The vehicle sharing systems (VSSs) are becoming more and more popular due to both financial and environmental effects. On the other hand, they face many challenges, such as inventory management of the vehicles and parking spots, imbalance of the vehicles, ...
In the present work, palm wood was pretreated using hydrothermal technique in conjunction with chemical method for removal of lignin. Pretreated palm wood was subjected to hydrolysis using Trichoderma reesei MTCC 4876. Subsequently bioethanol was produced ...
This study aimed to investigate the performance of an updated version of our pre-impact detection algorithm parsing out the output of a set of Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) placed on lower limbs and designed to recognize signs of lack of balance due to ...
We characterize engineered nanostructures with sizes smaller than half a wavelength using spectrally resolved interferometry. We analyze the response of the meta-atom of interest, which has a raspberry-like geometry. To identify the origin of the response, ...
Background: We present a macular dystrophy of differing severity in a single kindred caused by a heterozygous nonsense mutation in CRX. Case report: A 21 year old Caucasian male from a Swiss family was investigated for decreasing central visual acuity asso ...
Parkinson disease (PD) is characterized by a pivotal progressive loss of substantia nigra dopaminergic neurons and aggregation of alpha-synuclein protein encoded by the SNCA gene. Genome-wide association studies identified almost 100 sequence variants link ...
The effect of the electrolyte pH on the performance of metal oxide photoanodes for solar water oxidation has not been fully resolved, and contrasting views have been presented in recent reports. Herein, a comprehensive set of spectroelectrochemical techniq ...
We consider the problem of aligning a pair of databases with jointly Gaussian features. We consider two algorithms, complete database alignment via MAP estimation among all possible database alignments, and partial alignment via a thresholding approach of ...
Mid-infrared spectrum is powerful for biosensing application, as it encompasses the molecular vibrations that uniquely identify the biochemicals. Here, we will present our contributions using metal, graphene and dielectric based Mid-IR nanophotonics. ...
Train wheel flats are formed when wheels slip on rails. Crucial for passenger comfort and the safe operation of train systems, early detection and quantification of wheel-flat severity without interrupting railway operations is a desirable and challenging ...
