(1) The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the value of combined aerodynamic and endoscopic examination of velopharyngeal function in the revision of prosthetic speech appliances.
(2) Tracheobronchial deposition of inhaled particles in rabbit lung was studied after exposure to monodisperse aerosols 4--9 micrometer (aerodynamic diameter).
(3) In addition an alternate model, consisting of a single circular cylinder, is presented that simplifies the determination of total aerodynamics drag.
(4) However, only a small proportion of the variability in these aerodynamic measurements could be accounted for based on the classification of hypernasality or normal nasal resonance.
(5) Dynamic fractionation of the output from pressurized aerosols using a four-stage liquid impinger showed that the respirable fraction (as measured by the percentage of emitted droplets with aerodynamic diameters less than 5.5 microns) was highly dependent on SPC concentration and R. A significant correlation between RF and actuator score, based on orifice diameter and length, was also found and confirmed that the highest RF values were achieved with the systems of lowest SPC and water concentrations sprayed through an actuator with the smallest and shortest orifice dimensions.
(6) Samples of ash from eastern bituminous coal, western bituminous coal and mid-western bituminous coal with aerodynamic equivalent diameters of less than 15 micron were examined, and the measured emanation coefficients ranged from 0.098 down to 0.007.
(7) From our studies, it is apparent that: (1) a significant difference in air pressure patterns exists between normal speakers and those with vocal cord paralysis, (2) the respiratory apparatus tends to alter normally constant airflow in cases of vocal fold paralysis and (3) either voice therapy or teflon cord injection will significantly alter the aerodynamic relationships from the untreated paralyzed state.
(8) You can drive economically and get somewhere quickly as well" How to get the most from your fuel Shut your windows and turn off the air con You can leave windows open at speeds below 40mph, where there is a minimal increase in fuel-sapping aerodynamic drag.
(9) With reference to the functional importance of the vestibular region, it is recommended that only such operative methods should be practiced for the reconstruction of the ala nasi as take into account the aerodynamics of the vestibular region.
(10) Particles with a mass median aerodynamic diameter of 4.8 microns were produced for inhalation by (a) tidal breathing, (b) six tidal breaths followed by three deep breaths, and (c) six tidal breaths followed by three deep breaths with a five second breath hold after each breath.
(11) Personal air samples, collected with a two-stage impactor, allowed aerosol masses to be measured in three size fractions: less than 3.5 microns, 3.5-9.8 microns, and greater than 9.8 microns aerodynamic diameter.
(12) An important determinant of CAM performance is the ability of the inlet and body of the CAM to transport particulate matter in the inhalable-size range (less than or equal to 10 microns aerodynamic diameter) to the filter without substantial loss or bias with respect to particulate size.
(13) The aerosol had a mean aerodynamic diameter of 0.8 to 1.2 mu with a sigma(g) of 1.6 to 1.9.
(14) We found no indication that from an acoustical and aerodynamical point of view, the Staffieri procedure should be preferred over other alaryngeal voice production methods.
(15) The second important function of the larynx is to serve as a transducer of aerodynamic to acoustic energy; the voice function.
(16) The maximum power output, calculated from the muscle properties, is adequate for the aerodynamic power requirements.
(17) Histamine aerosol caused a similar dose-dependent increase in resistance of aerodynamically large and small airways and fall in dynamic compliance.
(18) This generated aerosol droplets with a mass median aerodynamic diameter of 0.8 micron (GSD 1.5) and 98% were less than 3.9 microns.
(19) Even when unlocked, the aerobrake should not have come on until either pilot operated another lever, but one theory is that aerodynamic forces pushed the braking system into position almost immediately.
(20) Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) concentration in airborne particulate also varies with the aerodynamic diameter of the particles.

(n.) A streak.
(n.) An iron band by which the fellies of a wheel are secured to each other, being not continuous, as the tire is, but made up of separate pieces.
(n.) One breadth of planks or plates forming a continuous range on the bottom or sides of a vessel, reaching from the stem to the stern; a streak.
(n.) A trough for washing broken ore, gravel, or sand; a launder.
Example Sentences:
(1) The program is able to calculate ventricular indexes (strake volume, ejection fraction, circumferential velocity of fiber shortening), continuous functions (istantaneous ventricular diameter and volume, wall thickness, velocity of cavity compression and dilation) and, correlating the echo data with pressure values, circumferential stresss and ventricular compliance.
