UHI 12 INSTRUMENTATION OF A WIND TUNNEL PROJECT BEng(Hons) Gaurab Ghosal ABSTRACT The wind tunnel being built in Scone airport is a closed loop wind tunnel. On completion this will provide a much needed facility for education purpose as it can be used by engineering students for aerodynamic evaluations. To conduct these evaluation proper evaluating tools needs to be setup. In this section the possible instruments that can be setup in this wind tunnel has been evaluated with Matlab based

Carotid Artery Disease and Stroke Oxygenated blood is carried from the heart to the face and brain by the carotid arteries one on each side of the neck. The carotid arteries (common) bifurcate and become the internal carotid artery (ICA) and the external carotid artery (ECA). Blood supply to the brain is mainly through the internal carotid artery and the vertebral arteries (1). Blood flow to the brain is affected by carotid artery disease. Carotid artery disease is the narrowing (stenosis) or

The treatment choice of coronary artery disease depends on the severity of the disease. Treatments include‚ but are not limited to lifestyle changes‚ drug therapy‚ percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty‚ and coronary bypass surgery. CAD is a chronic disease that will require lifelong care‚ it can be treated which aids in progression‚ but there is no cure. Although coronary artery disease cannot be cured‚ adequate lifestyle changes can prevent the disease from developing. Some of these lifestyle

Coronary arteries supply the heart with a constant supply of blood. These arteries are essential‚ providing oxygen and nutrients that keep the heart constantly pumping. Arteries have three layers including the external layer‚ tunica external‚ middle layer‚ tunica media and the inner layer‚ called the tunica intima. The outer layer is made up of connective tissue with elastic and collagenous fibers. Tunica media is the thickest layer composed of smooth muscle and can change the diameter of the arteries

man it was clear to come out of the tunnel. At one point‚ there was an air raid and the lights in the tunnel went out‚ the ‘Tunnel Kings’‚ Danny and Willie‚ the men who were in charge of creating the tunnel were traveling through. Danny was surprisingly claustrophobic and held up the tunnel momentarily during the best time to sneak out-during the dark. It was going smoothly until one man fell on his package he was taking with him. The guards heard him and the tunnel was shut down. The remaining hour

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) also called median nerve compression is a very common injury to the hand and wrist that causes numbness and tingling. More than 3 million cases of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome are reported each year in the United States . The carpal tunnel is a passageway from your wrist to your hand that consists of bones‚ tendons‚ ligaments‚ and the median nerve. The median nerve that passes through this tunnel is responsible for delivering sensations to the thumb

GOTTHARD BASE TUNNEL‚ SWITZERLAND 1. INTRODUCTION Currently under construction to stretch a record length of 57 km‚ the Gotthard Base tunnel located in Switzerland spans the north of Europe‚ spanning through the Swiss Alps to the south of Europe. This railway tunnel has been designed to bypass the inefficient route of windy roads and cutting down travel time. The Gotthard Base tunnel consisting of twin tunnels is connected by cross passages at every 325m. The twin tunnels have been constructed
