| | Surgical drapes for covering appendages - Patent 5413118 |
| | However, since it is not desirable to touch or move a patient as a drape is being placed on the patient, an envelope-shaped drape can be difficult to place over a patient using sterile techniques. | | | Generally, in order to place an envelope-shaped drape over a patient using sterile techniques, it is necessary to extend the drape past the distal end of the patient's appendage and pull the drape back toward the patient to cause the appendage to be located inside the envelope. | | | It is another object of the invention to provide a drape for covering an appendage of a patient which can be maintained in position over the patient during a surgical procedure. |

| | We have used dynamically-scaled physical models (on which we can vary one parameter at a time to quantify its effects on the flow field produced) to sort out which aspects of the morphology and motion of hairy appendages contribute to their ability to produce net fluid motion in these viscous flow regimes. | | | These appendages operate at a range of Reynolds numbers for which viscosity is more important than inertia in determining the fluid motion. | | | The examples of the particle-capturing second maxillae from various species of copepods illustrate several mechanisms by which altering the leakiness of the meshwork of hairs on an appendage at different times in the cycle of flapping can produce net water flow and lead to particle capture or rejection. |
