Comparison study of unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) and hybrid RANS-LES models is carried out for predicting the performance three-straight-bladed vertical axis wind turbine operating within tip speed ratios (TSRs) ranges (1.44–3.3). The evaluation focused on power coefficient, moment coefficient vortex structure generation, growth transportation predictions. It was found that ...

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is an inflammatory skin condition strongly associated with Staphylococcus aureus colonization and infection. S. aureus strains shift in populations in ~10-year intervals depending on virulence factors. Shifts in S. aureus virulence factors may in part explain the racial differences observed in the levels of prevalence and severity of AD. AD S. aureus isolates collected fr...

Abstract The accuracy of wind flow simulation in mountain area micro-topography is related to discrete scheme, turbulence model and wall function. In this paper, the standard hill adopt analyze calculation different models. Four models, including RNG k-ε, k-ω , SST TSST were used calculation, compared with result tunnel test. results second-order upwind or scalable function are basically consis...

In this paper, a generalized version of the inverted exponential distribution called the weighted inverted exponential distribution is introduced. Several properties of the weighted inverted exponential distribution are studied and derived. In application part the relationship between induced psychological stress, HPA axis and eating behaviour in Binge Eating Disorder (BED) has been discussed. ...

Structure-function studies have revealed that the region between amino acids 115 and 141 of toxic shock syndrome toxin 1 (TSST-1) constitutes a biologically active domain. A critical residue appears to be histidine 135, since a site-directed mutation that alters the histidine to alanine (H135A) results in a loss of mitogenic activity and an absence of toxicity as measured in a rabbit infection ...
