Comminuted meat products are highly susceptible to safety and quality degradation partly because of their large interfacial area in the emulsion.The food industry extensively uses synthetic chemical preservatives to delay that degradation which is caused by microbial growth, enzyme activities and oxidation reactions.However, due to the potential he
Onychomycosis is a common fungal infection of the nail, caused by dermatophytes, non-dermatophytes, and yeasts.Predisposing factors include older age, trauma, diabetes, immunosuppression, and previous history of nail psoriasis or tinea pedis.Though many biological risk factors have been well characterized, the role of the environment has been less
Summary: Thermal switches are advanced heat-management devices that represent a new opportunity to improve the energy efficiency and power density of caloric devices.In this study we have developed a numerical model to analyze the operation and the performance of static thermal switches in caloric refrigeration.The investigation comprises a paramet
The present work is to design a passive pitch-control mechanism for small horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) to generate stable power at high wind speeds.The mechanism uses a disk pulley as an actuator to passively adjust the Sleeping Aids pitch angle of blades by centrifugal force.For this design, aerodynamic braking is caused by the adjustment o
In connection with the beginning transition of mass-produced battery electric vehicle (BEV) powertrains from single-gear gearboxes to specially configured automatic transmissions (AT), the number of publications devoted to justification and research of their architecture, as well as optimization of applied design solutions, is rapidly increasing.A
