in this study, the effects of forming method (extrusion) and environmental factors (solution ph and temperature) on the corrosion performance of az91 magnesium alloys were investigated using potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and salt spray techniques. the polarization test results of the specimens showed that simple sh...

Many biological parameters and processes can be sensed and monitored using their impedance as marker (Grimmes, 2008), (Beach. 2005), (Yúfera, 2005), (Radke, 2004), with the advantage that it is a non-invasive, relatively cheap technique. Cell growth, cell activity, changes in cell composition, shapes or cell location are only some examples of processes which can be detected by microelectrode-ce...

this work is aimed to evaluate the role of nanoclay in the protective performance of an eco-friendly silane sol-gel layer applied on mild steel substrate in 0.1m sodium chloride solution. at the first step, the effect of ph of the silane solution, consisting of a mixture of γ-glycidoxypropiltrimethoxysilane and methyltriethoxysilane and tetraethoxysilane, on the coating performance was evaluate...

Bioimpedance has been of great significance for its applications in exploring the electrical properties of biological materials. It has been widely applied in cancer detection of tissues. However, studies at the tissue level have not achieved a consensus over the changes of impedance parameters due to the complex structure and heterogeneity of tissue. Moreover, the relationship of biological ch...

BACKGROUND Impedance spectroscopy has been shown to be a candidate for noninvasive continuous glucose monitoring in humans. However, in addition to glucose, other factors also have effects on impedance characteristics of the skin and underlying tissue. METHOD Impedance spectra were summarized through a principal component analysis and relevant variables were identified with Akaike's informati...

13 Background: Intraluminal electrical impedance is a well-known diagnostic tool used to 14 study bolus movement in the human oesophagus. However, its use in the human colon it 15 is hindered by the fact that the content cannot be controlled and may include liquid, gas, 16 solid or a mixture of these at any one time. This article investigates the use of complex 17 impedance spectroscopy to stud...

In this paper we develop an analytical framework for the study of electrochemical impedance of mixed ionic and electronic conductors (MIEC). The framework is based on non-equilibrium thermodynamics and it features the coupling of electrochemical reactions, surface transport and bulk transport processes. We utilize this work to analyze two-dimensional systems relevant for fuel cell science via t...

Biological tissue impedance spectroscopy can provide rich physiological and pathological information by measuring the variation of the complex impedance of biological tissues under various frequencies of driven current. Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) technique can measure the impedance spectroscopy of biological tissue in medical field. Before application, a key problem must be solved on...
