Multi-Model Investigation and Adaptive Estimation of the Acoustic Release of a Model Drug From Liposomes
(IEEE, 2019)
This paper researches a suitable mathematical model that can reliably predict the release of a model drug (namely calcein) from biologically targeted liposomal nanocarriers triggered by ultrasound. Using mathematical models, ...
Predicting the Release of Chemotherapeutics From the Core of Polymeric Micelles Using Ultrasound
(IEEE Explore, 2015)
In this paper, the estimation of acoustic drug release from micelles is addressed. The release is measured as a decrease in fluorescence once ultrasound is applied. Initially, a Kalman filter is used to fuse the drug ...
Dynamics of a four-bar mechanism with clearance and springs - Modeling and experimental analysis
(Korean Society of Mechanical Engineers and Springer, 2017)
This paper presents a study of the dynamic behavior of a planar four-bar mechanism with clearance. A spring is added to improve the dynamic response of the mechanism with clearance. Simulations and experimental tests are ...
Identification of the Uncertainty Structure to Estimate the Acoustic Release of Chemotherapeutics From Polymeric Micelles
(IEEE, 2017)
This paper estimates the acoustic drug release from micelles after accurately identifying the underlying statistical noise characteristics in experimental data. The drug release is measured as a change in fluorescence as ...
Exergy analysis of heat exchangers in the copper–chlorine thermochemical cycle to enhance thermal effectiveness and cycle efficiency
(Oxford University Press, 2011)
Most existing nuclear power plants in North America are typically water-cooled and operate at 250–500°C. For this temperature level, the copper–chlorine (Cu–Cl) cycle is one of the most promising cycles that can be integrated ...
Process simulation and analysis of a five-step copper–chlorine thermochemical water decomposition cycle for sustainable hydrogen production
(Wiley, 2014)
A process model of a five-step copper–chlorine (Cu–Cl) cycle is developed and simulated with the Aspen Plus simulation code. Energy and mass balances, stream flows and properties, heat exchanger duties, and shaft work are ...
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, ...
Investigation of an integrated hydrogen production system based on nuclear and renewable energy sources: a new approach for sustainable hydrogen production via copper–chlorine thermochemical cycles
(Wiley, 2011)
Hydrogen production via thermochemical water decomposition is a potential process for direct utilization of nuclear thermal energy to increase efficiency and thereby facilitate energy savings. Thermochemical water splitting ...
Performance of CI Engine Operating with Hydrogen Supplement Cocombustion with Jojoba Methyl Ester
(Elsevier, 2016-06-29)
The present work experimentally investigates the performance of compression ignition (CI) engine which operates on hydrogen and Jojoba methyl ester (JME). The hydrogen is introduced by enriching air-intake manifold with ...
Hydrogen Supplement Co-combustion with Diesel in 2 Compression Ignition Engine
(Elsevier, 2015-10)
The present work investigates experimentally the behavior of compression ignition engine while boosting the combustion by enriching air-intake manifold with hydrogen supplement at the atmospheric condition. The study reports ...
