Design and construction of flywheel energy storage systems

Field: Energy (Physical Sciences)

Flywheel energy storage (FES) system can have energy fed in the rotational mass of a flywheel, store it as kinetic energy, and release out upon demand. FES system is famous for moderating speed fluctuations in an engine through its inertia. Flywheel can be easily found in any motor vehicles. Some had named it as FES system as mechanical batteries. With the current latest technology, many industries had work on improving this system to maximise its storage capacity. In this project, a prototype of a simple and basic FES system is being design and fabricated manually, using some simple recycle items (i.e. bicycle wheels, sprockets and chains) so as to keep it at a low cost. The unique characteristic of this FES system uses magnetic forces to rotate one another. The idea of designing the system in such a way is to analyse as to whether by using magnets to move a few flywheels together is effective. A total of two flywheels are fabricated for the FES system and two sets of dynamos are incorporated into the FES system so as to generate some form electrical energy from the dynamos with the energy generated by the flywheels when it rotates. The initial idea was to have all the movement created by means of magnets, however due to some budget constrain, the dynamos are contacted to the flywheels in order to obtain the energy from the flywheels. The initial input power was produce by a DC motor to create a rotation momentum for the entire system. Various experiments had been conducted to check whether more power can be produced with the same number of flywheels available in the system. From the experiments, results shown that more power can be obtained from the flywheel when more power generators (i.e. dynamos) are incorporated into the system. However, the flywheel will lose its momentum fast and the rotational speed of the flywheel will slow down at a fast rate. The location of where the dynamos were placed also played an important factor. From the experiment shows that there are certain locations of where should the dynamos be placed in order to acquire the maximum amount of power.
Antibiotic susceptibility profile of Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa from nipple of breastfeeding mothers attending postnatal care at General Hospital Katsina

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Several microorganisms may contaminate nipples of breastfeeding mothers and become potential to cause mastitis. The aim of this study is to investigate the antibiotic susceptibility profile of Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa from nipples of breastfeeding mothers. Fourty (40) samples were collected using sterile one-use swab sticks from breast nipples of breast-feeding mothers at postnatal and immunization unit of General Hospital Katsina. The samples collected were inoculated on Nutrient agar and Mannitol salt agar by streak plate method. The cultured plates were then incubated for 24 hours at 37ºC after which the plates were observed for growth. Biochemical tests were carried out on the isolates to identify the bacteria. Antimicrobial susceptibility test was carried out for the bacterial isolates using Disc diffusion method. The zones of inhibition observed were measured in millimetres. All the Fourty samples collected were culture positive. Staphylococcus aureus 34 (85%) was the most prevalent bacterium associated with nipple contamination compared to Pseudomonas aeruginosa 6 (15%). Breast-feeding mothers of 18 to 25 years, (75%) have the highest number of contaminated nipples with the bacteria. The antibiotics with highest sensitivity to Staphylococcus aureus was ciprofloxacin, while the ones with the least sensitivity were gentamicin and streptomycin. Staphylococcus aureus was completely resistant to Ampiclox and Cefuroxine. Similarly, Pseudomonas aeruginosa was highly sensitive to ciprofloxacin, while the organism has least sensitivity to amoxicillin. The antibiotics with the highest sensitivity to both organisms are ciprofloxacin, followed by Perfloxacin and amoxicillin.

All-laid-out three-dimensional seismic survey at the Chinese Continental Scientific Drilling site

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

Continental scientific drilling does not means only making a hole,but means to form a feedback system of deep drilling technology and geophysical telemetry that is mainly 3-D seismic survey.Seismic reflection investigations have been carried out for the Chinese Continental Scientific Drilling Project(CCSDP) as an important item.We designed a new method,called all-laid-out three-dimensional survey,for the 3-D seismic investigation at the CCSD drilling site.The new method does not roll shot-geophone configuration during the survey,i.e.,lays out geophones all over the survey area,very proper for 3-D seismic survey in small areas.The advantages of the new method include(1) high efficiency and saving time;(2) high stack fold numbers;and(3) greatly reducing the survey cost.The experiment with the method at the CCSD site completes all the aims of the 3-D survey,including(1) locating geological structures around the CCSD main hole of 5000m;(2) providing highly-accurate 3-D reflectors for future calibration,and(3) finding deep reflectors in the lower crust and mantle.
Linker minimization and characterization of Fc-fused interleukin-17A for increased in vivo half-life

