A Multi-Objective Allocation Approach for Power Quality Monitoring Devices
(IEEE Xplore Digital Library, 2019)
With the inception of smart grids and the increased integration of renewable resources, the continuous monitoring of power systems becomes increasingly important to monitor power quality (PQ) and speed up the localization ...
INSPECT: A graphical user interface software package for IDARC-2D
(Elsevier, 2016)
Modern day Performance-Based Earthquake Engineering (PBEE) pivots about nonlinear analysis and its feasibility. IDARC-2D is a widely used and accepted software for nonlinear analysis; it possesses many attractive features ...
A Subspace Identification Technique for Real Time Stability Assessment of Droop Based Microgrids
(IEEE, 2021-11)
Real time detection of the microgrid stability is crucial for determining and adjusting the power-sharing droop controllers' gains to maintain a sufficient stability margin. Maintaining minimum relative stability should ...
Internet of things based multi-sensor patient fall detection system
(National Center for Biotechnology Information, 2019)
Accidental falls of patients cannot be completely prevented. However, timely fall detection can help prevent further complications such as blood loss and unconsciousness. In this study, the authors present a cost-effective ...
Over-Pressure Suppresses Ultrasonic-Induced Drug Uptake
(Elseviser, 2008)
Ultrasound (US) is used to enhance and target delivery of drugs and genes to cancer tissues. The present study further examines the role of acoustic cavitation in US-induced permeabilization of cell membranes and subsequent ...
Suppressing the Capacitor Voltage Fluctuations in Low Frequency Operation of Modular Multilevel Converters
(IEEE, 2020)
Lowfrequency operation in the modular multilevel converters (MMCs) is enabled by applying a reference common mode voltage and circulating currents at a frequency much higher than the desired output frequency. The frequency ...
Numerical Analysis of Film Cooling Shield Formed by Confined Jet Discharging on a Flat Plate
(International Information and Engineering Technology Association, 2019)
The effects of centrifugal force and thermal conductivity on the effectiveness of a film cooling shield are investigated in this study. A confined jet with 90 degree angle is used, to inject cooling fluid into hot steam, ...
The Comet Assay to Determine the Mode of Cell Death for the Ultrasonic Delivery of Doxorubicin to Human Leukemia (HL-60 Cells) from Pluronic P105 Micelles
(Adenine Press, 2005)
This notes examines the mode of cell death of HL-60 cells exposed to 70 kHz and 1.3 W/cm2 ultrasound in the presence of 1% Pluronic P105 and 1.67 μg/ml doxorubicin (Dox). The cells were ultrasonicated for 30, 60, and 120 ...
Improving the Efficacy of Anticancer Drugs via Encapsulation and Acoustic Release
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2018)
Conventional chemotherapeutics lack the specificity and controllability, thus may poison healthy cells while attempting to kill cancerous ones. Newly developed nano-drug delivery systems have shown promise in delivering ...
Ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvents for the recovery of phenolic compounds: effect of ionic liquids structure and process parameters
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021)
Water pollution is a severe and challenging issue threatening the sustainable development of human civilization. Besides other pollutants, waste fluid streams contain phenolic compounds. These have an adverse effect on the ...
