Discordance Between Patient and Physician Global Assessments in Early Systemic Sclerosis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study aims to identify factors associated with patient global assessment (PtGA) and physician global assessment (PhGA) and discordance between them in systemic sclerosis (SSc). Methods Data from adults with early SSc (<5 years) from the Collaborative National Quality and Efficacy Registry were included.

Effect of Step-Change Radiation Flux on Dynamic Characteristics in Tower Solar Cavity Receiver

Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2013
The heat flux on the inner surface of the tower solar thermal power plant system will show the characteristics of noncontinuous step change, especially in nonnormal and transient weather conditions, which may result in a continuous dynamic variation of ...

CFD Analysis of a Receiving Cavity Suitable for a Novel CSP Parabolic Trough Receiver

Energy Procedia, 2014
The aim of this work was to study, by means of accurate 3D steady-state CFD simulations, the thermo-fluid dynamics behavior of a helically coiled heat exchanger (HCHE) constituting the receiving cavity of the novel CSP receiver based on Airlight Energy technology.

Real‐World Safety and Effectiveness of JAK Inhibitors in Systemic Sclerosis: A Propensity‐Matched Study from the EUSTAR Cohort

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective JAK inhibitors (JAKis) have shown promising effects in early‐phase studies of SSc. We aimed to assess the safety and explore effectiveness of JAKis compared to conventional immunosuppressants in SSc. Methods A longitudinal retrospective study of the EUSTAR cohort was performed.

CFD-based optimization of aperture geometry for reducing forced convection losses in a cylindrical cavity receiver of a dish/stirling system

Case Studies in Thermal Engineering
Convective heat losses due to airflow recirculation at the cavity aperture are among the main efficiency limitations of Dish/Stirling solar receivers. While previous studies have primarily focused on internal modifications or advanced working fluids to ...

Electrochemical Evaluation of Compressed Selective Laser Melted AlSi7Mg and AlSi10Mg Alloys in Chloride Environment

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The corrosion performance of AlSi7Mg and AlSi10Mg alloys produced through selective laser melting (SLM) was examined under compressive stress in a chloride environment. Electrochemical analyses, including open‐circuit potential (OCP), potentiodynamic polarization (CPP), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), were complemented by scanning ...

Solar Cavity Receiver for a Stirling Engine

, 2012
In this Bachelor thesis a solar cavity receiver together with a parabolic concentrating mirror has been designed for a Stirling engine, which traditionally runs on gas or bio-fuels. These design changes make it possible to run the engine on solar energy.
