Random Aerial Beamforming for Underlay Cognitive Radio with Exposed Secondary Users
(IEEE Vehicular Technology Society, 2016)In this paper, we introduce the exposed secondary users problem in underlay cognitive radio systems, where both the secondary-to-primary and primary-to-secondary channels have a Line-of-Sight (LoS) component. Based on a ... -
Rapid and convenient method for preparing masters for microcontact printing with 1–12 mm features
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2004)Mechanical scribing can be employed to create surfaces with recessed features. Through replica molding elastomeric copies of these scribed surfaces are created that function as stamps for microcontact printing. It is shown ... -
Rapid Separation of Bacteria from Blood - Review and Outlook
(American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE), 2016)The high morbidity and mortality rate of bloodstream infections involving antibiotic‐resistant bacteria necessitate a rapid identification of the infectious organism and its resistance profile. Traditional methods based ... -
Rapid separation of bacteria from blood – Chemical aspects
(Elsevier, 2017)To rapidly diagnose infectious organisms causing blood sepsis, bacteria must be rapidly separated from blood, a very difficult process considering that concentrations of bacteria are many orders of magnitude lower than ... -
Rapid separation of very low concentrations of bacteria from blood
(Elsevier, 2017)A rapid and accurate diagnosis of the species and antibiotic resistance of bacteria in septic blood is vital to increase survival rates of patients with bloodstream infections, particularly those with carbapenem-resistant ... -
Recent Advances in Metal-Organic Frameworks as Anticancer Drug Delivery Systems: A Review
(Bentham, 2021)Background: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), as attractive hybrid crystalline porous materials, are increasingly being investigated in biomedical applications owing to their exceptional properties, including high porosity, ... -
Recent Advances in Nanoparticle-Based Co-Delivery Systems for Cancer Therapy
(MDPI, 2022-08)Cancer therapies have advanced tremendously throughout the last decade, yet multiple factors still hinder the success of the different cancer therapeutics. The traditional therapeutic approach has been proven insufficient ... -
Recent Breakthroughs in Using Quantum Dots for Cancer Imaging and Drug Delivery Purposes
(MDPI, 2023)Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Because each person’s cancer may be unique, diagnosing and treating cancer is challenging. Advances in nanomedicine have made it possible to detect tumors and quickly ... -

Recursive Quad-Tree Block Partitioning for Data Embedding in Images
(Springer, 2020)In this paper, we propose to embed messages in raw images using a recursive block partitioning technique adopted from HEVC video coding technology. This work introduces a quad-tree partitioning solution in which square ... -
Redox-Responsive Drug Delivery Systems: A Chemical Perspective
(MDPI, 2022)With the widespread global impact of cancer on humans and the extensive side effects associated with current cancer treatments, a novel, effective, and safe treatment is needed. Redoxresponsive drug delivery systems (DDSs) ... -
A regression-based framework for estimating the objective quality of HEVC coding units and video frames
(Elsevier, 2015-05)A no-reference objective quality estimation framework is proposed. The framework is suitable for any block-based video codec. In the proposed solution, features are extracted from coding units and summarized to form features ... -
Release of Doxorubicin from Unstabilized and Stabilized Micelles Under the Action of Ultrasound
(American Scientific Publishers, 2007)Polymeric micelles are being investigated as chemotherapy drug delivery carriers using ultrasound as a trigger mechanism. The aim of this paper is to measure the release of Doxorubicin (Dox) from the core of unstabilized ... -
Reliability Centered Maintenance Actions Prioritization Using Fuzzy Inference Systems
(Emeraldinsight, 2016)Reliability centered maintenance (RCM) is a systematic maintenance philosophy/approach used to analyze system's performance in terms of the impact of a potential failure and select the most efficient maintenance tasks along ... -
Remote Labs and Game-Based Learning for Process Control
(Chemical Engineering Education, 2013)Social networking platforms and computer games represent a natural informal learning environment for the current generation of learners in higher education. This paper explores the use of game-based learning in the context ... -
