Numerical Simulation of Knock Combustion in a Downsizing Turbocharged Gasoline Direct Injection Engine

Applied Sciences, 2019
Engine knock has become the prime barrier to significantly improve power density and efficiency of the engines. To further look into the essence of the abnormal combustion, this work studies the working processes of normal combustion and knock combustion

Efficient biallelic knock-in in mouse embryonic stem cells by in vivo-linearization of donor and transient inhibition of DNA polymerase θ/DNA-PK

Scientific Reports, 2021
CRISPR/Cas9-mediated homology-directed repair (HDR) is used for error-free targeted knock-in of foreign donor DNA. However, the low efficiency of HDR-mediated knock-in hinders establishment of knock-in clones.

Failure of Intravenous Morphine to Serve as an Effective Instrumental Reinforcer in Dopamine D2 Receptor Knock-Out Mice [PDF]

, 2002
The rewarding effects of opiates are thought to be mediated through dopaminergic mechanisms in the ventral tegmental area, dopamine-independent mechanisms in the nucleus accumbens, or both. The purpose of the present study was to explore the contribution

Octane-on-Demand Concept: An Analysis Regarding Combustion Process Properties in Spark Ignition Engine

Energies
The insufficient octane ratings of commercial fuels limit the efficiency of spark-ignition (SI) engines and worsens emissions due to knock. One alternative approach to mitigate this phenomenon is the Octane-on-Demand (OOD) concept, which adjusts fuel ...

Kinetic modelling of runaway electron avalanches in tokamak plasmas

, 2015
Runaway electrons (REs) can be generated in tokamak plasmas if the accelerating force from the toroidal electric field exceeds the collisional drag force due to Coulomb collisions with the background plasma.

On the enhancement of nuclear reaction rates in high-temperature plasma [PDF]

, 2006
We argue that the Maxwellian approximation can essentially underestimate the rates of some nuclear reactions in hot plasma under conditions very close to thermal equilibrium.

NRASQ61R Expression in Lymphatic Endothelial Cells Causes Enlarged Vessels, Hemorrhagic Chylous Effusions, and High Mortality in a Mouse Model of Kaposiform Lymphangiomatosis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Kaposiform lymphangiomatosis (KLA) is an aggressive complex lymphatic anomaly. Patients exhibit malformed lymphatic vessels and often develop hemorrhagic effusions and elevated angiopoietin‐2 (Ang‐2) levels. A somatic NRAS p.Q61R (NRASQ61R) mutation has been associated with KLA.

Bayesian Non-Parametric Inference for Infectious Disease Data [PDF]

, 2014
We propose a framework for Bayesian non-parametric estimation of the rate at which new infections occur assuming that the epidemic is partially observed.

An accurate measurement of electron beam induced displacement cross sections for single-layer graphene

, 2012
We present an accurate measurement and a quantitative analysis of electron-beam induced displacements of carbon atoms in single-layer graphene. We directly measure the atomic displacement ("knock-on") cross section by counting the lost atoms as a ...

Chemical, Natural, and Cultural Control of \u3ci\u3eHyadaphis Tataricae\u3c/i\u3e (Homoptera: Aphididae) on Honeysuckle [PDF]

, 2017
Hyadaphis tataricae is an aphid pest of honeysuckle relatively new to the Great Lakes and midwestern regions of North America. Feeding results in severly deformed terminals (witches\u27 brooms).
