The article presents a method for diagnosing cycloidal gear damage on a laboratory stand. The damage was simulated by removing the sliding sleeves from two adjacent external pins of the cycloidal gearbox. Damage to the sliding sleeves may occur under operating conditions and can lead to the destruction of the gear unit. Hence, early detection is essential. Signals from torque sensors, rotational speed sensors and vibration acceleration sensors of input and output shafts for various rotational speeds and transmission loads were recorded. The frequency analysis of these signals was carried out. Due to the fluctuation of the rotational speed, the frequency spectrum gives an approximate picture and is not useful in detecting this type of damage. The statistical characteristics of the signal were determined. However, only statistical moments of higher orders, such as kurtosis, are sensitive to the tested damage. Therefore, the use of multifractal analysis of the vibration signal using the wavelet leader method (WLMF) was considered. Then log-cumulants of the multifractal spectrum were selected as the new signal features.

Typical waveforms used for the simulation of pressure and volume-controlled ventilation in medical ventilators have been extensively studied in the literature. The majority of simulation studies reported employ the step pattern or ramp pattern to model the pressure and flow variations in pressure/volume-controlled ventilation. It was observed that the above waveforms tend to add to the discomfort level of patients due to the presence of jerks in derivatives of pressure/flow variations; the pressure/flow variation of air and oxygen mixture should be smooth so that the patient discomfort is kept at a minimal level.

Background: Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a rare and complex neurodevelopmental disorder resulting from absent paternal expression of maternally imprinted genes at chromosomal locus 15q11-13. This absence of expression occurs as a consequence of a deletion on the chromosome 15 of paternal origin (ca. 70%), a chromosome 15 maternal uniparental disomy (mUPD; ca.

We report resonant elastic x-ray scattering of long-range magnetic order in EuPtSi_{3}, combining different scattering geometries with full linear polarization analysis to unambiguously identify magnetic scattering contributions. At low temperatures, EuPtSi_{3} stabilizes type A antiferromagnetism featuring various long-wavelength modulations. For magnetic fields applied in the hard magnetic basal plane, well-defined regimes of cycloidal, conical, and fanlike superstructures may be distinguished that encompass a pocket of commensurate type A order without superstructure.

Cycloid psychosis is a disorder defined by episodic, acute psychoses involving thought, affect, and motor disturbances with polymorphous symptomatology followed by periods of full remission. Antipsychotics, benzodiazepines, and electroconvulsive therapy have been used empirically in acute treatment. This disorder has faced nosologic challenges and is not yet identified as a diagnostic entity by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM).
