Bidirectional Brush Seals – Post-Test Analysis

Flow Seals Parameters Analysis For Rotors

The interaction of work fluid mechanics with that of the rotary system itself, basically composed of axes, bearings and rotors, is performed by inserting equivalent dynamic coefficients in the mathematical model of the rotor, the latter being obtained by the finite element method. In this paper, the dynamic coefficients of inertia, stiffness and damping of the flat seals analyzed here are evalu...

Prolonged fasting activates Nrf2 in post-weaned elephant seals.

Elephant seals naturally experience prolonged periods of absolute food and water deprivation (fasting). In humans, rats and mice, prolonged food deprivation activates the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and increases oxidative damage. In elephant seals, prolonged fasting activates RAS without increasing oxidative damage likely due to an increase in antioxidant defenses. The mechanism leading to ...

final test analysis of post graduate medical residents

background and purpose: multiple choice tests are the most common type of tests used in evaluating the general english knowledge of the students in most medical universities, however the efficacy of these tests are not examined precisely. we compare and examine the integrative tests and discrete point tests as   measures of the english language knowledge of medical students. methods: three test...

Building the WSMO-Lite test collection on the SEALS Platform

We present a test collection for WSMO-Lite that is suitable for evaluating systems, tools or algorithms for Semantic Web Service discovery or matchmaking. We describe the design of the test collection and how the collection has been implemented on the SEALS platform. In addition, we discuss lessons learned with respect to the WSMO-Lite ontology and our implementation of the test collection.
