This paper includes the results performed in PSIM-9 software such as Performance comparison of Incremental Conductance MPPT method with fixed step size and variable step size under varying irradiation conditions. Keywords—Multi-string Power Conditioning System (PCS), Maximum Power P...

This study was performed to examine the possibility of Er:YAG laser for dentine hypersensitivity treatment using a novel laser probe; broom-type probe. The morphological change of dentinal tubules of bovine dentine plate after low power laser irradiation (5 or 10 mJ/ pulse, 10 pps) or boiling was observed by SEM. Fifty teeth from 13 patients aged 31–54 years with complaint of dentine hypersensi...

This study aimed to determine the effect of active warm-up by local muscle light exercise and passive warm-up by polarized light irradiation on skin and muscle temperatures and forearm muscle performance (muscle strength, power, endurance, and controlled force-exertion). Ten healthy males performed various grip tests before and after active (local muscle light exercise) and passive (linear pola...

To enable an objective evaluation of photocoagulation, we characterize thermal tissue changes induced by laser irradiation with different laser parameters using optical coherence tomography (OCT). Spectral-domain OCT with a newly developed image processing method was used to monitor the thermal changes of ex vivo porcine retina. A sequence of OCT B-scans was obtained at the same retinal positio...

The condensation of benzylamine with glyoxal leads to Hexabenzylhexaazaisowurtzitane (HBIW) in acetonitrile solvent with citric acid as a green catalyst under both conventional stirring and ultrasonic irradiation conditions. The influence of four variables, including the amount of catalyst, solvent, reaction time and ultrasonic power, on the reaction yield was investigated. The results showed t...

Introduction Proton electron double resonance imaging (PEDRI) is a wellestablished method for imaging free radicals in biological samples and small animals [ 11. The EPR resonance of the free radical under study is irradiated during the acquisition of an MR image; the image intensity in parts of the sample containing free radical is altered by the Overhauser effect. In order to reduce the EPR i...

Introduction: Photothermal therapy using gold nanoshells is one of cancer therapy methods. Gold nanoshells generally consist of a silica core and a thin gold shell. Fe3O4@Au core-shell can be used for magnetic targeted therapy. The objective of this study was investigation of the photothermal effects of magnetically targeted Fe3O4@Au NPs and NIR laser irradiation on model of me...

The output power of a photovoltaic (PV) system depends on the external solar irradiation and its own temperature. In order to obtain more power from the PV system, the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is necessary. However, when the PV is partially shaded, there will be multiple peaks in the power-current (P-I) curve. The conventional MPPT methods may be invalid due to falling into the local...

Low-power, soft, or low-level laser irradiation has been successfully used to provide analgesia in injured or diseased tissues. In this study, we tested the possible antinociceptive effect of laser irradiation when applied to a normal tissue before the onset of a painful stimulus. Male Wistar rats (350-380 g) were used. A 1.5% formalin solution (50 microL s.c., diluted in saline) was injected i...

Laser irradiation is one of the therapeutic methods for the recovery of degenerated peripheral nerves. The aim of the present study was to determine if low-power laser treatment stimulates the regeneration process of damaged nerves. A standardized crush to the sciatic nerve was applied to cause extensive axonal degeneration. After this procedure, low-power infrared laser irradiation was adminis...
