Abstract:
Cerebral infarction or ischemic death of brain tissue, most notably neurons, is a primary response to vascular occlusion that if minimized leads to better stroke outcome. However, many cell types are affected in the brain during ischemia and reperfusion, including vascular cells of the cerebral circulation. Importantly, the structure and function of all brain vascular segments are major determinants of the depth of ischemia during the occlusion, the extent of collateral flow (and therefore amount of potentially salvageable tissue) and the degree of reperfusion. Thus, appropriate function of the cerebral circulation can influence stroke outcome. The brain vasculature is also directly involved in secondary injury to ischemia, including edema, hemorrhage, and infarct expansion, and provides a key delivery route for neuroprotective agents. Therefore, the cerebral circulation provides a therapeutic target for multiple aspects of stroke injury, including aiding neuroprotection. Understanding how ischemia and reperfusion affect the brain vasculature is key to this therapeutic potential, that is, vascular protection. This report is focused on regional differences in the cerebral circulation, how ischemia and reperfusion differentially affects these segments, and how the response of large versus small vessels in the brain to ischemia and reperfusion can influence stroke outcome. Last, how chronic hypertension, a common comorbidity in patients with stroke, affects the brain microvasculature to worsen stroke outcome will be described.

The aimy of this study is to understand the concept of fermentation contained in treaties of the doctor and natural philosopher, seventeenth century, Thomas Willis. Therefore, we outlined in the first chapter, some of the central aspects of the Willis biography such as institutional places and social circles and studies attended in the English Civil War context. In the second chapter, we analyze the set of scientific sources that influenced our author. Our intention was to understand how such sources formed the thinking and the work of Willis, above all, that was the object of our last chapter: Diatribae duae medicophilosophicae - quarum prior agit of fermentatione. In the third chapter, we analyze the first five chapters of the treaty, in which Willis provides the basis and justification of fermentation processes. In this regard, we note that the "doctrine of fermentation" - considered by essential Willis for the understanding of all the transformations throughout the "sublunar world" - was, in fact, fundamental to their studies in a continuous manner and since the beginning of your career

Abstract:
A presente pesquisa trata da análise da fundação da Neurologia. A maioria das obras que abordam o assunto a partir de uma perspectiva histórica, sobretudo, aquelas que privilegiam uma visão positivista, para a qual a investigação caminharia em direção a um ponto estático, tendem a alcançar o médico inglês seiscentista, Thomas Willis, como o inconteste precursor dessa já estabelecida especialidade médica. Nossa proposta é a de desconstruir essa ideia. A nosso ver, a historicidade do discurso científico estaria sempre em constante expansão e também em uma contínua transformação, pois diferentemente do ideal positivista, o instaurador do que Foucault designava como cientificidade não seria o descobridor de um objeto dado desde sempre, na medida em que seria enganoso supor uma história natural de um objeto cultural o objeto da história das ciências. Resta-nos, portanto, tentar compreender o sentido em que Willis funda o que ele mesmo denominava Doutrina dos Nervos. Entendemos que Willis instituiu um novo arquivo audiovisual, ou seja, uma nova articulação entre o visível e o enunciável, no que tange aos nervos. Propomos, enfim, que no horizonte da fundação a nova imbricação entre forma de representação e forma de vida emerge no mesmo processo em que Willis se consagra como um autor médico e cientista dos nervos.
The object of this inquiry is to analyze the adequacy with which the foundation of the medical specialty of neurology has been ascribed to the English doctor and scientist Thomas Willis (1621-1675). Most studies on the beginnings of this specialty favor an historical, and particularly an historical positivistic perspective of the matter, looking for a stationary point in time, which coincided with the studies performed by Thomas Willis. My purpose in this inquiry is to deconstruct this approach. I support the view that in history of the science the historicity, rather than something fixed, keeps a continuing expansion and is permanently transforming itself; for unlike what is proposed by the positivistic ideal, the establisher of what Foucault called scientificity should not be considered the person who uncovered an object which ever lay there; because, dealing the history of science with a cultural subject, it would be misleading to approach the initial studies on neurology with the perspective proper to natural history. In this work, I am propounding a new meaning for the foundation by Willis of what he called The Doctrine of the Nerves. As I see it, Willis set up something like a new audiovisual archive, that is, a new articulation of the visible with the enunciable, in relation to the nerves. In the proposed new meaning, the superposing in the same process in which Willis was consecrated as an auctor, a physician and a scientist of the nerves.

