In this study, DD13 sheet materials used in automobile swing manufacturing were welded with GMAW (Gas Metal Arc Welding) welding method different parameters such as method, amperage, and speed. The optimized value of the parameters, which will give lowest hardness weld seam hardness, was calculated by Taguchi method. addition, heat input values that are thought to affect change calculated, resu...

Catheter-associated infections are difficult to treat with available antimicrobial agents because of their biofilm etiology. We examined the effect of low-amperage direct electrical current (DC) exposure on established bacterial and fungal biofilms in a novel experimental in vitro catheter model. Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Ca...

The encroachment of Eastern redcedar (ERC) (Juniperus virginiana L.) onto Great Plains prairies has become a serious threat to ecosystem functioning and grazing productivity. uncontrolled spread this invasive tree species been called »green glacier« converting grasslands into closed canopy woodlands. A pasture cutting robot was developed using tracked Autonomous Ground Vehicle (AGV) equipped wi...

Many machine-learning-enabled approaches towards anomaly detection depend on the availability of vast training data. Our data are formed from power readings cycles domestic appliances, such as dishwashers or washing machines, and contain no known examples anomalous behaviour. Moreover, we limited to machine’s voltage, amperage, current readings, drawn a retrofitted outlet in 60-s samples. No ri...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the relationship between CT dose and the performance of a computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system, and to determine how best to minimize patient exposure to ionizing radiation while maintaining sufficient image quality for automated lung nodule detection, by the use of lung cancer screening CT. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-five asymptomatic volunteers participated in the s...

Electrochemical plasma is formed by an electrochemical reaction with a high voltage direct current (DC) in non-electrolyte solution such as distilled water to create gaseous state on the electrodes. Under conditions of voltage, strong electric field and suitable temperature rise due Joule-Lenz effect, will appear be noted glow electrode well characteristic amperage rate leading rapid increase r...

Breakthrough energy savings were recently projected by a spray-dryer free dairy powder manufacturing process based on superconcentration and granulation. The extent of the recirculation rate for granulation, determines performance. In this study, evolution physical properties during granulation was investigated model system (skim milk microfiltrate) using rheological shear-cell techniques. Resu...
