Nowadays, magnetic gears (MGs) have become an alternative choice for mechanical gears because of their low maintenance, improved durability, indirect contact between inner and outer rotors, no lubrication, and high efficiency. Generally, although these advantages, MGs suffer from inherent issues, mainly the cogging torque. Therefore, cogging torque mitigation has become an active research area....

Mitigation of 131-I induced oxidative stress by supplementation turmeric and green cardamom in thyroid patients

Global climate change is progressing and health impacts have been observed in a number of countries, including Australia. The main health impacts will be due to direct heat exposure, extreme weather, air pollution, reduced local food production, food- and vectorborne infectious diseases and mental stress. The issue is one of major public health importance. Adaptation to reduce the effects of cl...

Disaster studies address the social and behavioral aspects of sudden onset collective stress situations typically referred to as mass emergencies or disasters. These situations can be created by natural hazards, technological accidents, violent intergroup conflicts, shortages of vital resources, and other major hazards to life, health, property, well-being and everyday routines. Disaster studie...

Negative Bias Temperature Instability (NBTI) is one of the serious concerns for long-term circuit performance degradation. NBTI degrades PMOS transistors under negative bias, whereas they recover once negative bias is removed. In this paper, we propose a mitigation method for NBTI-induced performance degradation that exploits the recovery property by shifting random input sequence through scan ...

abstract in recent years some research results have appeared that exogenous salicylic acid provided significant mitigation effect against salinity induced injuries in plants. an experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of salt stress and salicylic acid on radish (raphanus sativus l.) plants. after appearing first leaves, plants were treated by salicylic acid (0.2 mm) for 3 days and n...

The physical presence of other people can be stressful during performance tasks. The current study predicts that the physical presence of a single stranger will relate to physiological, selfreport and bodily indicators of perceived psychological stress as compared to a control condition with no experimenter physically present. Undergraduate students completed a series of questionnaires related ...

We investigated the propagation of intense stress waves across silica nanofoams, with the pore size ranging from 50 nm to 1 mm and the porosity of 60%. The experimental results showed that if the pore size was relatively large, the stress wave remained localized and its energy was dissipated in narrow bands; if the pore size was below 200 nm, however, the stress wave was homogenized in a broad ...

Menopause involves dramatic declines in estradiol production and levels. Importantly, estradiol and the class of stress hormones known as glucocorticoids exert countervailing effects throughout the body, with estradiol exerting positive effects on the brain and cognition, glucocorticoids exerting negative effects on the brain and cognition, and estradiol able to mitigate negative effects of glu...

This paper sets out the findings and further research about potential links between personality, computer anxiety and the mitigation strategies that can be used to alleviate the level of anxiety felt by an individual. Having found that, while there is a correlation between openness and emotional stability and computer anxiety this is not enough to successfully predict those who would be likely ...
