Recognized for its potential as a sustainable food source, seaweed farming has become pivotal in tackling future food security concerns, necessitating innovative solutions to achieve optimal, high-yield, and commercially viable production [1]. This work addresses gaps in aquaculture ... En savoir plus

Hemodialysis catheter lumens are routinely locked with heparin solution to reduce the risk of intra-luminal thrombus formation between treatment sessions. The lock volume infused is chosen to be the volume of the lumen, assuming no significant fraction of the heparin dose reaches the ... En savoir plus

Accurate tissue mechanical properties are essential for simulating medical devices that deform skin under suction, such as devices for the treatment of fat, skin wounds, and vascular skin conditions. While suction-based methods exist for estimating these properties, most rely on small ... En savoir plus

The utility company may shut off power in the overhead transmission or distribution lines as a preventative measure against wildfire risks and to ensure public safety. However, the de-energized transmission lines can still carry energy due to induced voltage from the electric- and ... En savoir plus

Electric vehicles (EVs) present a sustainable alternative to internal combustion engine vehicles. However, their widespread adoption remains hindered by limited driving range and insufficient charging infrastructure. Wireless power transfer (WPT) technologies, particularly those enabling ...

Understanding and controlling moisture migration is paramount in the pharmaceutical industry to ensure the quality, safety, and efficacy of drug products across their entire lifecycle, from raw material receipt to final product distribution. Uncontrolled moisture migration can lead to ... En savoir plus

The mechanical effects associated with the collapse of laser-induced cavitation bubbles are central to numerous medical and industrial applications, particularly where precise, localized energy delivery is required. This study examines the interaction of nanosecond-pulsed infrared laser ... En savoir plus

Pleural photodynamic therapy (PDT) represents a promising treatment approach for malignant pleural mesothelioma. However, optimizing treatment efficacy requires accurate prediction of reactive oxygen species ([ROS]rx) distribution, which is challenging due to complex cavity geometries ... En savoir plus

Laser-Heated Pedestal Growth (LHPG) is a crystal growth technique that employs a focused laser beam to melt a source material, creating a molten zone that is precisely controlled to produce high-quality single crystals. This method is particularly advantageous for growing crystals with ... En savoir plus
