Wind turbines face harsh inflow conditions when operating in the atmospheric boundary layer or wake of other wind turbines. The incoming velocity field can change within seconds due to turbulent structures it contains, resulting a rapid several degrees angle attack for rotating blade. Aerodynamics are hence rapidly altered, leading changes occurring forces on rotor. Such dynamic cause blades tw...

When an indicator that permeates red blood cells with an equilibration time of the order of the mean transit time of the indicator through an organ is bolus injected solely into the plasma inflow to that organ, the mean transit time of the indicator is greater than it is when the indicator is injected preequilibrated between the plasma inflow and the red cell inflow. The mean transit time for e...

The acute effects of the antivascular drug, combretastatin A4 phosphate, on tumor energy status and perfusion were assessed using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and spectroscopy. Localized (31)P magnetic resonance spectroscopy showed that LoVo and RIF-1 tumors responded well to drug treatment, with significant increases in the P(i)/nucleoside triphosphate ratio within 3 h, whereas SaS, SaF, a...

In theories with chiral couplings, one of the important consistency requirements is that of the cancellation of a gauge anomaly. In particular, this is one of the conditions imposed on the hypercharges in the Standard Model. However, anomaly cancellation condition of the Standard Model looks unnatural from the perspective of a theory with extra dimensions. Indeed, if our world were embedded int...

BACKGROUND Implantation of a rotary blood pump (RBP) can cause non-physiological flow fields in the left ventricle (LV) which may trigger thrombosis. Different inflow cannula geometry can affect LV flow fields. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of inflow cannula geometry on intraventricular flow under full LV support in a patient specific model. METHODS Computed tomography ang...

A double T-piece paediatric system is described. During spontaneous respiration, the system will perform like a Magill system if the fresh gas flow is delivered via the distal T-piece; the proximal T-piece will provide an outlet. During controlled ventilation the set will perform like a Rees system if the fresh gas flow is delivered via the proximal T-piece; the distal T-piece will provide a co...

The withdrawal of foreign capital from emerging countries at the height of the recent financial crisis and its quick return sparked a debate about the impact of capital flow surges on asset markets. This paper addresses the response of property prices to an inflow of foreign capital. For that purpose we estimate a panel VAR on a set of Asian emerging market economies, for which the waves of inf...

In this paper, we show how participants learn to control a simple dynamic stocks and flows task with repeated inflow and outflow decisions. We present the effect that environmental inflow functions of different slopes (positive and negative) have on our ability to control the simple dynamic system. We investigate this slope effect in two experiments with two kinds of functions (linear and non-l...
