Photovoltaics (PV) and Solar Thermal (ST) collectors are sometimes competitors, as investment capacity, energy demand, roof space limited. Therefore, a ratio that quantifies the difference in annual output between ST PV for different locations is useful. A market survey assessing average price performance both 2013 2021 was conducted, showing factor of 3 cell decrease combined with 20% efficien...

Thermostabilizing effect of heavy water (D2O) or deuterium oxide has been demonstrated previously on several enzymes and vaccines like oral poliovirus vaccine and influenza virus vaccine. In view of the above observations, effect of heavy water on in situ thermostabilization of recombinant p26 protein on enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for serodiagnosis of equine infectious anemia vir...

In this article, the corrosion inhibition of steel DIN 2391 St 37-4 in acidic medium 5% H2SO4 with and without presence eco inhibitors leaf (Petroselinum Sativum) was examined. Inhibitory properties parsley leaves on were examined by potentiodynamic polarization - Tafel extrapolation, FTIR method order to categorize oxide layer. The test performed static stirring at 600 rpm. By extrapolation ba...

Genetic screens in Saccharomyces cerevisiae provide novel information about interacting genes and pathways. We screened for high-copy-number suppressors of a strain with the gene encoding the nuclear exosome component Rrp6p deleted, with either a traditional plate screen for suppressors of rrp6Delta temperature sensitivity or a novel microarray enhancer/suppressor screening (MES) strategy. MES ...

This work reports electrothermal MEMS parallel plate-rotation (PPR) for a single-imager based stereoscopic endoscope. A thin optical plate was directly connected to an electrothermal MEMS microactuator with bimorph structures of thin silicon and aluminum layers. The fabricated MEMS PPR device precisely rotates an transparent optical plate up to 37° prior to an endoscopic camera and creates the ...

PURPOSE The goal of this study was to evaluate outcomes in patients who had condylar neck fractures treated with 3 different plating techniques. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective study was performed on 37 patients with 40 fractures of the condylar neck that were reduced and stabilized using an approach involving exposure of the facial nerve. Stabilization was achieved with a single minipla...

BACKGROUND Contrary to aerobic exercise, strength training (ST) is associated with decreased central arterial compliance in young men. It is unknown whether ST, with or without concurrent endurance training, would have a similar effect in older adults with reduced baseline arterial compliance. OBJECTIVE The primary aim of this study was to determine the effect of a ST program on central arter...

the effect of steel plate thickness on the repair effectiveness of rc beam is presented in this paper. a total of four beams were tested, one beam repaired by cfrp with a thickness of 1.2 mm and used as a control beam, and three beams repaired by a steel plate. steel plates with a thickness of 2 mm, 3 mm, and 4 mm were used in repairing the beams. the maximum load-carrying capacity, deflection ...
