The importance of achieving concentrations of both streptomycin and isoniazid adequate to sterilize all parent drug-susceptible organisms was empasized by in vitro studies on the prevention of emergence of mutants resistant to these drugs (1). Many factors determine the concentrations of these agents to which multiplying tubercle bacilli are exposed in the human subject: dosage; absorption and ...
متن کاملHigh Maneuverability Lenticular Airship
This paper presents and describes a new lenticular shaped airship that allows 3D omnidirectional movements. The airship is intended to be part of a cooperative aerial system based in the synergy between an airship and a group of micro-quad rotors capable of long time missions as environmental, biodiversity monitoring, WiSAR missions, road monitoring, detection of forest fires, etc. The emphasis...
متن کاملTurbulence Modeling Challenges in Airship
Turbulent separated flows around an airship-like geometry (a prolate spheroid 6:1) are investigated using three turbulence modelings based on statistical and Large Eddy Simulation (LES) approaches. The turbulence models used in the simulations are a standard high Reynolds k–ε model, a Smagorinsky LES model and a variational multiscale LES one. The flow of interest is characterized by a relative...
متن کاملHuman fatigue and the crash of the airship Italia
The airship Italia, commanded by General Umberto Nobile, crashed during its return flight from the North Pole in 1928. The cause of the accident was never satisfactorily explained. We present evidence that the crash may have been fatigue-related. Nobile's memoirs indicate that at the time of the crash he had been awake for at least 72 h. Sleep deprivation impairs multiple aspects of cognitive f...
متن کاملInviscid Flow Calculation around a Flexible Airship
In the context of an airship development programme, inviscid flow behavior and its coupling with structure flexibility are investigated. For this purpose, we have chosen a nonlinear analysis tool relying on the unsteady Euler model for the flow part and the classical elastodynamic equations for the structure. The numerical model for the flow is based on a Mixed Element Volume discretization der...
