Allergenicity of roasted peanuts treated with a non-human digestive protease
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2015 , Article)
Peanut allergy is a severe and lifelong type of food allergy triggered by allergenic proteins and peptides in peanuts. This study investigated the effects of ultrasound-assisted alcalase treatment on the concentrations of ...
Effect of microstructural evolution on wettability and tribological behavior of TiO2 nanotubular arrays coated on Ti–6Al–4V
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2015 , Article)
Self-organized TiO2 nanotubular arrays were fabricated by electrochemical anodization of Ti–6Al–4V plates in an NH4F/H3PO4 electrolyte. The effect of microstructural evolutions on the wettability and tribological behavior ...
TiO2 nanotube coating on stainless steel 304 for biomedical applications
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2015 , Article)
The present study describes the anodic growth of TiO2 nanotube thin layer on stainless steel 304 in ethylene glycol/water/ammonium fluoride electrolyte. In this regard, pure titanium was coated on stainless steel 304 ...
Spiderweb Honeycombs
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2015 , Article)
Small and large deformation in-plane elastic response of a new class of hierarchical fractal-like honeycombs inspired by the topology of the “spiderweb” were investigated through analytical modeling, detailed numerical ...
An intelligent sensing system tor healthcare applications using real-time EMG and gaze fusion
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This paper propose and discuss a solution of an intelligent visualization/sensing system for people who suffer from spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) which is a disorder that gradually makes the person paralyzed. The solution ...
Can immersive type of Virtual Reality bring EMG pattern changes post facial palsy?
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
The loss of facial expression via facial paralysis is a devastating condition, both functionally and aesthetically. However, given the life-long plasticity of the brain one could assume that recovery could be facilitated ...
Electroencephalography simulation hardware for realistic seizure, preseizure and normal mode signal generation
(
American Scientific Publishers
, 2015 , Article)
Unlike the ECG and EKG simulators which are very commonly used for these applications, there is a big need for seizure related EEG simulator. Having a hardware system that can be used instead of a real patient to generate ...
Foraging and habitat use of common duikers, Sylvicapra grimmia, in a heterogeneous environment within the Soutpansberg, South Africa
(
Wiley-Blackwell
, 2015 , Article)
We investigated aspects of the foraging behaviour and activity patterns of free-ranging common duikers (Sylvicapra grimmia) within the Soutpansberg, South Africa. We used giving-up densities (GUD) and camera traps to test ...
A pictorial mobile application for improving communication skills in non-verbal autism
(
International Association of Online Engineering
, 2015 , Article)
It is estimated that as many as 25 percent of individuals living with autism spectrum disorders are nonverbal. That is, they cannot functionally communicate with others using their voice. Despite that substantial fraction, ...
Combined theoretical and experimental study of the transmission of tilted ion beams through macroscopic conical glass capillaries
(
IOP Publishing
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
The transmission as a function of the tilt angle of a 3 keV Ar+ ion beam through a conical macroscopic glass capillary is studied theoretically and experimentally. It was found that the charge patches which are responsible ...
