An experimental investigation of the tip flow characteristics between a gas turbine blade tip and the shroud was conducted by a pressure-test system and a particle image velocimetry (PIV) system.A three-times scaled profile of the GE-E3 blade with five film cooling holes was used as specimen.The effects on flow characteristics by the rim width and

Nowadays, intelligent systems are used as innovative tools in different environmental issues.However, the prediction of short-term waste, unlike the long-term scale, is less developed due to more uncertainties and the difficulty in determining measurable independent parameters.In this study, two types of artificial neural networks (MLP and RBF) and

With the introduction in recent years of high-yield blight-resistant chestnut varieties, the commercial chestnut industry in the United States is expanding.Accompanying this expansion is a resurgence in a primary pest of chestnut: C.sayi, the lesser chestnut weevil.This weevil damages the nut crop and infestations can surge from 0 to close to 100%

The Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK-STAT) pathway functions as a central hub for transmitting signals from more than 50 cytokines, playing a pivotal role in maintaining hematopoiesis, immune balance, and tissue homeostasis.Dysregulation of this pathway has been implicated in various diseases, including immunodefic

The ECSPU pneumatic compensators with quasi-zero simply boho classroom stiffness are proposed.The pneumatic compensator with quasi-zero stiffness is suggested to be made in the form of pneumatic spring assemblies having a power characteristic with a positive stiffness working area and a set of successively connected Belleville springs and a power c
