Combustion phasing is the main obstacle to the development of controlled auto-ignition based (CAI) engines to achieve low emissions and low fuel consumption operation. Fuel combinations with substantial differences in reactivity, such as diesel/compressed natural gas (CNG), show desirable combustion outputs and demonstrate great possibility in controlling the combustion. This paper discusses a ...

Neural stem cells generate neurons in the hippocampal dentate gyrus in mammals, including humans, throughout adulthood. Adult hippocampal neurogenesis has been the focus of many studies due to its relevance in processes such as learning and memory and its documented impairment in some neurodegenerative diseases. However, we are still far from having a complete picture of the mechanism regulatin...

The aim of this study was to investigate copy number of ErbB family members (including EGFR, HER2, HER3 and HER4) in a cohort of gliomas and benign meningiomas (control subjects), and explore the associations of their copy number with clinicopathological characteristics and clinical outcomes of glioma patients. Using real-time quantitative PCR assay, we demonstrated that copy number of EGFR, HE...

Cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) is a key secondary messenger used in signal transduction in various types of sensory neurons. The importance of cGMP in the ASE gustatory receptor neurons of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans was deduced by the observation that multiple receptor-type guanylyl cyclases (rGCs), encoded by the gcy genes, and two presently known cyclic nucleotide-gated ion ch...

Existing diesel engines are under stringent emission regulation particularly of smoke and particulate matter in their exhaust. Compressed Natural Gas and Diesel dual fuel operation is regarded as one of the best ways to control emissions from diesel engines and simultaneously saving petroleum based diesel fuel. Dual fuel engine is a conventional diesel engine which burn either gaseous fuel or d...

Exhaust emissions from thirteen compressed natural gas (CNG) and nine ultralow sulphur diesel in-service transport buses were monitored on a chassis dynamometer. Measurements were carried out at idle and at three steady engine loads of 25%, 50% and 100% of maximum power at a fixed speed of 60 km h(-1). Emission factors were estimated for particle mass and number, carbon dioxide and oxides of ni...

Abstract Fuzzy set (FS) theory and rough sets (RSs) are constructed to accommodate the data uncertainty. In contrast, bipolar FS (BFS) can tackle uncertainty bipolarity of in different circumstances. This article aims introduce idea fuzzy ideals semigroup (SG), which is a generalization concept BFSs (RBFSs) an SG. We also investigate roughness subsemigroup (BF-SSG) with help congruence relation...

A mai világban a társadalom szemlélet- és értékrendváltozása miatt egyre inkább előtérbe kerül környezetvédelem fenntarthatóság repülés területén is. Ennek egyik lehetosége CNG hajtásrendszer fejlesztése. egy olyan metán-etán elegy, amellyel elérhető 15%-kal kevesebb COx, 80%-kal NOx 90%-kal HC-kibocsátás korommentesség. munkánkban forgószárnyas repülőgépeket vizsgáltam meg, CNG-s hajtásút benz...

Two organic gas speciation profiles (OG2403 and OG2404) for compressed natural gas (CNG) transit buses equipped with three-way catalysts (TWC) were developed in this work to complement the current CARB organic gas speciation profile database. The profiles were created based on chassis dynamometer test data of two transit buses equipped with TWCs running on CNG. Profile OG2403 was made for Stead...
