New Design Formulae for Safety and Precision in the Fatigue Engineering of Mechanical Components and Structures
Abstract: This paper introduces two new formulae, termed the Nori Fatigue Formulae, for determining the maximum allowable fatigue stress in mechanical components and structures with significant stress concentrations. These formulae will eliminate the usage of code-sensitive safety factors along with other factored values from the entire mechanical design engineering work, ranging from a safety pin to spacecraft. The first formula gives the maximum allowable fatigue stress in tension, and the second …

The Role of Pyruvate Dehydrogenase in Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: Therapeutic Insights and Future Directions
Abstract: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disorders (NAFLD) are defined by the accumulation of excess fat in the liver that has no other cause, such as drinking alcohol. Pyruvate dehydrogenase has been established as an alternative treatment for this disorder. NAFLD pathogenesis is complex and includes oxidative stress inflammatory processes and mitochondrial dysfunction. Impaired liver fatty acid oxidation and glucose oxidation are significant individuals in developing NAFLD, and strategies to reverse these defects …

Nutritional Status, Bioactive Properties & Therapeutic Efficacy of Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids Obtained by Green Synthetic Routes
Abstract: Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), particularly omega-3 (n-3) fatty acids like eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), are crucial for human health. They support structural brain development, visual acuity, and cardiovascular function, while also exhibiting potent anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties. Historically, marine fish oil has been the primary dietary source of these essential fatty acids. However, escalating concerns regarding ecological environmental impacts, the oceanic bioaccumulation of heavy metal contaminants, …

Engineering Fatty Acid Oxidation Pathway for the Production of Yeast-based Monomers
Abstract: Yeast-based monomers have a wider application in many fields and used for polymer production. Yeast system is used to improve the production of such valuable monomers by exploiting the metabolic pathways of interest. Alkane-utilizing yeasts mediate the fatty acid catabolism inside the peroxisomes primarily through beta (β) oxidation pathway, which breaks up the long chain fatty acids resulting in the synthesis of energy producing molecules. This allows the reduced inflow …

Proportion Tests Applied in Assessors’ Selection Under Assumption Break: The Cases of Sensory Fatigue and Learning Process
Abstract: Triangle trials are commonly employed in panelist selection, describing a Binomial distribution. However, assessors can fatigue or develop sensitivity after many trials, which violate constant proportion assumption. This violation could affect some tests obtained from normal distribution interval estimators (TN1, TN2 and TN3), F distribution (TF), Sequential Test (TS) and Poisson approximation with quantile (TP). To evaluate this tests performance, Monte Carlo simulations were performed for 1000 assessors through 5, …

Role of Fatigue and Creep in Structural Damage: A Comprehensive Review
Abstract: Fatigue and creep are two critical degradation mechanisms that significantly influence the structural integrity and longevity of engineering materials. These phenomena arise due to different loading and environmental conditions but often coexist in various industrial applications, leading to severe material degradation over time. Fatigue primarily results from cyclic loading, where repeated stress variations induce microstructural damage and crack initiation, ultimately causing catastrophic failure. Conversely, creep occurs under sustained stress at …
