In this work, a full rotordynamic analysis is performed for a 5-kN thrust gas turbine while taking into account bearing stiffness and damping dynamics. The shaft of the studied single spool gas turbine is supported by a deep groove ball bearing and a squeeze film damper. The dynamic stiffness and damping coefficients of these two bearings are used in a finite element model belonging to a C-class formulation for the study of whirl speeds and unbalance responses. The first six modal orbits of the ...

Regeneration of spinal cord injury (SCI) is a major topic of biomedical research. Laminin is an extracellular matrix protein implicated in neural development and regeneration, but despite that, there are no reports of exogenous laminin contributing to improve the outcome of experimental SCI. Here we investigated whether a biomimetic polymer of laminin assembled on pH acidification, henceforth called polylaminin, could be used to treat SCI in rats. Acute local injection of polylaminin, but not of ...

Purpose Most pleural effusions are associated with bacterial pneumonia, and the identification of the pathogen will assist the therapeutic decision. A specific method that is not affected by previous antibiotic therapy is sought to detect the main causative agents of pneumonia in infants and children (Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, and Staphylococcus aureus). The aim of the present study was to compare the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique with standard culture methods in ...

Abstract Introduction We previously developed an artificial intelligence (AI) model for automatic coronary angiography (CAG) segmentation, using deep learning. To validate this approach, the model was applied to a new dataset and results are reported. Methods Retrospective selection of patients undergoing CAG and percutaneous coronary intervention or invasive physiology assessment over a one month period from four centers. A single frame was selected from images containing a lesion with a 50–99% stenosis ( ...

Although automatic artificial intelligence (AI) coronary angiography (CAG) segmentation is arguably the first step toward future clinical application, it is underexplored. We aimed to (1) develop AI models for CAG segmentation and (2) assess the results using similarity scores and a set of criteria defined by expert physicians.Patients undergoing CAG were randomly selected in a retrospective study at a single center. Per incidence, an ideal frame was segmented, forming a baseline human dataset (BH), ...

Monitoring the weight of beef cattle is important for productive strategies. The main goal of this work was to automatically extract measurements from 2D images of the dorsal area of Nellore cattle to estimate the weight of these cattle using regression algorithms. For this purpose, Euclidean distances from points generated by the Active Contour Model, together with features obtained from the dorsal Convex Hull, were selected. These were submitted to Bagging, Regression by Discretization and Random ...

Conventional soil fertility analyses are laborious, costly, time-consuming, and produce hazardous waste. The high demand of these laboratory-based analyses prompted us to investigate an environment-friendly, rapid, and inexpensive methodology for soil fertility assessment. Portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF) spectrometry allows the determination of total elemental concentration in soils quickly, simply and without hazardous waste production. However, incipient usage of this technology for the prediction ...

The evolution of the symbiotic association with microbes allowed termites to decompose ingested lignocellulose from plant-derived substrates, including herbivore dung and soil humus. Representatives of the Syntermitinae (Termitidae) range in their feeding habits from wood and litter-feeding to humus-feeding species.

During the early periods of antibiotic usage, bacterial infections were considered tamed. However, widespread antibiotic use has promoted the emergence of antibiotic-resistant pathogens, including multidrug resistant strains. Active efflux is a mechanism for bacterial resistance to inhibitory substances, known simply as drug efflux pumps. The bacterium Staphylococcus aureus is an important pathogenic bacterium responsible for an array of infections. The NorA efflux pump has been shown to be responsible ...
