Effect of Surface Texturing Parameters on the Lubrication Characteristics of an Axial Piston Pump Valve Plate

In this article, a geometrical model of different microtextures is established for an axial piston pump valve plate.A finite differential method was used to solve the Reynolds equation for the oil film thickness and pressure, which were simulated under different microtextures.The influence of microtexture shape and structure on performance was stud

Novel Mechanism for Scavenging of Hypochlorite Involving a Periplasmic Methionine-Rich Peptide and Methionine Sulfoxide Reductase

ABSTRACT Reactive chlorine species (RCS) defense mechanisms are important for bacterial fitness in diverse environments.In addition to the anthropogenic use of RCS in the form of bleach, these compounds are also produced naturally through Shirts photochemical reactions of natural organic matter and in vivo by the mammalian immune system in response
