Modeling of Drug Release Kinetics from Stimuli- Responsive Micelles and Liposomes: A review
(IEEE, 2021)Nanocarriers such as micelles and liposomes were developed to enhance the delivery of therapeutic drugs to tumors. Internal or external stimuli can be applied to achieve spatiotemporal controlled release from these carriers. ... -
Modeling of fiber bridging in fluid flow for well stimulation applications
(Springer, 2020)Accurate acid placement constitutes a major concern in matrix stimulation because the acid tends to penetrate the zones of least resistance while leaving the low-permeability regions of the formation untreated. Degradable ... -
Modeling of Friction Stirring
(2018-11)The last two decades have witnessed significant advances in friction stir welding (FSW). This solid-state welding process was originally used for joining Aluminum alloys before being extended to other metallic and non-metallic ... -
Modeling of In vitro Release Kinetics of Ultrasound-triggered Targeted Liposomes
(2022-04)Ultrasound-triggered, targeted liposomes are a promising drug delivery system as they potentially improve the clinical outcomes of chemotherapy while reducing associated side effects. However, the common drug release models ... -
Modeling of the In Vitro Release Kinetics of Sonosensitive Targeted Liposomes
(MDPI, 2022-12-05)Targeted liposomes triggered by ultrasound are a promising drug delivery system as they potentially improve the clinical outcomes of chemotherapy while reducing associated side effects. In this work, a comprehensive model ... -
Modeling of Tool Wear when Turning of TI-6AL-4V Titanium Alloy
(2013-02)Difficult-to-cut materials are widely used particularly in the aerospace and automotive industries. However, the high cost of processing these materials limits the use of their improved mechanical properties. Tool life is ... -
Modeling of tri-parameter contracts integrating cost, time and risk
(2014-06)Delay is a crucial determinant to the success of a construction project as time has an impact on the financial returns and/or the social benefits for public projects. As cost contingencies are essential to mitigate the ... -
Modeling Smartphone Power

Modeling Strategies of Finite Element Simulation of Reinforced Concrete Beams Strengthened with FRP: A Review
(MDPI, 2021)Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites do not only possess superior mechanical properties, but can also be easy to tailor, install, and maintain. As such, FRPs offer novel and attractive solutions to facilitate strengthening ... -
Modeling the Effects of Chemotherapy and Immunotherapy on Tumor Growth
(American Scientific Publishers, 2021)Mathematical modeling has been used to simulate the interaction of chemotherapy and immunotherapy drugs intervention with the dynamics of tumor cells growth. This work studies the interaction of cells in the immune system, ... -
Modeling the fire response of concrete beams reinforced with GFRP beams
(International Conference on Advanced Composite Materials in Bridges and Structures, 2016)In the last two decades, researchers and engineers studied the possibility of reinforcing slabs and beams with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars instead of the conventionally used steel reinforcement. Such FRP bars have ... -
Modeling Water Flux in Forward Osmosis: Implications for Improved Membrane Design
(2013-05)In efforts to make fresh water available to all people, researchers are dedicated to establish a water treatment method that will reduce the cost of production and impact on the environment. Forward osmosis desalination ... -
