    The soil in the middle of excavation area is cut, leaving others to retain the deflection of diaphragm walls. This allows access to even farthest end without impeding the construction of struts and slabs. The dimension of the channel is determined by the space required by excavator and earth hauler. Also, the remaining soil should suffice the support required by diaphragm walls for deflection control. Thus, part A2 was completed using four vertical excavation stages of construction…

    the amount of drug delivery, the flow rate is a key parameter and can be controlled with the diaphragm displacement. The amount of displacement depends on the thickness of piezoelectric element, voltage, and input frequency. The simulation results showed that the displacement of the vibrating diaphragm increased with applied voltage. Moreover, when the piezoelectric thickness was increased, vibrating diaphragm displacement also was decreased. The flow rate can be adjusted by increasing or…

    tetrodotoxin. For consumption purposes, it will release the toxin through its skin. The tetrodotoxin blocks sodium ions from getting where they need to be, which in most cases are muscles. This paralyzes the organism’s diaphragm. This results in suffocation. One small BRO can cause the diaphragms in ten men to become paralyzed (Megan Cartwright, What It’s Like to Nearly Die From the Venom of a Blue-Ringed Octopus, Wild Things). Over time the size of the organism’s ink sac has shrunk as a result…

    My case study is on a patient who has a hiatal hernia. There is a small opening in the diaphragm, called the hiatus. A hiatal hernia is what occurs when a portion of the stomach pushes up through this opening. It is most common in people over the age of 50, and is so common it affects about half of the population (Kowalczyk & Mace, 2009). According to Eisenberg and Johnson, this condition is “the most common abnormality detected on upper GI examinations” (2012). In most cases, a small hernia…

    Most people usually breathe through their chest. Somehow in our lives we started breathing wrong which makes it hard for us to breathe through our diaphragm when we need to. Most people would have to practice breathing techniques to start breathing properly. It is important because when singing, if you can’t breathe, you won’t be able to be heard and then you are gasping for air and miss the lyrics you’re…