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Abstract Interleukin-17A (IL-17A) is a cytokine involved in pro-inflammatory responses and tissue regeneration, with potential therapeutic and research applications. However, its short serum half-life limits in vivo use. Here, we report the systematic design of fc-IL-17A fusion proteins for extended half-life. Through computational analysis of 25 design variants using AlphaFold, we found that IL-17A's native N-terminal unstructured region functions as a crucial natural linker that cannot be effectively replaced by artificial sequences. We therefore generated mouse and human fc-IL-17A variants using direct N-terminal fusion without additional linkers. The resulting proteins retain IL-17A's ability to stimulate IL-6 production and erythroid cell growth. Pharmacokinetic analysis confirms that the Fc fusion increases the serum half-life in mice from 1.5 to 13 hours post-subcutaneous injection. This enables tractable experimental use of IL-17A in vivo for studying its role in inflammation and tissue repair. We further perform pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics modeling and propose a dosing regimen with reduced frequency of injection for delivering comparable IL-17A activity. This work provides a valuable pharmacological tool for injectable delivery, enabling investigation of IL-17A's biological functions in homeostasis and disease and exploration of its therapeutic potential in tissue regeneration.

Law and Piety in Medieval Islam

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The Ayyubid and Mamluk periods were two of the most intellectually vibrant in Islamic history. Megan H. Reid's book, which traverses three centuries from 1170 to 1500, recovers the stories of medieval men and women who were renowned not only for their intellectual prowess but also for their devotional piety. Through these stories, the book examines trends in voluntary religious practice that have been largely overlooked in modern scholarship. This type of piety was distinguished by the pursuit of God's favor through additional rituals, which emphasized the body as an instrument of worship, and through the rejection of worldly pleasures, and even society itself. Using an array of sources including manuals of law, fatwa collections, chronicles, and obituaries, the book shows what it meant to be a good Muslim in the medieval period and how Islamic law helped to define holy behavior. In its concentration on personal piety, ritual, and ethics the book offers an intimate perspective on medieval Islamic society.
Split alignment, mixed alignment, and the spread of accusative morphosyntax in some archaic Indo-European languages

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Abstract This chapter explores the interaction between nominative–accusative alignment and other alignment patterns in Latin, Classical Greek, Vedic Sanskrit, Hittite, Classical Armenian, and Lithuanian. Although these languages have similar typological properties, they display several important differences at a micro level. We argue that these languages mirror different stages of a general development towards consistently accusative alignment, which above all affects the inherited finite verbal system. On the other hand, some of the languages under consideration also show development patterns that run counter to this general tendency, a fact showing that different types of alignment change may overlap or occur simultaneously, affecting different parts of the verbal system.

Under Deposit Corrosion (UDC) in the Oil and Gas Industry: a Review of Mechanisms, Testing and Mitigation

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Abstract Over the past few years, under deposit corrosion (UDC) has been frequently cited by operators, corrosion engineers, failure forensic analysts, asset integrity authorities and Root Cause Analysis specialists as being a major player in different failures within the oil and gas operations. It has also been identified sometimes as a stand alone corrosion mechanism, separate from CO2, H2S, microbiological influenced corrosion, crevice or galvanic corrosion. This paper presents an overview of UDC definitions, commonly used laboratory testing methods as they relate to the prevalent UDC mechanism and finally proven mitigation measures. It highlights the applications and limitations of each testing method and sets the framework for the standard and the novel mitigation routes. The paper finally addresses the question whether or not UDC is a true standalone corrosion mechanism.
A Short Resource History of Pyramid Lake, Nevada

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This paper relates events surrounding the establishment of the Pyramid Lake Indian Reservation in western Nevada and its subsequent nineteenth century history. Discussion will focus on natural resources associated with the reserved lands. Federal Indian policy, national popular attitudes, and the development of Nevada itself, are all important to understanding the pressures placed on those resources during the early reservation period. The type of interethnic relations established during this time stabilized and strongly influenced the later history of Northern Paiutes in this area. The westward expansion of the United States was deeply rooted in the need for raw materials, a need which affected much of American domestic and Indian policy during the nineteenth century. This paper narrates the early history of the Pyramid Lake Indian Reservation in Nevada, focusing on the utilization of resources. However, this particular history is only a small fragment of larger regional and national events and policies. A broad view is therefore necessary in order to understand the interethnic relationships which developed in western Nevada.' In aboriginal times the Northern Paiute Indians occupied a wedgeshaped range extending from the Blue Mountains of Oregon south along the Sierra Nevada crest. Their territory did not include the valleys where Reno and Carson City are now located, but did extend south again to Owens Lake in California, and from there northeast passing just west of Battle Mountain and Owyhee to the vicinity of Boise. Theirs was a region of deserts split by mountain ranges and crosscut by a few perennial streams, which emptied into salt pans. The Paiutes lived in the major river drainages, including the Truckee and the Walker, utilizing the sinks of both of these rivers, Pyramid and Walker Lakes, as well as the surrounding dry lands. These small bands had a diverse diet, based on the vegetable staples of rice grass seed and pinon nuts, but they ETHNOHISTORY 24/1 (Winter 1977) 47 This content downloaded from 157.55.39.185 on Thu, 26 May 2016 04:43:16 UTC All use subject to http://about.jstor.org/terms
Comparison of FairMOT-VGG16 and MCMOT Implementation for Multi-Object Tracking and Gender Detection on Mall CCTV

