsusses the data, methodological strategies, and findings, and the final section concludes with a discussion of key policy implications and directions for future research regarding climate change, livelihoods, and domestic violence in Indonesia. This study argues that climate shocks in Indonesia elevate the incidence of domestic violence via their impact on agriculture and agrarian livelihoods. Those relying on agriculture as a primary income source in Indonesia-approximately 41% of the population=suffer when climatic stress diminishes earnings through job loss and reduced crop yields. The impact can reduce food security, especially for subsistence farmers, but also for the broader population when scarcity elevates local food prices. Food already consumes 70% of household budgets for half the population, with rice comprising the largest share-over 25% of total household expenditures for the poorest quintile. Thus, even minor reductions in yields or inflation in local rice markets can have dire effects. These impacts are anticipated to exacerbate social and psychological pressures-stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse-commonly associated with domestic and intimate partner violence, which in turn should increase its incidence within affected regions. This study uses data from the Global SPEI database and the NVMS to model the relationship between climate change and domestic violence in Indonesia. It finds that positive and negative deviations from long-term climate averages, when occurring in December-the core month of the Indonesian rice-planting season-increase the incidence of domestic violence in the following year. This relationship likely reflects the negative impact of climate shocks on agricultural sectors and livelihoods, an outcome which aggravates the emotional and psychological preconditions for domestic violence and abuse, disproportionately diminishes women's bargaining power in the household, and reduces women's ability to escape abusive situations. These effects are especially prominent in areas with higher levels of poverty, further illustrating the economic dimension of the causal process.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter considers the role of several psychological and environmental factors in depression. One key factor is stressful life events, which often but not always precede episodes of depression. Life stress may precipitate depression. In turn, there is evidence that depression can generate stress in a person’s life. Similarly, negative thinking patterns are elevated in depressed persons, and negative thinking may also be a cause of depression. Research and treatment studies are unlocking the varied connections between cognition and depression. Finally, depression and mood problems are often closely tied to relationship problems, such as marital and family difficulties. The importance of social connections is often revealed in interpersonal therapies for depression. In many cases, depression can result from the interplay between stressful life events, negative thinking, and relationship problems. The chapter closes with special consideration of adversity during childhood and the ways that childhood adversity might increase psychological and environmental risk for depression during adulthood.

Abstract:
In general, the Czech and Slovak Republic are among the countries with increased alcohol consumption. It is clear that increased consumption can predict the occurrence of negative consequences that may subsequently be associated with various mental disorders. One of these mental disorders is depression, which is common in young adults and brings difficulties into their lives that can turn into problems in the future. The study examined the relationship between alcohol-related consequences and depressive symptoms in a sample of university students from the Czech and Slovak Republics in order to map the situation in these regions, where this problem is still ignored (n = 2514; CZE = 47.5%). The research included data from standardized questionnaires, namely the Young Adult Alcohol Consequences Questionnaire (YAACQ), which can predict alcohol use problems, and Health Questionnaire of depression (PHQ-9). The data was collected during the COVID-19 pandemic. Regarding sex differences, a higher YAACQ score was found in males and, conversely, a higher PHQ-9 score was identified in females. The results of correlation and regression analyses revealed significant associations between the scores in the individual YAACQ subscales and the PHQ-9 score, while low to moderate correlations were found in most cases. In all cases, positive trajectories were identified, meaning that the increased risk of depressive disorder can be associated with experience in selected dimensions of alcohol-related consequences. Stronger associations occurred in females than in males. In terms of practical implications, high priority was given to prevention programs and counseling. Professionals’ efforts to help young people should be sex-oriented, while females were more vulnerable to depression, males were prone to the consequences of alcohol use.

