Antibiotic resistance In recent years a challenge to the effective treatment of an ever-increasing range of infections caused by microbes is antimicrobial resistance (AMR). AMR results in reduced effectiveness of antibiotics‚ making the treatment of patients very difficult and sometimes impossible. The impact on especially susceptible patients is most evident‚ resulting in prolonged illness and increased mortality. The total problem caused by AMR on medical field in general and healthcare sector

SISTEMAS DC Motors Catedrático: Ing. Gustavo Mendoza Leal Alumno: Alfredo Valdés Cárdenas Introduction A DC motor is a type of electrical machine that converts direct current into mechanical power by means of a magnetic field. DC motors are widely used in field applications because of their many advantages over AC motors such as speed control‚ high starting torque‚ quick starting‚ stopping‚ reverse and acceleration and free from harmonics found in AC. Applications of DC motors include but

Civil resistance is political action that relies on the use of nonviolent resistance by civil groups to challenge a particular power‚ force‚ policy or regime. Civil resistance operates through appeals to the adversary‚ pressure and coercion: it can involve systematic attempts to undermine the adversary’s sources of power‚ both domestic and international. Forms of action have included demonstrations‚ vigils and petitions; strikes‚ go-slows‚ boycotts and emigration movements; and sit-ins‚ occupations

to best design and operate a system‚ usually under conditions requiring the allocation of scarce resources. By a system‚ we mean an organization of interdependent components that work together to accomplish the goal of the system. For example‚ Ford Motor Company is a system whose goal consists of maximizing the profit that can be earned by producing quality vehicles. The term operations research was coined during World War II when British military leaders asked scientists and engineers to analyze several

Resistance in a Conductor: The electrical resistance of an electrical conductor is the opposition to the passage of an electric current through that conductor. Electrical resistance shares some conceptual parallels with the mechanical notion of friction. The SI unit of electrical resistance is the ohm (Ω).An object of uniform cross section has a resistance proportional to its resistivity and length and inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area. All materials show some resistance‚ except

How to overcome individual-level resistance to organizational changes Abstract Organization change is prevalent‚ we cannot avoid failure in working‚ it is just the question about sooner or later. When we met frustration‚we have to take steps to alter the environment.Thus‚ change in organization is a necessary result of standstill. However‚ where there is change‚ there is resistance to change. Lectures show that resistance of employees is always the largest barrier for the organization
