Mechanical System Approaches Limit of Technical Feasibility

Synergy of Chemical and Mechanical Approaches to Limit Bacterial Fouling

Clinically, biofilm-associated infections commonly form on intravascular catheters and other hydrogel surfaces. For example, annually in the United States, biofilms formed on intravascular catheters are linked to 250,000 blood stream infections with an associated mortality rate of 1225%. To inactivate microbes, antibacterial agents have been released from polymer catheters. However, the overuse...

The technical feasibility of cryonics.

Cryonic suspension is a method of stabilizing the condition of someone who is terminally ill so that they can be transported to the medical care facilities that will be available in the late 21st or 22nd century. There is little dispute that the condition of a person stored at the temperature of liquid nitrogen is stable, but the process of freezing inflicts a level of damage which cannot be re...

Testing Technical Feasibility in CPS Development Projects

Cyber-physical systems (CPSs) are service systems that connect a product’s physical and computational elements through telecommunication networks. Typically, the processes in CPSs are executed on this physical and computational infrastructure. As the developing of new CPS is costly, testing and validating a CPS’s design at an early stage of development is desirable in order to avoid potential b...
