this research develops thermo-elastic analysis of a functionally graded cylinder under thermo-mechanical loadings. heat conduction equation in cylindrical coordinate system is solved. thermal conductivity coefficient is graded along the radial direction. by considering a symmetric distribution of temperature, loading and boundary conditions, strain-displacement and stress-strain relations can b...

Background &Aims of the Study: Nowadays heat stress is one of the most current harmful physical agents in workplaces. Attentions to recognized consequences of heat stress and have no information about heat stress in Ardabil bakeries, this study have been done in 2013. Materials & Methods: This cross sectional research has been done in 96 different bread types bakeries in ...

To determine how the accumulation of the major Drosophila melanogaster heat-shock protein, Hsp70, affects inducible thermotolerance in larvae and pupae, we have compared two sister strains generated by site-specific homologus recombination. One strain carried 12 extra copies of the Hsp70 gene at a single insertion site (extra-copy strain) and the other carried remnants of the transgene construc...

Changing of principal σ factor in RNA polymerase holoenzyme to a group 2 σ factor redirects transcription when cyanobacteria acclimate to suboptimal environmental conditions. The group 2 sigma factor SigB was found to be important for the growth of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 in high-salt (0.7 m NaCl) stress but not in mild heat stress at 43°C although the expression of the si...

Thermotolerance and heat acclimation are key adaptation processes that have been hitherto viewed as separate phenomena. Here, we provide evidence that these processes may share a common basis, as both may potentially be governed by the heat shock response. We evaluated the effects of a heat shock response-inhibitor (quercetin; 2,000 mg/day) on established markers of thermotolerance [gastrointes...

Pekerja industri kerupuk terutama informal memberikan beban kerja fisik rangkap dan durasi lebih dari 8 jam pada pekerjanya, lingkungan yang panas menjadi berat. Sehingga banyak pekerja di mengeluhkan suhu terlalu panas, keringat berlebihan, rasa haus. Keluhan tersebut merupakan respon fisiologis manusia bertujuan untuk mengurangi tubuh setelah menerima efek paparan disebut dengan heat strain. ...

Thermal stress is an important factor in many industrial situations, athletic events and military scenarios. It can seriously affect the productivity and the health of the individual and diminish tolerance to other environmental hazards. However, the assessment of the thermal stress and the translation of the stress in terms of physiological and psychological strain is complex. For over a centu...
