To investigate how manufacturing errors affect the gear set, a method is developed to calculate the contact stress of a gear set with pitch and involute incline errors. The method is parametric, and a hybrid model is used to model the gear stiffness. Contact outside the line of action is considered.A numerical example is used to show how manufacturing errors can change the contact pressure and cau
Large Eddy Simulation (LES) of an incompressible, turbulent, co-annular swirling flow field have been performed in order to compare the influence of different subgrid scale (SGS) models. Two models were investigated, an implicit model and a stress similarity model. In the simulations using the implicit approach, no explicit SGS model was used. For the stress similarity model, similar behaviour bet
Context: Open tools (e.g., Jenkins, Gerrit and Git) offer a lucrative alternative to commercial tools. Many companies and developers from OSS communities make a collaborative effort to improve the tools. Prior to this study, we developed an empirically based theory for companies’ strategic choices on the development of these tools, based on empirical observations in the telecom domain. Aim: The ai
The ligand Ph2PC6H4(CH2N(Me)CO(Et)) reacts with (bis(diphenylphosphino)butane) (2,5-norbornadiene)rhodium tetrafluoroborate (2a) and (bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane)(2,5-norbornadiene) rhodium tetrafluoroborate (2b) at room temperature in the presence of hydrogen to displace the norbornadiene and give the chelate complexes 3a,b, in which the phosphorus and the oxygen atoms are coordinated to give an
Quantifying net CO2 exchange (NEE) of arctic terrestrial ecosystems in response to changes in climatic and environmental conditions is central to understanding ecosystem functioning and assessing potential feedbacks of the carbon cycle to future climate changes. However, annual CO2 budgets for arctic tundra are rare due to the difficulties of performing measurements during non-growing seasons. It
Introduction: We assessed whether modest systemic cooling started within 6 hours of symptom onset improves functional outcome at three months in awake patients with acute ischaemic stroke. Patients and methods: In this European randomised open-label clinical trial with blinded outcome assessment, adult patients with acute ischaemic stroke were randomised to cooling to a target body temperature of
We study, from an experimental point of view, the main ways to detect standard high mass Higgs bosons (from 300 Gev up to about 1 TeV) when they decay into W- and Z- pairs at the SSC. We also consider the corresponding W- and Z”-pair continuum which may itself provide interesting physics, and we pay some attention to the case of an intermediate mass charged Higgs decaying into rvr, (met =300 GeV).
Immunoglobulins or antibodies are the main effector molecules of the B-cell lineage and are encoded by hundreds of variable (V), diversity (D), and joining (J) germline genes, which recombine to generate enormous IG diversity. Recently, high-throughput adaptive immune receptor repertoire sequencing (AIRR-seq) of recombined V-(D)-J genes has offered unprecedented insights into the dynamics of IG re
Searches for dijet resonances with sub-TeV masses using the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider can be statistically limited by the bandwidth available to inclusive single-jet triggers, whose data-collection rates at low transverse momentum are much lower than the rate from standard model multijet production. This Letter describes a new search for dijet resonances where this limitation is
Objective—To determine medium-term outcome after arterial switch operation for complete transposition in a population-based cohort.Design—Retrospective study of all 86 patients operated on at our institution from 1982 to 2000. Age at operation was 0-256 days (median 6 days); 28 (32%) had closure of a ventricular septal defect, 2 of whom had double outlet right ventricle. Additional surgery include
In the light of recent results from the experiments at HERA, the treatment of DIS in the Colour Dipole Model is reviewed and improved. A procedure where the first emission in the dipole cascade is matched onto the exact O(αS) matrix element is introduced, giving a more correct dependence of the three-jet rate onQ2. Also a new treatment of the proton remnant is introduced assuming a pomeron-like
The article describes a new method for determining the biological age (BV) of a person, developed by a team of authors: A. Skrebneva, V. Popov, A. Buslova. The goal and objectives are to develop a new method for assessing BV with determining its validity and usefulness for predicting the rate of aging in the framework of a large national sample of people. Material and methods. For the work, anonym
Background and aims: Gambling-related crimes are known to be associated with gambling disorder (GD). Due to a lack of consensus in the scientific community regarding the relevance of this diagnostic criterion, it was removed from the DSM-5. The primary aim of this study was to investigate through structural equation modeling (SEM) whether higher GD severity in treatment-seeking GD patients with a
