TL;DR: It is shown that a substantial proportion of variation in liability to schizophrenia must be the result of common causal variants, that the variance explained by each chromosome is linearly related to its length, and that the genetic basis of schizophrenia is the same in males and females.
Abstract: Schizophrenia is a complex disorder caused by both genetic and environmental factors. Using 9,087 affected individuals, 12,171 controls and 915,354 imputed SNPs from the Schizophrenia Psychiatric Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) Consortium (PGC-SCZ), we estimate that 23% (s.e. = 1%) of variation in liability to schizophrenia is captured by SNPs. We show that a substantial proportion of this variation must be the result of common causal variants, that the variance explained by each chromosome is linearly related to its length (r = 0.89, P = 2.6 × 10 −8 ), that the genetic basis of schizophrenia is the same in males and females, and that a disproportionate proportion of variation is attributable to a set of 2,725 genes expressed in the central nervous system (CNS; P = 7.6 × 10 −8 ). These results are consistent with a

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the performance of eight turbulence models, potentially suitable for indoor airflow, in terms of accuracy and computing cost, including Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) modeling, hybrid RANS and largeeddy simulation (or detached-eddy simulation [DES]).
Abstract: Numerous turbulence models have been developed in the past two decades, and many of them can be used in predicting airflows and turbulence in enclosed environments. It is important to evaluate the generality and robustness of the turbulence models for various indoor airflow scenarios. This study evaluated the performance of eight turbulence models, potentially suitable for indoor airflow, in terms of accuracy and computing cost. These models cover a wide range of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approaches, including Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) modeling, hybrid RANS and large-eddy simulation (or detached-eddy simulation [DES]), and large-eddy simulation (LES). The RANS turbulence models tested include the indoor zero-equation model, three two-equation models (the RNG k-∊, low Reynolds number k-∊, and SST k-ω models), a three-equation model ( model), and a Reynolds-stress model (RSM). The investigation tested these models for representative airflows in enclosed environments, such as forced con...

TL;DR: The how membranes work is discussed, and some notable new approaches for improving their performance are discussed.
Abstract: Synthetic membranes are used in many separation processes, from industrial-scale ones—such as separating atmospheric gases for medical and industrial use, and removing salt from seawater—to smaller-scale processes in chemical synthesis and purification. Membranes are commonly solid materials, such as polymers, that have good mechanical stability and can be readily processed into high–surface area, defect-free, thin films. These features are critical for obtaining not only good chemical separation but also high throughput. Membrane-based chemical separations can have advantages over other methods—they can take less energy than distillation or liquefaction, use less space than absorbent materials, and operate in a continuous mode. In some cases, such as CO2 separations for CO2 capture, their performance must be improved. We discuss how membranes work, and some notable new approaches for improving their performance.

TL;DR: In this article, the fundamental aspects of separations by pervaporation through zeolite membranes are reviewed, and examples of the selectivities and fluxes obtained are presented, including the effects of coverage, competitive adsorption, heat of adaption, molecular sizes, temperature, membrane structure, non-zeolite pores, concentration polarization and support resistance on transport and separations.
