Several species of marine tunicates store oxygen-sensitive VIII in blood cells. A sensitive colorimetric VIII assay was used to survey the leading candidates for the native reducing agent of vanadate in tunicates (i.e., An-type tunichromes, glutathione, NADPH, and H2S) in reactions with VV or VIV ions under anaerobic, aqueous conditions at acidic or neutral pH. Except for the case of An-1 and V...

The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that exposure to short-term microgravity or long-term hindlimb unloading induces cardiac atrophy in male Sprague-Dawley rats. For the microgravity study, rats were subdivided into four groups: preflight (PF, n = 12); flight (Fl, n = 7); flight cage simulation (Sim, n = 6), and vivarium control (Viv, n = 7). Animals in the Fl group were expose...

1) It has been found that the peripheral blood of hybrid adult dogs contains about 29.4 % of lymphocytes in average. When such a blood is passed through the glass wool column the leucocytes containing 68-90 % (81.6% in average) lymphocytes are obtained. 2) In the single culture of such lymphocytes alone and mixed culture both live lymphocytes and sonicated lymphocytes in the presence of 1% (vIv...

The Malaria Research and Reference Reagent Resource-recommended PLF/UNR/VIR polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to detect Plasmodium vivax in Anopheles spp. mosquitoes collected in South Korea. Samples that were amplified were sequenced and compared with known Plasmodium spp. by using the PlasmoDB.org Basic Local Alignment Search Tool/n and the National Center for Biotechnology Information...

Vibrations of slender structures associated with the external flow present a design challenge for energy production systems placed in marine environment. The current study explores accuracy semi-empirical wake oscillator models vortex-induced vibrations (VIV) based on optimization (a) damping term and (b) empirical coefficients fluid equation. This work investigates effect ten variations, from ...

A force-feedback control system for VIV experiments is designed and evaluated for the purpose of achieving high accuracy free vibration tests. Through an organized approach, this work details specific methods for minimizing the combined effect of mass and damping using control system fundamentals. The dynamics of the closed-loop system are analyzed, a numerical model constructed and a control s...

This experimental study investigated the control induced by a spanwise surface wire on rigid circular cylinder undergoing vortex-induced vibration (VIV) under conditions of low mass damping in lower synchronization branch. Being motivated idea VIV-based energy harvesting from ocean and river flows, this elastically mounted was immersed water channel, leaving free end at its bottom end, while bo...

The changing three-dimensional vortex shedding topology of a heavy, tethered sphere exposed to uniform flow crossing the onset induced vibrations (VIV) is reported together with simultaneously tracked positions. Transient upstream conditions were imposed by increasing reduced velocity from $U^{*} = 2.2$ 4.5 (‘lock-in’, mode I). Three-dimensional under these transient strongly resembled those at...
