Cardiac sodium channels are integral membrane proteins whose structure is not known at atomic level yet and their molecular kinetics is still being studied through mathematical modeling. This study has focused on adapting an existing model of cardiac Na channel to analyze molecular kinetics of channels at 9-37°C. Irvine et al developed a Markov model for Na channel using Neuronal Network Model ...

This study is limited to study of buckling analysis of a sandwich cylindrical shell with functionally graded face sheets and homogenous core. High-order sandwich plate theory is improved by considering the in-plane stresses of the core that usually are ignored in the analysis of sandwich structures. Assume that all properties of the face sheets and the core are temperature dependent. Strain com...

Alkali activated binders are a new class of binding material with comparable or enhanced performance to Portland cement. These binding materials are obtained by a chemical reaction between an alumino-silicate material and a highly alkaline solution. In most cases, the setting-hardening process of this binder is performed at high curing temperatures. In this paper, alkali activated mortars based...

The soldering of small, delicate electronic devices by means of a blade thermode (a small, thin, rectangular or -shaped soldering iron) requires the lower side of the thermode to have a uniform temperature distribution. This is not easily obtained: during start-up the corners tend to be too hot, and too cold in the stationary phase. In the present study the various aspects that determine the he...

November in Goshen on its high hilltop is blustery and cold and raw. It may have its moments when Indian summer slips back for a last regretful visit, and a murky blue haze lies in the great hollow to the east, but the 20th of that month in 1769, was a day of cold skies with no sun to glint on the green ripples of Marshapogge, now Tyler Pond. There was a hint of snow in the air, and Ivy Mountai...

Here, the development of an adhesive is reported - generated via free radical polymerization - which can be degraded upon thermal impact within minutes. The degradation is based on a stimuli responsive moiety (SRM) that is incorporated into the network. The selected SRM is a hetero Diels-Alder (HDA) moiety that features three key properties. First, the adhesive can be degraded at relatively low...

The Monte Carlo method for photon transport is often used to predict the volumetric heating that an optical source will induce inside a tissue or material. This method relies on constant (with respect to temperature) optical properties, specifically the coefficients of scattering and absorption. In reality, optical coefficients are typically temperature-dependent, leading to error in simulation...
