Alteration in the capitellar morphology following pathologies such as fractures, osteochondrosis, and degenerative arthritis has been associated with less optimum functional results. Aim: To define the relationship between the sphericity of the capitellar morphology as measured on trauma series plain radiographs and the elbow range of motion. Methods: 40 patients were included in the study. All patients recruited from the upper limb clinics presented with non-elbow joint-related complaints. The elbow range of motion was measured using a standardized technique. Digital anteroposterior and lateral radiographs of patients’ elbows were used to measure capitellar circularity using the ImageJ processing program and circularity calculation equation. Correlation analyses were conducted between the degree of capitellar sphericity and elbow range of motion. Results: The results of measurements from the anteroposterior radiographs showed a positive correlation between increased circularity and an increase in the range of flexion, pronation, and supination. The range of extension decreased with the increased circularity of the capitellum. This trend was repeated with measures of lateral radiographs but was statistically not significant. Conclusion: Native capitellar circularity has an impact on the elbow range of motion. This should be put into consideration when dealing with pathologies that affect capitellar morphology.展开更多

This paper presents some aspects on the working process of a sieve, made of perforated sheet and having an outer conical surface with oscillatory circular motion （alternative） on the horizontal. Results are presented for some experimental researches on the movement of material on the sieve, for various kinematical parameters of the sieve （amplitude and oscillation frequency）. A conical sieve, suspended at the upper and lower in three points, was tested for screening of rapeseeds in order to estimate the influence of oscillation frequency on the screening process. Curves were drawn for separation intensity on the sieve generating line, and by regression analysis with normal distribution law were determined the equation coefficients and the correlation with experimental data. Movement of material on the sieve and its working process, in general, was appreciated by means of the peak position of distribution curve depending on the oscillation frequency of the sieve, considering that the normal distribution law correlates very well the data obtained by experiments.展开更多