Abstract:
Thomas Willis is commonly used as a touchstone for the modern brain sciences: his Cerebri anatome (1664) is celebrated as having placed the brain on its 'modern footing,' while Willis is referred to as the 'founding father' of neuroscience. Driven by a set of present-centred and medically orientated concerns, great emphasis has traditionally been placed upon Willis's neuro-anatomy as a precursor to our own ways of thinking about the 'neurological brain'. Such approaches have tended to neglect Willis's broader theoretical contributions, particularly his physiological theories, or have failed to consider how (distinctly early modern) concepts around the soul informed Willis's interpretation of the anatomical brain. This thesis re-examines Willis through his use of metaphors and analogies, exploring the relationship between his use of language and his physical practices around the brain (dissection, chemical experiment). Although recent scholarship on Willis has turned to social or cultural history approaches, there has yet to be a detailed examination of Willis's use of language. Ideas around the appropriate use of metaphor and analogy in scientific writing have long informed responses to Willis. His credibility has been undermined by suggestions of theoretical embellishment and imaginative speculation - charges that necessarily pick up on the use of analogical reasoning. In contrast, this thesis argues that Willis's concept of the brain cannot be viewed independently of the ways in which it was described and represented: rather than mere ornaments, metaphor and analogy were an essential part of Willis's conceptual architecture and tools by which the brain (as an object of knowledge) was made to exist in the world. Willis's use of language embeds his knowledge within a specific set of intellectual, cultural and material contexts of the late seventeenth century. His ideas around the brain cannot, therefore, be straightforwardly appropriated as part of our own understanding of neurology.

Abstract:
William Thomas Sutherlin was born on April 7, 1822 in Pittsylvania County, Virginia. He worked in tobacco on his father's farm until 1843. He then moved to Danville and embarked on a career in tobacco manufacturing. Sutherlin's ventures in the tobacco industry allowed him to become the second wealthiest man in the state of Virginia. In 1849, Sutherlin married Jane Erwin Patrick of Greensboro, N. C. Seven years later the couple moved to their newly built country manor which has been preserved as a museum today. Sutherlin generously supported numerous industries in his hometown and constantly strove to protect the interests of his fellow Danvillians. In 1851, he began his illustrious career as a public servant. He served on the Danville Council from 1851-1855 and as Danville's mayor from 1855 to 1861. The year 1861 found Sutherlin expanding his political interests. He was one of Pittsylvania County's two delegates to the Virginia State Convention of that year.

Full text
Abstract:
The problems of happiness in the theological and philosophical heritage of the outstanding medieval scientist St. Thomas Aquinas are considered. The main source and basis of happiness according to Thomism is the Lord God himself. Happiness cannot be fully comprehended in the material world, in wealth, in intellectual knowledge. Human happiness does not consist in honors, in human glory, strength, goodness and pleasures of the body. Happiness is realized in human virtue. Happiness does not consist in human feelings, but it is revealed in thoughts about God. Man will experience perfect happiness in another supernatural world through contemplation of God, who is the highest good and truth. The teachings of the Catholic Church on the understanding of happiness are analyzed. Attention is drawn to the Message of Pope Francis on the occasion of World Youth Day in 2015. It is pointed out that God himself placed “in the heart of every man an unbridled desire for happiness and fullness”. Ten key topics that guide a person to achieve true supernatural, eternal happiness are considered. Ways to live in happiness through a state of joy, love, friendship, humor, gratitude, the ability to forgive and ask for forgiveness are offered. In trying to achieve a happy state, it is important to rely on God in everything, as well as to realize that we are loved. KEYWORDS: Toma Aquinsky, happiness, knowledge, will, love, goodness, joy.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract It is now widely recognized that destabilizing forces, tending to generate forward rotor whirl, are generated in axial flow turbines as a result of the non-uniform torque induced by the non-uniform tip-clearance in a deflected rotor — the so called Thomas/Alford force (Thomas, 1958 and Alford, 1965). It is also recognized that there will be a similar effect in axial flow compressors, but qualitative considerations cannot definitively establish the magnitude or even the direction of the induced whirling forces — that is, if they will tend to forward or backward whirl. Applying a “parallel compressor” model to simulate the operation of a compressor rotor deflected radially in its clearance, it is possible to derive a quantitative estimate of the proportionality factor β which relates the Thomas/Alford force in axial flow compressors (i.e., the tangential force generated by a radial deflection of the rotor) to the torque level in the compressor. The analysis makes use of experimental data from the GE Aircraft Engines Low Speed Research Compressor facility comparing the performance of three different axial flow compressors, each with four stages (typical of a mid-block of an aircraft gas turbine compressor) at two different clearances (expressed as a percent of blade length) — CL/L = 1.4% and CL/L = 2.8%. It is found that the value of β is in the range of +0.27 to −0.71 in the vicinity of the stages’ nominal operating line and +0.08 to −1.25 in the vicinity of the stages’ operation at peak efficiency. The value of β reaches a level of between −1.16 and −3.36 as the compressor is operated near its stalled condition. The final result bears a very strong resemblance to the correlation obtained by improvising a normalization of the experimental data of Vance and Laudadio (1984) and a generic relationship to the analytic results of Colding-Jorgensen (1990).

