The objective of our work is to evaluate our functional results, in the medium term, correlated with a review of the literature. This is a retrospective study of 63 patients, carried out in the traumatology-orthopedics department 1 of the IBN EL JAZZAR hospital in KAIROUAN, over a period of 7 years from January 2015 to December 2021. The average age of patients was 39 years (17 - 68 years). Predominantly male. The etiologies are dominated by falls and accidents on public roads. Fractures are classified according to the Müller and Allgöwer classification where type C is found in 51% of cases. All our patients undergo an olecranon osteotomy in 71% of cases. Osteosynthesis using a Lecestre plate combined with screwing or plugging is used in 84% of cases. The evolution is marked by complications observed in eight patients (16%), including two cases of sepsis, four cases of elbow stiffness (8%), one case of joint callus and one case of pseudarthrosis. Our results are evaluated according to the Mayo Elbow Performance Score, they are excellent and good in 71% of cases, average in 18% of cases and poor in 11% of cases. Fractures of the humeral paddle are fractures with a satisfactory functional prognosis, requiring ad integrum anatomical restoration and solid osteosynthesis allowing early rehabilitation of the elbow. One case of joint callus and one case of pseudarthrosis.展开更多

In general, the ability to increase the suspension rate and minimize depositioneffects is instrumental in improving the uniformity of particle mixing, accelerating the reaction of involved solidliquid two-phase, and improving the efficiency of production operations. In this work, suspension and depositionindicator based on the Betti number and a uniformity indicator are introduced and obtained by means of imageanalysis. The influence of the blade type, rotation speed, blade diameter and blade bottom height on the particlesuspension/deposition characteristics and mixing uniformity are carefully investigated. The experimental resultsshow that the two-phase motion region can be divided into three local regions, including a bottom motion alongthe wall, a low-degree suspension region under the blade and a high suspension region above the blade. The bestdegree of particle suspension is attained by the double-inclined blade paddle at a speed of 270 r/min, a paddlediameter ratio of 0.414, and a height-diameter ratio of 0.086. The double-inclined blade paddle has a better effecton promoting particle suspension and solid-liquid two-phase mixing uniformity.展开更多

First, different fluid flows were established by varying stirring speeds, reactor scales, and agitator paddle design, and the effects of each on particle size and distribution of prepared microcapsules were determined. The experimental results showed that the pattern design of orifices in the plate paddles control the flow field well. Narrow particle-size distributio ns of the microcapsules were obtained. The fluid flow characteristics including fluid velocity field, turbulent kinetic energy field, and shear stress distribution for thedifferent agitator paddle types in different reaction kettles were simulated using CFD tech no logy. The correlations between simulated data and experime ntal results were an alyzed. Significantly, the simulated average flow velocity was found to show good negative linear correlation w让h the average particle size of prepared microcapsules, with a correlation of y =-2.166x + 42.626.展开更多

The paddle wheel dimensions used in this work are one-thirtieth scale of the full-size paddle wheel. The reason for simulating the scaled-down model was to prepare for the testing of a scaled-down physical prototype. Computational Fluid Dynamics using ANSYS Fluent 14.0 software was used for the computational analysis. The scaled-down dimensions were used in the simulations to predict the power that can be generated from the scaled size model of the paddle wheel, having carried out similitude analysis between the scaled down size and its full-size. The dimensionless parameters employed in achieving similitude are the Strouhal number, power coefficient, and pressure coefficient. The power estimation of the full-size was predicted from the scaled size of the paddle wheel based on the similitude analysis.展开更多

To get a better understanding of its drying mechanism, a penetration model developed by Tsotsas and Schlünder (1986) was used to simulate the drying kinetics of the PMS. The result indicated that this kinetics could be divided into three phases: pasty, lumpy and granular phases, and could be successfully simulated by the penetration model as the related sludge parameters were integrated into the model. The emission rate curves of the volatile compounds (VCs) were interrelated to the drying rate curve of the PMS, especially for volatile fatty acids (VFAs) and ammonia in this study.展开更多
