Thermal comfort depends on heat exchanges of the body by conduction evapo-transpiration and convection to the air, and radiation to and from surrounding surfaces. Usual ways of sizing heating and cooling systems are based on homogeneous temperature in the ...
Bench-scale biocalorimetry (>=1 L) allows for the detn. of the metabolic heat flow during bioprocesses under complete control of all process conditions for extended periods of time. It can be combined with a no. of online and off-line measurement technique ...
Fully-metal-coated near-field optical probes, based on a cantilever design, have been studied theoretically and experimentally. Numerical simulations prove that these structures allow non-zero modal emission of the electromagnetic field trough a 60 nm thic ...
The radiant external environment may be described by two hemispheres, above and below the horizontal plane, which are discretised into patches of known solid angle. Occlusions to these patches may be combined and represented as some patch fraction for whic ...
This paper deals with the wire-grid representation of metallic surfaces in numerical electromagnetic modeling. We discuss in particular the adequacy of the well known and widely used equal area rule (EAR) to calculate the radii of wire-grid models. We show ...
A method of producing a microencapsulated pharmaceutical formulation is disclosed comprising causing a dye to be attached to the surface of pharmaceutical particles or particle clusters and applying a source of radiant energy to the dye in the presence of ...
The propagation of the electromagnetic field in fully coated near field optical probes was analyzed. It was proved that these structures allow nonzero modal emission of the electromagnetic field through a 60-nm thick metallic layer. It was also found that ...
The photocatalyst for the use in the production of hydrogen from water or aqueous solutions of organic compounds by using light energy, comprises carbon, in addition to a semiconducting photocatalytic material. The photocatalytic apparatus for the producti ...

A quick and reliable test was developed to measure the cyclization activity of cyclodextrin glycosyltransferases (CGT). Since the reproducibility depends mostly on the nature of the substrate, maltotriose was employed. The cyclodextrins formed are measured ...
The damage accumulation in Cu and W is investigated using a multiscale modeling approach. The efficiency for defect production of displacement cascades is calculated using molecular dynamics (MD). The simulation uses the recoil spectra from spallation reac ...
