Abstract: The progress in development of a number of novel products using recombinant DNA technology and cell culturing, plus the demands for high product yield whilst preserving biological activity, require novel approaches ...

A 30 Gb/s integrated receiver array for parallel optical interconnects with four channels have been designed and implemented in a 0.13 mu m CMOS technology. To achieve small area and low power consumption while maintaining ...

Conductive and flexible CuS films with unique hierarchical nanocrystalline branches directly grown on three-dimensional (3D) porous Cu foam were fabricated using an easy and facile solution processing method without a ...

This paper presents two novel automated optimization approaches. The first one proposes a framework to optimize wind turbine blades by integrating multidisciplinary 3D parametric modeling, a physics-based optimization ...

This thesis attempts to develop a framework to optimize wind turbine blades automatically by a multidisciplinary 3D modeling and simulation methods. The original NREL Phase VI wind turbine blade and its experimental ...

Natural biopolymers are highly valued and commonly utilized in tissue engineering to create scaffolds that support living cells. This is due to their exceptional biocompatibility and the fact that their degradation rate ...

In the present work IsoGeometric Analysis (IGA), initially proposed by Hughes et al (2005), is applied to the solution of the boundary integral equation associated with the Neumann-Kelvin (NK) problem and the calculation ...

The process of wound healing is often accompanied by bacterial infection or critical colonization, resulting in protracted inflammation, delayed reepithelization, and production of pungent odors. The malodor produced by ...

The concept of "smart cities" has rapidly emerged as the means by which urban planners can improve the quality of life of citizens, providing better services at lower cost. Typical objectives include the optimization of ...

Geocoding, the process of converting the textual addresses into a pair of coordinates, is a preliminary step in spatial analysis. However, converting addresses into latitude and longitude is not a trivial task as they ...
