Synapses are critical sites of information transfer in the nervous system, and it is important that their functionality be maintained under stressful conditions to prevent communication breakdown. Here we show that synaptic transmission at the Drosophila larval neuromuscular junction is protected by prior exposure to heat shock that strongly induces expression of heat shock proteins, in particu...

As the temperature of electronic devices increases, their failure rate increases. That is why electrical devices should be cooled. One of the promising cooling techniques is using Phase Change Materials (PCMs). A new passive temperature management technique, that involves the direct placement of PCMs on the chip, has been explored and developed. PCMs are potential temperature regulators that ca...

the preparation of air–fuel mixture is considerably dependent on fluid flow dynamics to achieve improved performance, efficiency, and engine combustion in the appearance of flow. in this study, the effects of mixtures of hydrogen and compressed natural gas (cng) on a spark ignition engine are numerically considered. this article presents the results of a direct-injection engine using methane–hy...

This article emphasizes significant recent advances regarding heat stress and its impact on exercise performance, adaptations, fluid electrolyte imbalances, and pathophysiology. During exercise-heat stress, the physiological burden of supporting high skin blood flow and high sweating rates can impose considerable cardiovascular strain and initiate a cascade of pathophysiological events leading ...

To understand the atmospheric response to a midlatitude oceanic front, this paper uses a quasigeostrophic (QG) model with moist processes. A well-known, three-level QG model on the sphere has been modified to include such processes in an aquaplanet setting. Its response is analyzed in terms of the upper-level atmospheric jet for sea surface temperature (SST) fronts of different profiles and loc...

Dynamic processes during wet-heat treatment of individual spores of Bacillus cereus, Bacillus megaterium, and Bacillus subtilis at 80 to 90°C were investigated using dual-trap Raman spectroscopy, differential interference contrast (DIC) microscopy, and nucleic acid stain (SYTO 16) fluorescence microscopy. During spore wet-heat treatment, while the spores' 1:1 chelate of Ca(2+) with dipicolinic ...

In this paper, thermoacoustic dynamic behaviour patterns of a Rijke tube with a distributed heat source have been investigated. The heat release model consists of a row of distributed heat sources with individual heat release rates. The integrated heat release rate is then coupled with the acoustic perturbation for thermoacoustic analysis. Unlike the conventional approach utilizing the Galerkin...

In this study, mechanical alloying was done by a high-energy planetary ball milling technique. A mixture of NiO and MoO3 and graphite powders were used as initial materials. After milling of powder mixture with 40 wt.% additional graphite, a temperature of 400, 550 and 1000 °C for 1 h was considered for the heat treatment of powder mixture. Also, powder mixtures containing 60, 80 and 100 wt.% a...
