A 1976 study included an evaluation of the armor required to contain the energy from 1 blade, 2 blade, and 4 blade fragments of the compressor and turbine stages of General Electric CF6 and Pratt & Whitney JT9D engines; although the 4 blade fragment was unlikely to occur, containing it would have required a steel plate 1.212 inches (30.8 mm ...
It was first described in 1952 by American paediatrician Charles Upton Lowe (August 24, 1921 – February 9, 2012) [12] [13] and colleagues at the Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. [14] Because of the three major organ systems involved (eyes, brain and kidney), it is known as oculocerebrorenal syndrome.
A stress test (sometimes called a torture test) of hardware is a form of deliberately intense and thorough testing used to determine the stability of a given system or entity. It involves testing beyond normal operational capacity , often to a breaking point, in order to observe the results.
The straight leg raise is a test that can be performed during a physical examination, with the leg being lifted actively by the patient or passively by the clinician. If the straight leg raise is done actively by the patient, it is a test of functional leg strength, particularly the rectus femoris element of the quadriceps (checking both hip flexion and knee extension strength simultaneously).
This connector is used with notebook fans or when connecting the fan to the video card. Dell proprietary This proprietary Dell connector is an expansion of a simple three-pin female IC connector by adding two tabs to the middle of the connector on one side and a lock-tab on the other side. The size and spacing of the pin sockets is identical to ...
The goal and objectives, the time frame, the stress test level and the total costs of the stress test are defined. Phase 2: Assessment, during which the stress test at the component and the system scope is performed, including fragility [12] and risk [13] analysis of the CIs for the stressors defined in Phase 1. The stress test can result in ...

The nuclear stress test exhibits a sensitivity of 81% and a specificity ranging from 85 to 95%. [22] To arrive at the patient's post test likelihood of disease, the interpretation of the stress test result necessitates the integration of the patient's pretest likelihood with the test's sensitivity and specificity.
