In-Vitro Degradation of Hollow Silica Reinforced Magnesium Syntactic Foams in Different Simulated Body Fluids for Biomedical Applications
(MDPI, 2020)
This article reports the mechanical and biocorrosion behaviour of hollow silica nanosphere (SiO₂) reinforced (0.5–2 vol.%) magnesium (Mg) syntactic foams. Room temperature tensile properties’ characterization suggests that ...
Critical resolved shear stress for slip and twin nucleation in single crystalline FeNiCoCrMn high entropy alloy
(Elsevier, 2017)
High entropy alloys is an emerging class of materials with superior mechanical properties down to cryogenic temperatures. At 77K, and unlike traditional metallic alloys, an increase in strength, strain hardening rate, and ...
The role of cavitation in acoustically activated drug delivery
(Elsevier Science Direct, 2005)
Pluronic P105 micelles are potential candidates as chemotherapy drug delivery vehicles using ultrasonic stimulation as a release trigger. Acoustic power has been previously shown to release two anthracycline agents from ...
Behavioral Modeling of GaN Doherty Power Amplifiers Using Memoryless Polar Domain Functions and Deep Neural Networks
(IEEE, 2020)
In this paper, novel Doherty Power Amplifier (DPA) models are presented. The motivation behind the proposed models is to accurately predict static nonlinearities in the compression regions of the carrier and peaking ...
Using Linear Regression and Back Propagation Neural Networks to Predict Performance of Soiled PV Modules
(Elsevier, 2019)
This paper presents a study on neural network-based modeling techniques and sensor data to estimate the power output of photovoltaic systems under soiling conditions. Predicting maximum power output under soiling conditions ...
A Comprehensive Method of Ion Exchange Resins Regeneration and Its Optimization for Water Treatment
(IntechOpen, 2020-08)
Ion exchange membranes, specifically resin technology, lie at the heart of electrolytically conductive systems used in the treatment of wastewater. This chapter deals with ion exchange deionization and the effect of resin ...
The flexural behavior of bolting and bonding Aluminum Alloy plates to RC beams
(Elsevier, 2019)
The aim of this experimental investigation is to study the effect of using externally bonded and bolted Aluminum Alloy (AA) plates on the strength, stiffness, ductility and failure modes of Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams. ...
Formulation of heat conduction and thermal conductivity of metals
(De Gruyter, 2019)
The well-known low-pressure monatomic gas thermal conductivity expression is based on the Maxwell-Boltzmann velocity distribution and involves the mean particle velocity, the gas heat capacity at constant volume and the ...
What We Have Learned about Terrorism since 9/11
(American Economic Association, 2019)
This overview examines critically the post-9/11 empirical literature on terrorism. Major contributions by both economists and political scientists are included. We focus on five main themes: the changing nature of terrorism, ...
Critical Review of the Evolution of Project Delivery Methods in the Construction Industry
(MDPI, 2021)
Selecting the appropriate project delivery method (PDM) is a very significant managerial decision that impacts the success of construction projects. This paper provides a critical review of related literature on the evolution ...
