Remote Thermal Water Leakage Sensor With a Laser Communication System
(IEEE, 2020)
The change in the temperature of an underground water pipeline and its surrounding environment caused by a leakage has been detected by a variety of devices. Among the most popular technologies are infrared cameras, ...
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, ...
Supercapacitor Characterization Using Universal Adaptive Stabilization and Optimization
(IEEE, 2020-07)
This paper presents a simplified supercapacitor model and a universal adaptive stabilization, optimization (UAS+O) based parameter identification technique. Analytic solutions for the description of supercapacitors current, ...
Environmental Footprint and Economics of a Full-Scale 3D-Printed House
(MDPI, 2021)
3D printing, is a newly adopted technique in the construction sector with the aim to improve the economics and alleviate environmental impacts. This study assesses the eco-efficiency of 3D printing compared to conventional ...
Monitoring Bone Density Using Microwave Tomography of Human Legs: A Numerical Feasibility Study
(MDPI, 2021-10-26)
A major cause of bone mass loss worldwide is osteoporosis. X-ray is considered to be the gold-standard technique to diagnose this disease. However, there is currently a need for an alternative modality due to the ionizing ...
Adsorption potentials of iron-based metal–organic framework for methyl orange removal: batch and fixed-bed column studies
(Springer, 2021-01)
In the present work, continuous fixed-bed column and batch studies were undertaken to investigate the efficiency of iron-based metal–organic framework (Fe-BTC) for the removal of methyl orange as a model contaminant from ...
Evaluation of FRP Bars under Compression and Their Performance in RC Columns
(MDPI, 2020)
The behavior of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars under compression is not fully understood yet due to the limited research in this area. However, the long-term durability, weathering resistance, and exceptional mechanical ...
Optimal Operation of Virtual Charging Systems for Plug-In Electric Vehicles
(IEEE, 2022-01)
This paper proposes a novel concept, denoted as Virtual Charging System (VCS), for electric vehicles’ (EVs). In a conventional charging system (CCS) with a competitive environment, the competition between charging stations ...
Ultrasound-responsive Nanocarriers in Cancer Treatment: a review
(American Chemical Society, 2021)
The safe and effective delivery of anticancer agents to diseased tissues is one of the significant challenges in cancer therapy. Conventional anticancer agents are generally cytotoxins with poor pharmacokinetics and ...
