Experimental and finite element studies of a 250 kW brushless doubly fed induction generator

The Journal of Engineering, 2019
This study studies, using experimentally verified finite element (FE) analysis, various performance measures of the brushless doubly fed induction generator (BDFIG) when magnetic wedges are used for closing stator open slots.

Flagellar Stators Activate a Diguanylate Cyclase To Inhibit Flagellar Stators [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 2019
The bacterial secondary metabolite cyclic di-GMP is a widespread, cytoplasmic signal that promotes a physiological transition in which motility is inhibited and biofilm formation is activated. A paper published in this issue (A. E. Baker, S. S. Webster, A. Diepold, S. L. Kuchma, E.

Intraoperative Collection of Ascitic Fluid With Intra‐ or Postoperative Reinfusion in Ovarian Cancer: Safety and Feasibility of a Roller Pumping Method

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Patients with ovarian cancer often present with massive ascites, leading to significant protein loss during surgical procedures. Although cell‐free concentrated ascites reinfusion therapy (CART) is used in palliative settings to mitigate protein loss, its application in intraoperative settings remains unexplored.

Upacicalcet: A Novel Intravenous Calcimimetic Agent for Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis With Secondary Hyperparathyroidism

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common complication in patients receiving maintenance dialysis, driven by calcium and phosphate metabolism disturbances. Calcimimetics are central to the management of SHPT by enhancing calcium‐sensing receptor sensitivity and reducing parathyroid hormone secretion.

Performance of superconducting generators with different topologies under fault conditions

The Journal of Engineering, 2019
This paper compares the short-circuit performance of superconducting (SC) generators with three different topologies, i.e. iron-cored stator and rotor, iron-cored stator and air-cored rotor, and air-cored stator and rotor.

Adjunctive Therapeutic Plasma Exchange in Refractory Adult‐Onset Still's Disease Complicated by Secondary Macrophage Activation Syndrome: A Single‐Center Experience

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Adult‐onset Still's disease (AOSD) complicated by macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) carries substantial mortality. The role of therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) remains uncertain. Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients with AOSD‐MAS treated with TPE at a single‐center.

Revealing the structure of land plant photosystem II: the journey from negative‐stain EM to cryo‐EM

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Advances in cryo‐EM have revealed the detailed structure of Photosystem II, a key protein complex driving photosynthesis. This review traces the journey from early low‐resolution images to high‐resolution models, highlighting how these discoveries deepen our understanding of light harvesting and energy conversion in plants.

Comparative investigation of stator-mounted permanent magnet machines under fault conditions

The Journal of Engineering, 2019
Here, machines having permanent magnets (PM) mounted in the stator are compared during fault operations such as armature winding short circuits. The magnet potential irreversible demagnetisation is also investigated due to the fact that the PMs are ...

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)
