In the current investigation, a multi response optimization technique based on Taguchi method coupled with Hook Grey relational analysis is planned for wire-EDM operations on ballistic grade aluminium alloy for armour applications.Experiments have been performed with four machining variables: pulse-on time, pulse-off time, peak current and spark vo
Hybrid Electric Aircraft Propulsion Case Study for Skydiving Mission
This paper describes a case study FX799G for applying innovative architectures related to electrified propulsion for aircraft.Electric and hybrid electric propulsion for aircraft has gained widespread and significant attention over the past decade.The driver for industry interest has principally been the need to reduce emissions of combustion engin
Renal Leiomyosarcoma: A Diagnostic Challenge
Renal leiomyosarcoma is a very rare tumor that clinically and radiographically mimics more common renal malignancies.The infrequency of the condition makes it very difficult to diagnose.A 70-year-old male smoker presented with months of hematuria, right-sided flank pain, and weight loss.Imaging Indiana Jones revealed a 3.8-centimeter renal mass tha
THE ROLE OF PIGS AS PHARYNGEAL CARRIERS OF HUMAN PATHOGENIC YERSINIA ENTEROCOLITICA STRAINS
From March 2007 to January 2008, a total of 170 pigs at slaughter were tested for Y.enterocolitica Hand Cream contamination in tonsils tissue.The animals came from 125 different farms located in four regions of Northern Italy.Y.enterocolitica was isolated from 19 out of Food Art 170 (11.2%) tonsils samples.The prevalent bio-serotype (68.4%) was 4/O
