Introduction: Discovering therapeutic drugs that target renal disease is a challenge due to the adverse effects not detected until late in drug development [1]. Preclinical drug studies in animals and static human cell cultures fail to characterize <em>in vivo</em> renal ... Read More
Electrochemical systems are devices or processes in which an ionic conductor mediates the interconversion of chemical and electrical energy. This paper presents a model to simulate the electroplating of copper in a microcavity typically found in the plating of copper onto circuit ... Read More
Introduction Oversized microbubbles traveling through confining conduits can create flow blockages when the lubrication layer surrounding them drains, requiring undesirable increases in pressure gradient for discharging channel contents. In increasingly demanding industrial ... Read More
Microencapsulation-based drug delivery has paved the way for the next generation of drug carrier systems that can deliver a therapeutic agent in a programmable fashion. In this method, therapeutic agent is encapsulated within a microparticle and delivered through hypodermic needles to ... Read More
Flexible and highly sensitive piezoresistive nanomaterial systems have been demonstrated to possess considerable potential for monitoring structural integrity and human physiological performance. The piezoresistivity of the nanomaterial systems mainly stem from conductive/semi-conductive ... Read More
This paper presents multiphysics modeling of coupled thermal-electrical behavior across the composite joints formed by highly anisotropic conductivity materials such as carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) under lightning strike conditions and demonstrates the driving physics behind ...

A classic problem in process engineering is the estimation of the excess friction loss that occurs as a fluid passes through a sudden expansion. At elevated Reynolds numbers (Re) there are simple correlations that provide reasonable estimates of the pressure drop across an expansion. ... Read More
Modern adiabatic calorimeters are designed to keep thermal inertia as low as possible so that temperature-dependent reaction rates and heats of reaction can be accurately extracted from the thermocouple data. Published models of this type of equipment are generally zero dimensional (0D) ... Read More
Meshless methods are relative newcomers to the field of computational methods; the term “meshless method” refers to the class of numerical techniques that have the following advantages: (1) domain and boundary mesh discretization is not required; (2) domain integration is not required; ...

Porous scaffolds of natural and synthetic polymers and ceramics, fabricated by electrospinning, salt leaching and 3D printing, are widely used for tissue engineering and regeneration (<em>1</em>). The geometric characteristics of a porous scaffold, such as pore size and ... Read More
