Catalysed Biofuels Using Vegetable Oils and Animal Fats
Abstract: It is a first to use biochemical modification of fats to create fuel for transport. The chemical transformation is required to produce products that are more useful and have qualities similar to those of crude oil-derived fuels. Biodiesel (a combination of methyl esters produced by transesterification) and green diesel are the two forms of fuels discussed (paraffins produced by hydrogenation of oils). Three bio-lubricant synthesis strategies are also discussed. Biofuels …

Condition Monitoring of a Round Bar with a Defect Using Vibration Analysis
Abstract: As an energy-saving and high-efficient stress relieving process, vibratory stress relief [VSR] influence of on fatigue life is still explicit and needs further investigation. Standard specimens are manufactured to study the VSR effects on 2014 T6 aluminum alloy fatigue behavior. Dynamic stresses generated during vibration are measured by strain gauge and the residual stresses with and without VSR are compared to validate the stress relieving effects. Eventually, fatigue tests are …

Effect of Notch on Low Cycle Fatigue of AA 2024-T351
Abstract: Notch effect on low cycle fatigue of AA 2024-T351 was investigated. Decreasing notch curvature leads to less cyclic hardening. Values of fatigue strength exponent (b) and fatigue ductility (c) for notch specimens were out of range of metallic materials. The SEM examination showed multi-crack origins with secondary cracks and a large final-fracture zone for unnotched specimens, while there was small final fracture zone close to the center of the specimen …

Vitamin D Mitigates Inflammation and Downregulates Importin α3 in Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD)
Abstract: Background: Pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and IL-8, seem to play a crucial role in the progression of NAFLD as they activate the transcription factor NF-кB. The activated NF-кBp50/RelA subunits are translocated to the nucleus by Importin α3 and Importin α4. Numerous studies have indicated a negative association between NAFLD and vitamin D levels. Low vitamin D levels have been correlated with histological severity, necro-inflammation, and fibrosis in …
