    ABSTRACT: The major objective of this project is to build up a device for wireless power transfer (WPT). Wireless power transfer can make an extraordinary change in the field of the electrical engineering which eliminates the use of conventional copper cables and current carrying wires. WPT is based on strong coupling between electromagnetic resonant objects to transfer energy wirelessly between them. The tuned magnetic fields generated by the primary coil can be arranged to interact vigorously with matched secondary windings in distant equipment but far more weakly with any surrounding objects or materials such as radio signals or biological tissues. But for very long distances, microwave transmission is used for the effective transfer of power. KEYWORDS: wireless power transfer (WPT) ,magnetic fields , microwave transmission and electromagnetic resonant

    The hidden burden of influenza: A review of the extra-pulmonary complications of influenza infection

    Get PDF
    Severe influenza infection represents a leading cause of global morbidity and mortality. Although influenza is primarily considered a viral infection that results in pathology limited to the respiratory system, clinical reports suggest that influenza infection is frequently associated with a number of clinical syndromes that involve organ systems outside the respiratory tract. A comprehensive MEDLINE literature review of articles pertaining to extra-pulmonary complications of influenza infection, using organ-specific search terms, yielded 218 articles including case reports, epidemiologic investigations, and autopsy studies that were reviewed to determine the clinical involvement of other organs. The most frequently described clinical entities were viral myocarditis and viral encephalitis. Recognition of these extra-pulmonary complications is critical to determining the true burden of influenza infection and initiating organ-specific supportive care

    CIN85 phosphorylation is essential for EGFR ubiquitination and sorting into multivesicular bodies

    Get PDF
    Ubiquitination of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) by cbl and its cognate adaptor cbl-interacting protein of 85 kDa (CIN85) is known to play an essential role in directing this receptor to the lysosome for degradation. The mechanisms by which this ubiquitin modification is regulated are not fully defined, nor is it clear where this process occurs. In this study we show that EGFR activation leads to a pronounced src-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of CIN85 that subsequently influences EGFR ubiquitination. Of importance, phospho-CIN85 interacts with the Rab5-positive endosome, where it mediates the sequestration of the ubiquitinated receptor into multivesicular bodies (MVBs) for subsequent degradation. These findings provide novel insights into how src- kinaseā€“based regulation of a cbl adaptor regulates the fate of the EGFR

    Malware is malevolent programming which irritates the system PC operation, hacking the touchy data and gets to the private frameworks. It is only a project which is particularly intended to harm the PC it might be an infection or worm. Along these lines, keeping in mind the end goal to defeat this issue a two-layer system model is exhibited for reenacting infection spread through both Bluetooth and SMS. The two strategies are examined for controlling the versatile infection engendering. i.e., preimmunization and versatile appropriation strategies drawing on the philosophy of self-sufficiency situated processing (AOC). Yet, this strategy does not consider the mixture infections that disperse by means of both BT and SMS channels. In this way, to expand the productivity of controlling the engendering of cell telephone infections, we present a creative methodology called a Hybrid infection identification model. The cross breed malware can be disseminated by both end to-end informing administrations through individual social correspondences and short-extend remote correspondence administrations. In this system, another differential comparison based technique is proposed to analyze the blended practices of Ā  Delocalized virus and swell based spread for the cross breed malware in summed up informal communities including of individual and spatial social relations. A test result demonstrates that the proposed framework is computationally viable to recognize the crossover malware. Studies on the engendering of malware in versatile systems have uncovered that the spread of malware can be very inhomogeneous. Stage differing qualities, contact list use by the malware, grouping in the system structure, and so on can likewise prompt contrasting spreading rates. In this paper, a general formal structure is proposed for utilizing such heterogeneity to infer ideal fixing approaches that achieve the base total cost because of the spread of malware and the extra charge of fixing. Utilizing Pontryagin's Maximum Principle for a stratified scourge model, it is logically demonstrated that in the mean-field deterministic administration, ideal patch spreads are straightforward single-edge arrangements. Through numerical recreations, the conduct of ideal fixing approaches is examined in test topologies and their points of interest are illustrated
