Évaluation des facteurs de pénibilité du travail et évolutions technico-organisationnelles : un défi pour l’ergonomie by Annabelle Chassagnieux, Alain Garrigou, Monique Lortie, Catherine Teiger, Gabriel Carballeda, Vincent Pargade, Pierrick Pasquereau, Carole Perraut, Pascal Auguste, Philippe Escuredo, Gérard Kévorian

“…Thirty years apart, ergonomists were asked the same question by trade unions and employer associations namely, to assess the occupational risks of rotary press operators and the impact on their health and life expectancy. This paper aims to present the method and main results of two studies led respectively in 1976/1978 and 2007/2009, underlining the interest of a multi-disciplinary approach (ergonomics, ergo-toxicology, socio-epidemiology and statistics) that integrated diverse methods for tackling such a complex issue. …”

Towards Improved Prognostic Scores Predicting Survival in Patients with Brain Metastases: A Pilot Study of Serum Lactate Dehydrogenase Levels by Carsten Nieder, Kirsten Marienhagen, Astrid Dalhaug, Jan Norum

“…Accurate prognostic information is desirable when counselling patients with brain metastases regarding their therapeutic options and life expectancy. Based on previous studies, we selected serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) as a promising factor on which we perform a pilot study investigating methodological aspects of biomarker studies in patients with brain metastases, before embarking on large-scale studies that will look at a larger number of candidate markers in an expanded patient cohort. …”

Telomere Biology: Key to unlocking the fountain of youth…A Systematic Review. by Anirban Poddar, Anup Kumar Rana, Ranjita Santra, Phalguni Chakrabarti

“…Advances in medical science has lead to increase in life expectancy of human beings all over the world. Deterioration of physiological functions is typically associated with ageing process.This often manifests as various diseases which eventually creates a burden on health infrastructure.Telomere attrition is a phenomenon which involves shortening of telomeres with each cycle of cell division.The phenomenon of “Telomere Attrition” is a “Bi edged sword” as while being a protective shield for the genome on one hand, it also is the cause of many senility related degenerative disorders. …”

FATIGUE STRENGTH ANALYSIS AND OPTIMIZATION OF FSC RACING EXHAUST SYSTEM by QI Qi, LIU HaoTian, WU XiaoJian, LUO Cheng

“…The exhaust pipe of engine is subjected to alternating load of low and high temperatures during operation,which is prone to fatigue damage.For the FSC（Formula Student China） racing engine with the highest speed of 11 000 r/min～13 OOOr/min,the exhaust pipe fatigue problem is more serious.In this paper,the FSC racing exhaust system is taken as the research object to analyze its fatigue strength and optimize the exhaust pipe thickness.Firstly,the Fluent software is used to analyze the conjugate heat transfer of the exhaust system to determine the temperature distribution of the exhaust system.Then the temperature distribution is mapped to the finite element mesh of the exhaust system,and the thermal stress and thermal strain are analyzed by finite element technology.Subsequently,two schemes including exhaust manifold " normal operation-parking cooling" cycle and extreme working condition cycle are designed to carry out the thermal cycle simulation.It is found that the exhaust gas accumulates plastic deformation under the alternating load of each cycle,and the exhaust system will eventually crack and be destroyed.Finally,the fatigue life of the two schemes is studied by using Ansys nCode DesignLife fatigue analysis software.The results show that both schemes effectively reflect the life expectancy of low-cycle fatigue damages under the combined action of exhaust manifold temperature field,thermal stress and strain.Based on the above analysis,the exhaust thickness is optimized by the extreme working condition circulation scheme.and it is verified by experiments that the 1.2 mm thickness steel pipe meets the FSC exhaust requirements.…”
