the importance of the use of activated charcoal tubes for sampling gases and vapors is very well-known. for producing these tubes in the country, their production started in the laboratory of the department of occupation al health using activated charcoal, polyurethane foam and glass wool and consequently two types of foamed and foamless tubes were produced. to investigate the quality of the ra...

including basic and performance. For example, section 4.1 shows spectral response characteristics of typical photocathodes and also gives the definition of photocathode sensitivity and its measurement procedure. Section 4.2 explains dynode types, structures and typical characteristics. Section 4.3 describes various performance characteristics such as time response, operating stability, sensitiv...

JCB • VOLUME 168 • NUMBER 3 • 2005 348 Saving varicella from suicide aricella zoster virus (VZV) causes both varicella (chickenpox) and zoster (shingles). VZV spreads throughout the body, but it does so slowly, and virus only emerges extracellularly in the skin where it can spread to other hosts. That behavior is now explained by Zhenglun Zhu (Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA), Jason Chen, An...

A low-speed counter-rotating axial flow compressor (CRAC) with single circumferential grooved casing treatment (CT) was investigated numerically. Both steady and time-accurate numerical calculations were performed to study the effects of the single grooved CTs over the rear rotor on the stability enhancement and the unsteadiness of tip leakage flow (TLF) in the CRAC. Parametric studies indicate...

Electronics miniaturization techniques have been used to fabricate substrata to study contact guidance of cells. Topographical guidance of three cell types (BHK, MDCK and chick embryo cerebral neurones) was examined on grooved substrata of varying dimensions (4-24 microns repeat, 0.2-1.9 microns depth). Alignment to within 10 degrees of groove direction was used as our criterion for guidance. I...

Directed migration of groups of cells is a critical aspect of tissue morphogenesis that ensures proper tissue organization and, consequently, function. Cells moving in groups, unlike single cells, must coordinate their migratory behavior to maintain tissue integrity. During directed migration, cells are guided by a combination of mechanical and chemical cues presented by neighboring cells and t...

This paper reviews the summary and analysis of special technical safety schemes for hazardous ultrahazardous activities, supported by housing scaffolding, installation, dismantling outer wall attached tower crane, deep foundation pit with supporting structure, municipal bridge box girder formwork support, as well grooved Larsen steel sheet pile, which are commonly seen in recent years, so to en...

Low-cost, lightweight, and easily available Fresnel lenses are a more alluring choice for solar laser power production, when compared to the costly complex heliostat-parabolic mirror systems. Therefore, seven-rod head was designed numerically studied enhance efficiency in TEM00-mode employing six with 10 m2 total collection area concentration of sunlight. Six folding mirrors redirected rays tow...

We investigate subcritical resonant heat transfer in a heated periodic grooved channel by modulating the flow with an oscillation of random amplitude. This excitation effectively destabilizes the flow at relatively low Reynolds number and establishes strong communication between the grooved flow and the Tollmien–Schlichting channel waves, as revealed by various statistical quantities we analyse...

Surface wetting is an important phenomenon in many industrial processes including microand nanofluidics. The wetting characteristics depend on the surface tension forces at the three-phase contact line and can be altered by introducing patterned groove structures. This study investigates the effect of the grooves on the transition in the wetting behavior between the Cassie to Wenzel regimes. Th...
