Aqueous hydrocarbon systems: Experimental measurements and quantitative structure-property relationship modeling
(2007-05)
Scope and Method of Study: The experimental objectives of this work were to (a) evaluate existing mutual hydrocarbon-water liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) data, and (b) develop an experimental apparatus capable of measuring ...
Mass transfer in porous tissue engineering scaffolds
(2008-07)
Scope and Method of Study: This study evaluated the effects of both local and global scale mass transport phenomena through degradable porous polymer matrices typically used in tissue engineering. Analytical, computational ...
Generalized rule antecedent structure for TSK type of dynamic models: Structure identification and parameter estimation
(2009-12)
Scope and Method of Study: A novel rule antecedent structure is proposed to generalize TSK type of dynamic fuzzy models to deal with the problem of curse of dimensionality in conventional TSK fuzzy models. The proposed ...
Approaching sustainability in engineering design with multiple criteria decision analysis
(2005-12)
Scope and Method of Study: This research aimed to the establishment of a general methodological framework, via which the "fuzzy"� and "debatable"� goal of sustainability can be practically achieved in engineering design. ...
Development, characterization and evaluation of NTPDase-modified polymer for inhibiting platelet deposition
(2009-05)
The lack of haemocompatibility in biomaterials is a major concern in blood contacting devices. It causes serious complications such as platelet adhesion and aggregation, thrombosis and shedding of emboli, the latter which ...
Adsorption of pure and multi-component gases of importance to enhanced coalbed methane recovery: Measurements and simplified local density modeling
(2005-07)
Scope and Method of Study:
