Abstract

STEVE CARLTON A GATHERING OF IMMORTALS The first-ever MLB All-Star Game in 1933 featured 11 future Hall of Famers in the starting lineups. That team, which finished sixth in the eight-team National League with a 58-80-2 record, included future Hall of Famer Vic Willis. TOUGH TO FAN I noticed that in Lou Boudreau's 1948 MVP season for Cleveland he had 676 plate appearances and struck out only nine times. [Extracted from the article]

23. Factors affecting the selectivity of the oxidation of methyl p-toluate by cobalt(III)

Abstract

The anaerobic oxidation of methyl p-toluate by cobalt(III) in acetic acid is examined. The selectivity for the oxidation of methyl p-toluate displayed by the mixed-metal cluster complex is shown to be similar to that seen by the addition of chromium to oxidations by using [[Py.sub.3][Co.sub.3]O[(OAc).sub.5]OH][P[F.sub.6]].

Abstract

These are just a few of the things we'll see this year, but it doesn't come close to being an exhaustive list. We anticipate having our yearly discussions over the worthiness of state's motorcycle helmet law. We'll find ourselves advocating for stricter texting-while-operating laws and seat belt enforcement. The insurance companies will probably get an earful over narrow networks and prior authorization. Telemedicine will likely come up; as will the pharmaceutical industry and their numerous endeavors. We'll have to watch some public health groups who will attempt to offer solutions to their own issues for their select set of patients. We're the only state without a Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP), so that will be in play Plus, the chiropractors, optometrists, midwives, etc., never seem to go away And on and on and on... Be sure to read MSMA's weekly Legislative Report during the 2015 session. It will keep you in the loop on all the above and then some. And don't forget to volunteer as the MSMA Physician of the Day at the Capitol. It's not difficult, and the legislators love seeing one their physicians from back home. Look for a sign-up sheet on the MSMA website soon. If you have any questions about our advocacy efforts on your behalf, feel free to give me a call anytime at 573-636-5151, or email jhowell@msma.org.

30. A drag coefficient for application to the WLTP driving cycle

Author

Passmore, Martin, Howell, Jeff, Dominy, Robert, Howell, Jeff, Forbes, David, and Passmore, Martin

Abstract

The aerodynamic drag characteristics of a passenger car have, typically, been defined by a single parameter: the drag coefficient at a yaw angle of 0°. Although this has been acceptable in the past, it does not provide an accurate measure of the effect of aerodynamic drag on fuel consumption because the important influence of the wind has been excluded. The result of using drag coefficients at a yaw angle of 0° produces an underprediction of the aerodynamic component of fuel consumption that does not reflect the on-road conditions. An alternative measure of the aerodynamic drag should take into account the effect of non-zero yaw angles, and a variant of wind-averaged drag is suggested as the best option. A wind-averaged drag coefficient is usually derived for a particular vehicle speed using a representative wind speed distribution. In the particular case where the road speed distribution is specified, such as for a driving cycle to determine fuel economy, a relevant drag coefficient can be derived by using a weighted road speed. An effective drag coefficient is determined with this approach for a range of cars using the proposed test cycle for the Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicle Test Procedure, WLTP. The wind input acting on the car has been updated for this paper using recent meteorological data and an understanding of the effect of a shear flow on the drag loading obtained from a computational fluid dynamics study. In order to determine the different mean wind velocities acting on the car, a terrain-related wind profile has also been applied to the various phases of the driving cycle. An overall drag coefficient is derived from the work done over the full cycle. This cycle-averaged drag coefficient is shown to be significantly higher than the nominal drag coefficient at a yaw angle of 0°.
