DESIGN AND OPTIMIZATION OF VALVELESS MICROPUMPS BY USING GENETIC ALGORITHMS APPROACH [PDF]
Journal of Engineering Science and Technology, 2015 This paper presents a design optimization of valveless micropump using Genetic Algorithms (GA). The micropump is designed with a diaphragm, pumping chamber and diffuser/nozzle element functions as inlet and outlet of micropump with outer dimension of (5 ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Based on a previously reported binuclear Cu(II) phenanthroline catalyst, a structurally modified version with enhanced stability for electrochemical reduction of CO2 is developed. The second‐generation system allows for stable operation in an MEA electrolyzer with a Faradaic efficiency of >70% for C2 products at elevated current densities.

Investigation of Exothermic Behaviors of Energetic Particles in Microfluidics Channels
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Scheme and representative frames of delivery, ignition, and combustion process of core@shell Al@CuO energetic material in a microchannel. The electrical discharge occurred at the throat of microchannel leads to the combustion of the energetic reaction, causing the formation of high‐momentum butterfly‐shaped jet at the throat.

Short-term acceptability of a single-size diaphragm among couples in South Africa and Thailand [PDF]
Journal of Family Planning and Reproductive Health Care, 2008 The SILCS diaphragm is a new, reusable, single-size cervical barrier device that is designed to offer the same barrier protection as a standard diaphragm with improved user acceptability.This non-randomised, non-blinded, non-significant risk, multi-site pilot study assessed the short-term acceptability of the SILCS diaphragm among women with no ...

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Inflatable kirigami crawlers are fabricated from heat‐sealable textiles and achieve motion through cyclic pneumatic actuation. Strategically placed kirigami cuts guide asymmetric deformation, doubling contraction compared to traditional pouches and forming scale‐like surfaces.

Skeletal muscle dysfunction is associated with derangements in mitochondrial bioenergetics (but not UCP3) in a rodent model of sepsis [PDF]
, 2015 Muscle dysfunction is a common feature of severe sepsis and multi-organ failure. Recent evidence implicates bioenergetic dysfunction and oxidative damage as important underlying pathophysiological mechanisms.
