Galvanized steel scrap flow and injection into the HIsarna reactor are investigated using discrete element method (DEM). The particle is fed through an inclined chute hits slag surface where zinc content evaporated solid particles melt. A DEM model setup validated experimental data obtained from exact plant‐scale geometry particles. Using model, effect of inclination, elevation, mode (batch con...

to assess the expectations, perceptions and performance of different operators with varying backgrounds training in use full-arch intraoral scanning (IOS). Dentists (DENT), postgraduate dental students (DPG), student prosthetists (PROS) were invited join an IOS workshop. Participants completed a satisfactory scan mannikin-mounted typodont total time (TST) recorded. They also anonymised pre post...

Oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe (OCRL) gene product is a phosphatidyl inositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P(2)] 5-phosphatase, and mutations of OCRL cause Lowe syndrome and Dent disease, both of which are frequently associated with hypercalciuria. Transient receptor potential, vanilloid subfamily, subtype 6 (TRPV6) is an intestinal epithelial Ca(2+) channel mediating active Ca(2+) absorption. ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Dent disease is a hereditary form of progressive renal failure characterized by hypercalciuria and proximal tubular dysfunction. The clinical presentation is often insidious with the majority of patients remaining asymptomatic throughout childhood. Despite the seemingly mild, early course, more than 20% of 32 asymptomatic patients in one study had biopsy evidence of fo...

It is now becoming generally noted that many diseases of hitherto unknown aetiology are due to inborn errors of metabolism in the sense in which Garrod (1923) used this term. Although these diseases cover the whole of medicine it has been particularly gratifying to note that mental disease, especially mental deficiency which currently is responsible for one of our main medical problems, has bee...

The Herschel GASPS key program is a survey of the gas phase of protoplanetary discs, targeting 240 objects which cover a large range of ages, spectral types, and disc properties. To interpret this large quantity of data and initiate self-consistent analyses of the gas and dust properties of protoplanetary discs, we have combined the capabilities of the radiative transfer code MCFOST with the ga...