Abstract:
In recent years, the development of frontier areas brings added challenges to formation evaluation, especially thinly bedded reservoirs. It is challenging to evaluate such reservoirs due to the low resistivity values and high shale volume, which masks the contrast between water and hydrocarbon zones. Using conventional approaches in these types of reservoirs will underestimate the hydrocarbon potential and reserves estimates. A study has been carried out of the thin-bed laminated reservoir in B-field using the tensor model technique to assess the hydrocarbon potential. Additional data from borehole imaging and sonic logs are critical for enhancing the evaluation of hydrocarbon potential and complements the result of the tensor model evaluation. The study was conducted to calculate the sand resistivity and sand porosity using a combination of the tensor model and the Thomas-Stieber model. The tensor model uses acquired horizontal and vertical resistivities, while the Thomas-Stieber model uses the calculated shale volume and porosity. One of the main parameters in the tensor model is shale resistivity, which upon analysis, varies across many shale sections in the well. This uncertainty is reduced by picking multiple shale resistivity values based on borehole image facies analysis. The VPVS ratio technique and Brie’s plot using compressional and shear travel time are used as a qualitative analysis that indicates the same gas-bearing interval. The tensor model calculations improve hydrocarbon saturation by a range of 4-21%, depending on sand thickness and shale volume, which increases the net to gross by more than 20%. The borehole image facies analysis helps to objectively pick the shale resistivity parameters to avoid subjective interpretation and underestimating the pay. A qualitative approach using sonic data helps to identify the potential gas-bearing interval and complement the previous tensor model interpretation. Although all interpretation methods indicate a similar gas-bearing interval that correlates with the mudlog total gas reading, the combination of the tensor and Thomas-Stieber method with image constrained shale resistivities gives the most definitive gas saturation and net pay The novelty of this study is to showcase two things. First is the application of combined tensor and Thomas-Stieber model in a laminated reservoir, with image constrained shale resistivity for improved gas saturation and net pay. The second is to highlight the use of gas-sensitive sonic data to confirm the gas saturated interval.

Abstract:
Статья посвящена практически не изученной в отечественной историографии фигуре – ак-трисе, писательнице, драматургу и литературному критику Элизабет Инчбальд (1753–1821), кото-рая в 1790-е годы XVIII века, когда во Франции разыгрывались драматические события револю-ции, входила в тесный круг английских политических радикалов, к которому принадлежали Уильям Годвин, Томас Холкрофт и другие, и в своих произведениях отразила политический дис-курс эпохи. The article is devoted to an almost unknown figure in Russian historiography – the actress, writer, playwright and literary critic Elizabeth Inchbald, who in the 1790s of the XVIIIth century, when the dramatic events of the revolution were played out in France, was part of a close circle of English political radicals, to which William Godwin, Thomas Holcroft and others belonged, and in her works reflected the political discourse of the epoch.

Abstract:
Modern image detectors have attained the ultimate in sensitivity, enabling single-photon events to be seen. An array of such detectors may be used to form a "photon count" image, such as on the left in Fig. 1. If such a photo also suffers from blur, how well can it be restored to the ideal object on the right? We shall take a Bayesian1 view and seek the maximum probable (m.a.p.) and mean probable (m.m.s.e.) estimates of the object. This approach marries the known physics of photon image formation to estimation theory, a match which the Rev. Thomas Bayes himself might have blessed. As will be seen, it allows ultimate questions to be asked on object structure, even in cases of severe photon depletion.

Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is, to provide the non-linear biodynamic response of thorax through the analytical and numerical simulation methods. Adult thorax data considering sagittal and coronal stiffness in addition to soft and hard tissue material properties will undergo CPR impulsive loading. The numerical simulation is conducted using finite element analysis (FEA) software for modeling biomechanical correct Thorax model to CPR transient loading. AMTI force plate was utilized to record the CPR forces, it accounts for realistic load evaluation during CPR procedure. A dynamic model for numerical simulation includes resonance frequency, damping coefficient, stiffness constant and extinction time for a different kind of physique. The model deflections and forces were analyzed. The maximum deflection obtained from mathematical modelling and ANSYS is found closely related. The result strongly depends on the modeling of the thorax which is used in the numerical simulation. This indicates the necessity of the correlation of the results with the experimental data if available.

Abstract:
Exciting forces generated in gas seals and blading of turbo-machinery can lead to vibrations of the rotor with unacceptably high amplitudes (Thomas [1958], Alford [1965]). It is important to predict in an early design stage the stability limit of the rotor so as to avoid the occurrence of self-excited vibrations. In the field, there are only few possibilities to stabilize the rotor. One way minimizing the cross-forces is by injecting air into the seal and counteracting the exciting mechanisms. The paper will present experimental dynamic coefficients of a gas seal of the teeth on stator type with eight cavities. The coefficients will be compared to the values obtained with a tangential injection of air into the first cavity in co-rotating and in counter-rotating direction. It seems that the impact of air injection is not as effective as swirl brakes or honeycomb stators.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: To identify how much and what is already known about health-seeking behavior (HSB) among the Arab patients who experienced infertility. Our purpose is to map and describe the studies that have been done and what they assessed concerning HSB among patients who experienced infertility. This includes the studies which address the factors affecting HSB. This review is conducted to display gaps in HSB literature and to inform a systematic review in the Arab countries. Condition being studied: The review will study research articles which addressed the HSB among couples, men, or women suffering from infertility. We adopted the definition of HSB by Ward et al. (1997) which is the actions undertaken by the patients who perceive themselves as infertile for the purpose to conceive and get children (Ward, Mertens, & Thomas, 1997). This could be any action ranged from neglect to seeking advanced infertility care. We will study the operational definition of HSB in each study, HSB model, rate of seeking medical care and type of care sought, other sources of help sought, and factors influencing HSB. In addition, we will describe how HSB was studied by defining the characteristics of the retrieved studies including design, setting, participants, and sample size, and infertility operational definition.

Abstract:
Glen Canyon National Recreation Area (GLCA) encompasses more than 0.5 million ha (1.25 million ac) and extends over 322 km (200 mi) from its northern boundary in southern Utah to its southern boundary in northern Arizona. It is one of the most rugged, remote, and floristically diverse national parks on the Southern Colorado Plateau (Thomas et. al 2005) and has more than 4,900 km (3,045 mi) of waterways flowing through its eight Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC 8) watersheds. GLCA’s larger perennial rivers include the Colorado, Escalante, Dirty Devil, San Juan, and Paria, with smaller perennial and intermittent streams flowing into each of these rivers. After the creation of the Glen Canyon Dam, Lake Powell formed, covering 13% of the park’s total land area when full and the national recreation area attracts over 4 million visitors annually, and in 2019 GLCA ranked 19th highest in recreational visits out of all national parks. The National Park Service Natural Resource Condition Assessment Program selected GLCA to pilot its new NRCA project series. NRCA projects evaluate the best available science to provide park managers with reliable, actionable information pertaining to natural resource conditions in their park. For the park-selected focal study resources, this includes consideration of drivers and stressors known or suspected of influencing resource conditions; assessment of current conditions and trends for indicators of condition; and potential near-term and future activities or actions managers can consider, improving their knowledge and management of natural resources in parks. For focal resources that lack adequate data to assess current conditions, a gap analysis is provided (in lieu of a condition assessment) to highlight the present status of knowledge of the resource and to suggest useful indicators, data, and studies for further consideration and investigation. Park managers are encouraged to identify information needs and pose questions during the NRCA scoping process, with the understanding that information will be provided to help address those needs and answer those questions when possible. For a comprehensive list of GLCA managers’ questions and needs, please refer to Appendix A, Table A-1. The focus of GLCA’s NRCA study was the water-dependent resources—tinajas, springs & seeps, including water quality, riparian zone, amphibians, including the northern leopard frog (Lithobates pipiens), and small, native fishes—that are found off the mainstem Colorado River. Managers were interested in these particular environments and the natural resources that depend on them because they are less studied, and the habitats are “biodiversity hotspots” due to the intersection of complex desert and freshwater ecosystems in a region limited by water. The following summaries highlight the key findings of GLCA’s focal resource drivers and stressors (Chapter 2), states (Chapter 3), and manager responses (Chapter 4).
