The type strain SUR2 of the novel species Chryseobacterium limigenitum was isolated from a dehydrated sludge of the municipal sewage treatment plant in Dogoše near Maribor in Slovenia. The draft genome, with 60 contigs, 4,697,725bp, 34.4% of G+C content, was obtained using the Illumina HiSeq 2500-1 platform. Joint Genome Institute Microbial Genome Annotation Pipeline (MGAP v.4) has identified 4...

Resistance to antibiotics is becoming a major problem worldwide. Exacerbating this situation is the fact that few new antibiotics are in the development pipeline, and, indeed, no novel class of antibiotics has been introduced into medical practice in more than 20 years. It is proposed that the solutions to the problem of antibiotic resistance will be found only through fundamental research that...

To ensure the reliable functioning of main pipeline for water transport in hydropower, which has been operational 50 years, a detailed analysis pipeline’s material condition is necessary. The undergoes changing exploitation and working conditions, including extreme load phases such as periodic intensive emptying filling with inspection. In this paper, we analyse resistance NIOVAL47 steel using ...

When a natural gas pipeline ruptures, the adjacent automatic line control valves (ALCVs) should close quickly to prevent leakage or explosion. The differential pressure set point (DPS) at each valve location is the main criteria for value setting in ALCV action. If the DPS is not properly adjusted, the ALCV may mistakenly close or it may not take any action at proper time. This study focused on...

The buckling tendency of an offshore pipeline buried in a liquefiable soil aggravates under earthquake situations. Moreover, to understand the upheaval displacement behavior dynamic loading, it is crucial variation liquefaction potential within bed. Thus, present study, body and its effect on (u) post-shake uplift resistance (Vup) investigated using finite element package called PLAXIS 2D. stud...

This paper proposes a new fault model and its modeling and analysis methods in a clockless asynchronous wave pipeline for extensive yield evaluation and assurance. It is highly desirable to have an adequate and specific pulse fault rate model for establishing a sound theoretical foundation for clockless wave pipeline design for reliability. The pulse fault model is thoroughly identified as the ...

We describe a robot vision system that achieves complex object recognition with two layers of behaviors performing the tasks of planning and object recognition respectively The recognition layer is a pipeline in which successive stages take in images from a stereo head recover relevant features build intermediate representations and deposit D objects into a world model Each stage is an independ...

In this study, operation of compressor station has been investigated by exergy approach. Exergy analysis is a thermodynamic method which shows the irreversibility of a system quantitatively. Gas compressors are used to compensate the pressure drop along the gas pipeline significantly. The compression process causes temperature rise of gas; in this regard gas cooler is applied to reduce the temp...

Nowadays, centrifugal compressors are commonly used in the oil and gas industry, particularly in the energy transmission facilities just like a gas pipeline stations. Therefore, these machines with different operational circumstances and thermodynamic characteristics are to be exploited according to the operational necessities. Generally, the most important operational parameters of a gas pipel...

In this paper, we present a model, and experimental results, for performing fractal image compression using a circulating pipeline computation model. For this model, a toroidal linear array of processors is employed and utilized in a pipelined fashion. Image data decomposition is performed as to minimize memory requirements for a given processor in the pipeline and to obtain reasonable load bal...
