Explosive welding is a solid-state joining technique that employs explosive energy to propel the flyer plate into oblique collision with the base plate, forming a metallurgical bond at 5326058hx the interface.The process parameters, such as the loading ratio, the nature of the explosive, the standoff distance, and the surface finish, determine whet
Towards the science of managing for innovation: conclusion & future research directions
We initiated this series with a view to catalyse and extend the focus on conceptualisation and application of behavioural science methods for managing innovation, albeit from a whole human perspective.We started with the notion that how to increase individual (human) creativity, collaboration productivity and innovativeness in innovation projects i
Nonpharmacological Self-Management of Migraine Across Social Locations: An Equity-Oriented, Qualitative Analysis
Background Migraine is a disabling neurological disorder and the sixth biggest cause of disability worldwide.The World Health Organization has declared migraine a major public health problem due to a paucity of knowledge about cause and effective treatment options.Both in incidence and severity, migraine disproportionately affects people occupying
429 Elevated Phosphate Levels Induce Lung Inflammation and Exacerbate Pulmonary Fibrosis
OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Using a cell culture model, we will determine the effects of phosphate on primary lung cell cultures and use our results to delineate a pathway through which these changes are carried out.Using animal models, we will determine the effects of phosphate on inflammatory and fibrotic lung injury, both in the presence and absence of CK
Center-of-Gravity Variation-Driven Spherical UAV System and Its Control Law
Most of the spherical unmanned aerial vehicles (SUAVs) use control surfaces, which are functions of aileron and an elevator, to generate control torque.The work proposes a new conceptual design of an SUAV system controlled through center-of-gravity (CG) variations with its path-tracking control law designed for the system.Compared to the one using
