In this study, numerical simulations are employed to investigate the hydrodynamic performance and wake topology of a swimming Rhinoptera javanica.The study is motivated by the quest to understand the hydrodynamics of median and paired fin(MPF) mode with both spanwise and chordwise flexibility.The simulations employ an immersed boundary(IB)-simplifi
Analysis of the Resident Physician Program from Theory to Practice from the Perspective of Service Providers: A Qualitative Study
Background: To increase the accountability of hospitals and ensure that patients receive appropriate treatment at any time of the day, resident physicians perform the necessary diagnostic and therapeutic procedures during non-office hours.This study aimed to analyze the resident physician program from theory to practice.Methods: The present study w
Characterization and Antioxidant Activity Determination of Neutral and Acidic Polysaccharides from Panax Ginseng C. A. Meyer
Panax ginseng (P.ginseng) is the most widely consumed herbal plant in Asia and is well-known for its various pharmacological properties.Many studies have been devoted to this natural product.However, polysaccharide’s components of ginseng and their biological effects have not been widely studied.In this study, white ginseng neutral polysaccha
Estimation of mean movement rates for blue sharks in the northwestern Pacific Ocean
Abstract Background The blue shark Prionace glauca is a highly migratory species with a circumglobal distribution.Mean movement rate, defined by the horizontal tracking distance between two data points over the duration of time, is commonly used to understand the horizontal displacement of highly migratory species across a wide range.However, the e
The reliability of side to side measurements of upper extremity activity levels in healthy subjects
Abstract Background In both clinical and occupational settings, ambulatory sensors are becoming common for assessing all day measurements of arm motion.In order for the motion of a healthy, contralateral side to be used as a control for the involved side, the inherent side to side differences in arm usage must be minimal.The goal of the present stu
