Gougerotin was isolated from Streptomyces gougerotii in 1962", its structure was established in 19692' and total syntheses were announced in 1972" and in 19754'. In the course of a soil screen we isolated gougerotin from an organism identified as Streptom}ices puniceus subsp. doliceus subsp. nov. (NRRL 11160). It was co-produced with the clazamycins''". The ultraviolet'' and proton magnetic res...

The Facebook discussion with Stephen King about Stone spaces led to a highly interesting development of ideas concerning Boolean, algebras, Stone spaces, and p-adic physics. I have discussed these ideas already earlier but the improved understanding of the notion of Stone space helped to make the ideas more concrete. The basic ideas are briefly summarized. p-adic integers/numbers correspond to ...

-This paper provides a comprehensive survey on the state-of-the-art condition monitoring and fault diagnostic technologies for wind turbines. The Part I of this survey briefly reviews the existing literature surveys on the subject, discusses the common failure modes in the major wind turbine components and subsystems, briefly reviews the condition monitoring and fault diagnostic techniques for ...

A common cause strategy is an essential conceptual approach for understanding variation and what might be contributing to it as well as informing the redesign of processes and systems to reduce inappropriate and unintended variation. This article describes what a common cause strategy for improvement is and the steps required for this approach. We describe a practical example of how this is ap...