Abstract:
The aim of this chapter is to provide you with the knowledge to be able to recognize, assess, manage, and care for people with depression in an evidence-based and person-centred way. Depression is disabling and causes significant impact upon many areas of the person’s day-to-day functioning; it is therefore important that nurses have the knowledge and skills to recognize whether someone might be depressed and know how to take the appropriate course of action. This chapter will provide a comprehensive overview of the causes and impact of depression, before exploring best practice to deliver care, as well as to prevent or to minimize further ill-health. Nursing assessments and priorities are highlighted throughout, and the nursing management of the symptoms and common health problems associated with depression can be found in Chapter 14….I lost my balance. I fell flat on my face and I couldn’t get up again. And if that implies a certain grace, a slow and easy free-fall, then you have me wrong. It was violent and painful and, above all humiliating . . . I came to understand that we are not simply fighting an illness, but the attitudes that surround it. Imagine saying to someone that you have a life-threatening illness such as cancer, and being told to pull yourself together or get over it. Imagine being terribly ill and too afraid to tell anyone lest it destroy your career. Imagine being admitted into hospital because you are too ill to function and being too ashamed to tell anyone, because it is a psychiatric hospital. Imagine telling someone that you have recently been discharged and watching them turn away, in embarrassment or disgust or fear. Bad enough to be ill, but to feel compelled to deny the very thing that, in its worst and most active state, defines you is agony indeed. (Sally Brampton (2008) in Shoot The Damn Dog.)…Sally’s experience of her depressive episode from her memoir sets the scene of just what people with depression can experience and how big an impact it can have upon their lives. We may all feel low and ‘fed up’ at times, and often we use the term ‘depressed’ as an adjective to describe how we are feeling in general conversation.

Abstract:
In recent years, the demand for more efficient psychiatric diagnostics and treatments has stimulated an unprecedented effort in clinical, genetic, and imaging research with the goal to realize the promise of precision medicine and develop new therapeutic approaches. Major depressive disorder (MDD), which is highly prevalent and ranks among the top causes of disability worldwide, has been one of the central subjects in this story. Since the turn of the millennium, researchers began to amalgamate methods from psychiatric genetics and clinical neuroimaging to uncover the effects of genetic variation at the level of brain function, structure or connectivity. This line of research, imaging genetics, matured to a distinct research field that became a major force in the quest for understanding the neurobiology underlying MDD and the implications of the serotonergic system. This chapter provides an overview of the development and impact of imaging genetics research with a focus on MDD and the serotonergic system and discusses the barriers and solutions on the way to clinical implementation.

Abstract:
Sally Laden helped turn the disease of depression into a gold mine. Laden was the world’s most influential female “psychopharmacologist,” and each of her creations began with an intonation about the terrible depression epidemic sweeping the globe. In psychiatry, the depression market had proven so huge that extending it to children would be desirable. Therefore, the pediatric exclusivity provision, which provided drug makers with 6 months of patent extension in exchange for conducting trials in the pediatric population, was welcomed by industry. Four major SSRI makers struggled to get into the pediatric depression market from 2000 to 2004. GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), which made the SSRI Paxil (paroxetine), conceived several trials in pediatric depression, and Sally Laden was assigned to write up one trial, #329.

Abstract:
Introduction: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is often preceded or accompanied by neuropsychiatric symptoms, including depression. This fact has been evaluated in most of the clinical studies to date as associated with HIV infection already diagnosed. Case report: We report a case of a 46-year-old woman patient with no prior diagnosed pathology, suffering from depressive disorder for roughly 6 months, with a progressive evolution under treatment. Blood tests showed a moderate normochromic normocytic anemic syndrome of unspecified origin. Given the fact that depressive syndrome has not improved under treatment, a cerebral computed tomography (CT) scan and a cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are decided, revealing an expansive cerebral process which in turn recommends performing stereotactic biopsy, but the family of the patient refuses the procedure. The patient is neurologically evaluated and after considering the cerebral MRI pattern and the presence of anemia, an HIV and syphilis detection test is decided, revealing a positive result for HIV infection. An antiretroviral therapy has been initiated, resulting in favorable clinical and imaging outcomes. Conclusions: Each patient and each case are individual and is to be approached as such. Depression in a progressive evolution under treatment requires imaging evaluation (cerebral CT scan, ideally cerebral MRI).

