An optimization system of extrusion process parameters was designed to rapidly extrude a microtube with target diameter and wall thickness for forming medical balloons personalized size characteristics. Firstly, the double convected pom-pom (DCPP) model selected numerical simulation tube process, different parameter combinations their corresponding results were extracted based on orthogonal exp...

The combination of nanomaterials with electrode materials has opened new horizons in electroanalytical chemistry, and in electrochemistry in general. Over the past two decades we have witnessed an enormous activity aimed at designing new electrochemical devices based on nanoparticles, nanotubes or nanowires, and towards the use of electrochemical routes--particularly template-assisted electrode...

Multiangle, fiber-based, spectral-domain Doppler optical coherence tomography with a phase-resolved algorithm is presented to measure three components of an arbitrary velocity vector. A beam divider that divides a probe beam to have five independent viewpoints and path length delays was designed. The divider was inserted into the sampling arm of a Doppler optical coherence tomography system bet...

Though metastasis is considered an inefficient process, over 90% of cancer related deaths are attributed to the formation of secondary tumors. Thus, eliminating circulating cancer cells could lead to improved patient survival. This study was aimed at exploiting the interactions of cancer cells with selectins under flow to selectively kill captured colon cancer cells. Microtubes functionalized w...
