  2. Slip forming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_forming

    The first residential building of slipform construction; erected in 1950 in Västertorp, Sweden, by AB Bygging Later picture of the residential building in Västertorp. Slip forming, continuous poured, continuously formed, or slipform construction is a construction method in which concrete is placed into a form that may be in continuous motion horizontally, or incrementally raised vertically.

  3. Boutonniere deformity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boutonniere_deformity

    Boutonniere deformity is a deformed position of the fingers or toes, in which the joint nearest the knuckle (the proximal interphalangeal joint, or PIP) is permanently bent toward the palm while the farthest joint (the distal interphalangeal joint, or DIP) is bent back away (PIP flexion with DIP hyperextension).

  4. Nasal reconstruction using a paramedian forehead flap

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nasal_reconstruction_using...

    The full-thickness forehead flap is sutured into the recipient site during stage one. The two most used forehead flap techniques are the two stage and three stage forehead flap. [1] [3] [4] The forehead consists of multiple layers; skin, subcutaneous tissue, frontalis muscle with fascia and a thin areolar layer.

  5. Ceramic forming techniques - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_forming_techniques

    A slip is a suspension of fine raw materials powder in a liquid such as water or alcohol with small amounts of secondary materials such as dispersants, surfactants and binders. Pottery slip casting techniques employ a plaster block or flask mould. The plaster mould draws water from the poured slip to compact and form the casting at the mould ...

  6. Ilizarov apparatus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilizarov_apparatus

    In medicine, the Ilizarov apparatus is a type of external fixation apparatus used in orthopedic surgery to lengthen or to reshape the damaged bones of an arm or a leg; used as a limb-sparing technique for treating complex fractures and open bone fractures; and used to treat an infected non-union of bones, which cannot be surgically resolved.

  7. Section restoration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_restoration

    This mechanism deforms an element to accommodate a change in shape by movement on closely spaced parallel planes of slip. The commonest assumption is vertical shear although comparisons with well understood examples suggest that antithetic inclined shear (i.e. in the opposite sense of dip to the controlling fault) at about 60°–70° is the ...

  8. Crystal plasticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_plasticity

    Crystal plasticity is a mesoscale computational technique that takes into account crystallographic anisotropy in modelling the mechanical behaviour of polycrystalline materials. The technique has typically been used to study deformation through the process of slip , however, there are some flavors of crystal plasticity that can incorporate ...

  9. Labral reconstruction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labral_reconstruction

    This technique has shown promising outcomes when utilized in patients whose native labral tissue is far too damaged for repair or debridement. A recent study comparing primary labral reconstruction versus primary labral repair demonstrated higher failure rates in the repair cohort versus the reconstruction cohort. [14]
