This paper illustrates the utility of micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) to study the process of tissue engineered bone growth. A micro-CT facility for imaging and visualising biomaterials in three dimensions (3D) is ...

This paper presents the study about a novel structure hybrid excitation synchronous generator (HESG), which consists of a permanent magnet part as the major component, and an electrically-excited part as the assistant ...

Remotely sensed, angle-based vegetation indices that measure vegetation amounts by the angle between an approximated soil line and a simulated vegetation isoline in the red-near-infrared reflectance space were developed ...

The pathway of hemoglobin degradation by erythrocytic stages of the human malarial parasite Plasmodium falciparum involves initial cleavages of globin chains, catalyzed by several endoproteases, followed by liberation of ...

In this paper an investigation is carried out to see if it is possible to assess the condition of a rotor by clamping it in a DC-current-injection rig and measuring voltages in bars at regular intervals down the axial ...

The corporate annual report has become more than a mandatory financial report for public companies, with many companies also using it as an important marketing communication tool. As corporate social responsibility (CSR) ...

The small punch (SP) test is a novel technique that uses a relatively small volume of material, to enable a measure of load versus deflection to determine the mechanical behaviour of the alloy. This study aims to investigate ...

Typically the grating problem is formulated for the TE and TM polarizations, respectively, by using the electric and magnetic fields aligned with the grating wall and perpendicular to the plane of incidence and this leads ...

In e-business systems, the business environment and processes not only drive the identification of system needs, but also are in turn fundamentally changed by the introduction or evolution of a system. This means that ...
