A Concept for the Estimation of Displacement Fields in Flexible Wind Turbine Structures
The design of wind turbines is based on conservative load assumptions compared to the actual load conditions at the designated erection site. As a consequence, structural reserves are very likely at the end of...

Chapter
Airway Humidification
The alveolar air is fully saturated with water vapor at core body temperature while ambient air is cooler and contains less water. This gradient in heat and water vapor pressure is maintained along the nose an...

Chapter
Creatine and Creatine Kinase in Health and Disease – A Bright Future Ahead?
Many links are reported or suspected between the functioning of creatine, phosphocreatine, the creatine kinase isoenzymes or the creatine biosynthesis enzymes on one hand, and health or disease on the other ha...

Chapter
Pre-Symptomatic Treatment of Creatine Biosynthesis Defects
Recent observations in two patients, one with AGAT deficiency (AGAT-D) and one with GAMT deficiency (GAMT-D), both diagnosed already at birth, provide first evidence for important therapeutic effects of pre-sy...
