Delivery of drugs and nanomedicines to tumors is often heterogeneous and insufficient and, thus, of limited efficacy. Microbubbles in combination with ultrasound have been found to improve delivery to tumors, enhancing accumulation and penetration. We used a subcutaneous prostate cancer xenograft model...

...digitalization using a socio-technical systems design as a theoretical framework and a case-study approach. Semi-structured interviews with 15 relevant stakeholders are conducted to learn about barriers to and enablers of the development and implementation process in a manufacturing company. After conducting a...

...demand for optimized utilization will be increasing with respect to efficiency, aesthetics and reliability. In cold climate regions, we predict that there will also be a growing focus on how to avoid snow and ice formation on the exterior surfaces of BIPV. During the winter period there is substantially...

...hexamethyldisiloxane and TEOS: tetraethylorthosilicate) have been fabricated in a two-step process using atmospheric pressure plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (AP-PECVD) on ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer (EPDM) and NBR (nitrile butadiene rubber) to reduce stick slip and wear of the elastomer...

...work, Norway spruce stem wood, stump and bark were torrefied in a bench scale tubular reactor at 225, 275 and 300 °C with two residence times (30 and 60 min). Effect of torrefaction on general properties, chemical composition, grindability and microstructure and morphology of biomass samples were studied...

...heating system has been investigated employing simulations from the IDA Indoor Climate and Energy software. For the construction of the original building, customs and regulations from the period 1981-90 were employed, and the building envelope was upgraded to the requirements of the Norwegian research centre...

Individuals with disabilities encounter practical and social problems beyond those experienced by nondisabled individuals. This extra burden may in turn increase the risk of developing mental health problems. The objective of this article is to disclose the mental health situation among deaf individuals...

...industrial modeling was suggested and demonstrated on industrial use cases with a process centric approach by Zoric et al. (2014). The present paper elaborates further on these concepts with focus on modeling and experimental data and metadata, their organization, syntax and semantics. This is exemplified...

...presents an experimental and numerical investigation on the response of Kuru granite rock under confining compression and static indentation. Triaxial compression tests were executed at different levels of confining pressure. Indirect tensile tests were carried out with Brazilian disks, and quasi-static indentation...
