Anti-slug control applied to two-phase flow provides a very challenging and important application for feedback control. It is important because it allows for operation that would otherwise be impossible, and challenging because of the presence of both RHP-poles and RHP-zeros. To conduct experiments on pipeline-riser anti-slug control, a small-scale slug-loop has been build. The loop has been mo...

PURPOSE We recently demonstrated in a mouse model of glaucoma that endogenous epigenetic mechanisms can be activated by a repetitive hypoxic preconditioning (RHP) stimulus to provide robust retinal ganglion cell (RGC) protection. Although we also provided evidence that RHP prevents or delays the apoptotic demise of the RGC soma, the mechanisms responsible for signaling this epigenetic response,...

Swelling soil leads to many types of constructional damages, deformations, and failures in the constructions’ roads, shoulders, foundations. Depending on amount swell, they can be insignificant, moderate, or massive. This paper presents a method for swelling stabilization by adding rice husk powder (RHP) variable percentages 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 weight dry soil. The properties were investigated...

In this study, three paddy harvesting systems, manual of (MHP), reaper (RHP), and combine (CHP), were evaluated considering field capacities, efficiencies, time fuel consumption, mechanization indices, greenhouse gas emissions, straw availability, direct indirect costs. Field experiments conducted in the North Central Province Sri Lanka. The effective capacity, efficiency consumption harvester ...

Males often fight with rival males for access to females. However, some males display nonfighting tactics such as sneaking, satellite behavior, or female mimicking. When these mating tactics comprise a conditional strategy, they are often thought to be explained by resource holding potential (RHP), that is, nonfighting tactics are displayed by less competitive males who are more likely to lose ...

The development of methods to assemble nucleosomes from recombinant histones decades ago has transformed chromatin research. Nevertheless, nucleosome reconstitution remains time consuming to this day, not least because the four individual histones must be purified first. Here, we present a streamlined purification protocol of recombinant histones from bacteria. We termed this method "rapid hist...

Hypertrophic pachymeningitis (HP) is a rare form of diffuse inflammatory disease that causes thickening the dura mater. It can involve cranial or spinal both. An increasingly well-known symptom IgG4-related illness, fibroinflammatory syndrome may affect almost any organ, hypertrophic (IgG4-RHP). estimated IgG4-RHP account for high proportion cases once considered idiopathic. Contrast magnetic r...

Geothermal energy is a form of renewable with long tradition in European countries, although it scarcely used Spain. One the reasons for this poorly studied geothermal potential Spanish territory. In recent years, data published on terrestrial gamma radiation and geochemistry radioisotopes rocks have suggested that radiogenic heat production (RHP) some areas Spain high. work, we assessed RHP by...

In the field of linear time-invariant systems, a process is identified as a nonminimum phase (NMP) system if its transfer function has at least one right half-plane (RHP) zero, or a RHP pole, or a time delay. Among others, systems with RHP zero(s) constitute a very important category of NMP systems, both from theoretical and practical point of view. Such zeros appear in many realworld systems s...

Animal colour signals used in intraspecies communications can generally be attributed to a composite effect of structural and pigmentary colours. Notably, the functional role of iridescent coloration that is 'purely' structural (i.e., absence of pigments) is poorly understood. Recent studies reveal that iridescent colorations can reliably indicate individual quality, but evidence of iridescence...
