the purpose of this study was to determine the seasonal changes of vital signs (body temperature, pulse rate and blood pressure) in relation to the working thermal conditions. in this study a total number of 202 permanent workers of bakeries were studied during summer and winter. the results showed the body temperature and pulse rate raised more in summer than in winter in all workers except wh...

lysozyme is considered as part of the innate immune system. it has stimulated considerable interest as a natural food preservative. lysozyme has been shown to be effective in preserving a variety of foods such as fresh fruits and vegetables, meats, seafood and wine, for which many japanese patents have been granted. the relatively high thermal stability of lysozyme also makes it attractive for ...

In the present Rapid Communication we present an analytical and numerical solution of the self-consistent mode-coupling equations for the problem of heat conductivity in one-dimensional systems. Such a solution leads us to propose a different scenario to accommodate the known results obtained so far for this problem. More precisely, we conjecture that the universality class is determined by the...

a series of polystyrene hybrid nanocomposites have been fabricated with varying amounts of tio2 viz., 0, 0.5 and 1 % w/w along with 3% ts by in-situ polymerization method. the influence of surface modified tio2 nanoparticles on the thermal properties of ps matrix was examined using thermogravimetry and differential scanning calorimetry. thermal characteristics of the polystyrene/ts/tio2 hybrid ...

in this paper, wavelet collocation method has been used to solve nonlinear fin problem with temperature dependent thermal conductivity and heat transfer coefficient. thermal conductivity of fin materials varies any type so that we consider thermal conductivity as the general function of temperature.  here we consider three particular cases, where we assume that thermal conductivity is constant,...
