Mucociliary clearance is the primary defense mechanism that protects the airways from inhaled toxicants and infectious agents. The fluid medium is spatially non-homogenous, consisting of a viscoelastic mucus layer on top of a nearly-viscous periciliary layer surrounding the motile cilia. In healthy environments, the thickness of the periciliary layer is comparable to the cilia length. Perturbat...

There is currently no widely accepted and deployed approach to provide security for the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP). A promising new approach is to use the Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) protocol, adding an encryption and authentication layer between transport and application protocol. The adaption for SCTP supports all features without compromising security or requiri...

The General Internet Signaling Transport (GIST) protocol currently uses TCP or Transport Layer Security (TLS) over TCP for Connection mode operation. This document describes the usage of GIST over the Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) and Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS).

In this work the growth and the characterization of red emitting triple-layer electroluminescent organic devices using vacuum deposited (Eu(TTA)3(TPPO)2) europium complex as emitting layer are described. The observed electroluminescence (EL) is characteristic of the Eu emission. In this device the hole transport layer is obtained using a thin lm of 1-(3-methylphenyl)1,2,3,4 tetrahydroquinoline-...

We propose a magnetic topological transistor based on MnBi$_{2}$Te$_{4}$, in which the "on" state (quantized conductance) and "off" (zero can be easily switched by changing relative direction of two adjacent electric fields (parallel vs. antiparallel) applied within two-terminal junction. explain that proposed relies novel mechanism due to interplay topology, magnetism, layer degrees freedom Mn...
