Circadian misalignment and health [PDF]
International Review of Psychiatry, 2014 Circadian rhythms are near 24-h patterns of physiology and behaviour that are present independent of external cues including hormones, body temperature, mood, and sleep propensity. The term 'circadian misalignment' describes a variety of circumstances, such as inappropriately timed sleep and wake, misalignment of sleep/wake with feeding rhythms, or ...

Energies, 2018 Utilization of wireless power transfer in light rail transits is seen as one solution for electrification of lines. The main advantage of this supply system is the reduction of installation; moreover, the alignment between the transmitter coil in the ...

Black Hole Spin-Orbit Misalignment in Galactic X-ray Binaries
, 2010 In black hole X-ray binaries, a misalignment between the spin axis of the black hole and the orbital angular momentum can occur during the supernova explosion that forms the compact object.

Misaligned feeding impairs memories [PDF]
eLife, 2015 Robust sleep/wake rhythms are important for health and cognitive function. Unfortunately, many people are living in an environment where their circadian system is challenged by inappropriate meal- or work-times. Here we scheduled food access to the sleep time and examined the impact on learning and memory in mice. Under these conditions, we demonstrate

The Application of Heterogeneous Information Fusion in Misalignment Fault Diagnosis of Wind Turbines
Energies, 2018 The misalignment of the drive system is one of the important factors causing damage to gears and bearings on the high-speed output end of the gearbox in doubly-fed wind turbines.

Consensus under misaligned orientations [PDF]
2017 17th International Conference on Control, Automation and Systems (ICCAS), 2017 This paper presents a consensus algorithm under misaligned orientations, which is defined as (i) misalignment to global coordinate frame of local coordinate frames, (ii) biases in control direction or sensing direction, or (iii) misaligned virtual global coordinate frames.

Design Improvement of Stuffing Box Seals of Centrifugal Pump Shafts, Based on the Study of the Sealing Mechanism Physical Model [PDF]
Journal of Mechanical Engineering, 2020 Stuffing box seals are the most common type of pump rotor seals because they are adjustable and periodically restorable assemblies during operation. Based on the study of physical processes, a sealing mechanism model of the stuffing box seal is formed ...
