introduction : use of adipose-derived stem cells (adscs) is a suggested hypothesis to enhance the regeneration of bone defects. this technique is of particular interest since adscs are more easily accessible via a non-invasive harvesting technique compared to bone marrow stem cells (bmscs). this study sought to assess the efficacy of adsc implantation for regeneration of localized mandibular bo...

Electric and hybrid electric vehicles are attractive candidates for sustainable transportation due to its higher efficiency and low emission. The critical choice on the electric motors is its capability of motoring and regenerative braking characteristics. Switched reluctance machines are viable candidate as with proper control and extended constant power range operation replacing the multi-gea...

abstract background b cells play an important role in the immune system due to production of the immunoglobulin and secreting several cytokines. it has been shown that b cells produced successfully in the presence of stem cell factor (scf) and flt3 ligand (flt3l). il2, il7, and il15 cytokines as  -common family have an essential cytokines may support either synergistically or in an additi...

This paper presents a multi-objective mixed-integer nonlinear programming model to design a group layout of a cellular manufacturing system in a dynamic environment, in which the number of cells to be formed is variable. Cell formation (CF) and group layout (GL) are concurrently made in a dynamic environment by the integrated model, which incorporates with an extensive coverage of important man...

cell formation problem mainly address how machines should be grouped and parts be processed in cells. in dynamic environments, product mix and demand change in each period of the planning horizon. incorporating such assumption in the model increases flexibility of the system to meet customer’s requirements. in this model, to ensure the reliability of the system in presence of unreliable machine...

Today, due to the limited supply and rapid consumption of fossil fuels, transitioning towards renewable energy supplies has become more important than ever.. The purpose of this paper is to present a new linear permanent magnet vernier machine structure which is designed to capture wave energy and improve the performance of the prototype vernier machine. By halving the proposed vernier machine,...

The natural beutm size at the interaction point of a storage ring can be increased by operating the machine in a configuration in which the ener,T-dispersion function (7 function) is nonrepetitive in the periodic cells of the machine lattice. This mode of operation has been studied in SPEAR and is being considered in the PEP design. The usual method of beam enlargement in SPEAR has,been to oper...
