Transient Thunderstorm Downbursts and Their Effects on Wind Turbines

The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) Standard 61400-1 for the design of wind turbines does not explicitly address site-specific conditions associated with anomalous atmospheric events or conditions. Examples of off-standard atmospheric conditions include thunderstorm downbursts, hurricanes, tornadoes, low-level jets, etc. The simulation of thunderstorm downbursts and associated l...

A Review on Recent Findings on Amino Acids Requirements in Poult-Studies

Amino acids (AA) are important in poultry nutrition not only for protein deposition, but also for other metabolic functions; such as improving immune and gut functions. Although, some table values are available on amino acids requirement, AA requirements may vary due to changes in dietary composition and breeding selection. Thus amino acids requirements have remained an ongoing research topic. ...

Recent studies on bioactive natural products*

Isolation of a number of bioactive compounds from medicinal plants such as acetylcholinesterase inhibiting steroidal alkaloids, homomoenjodaramine and moenjodaramine from Buxus hyrcana, anti-epileptic terpenoids delphadienones I and II from Delphinium denudatum, and potent leishmanicidal compound ajoene from Allium sativum have been achieved through bioactivity-guided isolation.

Recent studies on music information processing

Music information processing has been widely deployed in music industries over the years. Of course, technologies oriented to musicians have long been studied including sound synthesis on music synthesizers, desktop music production based on MIDI sequencers, and various kinds of support for composing, performing, and recording music. Such tools have already become an essential part of the music...
