Tungsten dioxide (WO(2)) nanorods were synthesized, which showed excellent catalytic activity for the reduction of triiodide to iodide. The dye-sensitized solar cell (DSC) using WO(2) as a counter electrode (CE) reached a high energy conversion efficiency of 7.25%, which can match the performance of the DSC based on a Pt CE.

Large eddy simulation of turbulent flow is given a natural setting in the DSC framework of computational fluid dynamics. Periodic cellular coarsegraining prevents the nodal flow from piling up and preserves its large patterns. The coarsening operations are consistent with the near-field interaction principle of DSC and therefore uncomplicated at boundaries. Numerical examples validate the appro...

Static analysis of shear deformable plates resting on two-parameter foundations is presented by the method of discrete singular convolution (DSC). The influence of foundation parameters on the deflections of the plate has been investigated. Numerical studies are performed and the DSC results are compared well with other analytical solutions and some numerical results.

Synthesized niobium oxides (Nb(2)O(5) and NbO(2)) were applied for the first time as counter electrodes (CEs) in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). The DSC using NbO(2) CE showed a higher power conversion efficiency of 7.88%, compared with that of the DSC using Pt CE (7.65%).

Dice similarity coefficients (DSC) of single best matching (SBM) and multiple best matching (MBM) prostate bed automated atlas-based segmentation (AABS) contours were compared to an expert panel gold standard. DSC scores improved with MBM in bladder (0.73-0.82) and penile bulb (0.40-0.54), with no improvement in other organs. Categories: Radiation Oncology, Urology, Oncology

Improved methods for the accurate identification of both the presence and severity of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and extent of spread of invasive carcinomas of the cervix (IC) are needed. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) has recently been shown to detect specific changes in the thermal behavior of blood plasma proteins in several diseases. This methodology is being explored...
