Background Image contrast between normal tissue and brain tumours may sometimes appear to be low in intraoperative ultrasound. Ultrasound imaging of strain is an image modality that has been recently explored for intraoperative imaging of the brain. This study aims to investigate differences in...
Self-lubricated coatings have been a major topic of interest in thermal spray in the last decades. Self-lubricated coatings obtained by thermal spray are exclusively based on solid lubricants (PTFE, h-BN, graphite, MoS2, etc.) embedded in the matrix. Production of thermal spray coatings containing...
Metabolic profiling of Pseudomonas fluorescens SBW25 and various mutants derived thereof was performed to explore how the bacterium adapt to changes in carbon source and upon induction of alginate synthesis. The experiments were performed at steady-state conditions in nitrogen-limited chemostats...
This paper describes a distributed mechanistic dynamic model of a hydrogen membrane reformer unit (HMR) used for methane steam reforming. The model is based on a square channel monolith structure concept, where air flows adjacent to a mix of natural gas and water distributed in a chess pattern of...
In order to realize reliable 3D stacking of micro electromechanical systems (MEMS), interconnection and through wafer via technologies have been adapted from other areas and verified for MEMS applications. True stacking of a system including MEMS requires vias through the MEMS and electrical and...
