Carbon nanotubes as near infrared laser susceptors

, 2011
The coupling efficiency of carbon nanotubes with near infrared laser radiation at 940nm wavelength was investigated. Nanotubes treated with different post processing methods were irradiated at different laser power intensities as dry samples and ...

Stationary Wavelet Transform denoising in Pulsed Thermography: influence of camera resolution on defect detection [PDF]

, 2015
peer reviewedDenoising filters are widely used in image enhancement. However, they might induce severe blurring effects the lower is the resolution of the original image.

The Schistosoma mansoni hepatic egg granuloma provides a favorable microenvironment for sustained growth of Leishmania donovani.

, 2006
Parasitic co-infections are prevalent in many parts of the world. However, relatively little is known about how an underlying infection may impact on the host's ability to control a newly acquired parasite, especially if both infect the same organ.

Field testing of Schistosoma japonicum DNA vaccines in cattle in China.

, 2002
Vaccines are needed to reduce the zoonotic reservoir of Schistosoma japonicum infection in bovines in China. We have developed two experimental DNA vaccines and have already shown these to be capable of inducing partial protection in water buffalo ...

Quantitative nondestructive testing using Infrared Thermography [PDF]

, 2012
Nondestructive Testing (NDT) is an important tool to increase the service life of critical structures. Infrared Thermography is an attractive NDT modality because it is a non-contact technique, and it has full-field defect imaging capability.

Pulsed Infrared Thermography for Detecting Corrosion

Anticorrosion coatings are often applied to metallic surfaces to provide a buffer between the metal and the environment. Over time, coatings experiencing mechanical stress fail, leading to the onset of undercoating corrosion.
