Data for benchmarking low-cost, 3D printed prosthetic hands
( Elsevier Inc. , 2019 , Article)In this article, three different data sets are presented to evaluate a representative of openly accessible 3D printed prosthetic hand. The first data set includes grasping force measurements of human hand and low-cost 3D ... -
Reactive Nitrogen Species Releasing Hydrogel for Enhanced Wound Healing
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2019 , Conference)Poor proliferation and migration of fibroblast, keratinocyte and endothelial cells delays the wound healing in diabetic patients and results into chronicity of wounds. Slow or decreased formation of blood vessels is another ... -
An adaptive thresholding-based process variability monitoring
( Taylor and Francis Inc. , 2019 , Article)In high-dimensional processes, monitoring process variability is considerably difficult due to the large number of variables and the limited number of samples. Monitoring changes in the covariance matrix of a multivariate ... -
Translating advances in organ-on-a-chip technology for supporting organs
( John Wiley and Sons Inc. , 2019 , Article Review)Organ‐on‐a‐chip platforms have recently seen tremendous progress. They have found potential applications in the study of physiology and pathology of tissues, drug toxicity, and development of tissue models for replacement ... -
Development of titanium dioxide nanowire incorporated poly(vinylidene fluoride–trifluoroethylene) scaffolds for bone tissue engineering applications
( Springer New York LLC , 2019 , Article)Critical size bone defects that do not heal spontaneously are among the major reasons for the disability in majority of people with locomotor disabilities. Tissue engineering has become a promising approach for repairing ... -
Graphene Oxide Loaded Hydrogel for Enhanced Wound Healing in Diabetic Patients
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2019 , Conference)Chronic wound or slow healing of a wound is one of the serious complications in diabetic patients. The decrease in the proliferation and migration of cells such as keratinocytes and fibroblasts is the major reason for the ... -
Characteristics of Intermetallic Compounds in Dissimilar Friction Stir Welding: A Review
( Springer New York LLC , 2019 , Article Review)In the present paper, mechanical and metallurgical characteristics of different dissimilar weldments fabricated by friction stir welding were investigated. Existence of lamellar composite structure within the stir zone in ... -
A framework based on location hazard index for optimizing operational performance of emergency response strategies: The case of petrochemical industrial cities
( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article)Emergency response operations are very important activities in the industrial areas. As an incident in an industrial area can have considerable economic and social impact, response to such an incident has to be provided ... -
A review on porous polymer composite materials for multifunctional electronic applications
