THE IMPORTANCE OF SLOW-WAVE SLEEP (SWS) DURING NOCTURNAL SLEEP IS WIDELY CONFIRMED. THE FACT THAT THE RATES OF CEREBRAL NEURAL FIRING are lowest during SWS, the length of SWS is correlated with the length of prior wakefulness, and the cerebrum is isolated from sensory input and from subcortical structures suggests that SWS is associated with tissue restitution.1 Recently, the recuperative effec...

heat exchangers are the critical components of refrigeration and liquefaction processes. selection of appropriate operational conditions for cryogenic recuperative heat exchanger and expansion valve operating in joule-thomson cooling system results in improving the performance and efficiency. in the current study, a straightforward procedure is introduced to design an efficient joule-thomson co...

Natural gas is becoming an increasingly important energy source, due to the increasing energy demands and declining oil reserves, whereas large volumes of natural gas are still widely available at remote locations. In view of the existing infrastructure for liquid fuels, natural gas is most efficiently used in the transport sector by converting it to liquid fuels via the Gas-To-Liquid process. ...

Using Lady Caroline Lamb as a case study, this essay models book historical approach to the author function and introduces concept of recuperative materiality—repairing one’s reputation through circulation material objects. It resituates within broad media context highlights her diverse creative output in sheet music, literary annuals, illustrations children’s books, an account book. These obje...

Selective extraction of a protein from a mixture can be accomplished using an adsorptive membrane and low displacement recuperative parametric pumping. Low displacement recuperative parametric pumping can lead to the preferential transport of an adsorbing solute and the rejection of nonadsorbing solutes by the adsorptive membrane. Using a protein mixture consisting of lysozyme and myoglobin, we...

to think that advanced age is not such an important negative factor in the prognosis of wounds, injuries, operations, or disease as it is stated to be. When we remember that in old persons the physical powers are becoming weakened; that the wear and tear is not so easily combated ; that the skin and internal organisms are lessening in their secretory powers; that the muscular tissue is becoming...
