Wind turbines with double output induction generators can operate at variable speed permitting conversion efficiency maximization over a wide range of wind velocities. This paper presents the performance analysis of a wind driven double output induction generator (DOIG) operating at varying shafts speed. A periodic transient state analysis of DOIG equipped with two converters is carried out usi...

chronic lymphocytic leukemia (cll) remains an incurable disease that requires innovative new approaches to improve therapeutic outcome. many ferula species, including f. asa-foetida, synthesize terpenyloxy coumarins. one of these coumarins is umbelliprenin, which has been implicated with induction of apoptosis in some cancer cell lines.     in this study induction of apoptosis by umbelliprenin ...

purpose: although there are ample evidences for the effects (mostly decrease) of intraocular pressure (iop) after the administration of atracurium and cisatracurium during general anesthesia in ophthalmic operations, no study has yet been done to compare their effects on both iop and pupillary diameter (pd) simultaneously. the aim of this study was to determine whether there is any difference b...

We show a connection between Lusztig induction operators in finite general linear and unitary groups and parabolic induction in cyclotomic rational double affine Hecke algebras. Two applications are given: an explanation of a bijection result of Broué, Malle and Michel, and some results on modular decomposition numbers of finite general groups. 2010 AMS Subject Classification: 20C33 Dedicated t...

Transcriptional expression of a gene or genes is absolutely required for induction of glucocorticoid-induced thymocyte apoptosis. We have previously shown that expression of T cell death-associated gene 8 (TDAG8) is quickly induced exclusively in the thymus after dexamethasone (DEX) treatment. Here, we present data that TDAG8 expression is induced prior to induction of DEX-mediated apoptosis. I...