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

The crowd detection system on CCTV has proven to be useful for retail and shopping sector owners in mall areas. The data can be used as a guide by shopping center owners to find out the number of visitors who enter at a certain time. However, such information was still insufficient. The need for richer data has led to the development of more specific person detection which involves gender. Gender detection can provide specific information on the number of men and women visiting a particular location. However, gender detection alone does not provide an identity label for every detection that occurs, so it needs to be combined with a multi-person tracking system. This study compares two tracking methods with gender detection, namely FairMOT with gender classification and MCMOT. The first method produces MOTA, MOTP, IDS, and FPS of 78.56, 79.57, 19, and 24.4, while the second method produces 69.84, 81.94, 147, and 30.5. In addition, evaluation of gender was also carried out where the first method resulted in a gender accuracy of 65\% while the second method was 62.35\%.
Biochar amendments improve licorice growth and nutrient uptake through altering the root system and soil enzyme activities in loamy sand under salt stress

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Licorice (Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fish.) is considered as salt and drought tolerant leguminous plant and is thus used to rehabilitate abandoned saline lands. We hypothesized that the biochar amendment into the soil might alleviate salt stress in licorice by improving its plant growth, nutrient acquisition, and root system. The present study was designed to determine the effect of biochar on licorice plant growth, acquisition of C (carbon), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) and on soil fluorescein diacetate (FDA) and enzyme activities under saline soil condition. Pyrolysis char from maize (MBC, 600oC) at 2, 4, and 6 % concentrations were used for pot experiments. The shoot and/or root biomass of licorice grown in soil amended with 2 and 4% MBC under non-saline and saline conditions was increased. Furthermore, increased nodule numbers of licorice grown at 4% MBC amendment was observed under non-saline and saline conditions. The root architectural traits, like root length, surface area, project area, and root volume, as well as nodulation traits, were also significantly modified by biochar application at both 2 and 4% concentrations. The concentrations of N and K in plant tissue were increased under 2 and 4% MBC amendment compared to plants grown without biochar application. Moreover, soil amended with biochar showed a positive effect on soil FDA activity, proteases, acidic phosphomonoesterases under saline soil conditions compared to the control soil. This study demonstrated the beneficial effects of biochar from maize on growth and nutrient uptake of licorice by improving the nodule formation, root architecture, and soil biological activity in saline soil conditions.
[Immunomorphological and histochemical characteristics of the skin in psoriasis].

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Immunomorphologic and histochemical studies of the skin biopsies withdrawn from patients with psoriasis revealed injury to all the structures of both the epidermis and dermis. Of importance is the immune injury to the microcirculatory bed of the skin, associated with sedimentation of immune complexes, IgA, IgG and C-3 component of the complement on vascular walls, endothelial cells and fibrillar structures of the connective tissue. The inflammatory process involving largely the papillary layer of the dermis is accompanied by increased dermoepidermal permeability with a resultant injury to the epidermis, and by sedimentation of the complexes antigen-antibody and complement in the intercellular spaces of granular and horny layers of the capillaries. These data indicate the participation of the immunopathologic reactions in skin injury produced by psoriasis and their implication in the maintenance of the pathologic process in further disease progress.

Do Athletes Imagine Being the Best, or Crossing the Finish Line First? A Mixed Methods Analysis of Construal Levels in Elite Athletes’ Spontaneous Imagery

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

The purpose of this article is to illustrate data transformation in a mixed methods research phenomenological study, investigating how athletes use concrete and abstract spontaneous imagery in and around competition. To achieve this, we combined the application of co-occurring codes and numerical transformation in a novel way. A thematic analysis of qualitative interviews with 12 elite athletes identified concrete imagery to focus on strategy generation, error correction, technique, and preparation, and abstract imagery to focus on desirability, symbolic and verbal representations, and regulation of affect, arousal, and mastery. Statistical analysis identified that subjective effectiveness of imagery significantly differed for sport type (reactive/static) and competition times. Researchers wishing to apply statistical analyses to qualitative data are encouraged to employ our methodology.
