In this paper we present the results of utilizing scientific computing methodologies to address an engineering problem from nano technologies. In nano and micro­scale, the calculation could only be done with some particle based representation method. One of them is Molecular Dynamics (MD) method. In the paper we describe the construction of the Molecular Dynamics Method and ...

The historical notion regarding the inability of gold to catalyze reactions has been discarded in view of recent studies, which have clearly demonstrated the high catalytic efficiency of supported nano-gold catalysts. Although nano-Au catalysts are known to catalyze a variety of reactions, the major focus has been on CO oxidation catalysis. In this work we focus on the important aspects related...

Development of nano and biotechnologies encouraged us to develop a concept of automated building, which will significantly reduce the many negative impacts of traditional construction on the environment. The paper describes the concept of Nanoto meter-scale building, a new way of building, which unfolds from the nano into the meter range. The concept is based on bionanorobots, producing buildin...

ISSN 2250 – 1088 | © 2011 Bonfring Abstract--This paper presents a high-Q MWCNT (Multi Wall Carbon Nano-Tube) network based pulse-shaped on-chip embedded nano-inductor for power electronic circuits. This high-Q inductor is fabricated using a composite of MWCNT (multi Wall Carbon Nano Tube) network and Fe in semiconductor processing environment. A layer of nano composite film (Cu/CoFe2o4) is pat...

Understanding the interactions between natural organic matter (NOM) and zero-valent iron nanoparticles (nano-Fe0) and magnetite nanoparticles (nano-Fe3O4) is essential for evaluating their performance in pollutant remediation, as well as determining their fate and transport in the environment. Batch experiments were performed to investigate the sorption/desorption behaviors of humic acid (HA) o...

abstract: application of atomic force microscope as a manipulator for pushing-based positioning of nano-particles has been of considerable interest during recent years. however a detailed modeling of the interaction forces and control on the afm tip is important for prosperous manipulation control, a reliable control of the afm tip position during the afm-based manipulation process is a main is...

Tuning of the time course and strength of inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmitter release is fundamental for the precise operation of cortical network activity and is controlled by Ca(2+) influx into presynaptic terminals through the high voltage-activated P/Q-type Ca(2+) (Cav2.1) channels. Proper channel-mediated Ca(2+)-signaling critically depends on the topographical arrangement of the ch...

Genetic polymorphism was studied among thirty Indian mustard genotypes using 20 ISSR primers. This study revealed 156 amplified bands with an average of 7.8 bands per primer out of which 115 were polymorphic. Size of amplified fragments ranged from 100 bp to 1500 bp and number varied from 4 to 14. ISSR data were used to compute genetic similarities based on Jaccrad’s similarity coefficient, it ...

CONTEXT Many synthetic bone materials have been introduced for repairing bone defects. AIM The aim of this study is to comparatively evaluate the efficacy of nano-hydroxyapatite (HA) and nano-bioglass bone materials with their traditional micro counterparts in repairing bone defects. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this prospective animal study, four healthy dogs were included. First to fourth pre...

The most stringer barrier for the delivery of neurotherapeutics in-vivo is presented by the blood-brain barrier which limits the access of neurotherapeutics to the CNS effectively. Intranasal delivery of neurotherapeutics is one of the promising endeavors to surmount the blood-brain barrier, designated as direct nose to brain transport, by the passage of neurotherapeutics along the olfactory an...
