Android mobile app for real-time bilateral Arabic sign language translation using leap motion controller
(IEEE, 2017)
This paper introduces an android mobile App for real-time bilateral Arabic sign language translation. The system is designed to operate on isolated sign language words. The mobile App has four main components; sign language ...
Non-Viral Gene Transfection with Ultrasound: Is 100% Transfection Possible?
(American Scientific Publishers, 2012)
Ultrasound has been used as a modality to enhance the transfection of cells, purportedly via entry of genetic material through defects in the cell membrane produced by bubble cavitation events. A mathematical model was ...
Communication Network for Ultrasonic Acoustic Water Leakage Detectors
(IEEE, 2020-02-10)
Water leaks in the distribution network produce significant losses and cause serious economic inconvenience especially in areas with water shortage. In this paper, the operational aspects of the most popular offline detection ...
Synthesis of Metal-Organic Framework from Iron Nitrate and 2,6-Naphthalenedicarboxylic Acid and Its Application as Drug Carrier
(American Scientific Publishers, 2018)
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are highly crystalline porous organic–inorganic materials that are comprised of metal salts and organic linkers. The common synthetic methodologies of MOFs include: solvothermal, microwave-assisted, ...
An Integrated Building Information Model (iBIM) for Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures
(International Conference on Computing in Civil and Building Engineering (ICCCBE), 2018-06)
The architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry involve many disciplines during the life cycle of the building from its conception to its demolition. The civil engineering discipline has many domains related ...
Effect of pH, ultrasound frequency and power density on the release of calcein from stealth liposomes
(De Gruyter, 2016)
The use of liposomes as carriers for chemotherapeutic agents in combination with ultrasound as a stimulus to control the time and space of the drug release is a promising approach for cancer treatment, as it can reduce the ...
Drug Delivery Systems Based on Polymeric Micelles and Ultrasound: A Review
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2016)
Anti-neoplastic drugs used for cancer treatment often produce damage to healthy cells, leading to severe side effects in patients undergoing chemotherapy. The encapsulation of these agents in nanoparticles reduces the ...
Graphene-based drug delivery systems
(Elsevier, 2019)
Drug delivery is one of the prominent biomedical applications of graphene nanomaterials in the current scenario. The rapid growth in the graphene-based drug delivery systems showed the potential of this nanomaterial in the ...
Strengthening of reinforced concrete beams in flexure with side bonded CFRP laminates
(Conference on Durability of Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) Composites for Construction and Rehabilitation of Structures (CDCC 2017), 2017-07)
Carbon fiber reinforcement polymer CFRP laminates are widely used nowadays in civil engineering applications to externally strengthen structural concrete elements against deficiencies in flexure and shear. These deficiencies ...
Kinetics and thermodynamics of acoustic release of doxorubicin from non-stabilized polymeric micelles
(Elsevier, 2010)
This paper studies the thermodynamic characteristics of ultrasound-activated release of Doxorubicin (Dox) from micelles. The release and re-encapsulation of Dox into Pluronic® P105 micelles was measured by recording the ...
