The paper deals with the dynamic analysis of a tri-floater 1 MW offshore Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) placed at its centroid. Six line catenary mooring system was used for controlling horizontal movement floater. floater modeled as rigid body six degrees freedom. Mass, damping and hydrostatic stiffness were calculated by using stability condition. aerodynamic load on via stream tube theory...

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a multifactorial, heterogeneous, complex genetic endocrine and metabolic disorder, diagnostically characterized by chronic anovulation, polycystic ovaries and biochemical and clinical manifestations of hyperandrogenism. In patients with PCOS lower apoptotic rates found in granulosa cells compared to women with regular ovulatory cycles and this lea...

Quasi-hydrostatic cooling of the intracluster gas is studied. In the quasi-hydrostatic model, work done by gravity on the inflow gas with dP 6= 0, where P is the gas pressure, is taken into account in the thermal balance. The gas flows in from the outer part so as to compensate the pressure loss of the gas undergoing radiative cooling, but the mass flow is so moderate and smooth that the gas is...

The use of high pressure processing (HPP) in the food industry was developed as an alternative to common thermal processes, such as pasteurization and sterilization, to produce a microbiologically safe food while avoiding and reducing undesirable changes in sensory, physiochemical and nutritional properties of foods. The use of high pressure at high temperatures as a tool for sterilization (hig...

A root pressure probe has been used to measure the root pressure (P(r)) exerted by excised main roots of young maize plants (Zea Mays L.). Defined gradients of hydrostatic and osmotic pressure could be set up between root xylem and medium to induce radial water flows across the root cylinder in both directions. The hydraulic conductivity of the root (Lp(r)) was evaluated from root pressure rela...

Exercise capacity and skeletal muscle blood flow during exercise are reduced with advancing age. This reduction in blood flow capacity may be related to increased reactivity of skeletal muscle resistance vessels to vasoconstrictor stimuli. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that aging results in increased vasoconstrictor responses of skeletal muscle resistance arterioles. Firs...

Human osteosarcoma cells, MG-63, were exposed to a hydrostatic pressure shock of 4.0 MPa for 20 min. Changes in subcellular distribution of the cytoskeletal elements and heat shock protein 70 (hsp70) were followed by indirect immunofluorescence and by avidin-biotin-peroxidase protocols. During recovery, total cellular RNA was determined and actin and aldolase mRNA content was followed using rev...
