Controlling the Microstructure and Composition of 3D Printed Soft Load-Bearing Hydrogels

Hydrogels are among the first materials expressly designed for their use in biomedicine. However, state-of-the-art applications of hydrogels are severely limited because they are typically either too soft or too brittle such that they cannot bear significa ...

Spatial Series and Fractal Analysis Associated with Fracture Behaviour of UO2 Ceramic Material

Maria-Alexandra Paun

SEM micrographs of the fracture surface for UO2 ceramic materials have been analysed. In this paper, we introduce some algorithms and develop a computer application based on the time-series method. Utilizing the embedding technique of phase space, the attr ...

Xerogels Morphology Details by Multifractal Analysis and Scanning Electron Microscopy Images Evaluations of 5-Fluorouracil Release from Chitosan-Based Matrix

Maria-Alexandra Paun

Four medicament delivery formulations based on 5-fluorouracil in a chitosan substantial matrix were realized in situ via 3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadienal element hydrogelation. Representative samples of the final realized compounds were investigated from an ana ...

A Multifractal Vision of 5-Fluorouracil Release from Chitosan-Based Matrix

Maria-Alexandra Paun

A suite of four drug deliverance formulations grounded on 5-fluorouracil enclosed in a chitosan-founded intercellular substance was produced by 3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadienal with in situ hydrogelation. The formulations have been examined from a morphological ...

Fractal Analysis and Time Series Application in ZY-4 SEM Micro Fractographies Evaluation

Maria-Alexandra Paun

SEM microfractographies of Zircaloy-4 are studied by fractal analysis and the time-series method. We first develop a computer application that associates the fractal dimension and lacunarity to each SEM micrograph picture, and produce a nonlinear analysis ...

Fractal analysis in the quantification of medical imaging associated with multiple sclerosis pathology

Maria-Alexandra Paun

Backgrounds: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inveterate phlogistic situation characterized by focal and vaguely diffusive de-myelination and neurodegeneration, in the sphere of central nervous system (CNS). The brain's chronic inflammatory reaction includes ...

Fractal Modeling of Polymer Plasma Laser Ablation, Plasma Plume Tsallis Entropy and Its q-Statistics Interpretation, Part I: Theory

Maria-Alexandra Paun

Polymer plasma produced by laser ablation is investigated in a theoretical manner. In relation to the fact that the charge carrier circulation is assumed to take place on fractal curves, the so-called fractality type, electrical charge transport can be res ...

Minkowski's Loop Fractal Antenna Dedicated to Sixth Generation (6G) Communication

Maria-Alexandra Paun

In this study, we will discuss the engineering construction of a special sixth generation (6G) antenna, based on the fractal called Minkowski's loop. The antenna has the shape of this known fractal, set at four iterations, to obtain maximum performance. Th ...

Wild solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations whose singular sets in time have Hausdorff dimension strictly less than 1

Maria Colombo

We prove non-uniqueness for a class of weak solutions to the Navier???Stokes equations which have bounded kinetic energy, integrable vorticity, and are smooth outside a fractal set of singular times with Hausdorff dimension strictly less than 1. ...

Geometric Percolation of Spherically Symmetric Fractal Aggregates

Claudio Grimaldi

The connectedness percolation threshold (phi(c)) for spherically symmetric, randomly distributed fractal aggregates is investigated as a function of the fractal dimension (d(F)) of the aggregates through a mean-field approach. A pair of aggregates (each of ...
