LOCAL FLUID STRESS AND NUTRIENT TRANSPORT EFFECTS VIA SIMULATIONS OF PERFUSION THROUGH BONE TISSUE ENGINEERING SCAFFOLDS
(2010)
Lattice Boltzmann Method and Lagrangian Scalar Tracking simulations were performed in order to characterize the mechanical and chemical microenvironments within two different types of bone tissue engineering polymer ...
Fischer-Tropsch synthesis on carbon nanotube-supported catalysts in water-in-oil emulsion
(2013-12-04)
Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) is an important gas-to-liquids technology in the modern energy industry. The current trend is to carry it out in liquid reaction media in order to take advantage of good heat transfer, high ...
VIRAL ECOGENOMICS - MOLECULAR ANALYSIS OF A COSTA RICAN PLANT RNA VIRAL COMMUNITY
(2009)
RNA virus metagenome data characterization provides an unbiased picture of RNA viruses in natural environment. To test the hypothesis that plant viral infections are relatively specific for the viral-host interaction and ...
Surface investigations of the mechanism of single walled carbon nanotube growth by carbon monoxide disproportionation over a cobalt-molybdenum catalyst.
(2003)
To examine the validity of this hypothesis different catalyst formulations and reaction conditions have been used. These series of tests included the doping of the Co Mo catalyst with sodium, the substitution of molybdenum ...
Mixing rules and unlike interaction parameter correlations for characterization parameters in a three-parameter corresponding-states thermodynamic properties correlation.
(1981)
The conformal solution method is used as the basis for developing mixing rules for the characteristic parameters appearing in a three-parameter, corresponding-states correlation of thermodynamic properties. A logical ...
Synthesis of polymer nanostructures via the use of surfactant surface aggregates as templates.
(2007)
The subject of this work is the synthesis of polymer nanostructures via the use of surfactant surface aggregates as templates, also termed Template Assisted Admicellar Polymerization (TAAP). The first chapter reviews some ...
MODIFICATION OF THE SMALL INTESTINAL SUBMUCOSA USING PLGA NANOPARTICLES FOR ENHANCED TISSUE REGENERATION: FROM IN VITRO TO IN VIVO MODELS
(2009)
Small intestinal submucosa (SIS) derived from porcine small intestine has been intensively studied for its capacity in repairing and regenerating wounded and dysfunctional tissues. However, SIS suffers from a large spectrum ...
NEW METHODS AND NEW PARADIGM TO DESIGN SENSOR NETWORKS FOR PROCESS PLANTS
(2009)
Due to economic reason, not every process variable can be measured by a sensor. The problem of optimum selection of sensor location is referred to as sensor network design problem (SNDP).
Experimental and computational analysis of the aerodynamics of melt blowing dies.
(2004)
An experimental and computational study of melt blowing jets and processes was done. Computational studies were done on three types of melt blowing jets: conventional annular, tapered annular and swirling. Conventional ...
Kinetics and Solvent Effects on Supported Metal Catalysts for Biomass Conversion
(2018)
Energy conversion using renewable biomass has significant environmental impact. To acquire high value products using preliminary processed biomass, considerable amount of upgrading reactions has been conducted in liquid-phase ...
