Nerve regeneration conditioned fluid is secreted by nerve stumps inside a nerve regeneration chamber. A better understanding of the proteinogram of nerve regeneration conditioned fluid can provide evidence for studying the role of the microenvironment in peripheral nerve regeneration. In this study, we used cylindrical silicone tubes as the nerve regeneration chamber model for the repair of inj...

We report here a simple yet robust transient compartmentalization system for microfluidic platforms. Cylindrical microfilaments made of commercially available fishing lines are embedded in a microfluidic chamber and employed as removable walls, dividing the chamber into several compartments. These partitions allow tight sealing for hours, and can be removed at any time by longitudinal sliding w...

In this note we present a mathematical framework for a rigorous approach to a common track fit for trackers located in the inner region of the ZEUS detector. The approach makes use of the Kalman filter and offers a rigorous treatment of magnetic field inhomogeneity, multiple scattering and energy loss. We describe mathematical details of the implementation of the Kalman filter technique with a ...

reactivity controlled compression ignition (rcci) is a novel combustion concept which uses port fuel injection (pfi) of a low reactivity fuel and direct injection (di) of a high reactivity fuel with optimum multiple injection to provide a stratified mixture inside the combustion chamber. piston bowl design has a considerable effect on engine’s pollutant emissions specially unburned hydrocarbons...

This work describes an inviscid solution for a cyclonic flowfield evolving in hemispherical chamber configuration. In this context, vigorously swirling motion is triggered by gaseous stream that introduced tangentially to the inner circumference of chamber's equatorial plane. The resulting updraft spirals around while sweeping wall, reverses direction approaching headend, and then tunnels itsel...

This study aims to investigate the formability of AA2198-T3 Al-Li alloy in hydro-mechanical deep drawing (HMDD), through experimentation and finite element simulation. The effects most critical factors were studied: die cavity pressure forming temperature; temperature is selected at 298K 423K. Gurson?Tvergaard?Needleman model (GTN model) was employed analyze predict fracture hydroforming a cyli...

The dynamic flow-through chamber system has been developed in response to a need to measure emissions of nitrogen, sulphur, and carbon compounds for a variety of field applications. The cylindrical chamber system is constructed of chemically inert materials and internally lined with 5mil thick transparent fluorinated ethylene polypropylene (FEP) Teflon to reduce chemical reactions and build up ...
