Design Improvement of a Viscous-Spring Damper for Controlling Torsional Vibration in a Propulsion Shafting System with an Engine Acceleration Problem

In order to cope with strengthened marine environmental regulations and to reduce fuel consumption, recently constructed vessels are equipped with an ultra-long stroke engine and apply engine de-rating technology.This was intended to improve propulsion efficiency by adopting a larger diameter propeller turning at a lower Organs speed but also resul

Semisolid liver infusion tryptose supplemented with human urine allows growth and isolation of Trypanosoma cruzi and Trypanosoma rangeli clonal lineages

Abstract: INTRODUCTION This work shows that 3% (v/v) human urine (HU) in semisolid Liver Infusion Tryptose (SSL) medium favors the growth of Trypanosoma cruzi and T.rangeli.METHODS Parasites were plated as individual or mixed strains on WAND SSL medium and on SSL medium with 3% human urine (SSL-HU).Isolate DNA was analyzed using polymerase chain re
