RISEncapsulation of Living Cells in Small (∼100 μm) Alginate Microcapsules by Electrostatic Spraying: A Parametric Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A parametric study was performed to understand the effect of preparation parameters on size, morphology, and encapsulation efficiency (i.e., cells/microcapsule) of alginate microcapsules prepared ...
Analysis of Thermal Stress in Cryosurgery of Kidneys
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this study, the thermal stress distribution in cryosurgery of kidney was investigated using a multiphysics finite element model developed in ANSYS (V8.1). The thermal portion of the model ...
Thermal Therapy in Urologic Systems: A Comparison of Arrhenius and Thermal Isoeffective Dose Models in Predicting Hyperthermic Injury
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The Arrhenius and thermal isoeffective dose (TID) models are the two most commonly used models for predicting hyperthermic injury. The TID model is essentially derived from the Arrhenius model, ...
Kinetic Particle Simulations of Plasma and Dust Environments at Robotic Construction Sites near the Lunar Terminator
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper presents a kinetic particle simulation campaign of plasma and dust environments related to excavation and construction activities at the lunar terminator regions. The electrostatic field caused by the local ...
