Mining exploitation leads to slow or rapid ground subsidence resulting from deformation until the collapse of underground post-mining voids following excavation activities. Satellite SAR interferometry capabilities for evaluation movements allows monitoring intensive surface mine and can provide new knowledge about risks in mining industry. This work integrates both conventional advanced Differ...

Microarray gene expressions provide an insight into genomic biomarkers that aid in identifying cancerous cells and normal cells. In this study, functionally related genes are identified by partitioning gene data. Clustering is an unsupervised learning technique that partition gene data into groups based on the similarity between their expression profiles. This identifies functionally related ge...

To achieve a successful and effective operation, the transition from open pit to underground mining requires accurate planning analysis. Numerical modeling utilizing programs like FLAC3D has been an important tool for simulating analyzing complicated geomechanical behavior connected with this shift in recent years. The use of develop model switch coal soft rocks using room pillar method is expl...

This paper aimed to analyze stress distribution in human zygomatic pillar during masseter muscle contraction using three-dimensional finite element analysis. A three-dimensional model and hemi facial skull were produced based on CT-scan data. An adult male skull with structural anatomy integrity was used as model. Muscles forces were applied at origin of elevator muscles and supports was applie...

Particle sorting methods in microfluidic platforms are gaining momentum for various biomedical applications. Bioparticles are found in different shapes and sizes. However, conventional separation techniques are mainly designed for separation of spherical particles. Thus, there is a need to develop new methods for effective separation of spherical and non-spherical bioparticles for various appli...

An advantage of separation platforms based on deterministic micro- and nano-fabrications, relative to traditional systems based on packed beds of particles, is the exquisite control of all morphological parameters. For example, with planar platforms based on lithographically-prepared pillar arrays, the size, shape, height, geometric arrangement, and inter pillar gaps can be independently adjust...

Cochlear hair cells (HCs) are mechanosensory receptors that transduce sound into electrical signals. HC damage in nonmammalian vertebrates induces surrounding supporting cells (SCs) to divide, transdifferentiate and replace lost HCs; however, such spontaneous HC regeneration does not occur in the mammalian cochlea. Here, we acutely ablate the retinoblastoma protein (Rb), a crucial cell cycle re...
