A new Coupler Critical Dimensions (CCD) approach to define mobility criteria (crank, rocker conditions,
or existence) for linkage mechanisms has been presented in this paper. The concept is critical to design
and analyze ...
Three-dimensional CFD-DEM-IBM simulations of sand production in a sandstone formation, using periodic
boundaries, were performed using 10000 frictional elastic spheres bonded together and compressed at 1 MPa of
overburden ...
Increased level of CD44 protein in serum is observed in several cancers and is associated with tumor burden and metastasis. Current clinically used detection methods of this protein are time-consuming and use labeled ...
blation (TA) is known as an alternative therapy to surgery to treat tumors. However, TA-based therapy requires advanced approaches in order to prevent causing damage to healthy tissue around the tumor and selectively target ...
Do handwriting skills transfer when a child writes in two different scripts, such as the Latin and Cyrillic alphabets? Are our measures of handwriting skills intrinsically bound to one alphabet or will a child who faces ...
This study aimed to conduct a systems engineering investigation for the integration of reverse vending machines (RVM) into the waste management system of Kazakhstan. By conducting a wide-scale survey among the general ...
The drug development process can greatly benefit from liver-on-a-chip platforms aiming to recapitulate the physiology, mechanisms, and functionalities of liver cells in an in vitro environ-ment. The liver is the most ...

The numerical investigation of the interpenetrating flow dynamics of a gas injected into
a homogeneous porous media saturated with liquid is presented. The analysis is undertaken as a function of the inlet velocity, ...
Thermal ablation is achieved by delivering heat directly to tissue through a minimally
invasive applicator. The therapy requires a temperature control between 50–100 ◦C since the mortality of the tumor is directly connected ...
Efficient waste management, including proper utilization of municipal solid waste (MSW), is imperative for a sustainable future. Among several management options, pyrolysis and combustion of MSW has regained interest because ...
