We report a molecular nanoassembly able to supply simultaneously, in the same region of space and under the exclusive control of visible light, nitric oxide and singlet oxygen, two species playing a key role in the therapy of cancer; the considerable fluorescence of this nanoaggregate and its reduced size (ca. 40 nm) represent additional advantages that make this photoactive vehicle an appealin...

The optimization problem for a 6DOF satellite equipped with constant specific impulse thrusters is addressed in terms of fuel consumption. The vehicle is assumed to move in Low Earth Orbit: the Keplerian motion around the Earth is perturbed both by the molecular air impingement (aerodynamic drag) and by the gravitational field disturbance known as J2 effect. Further results are achieved by simp...

Unmanned vehicle (UV) displays are often the only information link between operators and vehicles, so their design is critical to mission success. However, there is currently no standardized methodology for operators to subjectively assess a display’s support of mission tasks. This paper proposes a subjective UV display evaluation tool: the Modified Cooper-Harper for Unmanned Vehicle Displays (...

background and aim: motor vehicle accidents are common cause of mortality, morbidity and disability. human factors are principle cause for frequency of motor vehicle accident. in most studies, 52-40% lower limb injuries are trauma from a motorcycle accident. these accidents cause high financial cost and harm for society. materials and methods: in this study, patients with lower limb injuries re...

an elliptical tank cross-section is formulated to explore and optimization method, based on a real-coded genetic algorithm to enhance the roll stability limit of a tank vehicle. a shape genetic algorithm optimization problem is applied to minimize the overturning moment imposed on the vehicle due to c.g. height of the liquid load, and lateral acceleration and cargo load shift . the minimization...
