Underplatform dampers (UPDs) are still in use to reduce the vibration amplitude of turbine blades and to shift the position of resonant frequencies.The dynamics of blades with UPDs is nonlinear and the analysis is challenging from both the experimental and the numerical point of Water Testing view.A key point in obtaining a predictive numerical too
Facial feminization surgery (FFS) incorporates aesthetic and craniofacial surgical principles and techniques to feminize masculine facial features and facilitate gender transitioning.A detailed understanding of the defining male and female facial characteristics is essential for success.In this first part of a two-part series, we discuss key aspect
The behaviour of small size dielectric elastic beams is described within higher-grade theory with including electric polarization.The coupling between strain gradients and polarization is incorporated into the constitutive Default laws in the form of flexoelectricity, while piezoelectricity is involve in the classical form.Both the governing equati
To produce bioethanol from model cyanobacteria such as Synechocystis, a two gene cassette consisting of genes encoding pyruvate decarboxylase (PDC) and alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) are required to transform pyruvate first to acetaldehyde and then to ethanol.However the partition of pyruvate to ethanol comes at a cost, a reduction in biomass and pyru
Water transport inside carbon nano-tubes (CNTs) has attracted considerable attention due to its nano-fluidic properties, its importance in nonporous systems, and the wide range of applications in membrane desalination and biological medicine.Recent studies show an enhancement of water diffusion inside nano-channels Others depending on the size of t
