We revisit the derivation of a nonlocal problem modelling temperature distribution due to power generation using thermoelectric effect. The problem has nonlocal coefficients in reaction and convection terms rather than diffusion term, which makes the problem more interesting. In this paper, we prove that the nonlocal problem has a unique decreasing solution when electric current induced by the thermoelectric effect is small enough.

Because charge, current, resistance, and voltage are understood based on the perspective of electricity, they can describe various electrical phenomena well, but they cannot explain their origins. Therefore, this article attempts to propose a new understanding of these phenomena from the perspective of mechanics to obtain a feasible way of explaining their origin and to solve problems that cannot be explained from the perspective of electricity. Specifically, this paper attempts to explain the origin of electric charge to obtain a new understanding of the origin of current and to obtain a new understanding of voltage and resistance by explaining the origin of current. Finally, from the perspective of mechanics, the origin of charge can be understood as a manifestation of electron momentum, the origin of current can be understood as a momentum flow, the origin of resistance can be understood as a momentum resistance, and the origin of voltage can be understood as a potential pressure (potential difference) of electron orbital potential. This new understanding of the origin of current from a mechanical perspective can provide a new theoretical explanation for high-temperature superconductivity.

Abstract In this research, we investigate the thermoelectric effects of general materials. The results of this showed that an electromotive force was generated under a temperature difference between two points in materials. As no material has infinite electric resistance, an electromotive force is expected to be generated under a temperature difference in all materials. In conclusion, the thermoelectric effect generates an electromotive force. This electromotive force causes an electric current to flow, thereby generating a magnetic field.This magnetic field generates the Earth's magnetic field, triboelectricity, sunspots, and kinetic energy of celestial bodies.This temperature differential electromotive force also generates lightning and creates an ionosphere that reflects radio waves.

SummarySeveral antibody fractions and sera from patients with rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus and chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura were examined for their ability to bind to normal platelets using immunofluorescent staining techniques. Platelet aggregometry was used to study the activating capacity of the samples.Both C1q, C1s, C1 inactivator, fibrinogen, factor VIII-related antigen, alpha1-acid glycoprotein, alpha1-antitrypsin, beta2-micro- globulin and isoantigens A and B, as well as fibronectin and plasminogen were found on the platelet surface. Only antibodies to C1q, C1s and beta2-microglobulin were able to induce platelet aggregation. Sera containing immune complexes or platelet autoantibodies revealed positive surface staining for IgG, or for IgG and IgM. These sera also induced aggregation of platelets. Sera not containing immune complexes or autoantibodies gave negative staining and aggregation results. Thus, only some of the ligand receptor interactions were able to induce platelet aggregation.

SummaryAn experiment designed to assess the components of variability of a number of measures of platelet aggregability showed that the ADP ED50 (the estimated dose of adenosine diphosphate at which primary aggregation occurs at half its maximum velocity) had the least method error of any of the parameters measured, but that none had a very high between-person component of variability. A simultaneous comparison of a syringe technique and a free-flowing technique for venepuncture revealed no differential effects on the aggregation parameters measured. An enforced increase in the stirring speed in the aggregometer led to an experiment which showed that such a change did not apparently affect the ED50s.
