Nine-level asymmetrical single phase multilevel inverter topology with low switching frequency and reduce device counts
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2017 , Conference Paper)This paper presents a new asymmetrical single-phase multilevel inverter topology capable of producing nine-level output voltage with reduce device counts. In order to obtain the desired output voltage, dc sources are ... -
Nine-Phase Six-Terminal Induction Machine Modeling Using Vector Space Decomposition
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2019 , Article)The nine-phase six-terminal induction machine (IM) has been recently proposed as a promising contender to the conventional asymmetrical six-phase type in terms of torque density, stator winding simplicity, and fault-tolerant ... -
Nine-phase six-terminal pole-amplitude modulated induction motor for electric vehicle applications
( Institution of Engineering and Technology , 2019 , Article)In electric drive applications that are based on high-speed induction motors (IMs) with an extended speed range, stator winding pole-changing is a possible technique to avoid oversizing the driving motor. The electronic ... -
Nitrate removal from water using UV-M/S2O42- advanced reduction process
( Springer , 2013 , Article)In this work, a new process called advanced reduction process (ARP) was used for nitrate removal from water. This ARP process combines sodium dithionite as reducing agent with ultraviolet irradiation using medium pressure ... -
Nitric oxide releasing chitosan-poly (vinyl alcohol) hydrogel promotes angiogenesis in chick embryo model
( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article)The lack of angiogenic activity is one of the serious complications of chronic wounds associated with delayed wound closure, chronic ulceration, and subsequent limb amputation. Multiple lines of evidence suggest that nitric ... -
Nitric oxide-releasing biomaterials for promoting wound healing in impaired diabetic wounds: State of the art and recent trends
( Elsevier Masson s.r.l. , 2022 , Article)Impaired diabetic wounds are serious pathophysiological complications associated with persistent microbial infections including failure in the closure of wounds, and the cause of a high frequency of lower limb amputations. ... -
Nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria as a potential resource for efficient biodiesel production
( Elsevier Ltd , 2020 , Article)The incessant utilization of non-renewable energy sources persistently pollutes the earth's atmosphere and thus requires the immediate substitution by renewable energy sources such as biofuel. In this study, several ... -
Nitron tetrachloroaurate(III) electrodes with poly(vinyl chloride) and liquid membranes for the selective determination of gold
( Elsevier , 1991 , Article)PVC matrix and liquid membrane electrodes have been developed for direct potentiometric determination of gold(III). The membranes incorporate nitron tetrachloroaurate(III) as electroactive material. Fast response for ... -
NMR spectroscopy of polymer nanocomposites
( Elsevier Inc. , 2016 , Book chapter)Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a technique of utmost significance when dealing with the characterization of the polymers and their nanocomposites. This chapter focuses on the influence of this particular ... -
No assemblage required: On pursuing original consumer culture theory
( SAGE Publications Ltd , 2019 , Article)Our title plays with the promise on certain consumer goods packages of “no assembly required,” but in fact we call upon the reader to assemble new theories rather than rely on existing ones like assemblage theory. We argue ... -
No Association Between Ct Value and COVID-19 Severity and Mortality in Qatar.
( Dove Press Ltd , 2023 , Article)The association between the cycle threshold (Ct) which reflects the SARS-CoV-2 viral load and the severity of COVID-19 is still not clear. We investigated the association between Ct values, symptoms and the risk of ICU ... -
No longer locally extinct? Tracing the origins of a lion (Panthera leo) living in Gabon
( Springer Netherlands , 2018 , Article)Lions (Panthera leo) are of particular conservation concern due to evidence of recent, widespread population declines in what has hitherto been seen as a common species, robust to anthropogenic disturbance. Here we use ... -
No social distancing from food: How the COVID-19 pandemic shaped student food-related activities in the Western Balkans
( SAGE Publications Ltd , 2023 , Article)Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has influenced food preparation and consumption habits, as well as food wastage. The pandemic also affected the lives of university students worldwide; their learning and living environments ... -
Noble metal -doped graphitic carbon nitride photocatalyst for enhancement photocatalytic decomposition of antibiotic pollutant in wastewater under visible light
( Elsevier Ltd , 2019 , Article)This study the noble metal (Ag)-doped graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) photocatalyst was synthesized via a facial thermal condensation method. The structure and surface elements distribution of synthesized materials were ... -
Nociceptor subtypes and their incidence in rat lumbar dorsal root ganglia (DRGs): focussing on C-polymodal nociceptors, A?-nociceptors, moderate pressure receptors and their receptive field depths
( Elsevier Ltd , 2019 , Article Review)A recent study with Ca++-sensitive-dyes in neurons in whole DRGs (Table 5) found that much lower percentages of nociceptors were polymodal-nociceptors (PMNs) (Emery et al., 2016), than the 50–80% values in many ... -
A Node Location Algorithm Based on Node Movement Prediction in Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2020 , Article)Aiming at the problems of the low mobility, low location accuracy, high communication overhead, and high energy consumption of sensor nodes in underwater acoustic sensor networks, the MPL (movement prediction location) ... -
Noise pollution in the hospital environment of a developing country: A case study of Lahore (Pakistan)
