Abstract:
Operation and maintenance (O&M) costs, and associated uncertainty, for wind turbines (WTs) is a significant burden for wind farm operators. Many wind turbine failures are unpredictable while causing loss of energy production, and may also cause loss of asset. This study utilized 753 O&M event data from 21 wind turbines operating in Germany, to improve the prediction of failure frequency and associated costs. We applied Bayesian updating to predict wind turbine failure frequency and time-to-repair (TTR), in conjunction to machine learning techniques for assessing costs associated with f

Abstract BACKGROUND: The FLIPI score has been shown to predict survival in FL pts. Previous studies have suggested that type of treatment, and quality of response may not affect survival in pts with stage IV IFL. We address here the significance of TTF and quality of response as prognostic factors for survival in stage IV IFL. METHODS: We reviewed the records of 580 pts with stage IV IFL treated from 1972- to 2002 with anthracycline containing regimens +/− rituximab.

I-V characterization of Ta-Ta2O5-MnO2 capacitors was investigated at different temperatures, and Poole–Frenkel (PF) emission saturation was experimentally observed. Under the saturation voltage, the I-V curves at different temperature converged, and the temperature dependency was vanished. Above the saturation voltage, the leakage current was decreasing as the temperature increased. In order to evaluate the effects of saturation voltages (VS) on time-to-failure (TTF) of the capacitors, VS were first determined at +2°C and +25°C, then voltage accelerating tests were conducted at 85°C under 1.6

113 Background: Checkpoint inhibitor (CPI) therapies have shown prolonged survival in patients (pts) with microsatellite instability (MSI). Tumor mutation burden (TMB) has also been associated with benefit from CPIs, with pembrolizumab recently approved for solid tumors with a TMB of ≥10 muts/mb. However, the validity of a tissue-agnostic approach has been debated given the high degree of TMB variation across tumor types.
