Experimental assessment of head losses through elliptical and sharp-edged orifices

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Nicolas Jean François Pascal Ghislain Adam

Due to the European electricity market liberalization and the appearance of other renewable electricity producers, an increase of installed peak power capacity is relevant to provide larger amount of electricity in a shorter turbine duration. When the disc ...

Human audiometric thresholds do not predict specific cellular damage in the inner ear

Demetri Psaltis

Introduction: As otology enters the field of gene therapy and human studies commence, the question arises whether audiograms - the current gold standard for the evaluation of hearing function - can consistently predict cellular damage within the human inne ...

Fast particle loss channels in Wendelstein 7-X

Jonathan Graves, Wilfred Anthony Cooper, David Pfefferlé, Jonathan Marc Philippe Faustin

One of the main goals of Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X) is to demonstrate the fast particle confinement properties of the quasi-isodynamic stellarator concept. Fast particle populations will be produced either by Neutral Beam Injection (NBI) or by minority Ion Cyc ...

Head loss coefficient through sharp-edged orifices

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Nicolas Jean François Pascal Ghislain Adam

Nowadays, high-head power plants could increase their installed power capacity for many reasons, e.g. dam heightening, increase of their peak power capacity or refurbishment with new turbines. Frequently, due to several considerations, e.g. topographical o ...

Diaphragm In Pressure Pipe: Steady State Head Loss Evolution And Transient Phenomena

Giovanni De Cesare, Nicolas Jean François Pascal Ghislain Adam

With liberalization of European market, many high head power plants in Switzerland increase their potential generation to remain competitive. The existing surge tanks have to be modified to keep the flow management constant. A relevant way to limit the tim ...

Shear-Fatigue Behaviour of RC Cantilever Bridge Deck Slabs under Concentrated Loads

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Francisco Manuel Maciel Natário

Shear has been observed to be the governing failure mode of RC cantilever deck slabs of bridges without shear reinforcement when subjected to concentrated loads of heavy vehicles. This observation has been verified experimentally for a quasi-static applica ...

Experimental investigation on fatigue of concrete cantilever bridge deck slabs subjected to concentrated loads

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Francisco Manuel Maciel Natário

Shear has been observed to be often the governing failure mode of RC cantilever deck slabs of bridges without shear reinforcement subjected to concentrated loads when tested under a quasi-static application of the load. However, concentrated loads of heavy ...

Cerebrospinal fluid-targeted delivery of neutralizing anti-IFN gamma antibody delays motor decline in an ALS mouse model

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the selective and gradual loss of motoneurons in the brain and spinal cord. A persistent inflammation, typified by the activation of astrocytes and microglia, ...

Recent advances in the epidermal growth factor receptor/ligand system biology on skin homeostasis and keratinocyte stem cell regulation

Yann Barrandon

The epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor/ligand system stimulates multiple pathways of signal transduction, and is activated by various extracellular stimuli and inter-receptor crosstalk signaling. Aberrant activation of EGF receptor (EGFR) signaling is ...

Hydraulic design of the diaphragm’s orifice at the entrance of the surge shaft of FMHL pumped-storage power plant

Giovanni De Cesare, Christophe Nicolet, Fadi Hachem, Rafael Xavier Meriade Duarte

The surge tank located at the upstream head of penstocks and shafts of hydropower plants is an effective measure to protect the headrace tunnels against high pressure fluctuations. It reflects the transient pressure waves that are generated by the variatio ...
