In response to rising demand for high performance actuators to serve nano-technology, a linear ultrasonic motor was designed and constructed to verify its potential as a viable nano-actuator. After establishing the analytical model that elucidates the physics of the ultrasonic motor operation, experimental performance tests were conducted in a fully digital controlled real-time control environm...

Delignified cellulosic material has shown a significant promotional effect on the alcoholic fermentation as yeast immobilization support. However, its potential for further biotechnological development is unexploited. This study reports the characterization of this tubular/porous cellulosic material, which was done by SEM, porosimetry and X-ray powder diffractometry. The results showed that the...

BACKGROUND Health technology assessment (HTA) is a tool intended to help policy-makers decide which technologies to fund. However, given the proliferation of new technologies, it is not possible to undertake an HTA of each one before it becomes funded. Consequently, "horizon-scanning" processes have been developed to identify emerging technologies that are likely to have a substantial impact on...

The Swiss Nano-Tera.ch program addresses – among others – issues at the intersection of engineering and medical domains. Specifically, electronic-health (or E-Health) is a broad area of engineering that leverages transducer, circuit and systems technologies for applications to health management and lifestyle. Scientific challenges relate to the acquisition of accurate medical information from v...

the potential use of nano technology for improving of withdrawal resistance of nail and screw in wood was evaluated. for this, the maintenance strength of nail and screw was measured under dry and wet conditions for poplar wood (populus nigra) coated with common paints in furniture industry and nano-particles. specimens with dimensions of 15×5×5 cm3 (l×r×t) were cut from poplar wood (populus ni...

Nano-technology is the study of matter behaviour on atomic and molecular scale (i.e. nano-scale). In particular, carbon black is a nano-material generally used for the reinforcement of rubber compounds. Nevertheless, the exact reason behind its success in this concrete domain remains unknown. Characterisation of rubber nano-aggregates aims to answer this question. The morphology of the nano-agg...

Nano particles have a wide range of applications such as electronics, catalysis, chemistry energy and medicine and have thus gained commercial acceptance [1]. Besides improving their functionality, the use of nano technology can result in the production of textiles with completely novel properties or the combination of various functions [2]. Such multifunctional textiles include antistatic text...
