Performance limitations of observer-based feedback for transient energy growth suppression

open access: yes, 2018
Transient energy growth suppression is a common control objective for feedback flow control aimed at delaying transition to turbulence. A prevailing control approach in this context is observer-based feedback, in which a full-state feedback controller is

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

Correction Factors for the Use of 1D Solution Methods for Dynamic Laminar Liquid Flow through Curved Tubes

open access: yesFluids
The modeling of transient flows of liquids through tubes is required for studies in water hammer, switched inertance hydraulic converters, and noise reduction in hydraulic equipment.

Investigation of Water Hammer Protection in Water Supply Pipeline Systems Using an Intelligent Self-Controlled Surge Tank

open access: yesEnergies, 2018
A surge tank is a common pressure control device in long pressurized pipelines. The performance is greatly influenced by the location, cross area, and the characteristics of the connector. In order to improve the property of the surge tank, the effect of

Swirling astrophysical flows - efficient amplifiers of Alfven waves

open access: yes, 2002
We show that a helical shear flow of a magnetized plasma may serve as an efficient amplifier of Alfven waves. We find that even when the flow is purely ejectional (i.e., when no rotation is present) Alfven waves are amplified through the transient, shear-

Crucial parameters for precise copy number variation detection in formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded solid cancer samples

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study shows that copy number variations (CNVs) can be reliably detected in formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded (FFPE) solid cancer samples using ultra‐low‐pass whole‐genome sequencing, provided that key (pre)‐analytical parameters are optimized.

MATHEMATICAL MODELING FOR WATER HAMMER IN PIPE FLOW

open access: yesJournal of Engineering and Sustainable Development, 2018
Water hammer phenomenon is a transient flow in pipes that was created by rapid changes of velocity in pipelines. This phenomenon can be caused strong positive and negative pressures in water pipelines.

A transient production prediction method for tight condensate gas wells with multiphase flow

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development
Considering the phase behaviors in condensate gas reservoirs and the oil-gas two-phase linear flow and boundary-dominated flow in the reservoir, a method for predicting the relationship between oil saturation and pressure in the full-path of tight ...
