Nanomedicine for tuberculosis: Insights from animal models
Patient noncompliance to current tuberculosis (TB) therapy owing to multidrug administration daily leads to treatment failure and emergence of multidrug resistant and extensively drug resistant TB. To avoid the daily dosing, application of nanotechnology is the only viable solution by virtue of sustained release of drugs. Other potential advantages of the system include the possibility of selec...

متن کاملDiscrete element modeling of explosion-induced fracture extension in jointed rock masses
The explosion process of explosives in a borehole applies a very high pressure on its surrounding rock media. This process can initiate and propagate rock fractures, and finally, may result in the rock fragmentation. Rock fragmentation is mainly caused by the propagation of inherent pre-existing fractures of the rock mass and also from the extension of the newly formed cracks within the intact ...
متن کاملActive tectonics in Taiwan: insights from a 3-D viscous finite element model
Taiwan is a young orogenic belt with complex spatial distributions of deformation and earthquakes. We have constructed a three-dimensional finite element model to explore how the interplays between lithospheric structure and plate boundary processes control the distribution of stress and strain rates in the Taiwan region. The model assumes a liberalized power-law rheology and incorporates main ...
متن کاملUncertainty quantification in Discrete Fracture Network models: Stochastic fracture transmissivity
We consider flows in fractured media, described by Discrete Fracture Network (DFN) models. We perform an Uncertainty Quantification analysis, assuming the fractures’ transmissivity coefficients to be random variables. Two probability distributions (log-uniform and log-normal) are used within different laws that express the coefficients in terms of a family of independent stochastic variables; t...
