Wave generation by an oscillating surface-pressure and its application in wave-energy extraction

TL;DR: In this paper, a two-dimensional analysis based on linear surface-wave theory is developed for an oscillating-water-column wave-energy device in water of arbitrary constant depth, and the results show that air compressibility can be important in practice, and its effects may in general be satisfactorily represented by linearization.

TL;DR: This research presents a novel probabilistic procedure called “spot-spot analysis” that allows for real-time analysis of the response of the immune system to natural disasters.
Journal ArticleDOI

Classification of healthcare-associated infection: a systematic review 10 years after the first proposal.

TL;DR: The definition initially proposed in 2002 is widely accepted and, in a future revision, recent invasive procedures, hospitalization in the last year or previous antibiotic treatment should be considered for inclusion in the definition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quality of life of survivors from severe sepsis and septic shock may be similar to that of others who survive critical illness

TL;DR: Evaluation using the EQ-5D at 6 months after ICU discharge indicated that survivors from severe sepsis and septic shock have a similar HR-QoL to that of survivors from critical illness admitted without sepsi.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of Wells turbine design parameters by numerical simulation of the OWC performance

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the influence of the turbine aerodynamic design on the overall plant performance, as affected by the turbine peak efficiency and the range of flow rates within which the turbine can operate efficiently.
