this paper presents a hybrid method for the optimization of forging process of an aerofoil blade. preform shape and die parting-line angle are optimized in order to minimize the volume of the unfilled die cavity, material waste, forging forces. the overall optimization scheme used in this research work includes a multi-objective approach that is combination of response surface and finite elemen...

Most industrial processes generate raw heat. To enhance the efficiency of operations, this heat is recovered. Thermoelectric generators (TEG), as solid state devices, provide an excellent application recovery in form most manageable electrical power. This work presents a novel MPPT controller based on Mud Ring Optimization algorithm for centralized Generator (TEG) under dynamic thermal gradient...

The mammalian gonad arises as a bipotential primordium from which a testis or ovary develops depending on the chromosomal sex of the individual. We have previously used DNA microarrays to screen for novel genes controlling the developmental fate of the indifferent embryonic mouse gonad. Maestro (Mro), which encodes a HEAT-repeat protein, was originally identified as a gene exhibiting sexually d...

Complete mitochondrion-related organelle (MRO) genomes of several subtypes (STs) of the unicellular stramenopile Blastocystis are presented. Complete conservation of gene content and synteny in gene order is observed across all MRO genomes, comprising 27 protein coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, and 16 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes. Despite the synteny, differences in the degree of overlap betwe...

[1] The objectives of the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) Radio Science Gravity Investigation are to improve knowledge of the static structure and characterize the temporal variability of the Martian gravitational field relevant to the planet’s internal dynamics, the structure and dynamics of the atmosphere, and the orbital evolution of spacecraft at Mars. The investigation will utilize range...

in interventional or observational longitudinal studies, the issue of missing values is one of the main concepts that should be investigated. the researcher's main concerns are the impact of missing data on the final results of the study and the appropriate methods that missing values should be handled. regarding the role and the scale of the variable that missing values have been occurred and ...

The massive deployment of small-sized cells for the Fifth Generation (5G) mobile network will increase Handover Probability (HOP), potentially causing higher Ping-Pong (HPPP) and/or Radio Link Failure (RLF). Inappropriate usage Control Parameter (HCP) settings may further exasperate this issue. Therefore, Mobility Robustness Optimisation (MRO) has been introduced and developed as a significant ...

angelica essential oil (ao), a major pharmacologically active component of angelica sinensis (oliv.) diels, possesses hemogenesis, analgesic activities and sedative effect. the application of ao in pharmaceutical systems had been limited because of its low oxidative stability. the ao-loaded gelatin-chitosan microcapsules with prevention from oxidation were developed and optimized using response...

One of the greatest predictors for resident success on the Orthopaedic In-Training Examination (OITE) is reviewing previous OITE questions. However, no studies have examined which review sources contain the most answers to previously asked OITE questions. The goal of this study was to determine which review source contains the most answers to previously asked OITE questions. Each question from ...

Fluctuation Electron Microscopy (FEM) examines the scattering statistics from small volumes of thin amorphous materials to detect the presence of medium-range order (MRO) [1]. By now it has been thoroughly demonstrated, by both modeling and simulations, that FEM is extraordinarily sensitive to MRO, much more than high-resolution diffraction and high-resolution imaging. Experiments have confirme...
