Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMPLEMENTATION OF SPACE VECTOR PULSE WIDTH MODULATION TECHNIQUE WITH GENETIC ALGORITHM TO OPTIMIZE UNIFIED POWER QUALITY CONDITIONERM. Shankar, S. Monisha, H. Shesna et al.This study proposes a novel control design of Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC). This design is enabled by a control framework that employs Genetic Algorithm which determines optimum points and angle for filtering and Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation Technique (SVPWM) to offer significant flexibility to optimize waveform. In addition the same framework integrates the major functions of the UPQC … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 14 Dec 2013 · 6,715 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRadiation and Thermal Effects in Experimental High Dense Metal Fuel Elements for Advanced LMFRGolovchenko YulianKnown disadvantages of high-dense α-U metal fuel (intense radiation growth and radiation swelling, poor compatibility with steel claddings) can be reduced to the minimum by "constructive" approaches based on mechanical restraint of radiation growth and swelling and also on application of protective layers on fuel columns and claddings. Effectiveness of these methods has been confirmed during irradiation of full-sized fuel … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 26 Aug 2013 · 7,029 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCiprofloxacin Induced Chondrotoxicity and TendinopathyElias Adikwu, Nelson BrambaifaCiprofloxacin is one of the fluoroquinolones with a wide clinical acceptability. Rescently there are increasing reports on Ciprofloxacin induce Chondrotoxicity and Tendinopathy in Animal experiment and clinical experience which is of great clinical concern. A comprehensive survey and review of literaure on reported ciprofloxacin induced Chondrotoxicity and Tendinopathy in Humans and Animals was performed. It was observd that ciprofloxacin is … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 19 Oct 2012 · 10,420 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEcofriendly and Simplified Synthetic Route for Polysulfone-based Solid-State Alkaline Electrolyte MembraneAphiruk Chaisena, Samroeng Krachodnok, Chutharat Khonkeng, Nittaya PantamasProblem statement: Recently the alkaline system for fuel cell enhance their presence because of possibility of no-precious-metal catalyst and low over potential at cathode reaction. The anion exchange membrane for alkaline membrane fuel cell should be a key technology in order to achieve the practical performance as fuel cells. Alkaline anion exchange membranes of high ionic conductivities are made from … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 10 · 15 Aug 2012 · 8,013 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Dietary Polydextrose on Clinical Signs of Canine OsteoarthritisA. C. Beynen, D. H.J. Saris, L. De Jong et al.Problem statement: Osteoarthritis is an inflammatory joint disease associated with loss of cartilage matrix. There is suggestive evidence that the intake of polydextrose fiber has anti-inflammatory activity. It was reasoned that polydextrose may have a positive influence on canine osteoarthritis. Approach: A double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with privately owned dogs was carried out to assess the efficacy of STA-LITE® polydextrose in … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 5 Oct 2011 · 9,056 accessesView PDFCite
