A Multiscale Model for Solute Diffusion in Hydrogels
(American Chemical Society, 2019-09-24)
The number of biomedical applications of hydrogels is increasing rapidly on account of their unique physical, structural, and mechanical properties. The utility of hydrogels as drug delivery systems or tissue engineering ...
On a Common Jungck Type Fixed Point Result in Extended Rectangular b-Metric Spaces
(MDPI, 2019-12-27)
In this paper, we present a Jungck type common fixed point result in extended rectangular b-metric spaces. We also give some examples and a known common fixed point theorem in extended b-metric spaces.
Some Formal Results on Positivity, Stability, and Endemic Steady-State Attainability Based on Linear Algebraic Tools for a Class of Epidemic Models with Eventual Incommensurate Delays
(Hindawi, 2019-07-08)
A formal description of typical compartmental epidemic models obtained is presented by splitting the state into an infective substate, or infective compartment, and a noninfective substate, or noninfective compartment. A ...
Enhanced mass sensitivity in novel magnetoelastic resonators geometries for advanced detection systems
(Elsevier, 2019-10-01)
Acoustic wave based sensors have a major impact in the detection of low concentration of biological and chemical agents. Magnetoelastic resonator platforms are particularly interesting due to their low cost and wireless ...
Size Dependence of the Magnetoelastic Properties of Metallic Glasses for Actuation Applications
(MDPI, 2019-10-04)
We present an exhaustive study of the magnetoelastic properties of 24 strips with different rectangular dimensions, cut from a long ribbon of Metglas((R)) 2826MB3. The strips have a length-to-width ratio R = L/w ranging ...
A Feedback Control Loop Optimisation Methodology for Floating Offshore Wind Turbines
(MDPI, 2019-09-10)
Wind turbines usually present several feedback control loops to improve or counteract some specific performance or behaviour of the system. It is common to find these multiple feedback control loops in Floating Offshore ...
A New Approach for the Fabrication of Cytocompatible PLLA-Magnetite Nanoparticle Composite Scaffolds
(MDPI, 2019-09-20)
Magnetic biomimetic scaffolds of poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) and nanoparticles of magnetite (nFe(3)O(4)) are prepared in a wide ratio of compositions by lyophilization for bone regeneration. The magnetic properties, cytotoxicity, ...
3D Cytocompatible Composites of PCL/Magnetite
(MDPI, 2019-11-21)
A study of Magnetite (Fe3O4)as a suitable matrix for the improved adhesion and proliferation of MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblast cells in bone regeneration is presented. Biodegradable and magnetic polycaprolactone (PCL)/magnetite ...
Magnetic field-induced rubber-like behavior in Ni-Mn-Ga particles/polymer composite
(Nature Publishing, 2019-03-05)
Single crystalline Ni-Mn-Ga is well known as a prototype ferromagnetic shape memory alloy (FSMA) exhibiting a giant magnetic field-induced strain (MFIS), up to 12%, due to the magnetically driven twin boundary rearrangement. ...
Recent advances in Swedish and Spanish medical entity recognition in clinical texts using deep neural approaches
(BMC, 2019-12-23)
Background Text mining and natural language processing of clinical text, such as notes from electronic health records, requires specific consideration of the specialized characteristics of these texts. Deep learning methods ...
