Multiple sclerosis is an inflammatory disorder causing central nervous system demyelination and axonal injury.Although its etiology remains elusive, several lines of evidence support the concept that autoimmunity plays a major role in disease pathogenesis.The course ofMS is highly variable; nevertheless, the majority of patients initially present a
The most Cacao common way to increase power and reduce fuel consumption by modern power plants is contact cooling of a gas or air flow by water injection.A promising development of this direction is to use aerothermopressor technologies.The use of heat air, which is compressed by the power plant compressors, accelerates the flow to a speed close to
While all lower limb prosthesis walkers have a high risk of tripping and/or falling, above knee prosthesis users are reported to fall more frequently.Recognising this, engineers designed microprocessor knees (MPK) to help mitigate these risks, but to what extent these devices reduce this disparity between above and below knee users is unclear.A ser
The seismic response of a wide variety of structures, from small but irreplaceable museum exhibits to large bridge systems, is characterized by rocking.In addition, rocking motion is increasingly being used as a seismic protective strategy to limit the amount of seismic actions (moments) developed at the base of structures.However, rocking is a hig
This paper proposes an energy-saving system based on a prefill system and a buffer system to improve the energy efficiency and the processing performance of hydraulic presses.Saving energy by integrating such systems into the cooling system of a hydraulic press has not been previously reported.A prefill system, powered by the power unit of the cool
