The determination of the pitch cones for hypoid gears is already well defined either through numerical methods as those shown in Standard ANSI/AGMA ISO 23509-B17 or algorithms available specialized literature. However, a procedure to determine gear tooth surfaces directly from their still missing. An analytical approach basic machine-tool settings pinion and wheel drives proposed here. It based...

Psoriatic arthritis is a chronic inflammatory arthritis that affects about 5-25% of patients with psoriasis. The prevalence varies from 20-420 per 100,000 population across the world, except in Japan where it is 1 per 100,000. In about 80% of cases the presence of psoriasis precedes the onset of psoriatic arthritis. There is not a strong correlation between the severity of psoriasis and the dev...

The HLA profile of 148 unrelated, Chinese prostitutes (56 with repeated gonococcal infection, 31 with syphilis, 31 with gonorrhoea and syphilis, and 30 with no evidence of infection) was compared with that of 238 unrelated, healthy, Chinese control subjects. The joint occurrence of AW19 B17 was observed in 25.8% of prostitutes with double infections compared with 6.7% of control subjects, while...

This paper proposes a generic multi-dimensional scan shift control concept for multiple scan chain design. Multiple scan chain test scheme provides very low scan power by skipping (selectively load/unload) many long scan chain switching activities. Based on the two-dimensional scan shift control, we can achieve low test power with simple and small overhead structure. We can further extend the s...

Here we report on a novel thiazole/oxazole-modified microcin (TOMM) from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens FZB42, a Gram-positive soil bacterium. This organism is well known for stimulating plant growth and biosynthesizing complex small molecules that suppress the growth of bacterial and fungal plant pathogens. Like microcin B17 and streptolysin S, the TOMM from B. amyloliquefaciens FZB42 undergoes ex...
