Radiobiology and gray science: flaws in landmark new radiation protections.

The International Commission on Radiological Protection--whose regularly updated recommendations are routinely adopted as law throughout the globe--recently issued the first-ever ICRP protections for the environment. These draft 2005 proposals are significant both because they offer the commission's first radiation protections for any non-human parts of the planet and because they will influenc...

THE INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENCE & TECHNOLEDGE Data Encoding Technique Using Gray Code in Network-on-Chip

As technology varies the power dissipated by the links of a network-on-chip (NOC) due to noise increases the risk of errors in the communication subsystem. In this paper, we present a data encoding technique using gray code input aimed at reducing the errors and power dissipation by the links of an NOC. The proposed scheme uses the binary to gray conversion at the transmitter and gray to binary...

Delamination Wear Mechanism in Gray Cast Irons

An investigation of the friction and sliding wear of gray cast iron against chromium plated cast irons was carried out on a newly constructed reciprocating friction and wear tester. The tests were the first to be done on the test rig under dry conditions and at the speed of 170 cm/min, and variable loads of 20-260 N for a duration of 15 min. to 3 hours. The gray cast iron surfaces worn by a pro...