Abstract:
Background: Depression is one of the major mental disorders experienced by people of various age groups and works of life all over the world. Those in the medical field are not excluded. With the intense training and high level of physical, mental and emotional demands placed on medical students, they tend to become depressed. This not only affects their learning process or overall academic performance; it also affects them professionally in the future, which in turn would lead to compromise in patient care. In The Gambia, there is a lack of data on the prevalence of depression and the impacts it has on medical students. Thus, this study assessed the prevalence of depression among students of the American International University West Africa (AIUWA), The Gambia. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out among medical students of AIUWA over a two-month period (June to July 2021). A self-structured questionnaire was used to obtain information on sociodemographic characteristics. Diagnosis of depression was assessed using the 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9). A total of 100 students were included in this study. Data was analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 26. Results: The overall prevalence of depression among the participants was 36%, with PHQ-9 scores ≥ 10. With regards to the severity of depression, 26 (26%), 21 (21%), 11 (11%), and 4(4%) students were classified as having mild, moderate, moderately severe, and severe depression respectively. Efficiency of monthly allowance (p = 0.022, Φ = 0.251, V= 0.251), self-rated academic performance (p = 0.012, Φ = 0.297, V = 0.297) and prior history of depression (p = 0.001, Φ = 0.347, V = 0.347), were independently associated with depression. Conclusion: The prevalence of depression among medical students of the American International University, is high, and is associated with inefficient monthly allowance, consumption of alcohol, average academic performance and prior history of depression. It is recommended that there should be an implementation of a guidance and counseling department within the university., Keywords: Depression, Medical Students, AIUWA, University, West Africa Proceedings Reference Format

Abstract:
Scientific and technological progress in general and its manifestation: digitalization, automation and robotization can completely destroy labor as a factor of production in the very near future. This threatens the process of social reproduction with colossal deformations, which, in turn, are capable of pushing the global economy into an endless depression. Overcoming these threats creates new incentives for the development of the mechanisms of the "knowledge economy" and, in particular, for the formation, within the framework of the latter, of an effective functional alternative to work in the traditional sense.

Abstract:
An experimental investigation of pulsatile flow through a tapered U-tube was performed to study the blood flow in the aorta. The experiments were carried out in a U-tube with a curvature radius ratio of 3.5 and a 50% reduction in the cross-sectional area from the entrance to the exit of the curved section. Velocity measurements were conducted by a laser Doppler velocimetry for a Womersley number of 10, a mean Dean number of 400 and a flow rate ratio of 1. The velocity profiles for pulsatile flow in the tapered U-tube were compared with the corresponding results in a U-tube having a uniform cross-sectional area. The striking effects of the tapering on the flow are exhibited in the axial velocity profiles in the section from the latter half of the bend to the downstream tangent immediately behind the bend exit. A depression in the velocity profile appears at a smaller turn angle Ω in the case of tapering, although the magnitude of the depression relative to the cross-sectional average velocity decreases. The value of β, which indicates the uniformity in the velocity profile over the cross section, decreases with increasing Ω, whereas it rapidly increases immediately behind the bend exit.

Abstract:
Abstract Tribological properties such as lubrication, friction and wear resistance are important to improve machine operating efficiency, machine performances and machine life. To improve tribological properties of sliding surface, scraping is available. Scraping fabricates many small depression on target surface evenly, the depression will function oil hole which promote lubrication of flat bearing surface. Many researchers have reported the surface texturing method which aim is similar to scraping. For example, the techniques fast tool servo turning with diamond insert tool and turn mill processing by dual spindle turning center were reported to fabricate periodically micro dimple. However, these techniques employ expensive high precision machine tools. This paper introduces a more cheaply and rapidly surface texturing technique which employs ultrasonic vibration turning to obtain low friction surface and improve tribological properties. In ultrasonic turning, cutting tool tip is vibrated in principal direction and radial direction simultaneously origin from poisons deformation of ultrasonic transducer. The radial direction tool vibration functions to squeeze workpiece surface in workpiece radial direction periodically, textured surface will be obtained. The results of ultrasonic turning experiments, textured surfaces were obtained. In order to evaluate the tribological performance of the turned surface, friction coefficient between stainless steel pin and turned surface were measured under oil dipping condition. It was confirmed that friction coefficient of ultrasonic turned surface is drastically reduced compared with ordinary turned surface. And proposed technique is available to perform surface texturing for several materials.
