Predict the characteristics of the DI engine with various injection timings by Glycine max oil biofuel using artificial neural networks by Rajak, Upendra, Panchal, Manoj, Dasore, Abhishek, Verma, Tikendra Nath, Chaurasiya, Prem Kumar

“…In this study, the result of varying fuel injection timings on the performance, ignition, and exhaust parameters of a research engine with single-cylinder, four-stroke with direct injection (DI) diesel was experimentally investigated and optimised using artificial neural networks (ANN). The results demonstrated that a 20% fuel blend with 24.5° before top dead centre (b TDC) decreased brake thermal efficiency (BTE), NOx emissions, and exhaust cylinder temperature but improved fuel consumption, carbon dioxide emissions (CDE), and smoke emissions. …”

Impact of pyridyl moieties on the inhibitory properties of prominent acyclic metal chelators against metallo-β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae : investigating the molecular... by Sosibo, Sphelele C., Somboro, Anou M., Amoako, Daniel G., Osei Sekyere, John, Bester, Linda A., Ngila, Jane C., Sun, Darren Delai, Kumalo, Hezekiel M.

“…Di-(2-picolyl) amine and tris-(2-picolyl) amine exhibited great efficacy against different types of MBLs and strong binding affinity for NDM-1, whereas 2-picolyl amine did not show activity at a concentration of 64 mg/L in combination with meropenem; it further showed the lowest binding affinity from computational molecular analysis, commensurating with the in vitro screening assays. The findings revealed that the pyridyl group plays a vital role in the inhibitory activity of the tested molecules against CREs and should be exploited as potential MBL inhibitors.…”

Legislating instability: Adam Smith, free banking, and the financial crisis of 1722 by Goodspeed, T

“…In support of previous research on Scottish “free banking,” I find that this absence of legal restrictions on Scottish banking contributed to a proliferation of what Adam Smith derisively referred to as “beggarly bankers” which rendered the Scottish financial system both intensely competitive and remarkably resilient to a series of severe adverse shocks to the small developing economy. …”
