Abstract
A superconducting synchronous motor with an inductor containing bulk high temperature superconductor and BiSrCaCuo wires has been studied in this paper. The principle of operation is based on the interaction between the two spatial variable magnetic fields in the motor air gap. One of the two aforementioned magnetic fields is produced by the superconducting inductor based on magnetic shielding of high temperature superconductors. A procedure is developed to calculate the magnetic field produced by the inductor in the environment of the commercial finite element code ANSYS. The HTS motor is designed to develop 100 hp (the rated power). © 2008 Australasian Universities Power Engineering...

Abstract
Keratinocyte Growth Factor (KGF) is a paracrine-acting, epithelial mitogen that plays a prominent role in the regeneration of damaged epithelial tissues. In spite of different attempts to produce recombinant human KGF in many organisms, including bacteria, mammalian cells, plant cells and insect cells; production of recombinant form suffers from lower yields and recovery relative to other recombinant proteins of similar size and properties. Due to many advantages of Pichia pastoris expression systems for producing industrial enzymes and pharmaceutical proteins, in this study P. pastoris was chosen as a host for KGF expression. For preparing human KGF coding sequence, MCF-7 cell line was...
Limiting fault currents in wind power plants using superconductive shielded core reactors

Abstract
In this paper we investigate the effects of superconducting shielded core reactor (SSCR) on the operation of induction generators. Large number of induction generators used in wind power plants generally increase the short circuit current level of the system. The reason is that they provide parallel reduced-impedance paths for the fault currents. Taking advantage of SSCR in wind power plants allows for using these generating units in large numbers with no concerns about the system fault current increments. The study is performed on a test system using the conventional model of an induction generator and a new effective model for SSCR based on its shielding behavior. Mathematical equations...

Abstract
Ramsar, in the north of Iran by the Caspian Sea, has been known for the highest natural radiation background on Earth due to the local geology and hydrogeology. The residents and visitors use the hot springs that distribute the natural radionuclides especially 226Ra and its decay products in the areas. Many studies have been undertaken to measure the absorbed dose rate in Ramsar's air, however, no survey has been done to assess public internal exposure from ingestion of natural radionuclides, such as, a broad survey for 226Ra was conducted in foodstuffs and drinking water. This study presents the results of public annual activity intake (Bq) and effective dose (μSv) from ingestion of 226Ra...
