The Putative Role of the Antiageing Protein Klotho in Cardiovascular and Renal Disease by Giuseppe Maltese, Janaka Karalliedde

“…Klotho is mainly expressed in the renal tubules but it also exists as circulating soluble form detectable in the blood, with systemic effects. Reduction in soluble Klotho has been associated with renal disease, hyperphosphataemia, increased oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, and diffuse vascular calcification. …”

Chaos Anticontrol and Switching Frequency Impact on MOSFET Junction Temperature and Lifetime by Cristina Morel, Jean-Yves Morel

“…This is why we propose an original analysis of the influence of anticontrol of chaos and switching frequency variation on junction temperature: we investigate the correlation between the lifetime of the power electronic switching component and its thermal stress due to the addition of chaos. It appeared that a reduction in the current ripple did not degrade the MOSFET junction thermal performance, despite the fast switching of the MOSFET. …”

The Impact of Non-constant Inertia and Nonlinear Damping on the Torsional Vibration Characteristics of Internal Combustion Engine Including External Forces by Hameed D. Lafta

“…Also, the amplitude of the external excitation torque is strengthened by the secondary excitation inertia torque and introduces multi resonance amplitudes phenomenon and widening the critical range of engine speed which results in producing of dangerous vibrational stress amplitudes. Also, the damped forced results indicate that the presents of damping lead to a vital reduction in the amplitude of torsional displacement and excitation torques. …”
