Thanks to post-flight analyses of several artificial satellites carried out during last years, the meteoroids hazard for space navigation and in-orbit satellites permanence is now clear. Even if catastrophic impact is a rare event, high meteoroids fluxes can erode and weaken the satellite or space station main structures. However, the main danger seems to be the impact-generated plasma, which c...

Despite their superficial logic, systems of merit pay or pay for performance have features that are toxic to systemic improvement. Contingent rewards doled out by supervisors cause decreased focus on customer needs, loss of accurate information about defects and improvement opportunities, avoidance of stretch goals, and decreased innovation.

Not too many companies can remain profitable by writing off hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of merchandise on an annual basis or sitting idly by as their customer bases erode due t...

Enhanced active resonant (EAR) DC circuit breakers (DCCBs) are a novel type of DCCB that use discharge closing switch as interruption medium. A technical limitation switches is the minimum voltage across main gap required for successful triggering. commutation process creating internally proposed, which allows to simplify EAR configuration and reduce its component count. In prototype, implement...

The study describes the first attempt to record leptospirosis in Erode by isolation and serological tests such as the microscopic agglutination test and IgM-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Twenty-nine clinically suspected cases showing fever, headache, body ache associated with jaundice, decreased urine output, and conjunctival suffusion were included. The age of the patients ranged be...

Most plant genes occur as members of multigene families where new copies arise through duplication. Duplicate genes that do not confer an adaptive advantage to the plant are expected to rapidly erode into pseudogenes owing to the accumulation of transpositions, insertion/deletion mutations and nucleotide changes. Nonfunctional copies will drift to fixation within a few million years and ultimat...
