Delivery, defined

Specifications for gas turbine fuels prescribe test limits that must be met by the refiner who manufactures fuel however, it is customary for fuel users to define quality control limits for fuel at the point of delivery or of custody transfer. These limits must be met by third parties who distribute and handle fuels on or near the airport. Tests on receipt at airport depots include appearance, distfllation, flash point (or vapor pressure), density, freezing point, smoke point, corrosion, existing gum, water reaction, and water separation. Tests on delivery to the aircraft include appearance, particulates, membrane color, free water, and electrical conductivity.

Kotas [3] has drawn a distinction between the environmental state, called the dead state by Haywood [1], in which reactants and products (each at po. To) are in restricted thermal and mechanical equilibrium with the environment and the truly or completely dead state , in which they are also in chemical equilibrium, with partial pressures (/)j) the same as those of the atmosphere. Kotas defines the chemical exergy as the sum of the maximum work obtained from the reaction with components atpo. To, [—AGo], and work extraction and delivery terms. The delivery work term is Yk k kJo ln(fo/pt), where Pii is a partial pressure, and is positive. The extraction work is also Yk kRkTo n(po/Pk) but is negative. 

Work instructions define the work required in terms of who is to perform it, when it is to commence and to be completed, what standard it has to meet, and any other instructions which constrain the quality, quantity, delivery, and cost of the work required. Work instructions are the product of implementing a control procedure, an operating procedure or a document standard (see further explanation below). 

By producing a quality plan or a verification plan that identifies the verification stages from product conception to delivery and further as appropriate, and refers to other documents that define the specific requirements at each stage... 

Electro-osmosis has been defined in the literature in many indirect ways, but the simplest definition comes from the Oxford English Dictionary, which defines it as the effect of an external electric held on a system undergoing osmosis or reverse osmosis. Electro-osmosis is not a well-understood phenomenon, and this especially apphes to polar non-ionic solutions. Recent hterature and many standard text and reference books present a rather confused picture, and some imply directly or indirectly that it cannot take place in uniform electric fields [31-35]. This assumption is perhaps based on the fact that the interaction of an external electric held on a polar molecule can produce only a net torque, but no net force. This therefore appears to be an ideal problem for molecular simulation to address, and we will describe here how molecular simulation has helped to understand this phenomenon [26]. Electro-osmosis has many important applications in both the hfe and physical sciences, including processes as diverse as water desahnation, soil purification, and drug delivery. 

A typical futures contract might call for the delivery of 1,()()(1 barrels (42,()00 U.S. gallons) of unleaded gasoline meeting defined specifications at petroleum product terminals in New York Flarbor during the... 

The adrenergic dragp are important in the care and treatment of patients in shock. Shock is defined as a life-threatening condition of inadequate perfusion. In shock, there is an inadequate supply of arterial blood flow and oxygen delivery to the cells and tissues. The body initiates compensatory mechanisms to counteract the symptoms of shock (eg, the release of epinephrine and norepinephrine), hi some situations, the body is able to compensate and blood pressure is maintained. However, if shock is untreated and compensatory mechanisms of the body fail, irreversible shock occurs and... 

The theoretical delivery of a piston pump is equal to the total swept volume of the cylinders. The actual delivery may be less than the theoretical value because of leakage past the piston and the valves or because of inertia of the valves. In some cases, however, the actual discharge is greater than theoretical value because the momentum of the liquid in the delivery line and sluggishness in the operation of the delivery valve may result in continued delivery during a portion of the suction stroke. The volumetric efficiency, which is defined as the ratio of the actual discharge to the swept volume, is normally greater than 90 per cent. 

In conclusion, until now insufficent data have been available to define general rules to predict for which drugs liposome encapsulation will be therapeutically beneficial when applied to the skin. It is too early to draw definite conclusions about the advantage of the vise of liposomes over alternative dermal delivery systems in the therapy for drugs designed to exert a pharmacological effect either locally or systemically. 

The combined experience with IV rt-PA treatment beyond 3 hours, therefore, suggests reduced effectiveness compared to treatment within 3 hours. A pooled analysis of the ATLANTIS, ECASS, and NINDS rt-PA studies confirmed that the odds of a favorable 3-month outcome, defined as minimal or no poststroke disability on the BI, mRS, and NIHSS, decreased with increasing stroke onset to start of treatment time (OTT) (p = 0.005). The odds ratios for favorable outcome with rt-PA treatment were 2.8 (95% Cl 1.8. 5) for OTT 0-90 minutes, 1.6 (95% Cl 1.1-2.2) for 91-180 minutes, 1.4 (95% Cl 1.1-1.9) for 181-270 minutes, and 1.2 (95% Cl 0.9-1.5) for 271-360 minutes. This finding, that earlier treatment is associated with more therapeutic efficacy, supports the adage that in the delivery of acute stroke therapy time is brain. " The rate of sICH was not associated with OTT. ... 

After the knowledge domain, the end users and the experts have been defined, a choice must be made for the software environment for the development of the expert system. In addition, the hardware for the development process as well as for the delivery system must be identified. Real application expert systems always require at least a mid-sized tool (see Section 43.7). 

Preterm birth is defined by the World Health Organisation as birth occurring prior to 37 weeks gestation (normal gestation is 40 weeks) and is the cause of the majority of perinatal morbidity or mortality. By this definition the incidence of preterm birth is 5-10% in the western world [3]. Predicting preterm delivery is extremely difficult, though there are known risk factors that... 

The singular and defining characteristic enjoyed by the AOS is the way in which its stimuli arrive. Entry of semiochemicals is by fluid-borne presentation via the nose, nose and mouth, or mouth alone. It is a method which avoids many of the vagaries of entirely air-borne delivery. Chemosignalling by whatever route is an inherently wasteful and inefficient way of communicating information because of the lack of control over the transmission medium. The signal that eventually... 

Enteral nutrition (EN) is broadly defined as delivery of nutrients via the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. This could include normal oral feeding as well as delivery of nutrients in a liquid form by a tube. Sometimes when the term enteral nutrition is used, only tube feedings are included hence the terms enteral nutrition and tube feedings are often used synonymously. The bulk of this chapter will include information regarding delivery of feedings via tubes. Formulas for EN usually are delivered in the form of commercially prepared liquid preparations, although some products are produced as powders for reconstitution. 

When second generation candidates differing from finasteride only at the C17 position were considered for development, a second team was tasked with defining the synthesis while the first delivery of finasteride was being completed. Three ketones were considered as potential back-up compounds, the s-Bu, i-Pr, and i-Bu ketones (2,19, 3 in Scheme 3.4). Ideally, the new route would allow divergence at a late stage of the synthesis to make both finasteride and the ketone selected for...
