Expression of strain tensor in orthogonal curvilinear coordinates

Based on an analysis of connotation and extension of the concept Pill Crushers and Cutters of the orthogonal curvilinear coordinates, we have deduced a platform of strain tensor expression of Cartesian coordinates, which turns out to be a function of Lame coefficient and unit vector.By using transform matrix between Cartesian coordinates and orthog

Semi-rational design and modification of phosphoketolase to improve the yield of tyrosol in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Tyrosol is an important component of pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and cosmetics, and their biosynthetic pathways are currently a hot research topic.d-Erythrose 4-phosphate is a key precursor for the biosynthesis of tyrosol in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.Hence, the flux of Curler d-Erythrose 4-phosphate determined the yield of tyrosol synthesis.In

Model-based PEEP optimisation in mechanical ventilation

Abstract Background Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) patients require mechanical ventilation (MV) for breathing support.Patient-specific PEEP is encouraged for treating different patients but there is no well established method in optimal PEEP selection.Methods A study of 10 patients diagnosed with ALI/ARDS whom underwent recruitment mano
