In an effort to determine the orbital period of the enigmatic star DI Cru ≡ WR 46 ≡ HD 104994, we made photometric and spectroscopic observations of this object between 1996 and 2002. Both photometric and spectroscopic characteristics are quite complex. The star is highly variable on short (few hours) as well as on long (few months) time-scales. The optical spectrum is rich in strong emission l...

In this study, the ignition and combustion characteristics of fast pyrolysis bio-oil (FPBO) are investigated in a research unit (CRU), which mainly consists constant-volume chamber. To fuel CRU with FPBO, n-butanol 2-ethylhexyl nitrate (EHN) used to improve atomization properties blends, respectively. first part an appropriate proportion EHN additive into is determined based on balance between ...

In this paper, on the space of smooth sections of a SL(2, R)-homogeneous vector bundle. over the upper half plane we study the SL(2, R) structure for the eigenspaces of the Cru;;imir operator. That is, we determine its Jordan-Holder' sequence and the sode filttation. We compute a suitable generalized principal series having as a quotient a giver} eigenspace. We also give an integral equation wh...

Fatigue of the diaphragm may contribute to the development of respiratory failure [1]. The cause is thought to be an alteration in transmembrane calcium transport [2]. We have previously shown that the calcium channel blocker nicardipine intensifies diaphragmatic fatigue [3]. We compared the effects of diltiazem, another calcium channel blocker, on diaphragm fatigability in vivo with those of n...
