A Novel Method for Electrospinning Nanofibrous 3-D Structures

Comparing Two Electrospinning Methods in Producing Polyacrylonitrile Nanofibrous Tubular Structures with Enhanced Properties

Polyacrylonitrile nanofibrous tubular structures were produced through typical and opposite charge electrospinning methods and the effect of the method as well as the two key electrospinning parameters, namely concentration of the electrospinning polymer solution and rotational speed of mandrel collector on properties of such tubular structures were studied. The smples were characterized by...

Electrospinning Technology for Nanofibrous Scaffolds in Tissue Engineering

Application of Boundary Element Method to 3 D Submerged Structures With Open Ends (RESEARCH NOTE)

This paper presents a three dimensional application of direct Boundary-Element Method (BEM) for computing interaction of sinusoidal waves with a large submerged open bottom structure near the floor with finite depth. The wave diffraction problem is formulated within the framework of linearized potential theory and solved numerically with direct BEM. A computer program based on BEM is developed ...

Preparation and characterization of polysaccharides/PVA blend nanofibrous membranes by electrospinning method.

A series of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), PVA/chitosan (CS) and PVA/cyanobacterial extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) blended nanofibrous membranes were produced by electrospinning using a microfiltration poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) basal membrane, for potential applications in water filtration. Nanofibres were obtained from solutions of 20% (w/w) PVA with 1% (w/w) CS or EPS, using a weig...
