Multilevel split of high-dimensional water quality data using artificial neural networks for the prediction of dissolved oxygen in the Danube River
(Springer London Ltd, London, 2020)
In this study, a self-organizing network-based monitoring location similarity index (LSI) was coupled with Ward neural networks (WNNs) with the aim to create a more accurate, but less complex, multiple sites model for the ...
The effect of polyhedral oligosilsesquioxanes (POSS) on cavitation resistance of hybrid acrylate films
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2020)
Cavitation erosion of hybrid acrylate composite films with polyhedral oligosilsesquioxanes (POSS) was investigated in this study. The hybrid films are made with 1, 3 and 5 wt% of POSS reagents containing: (a) hydroxyl ...
Phenolic, tocopherol, and essential fatty acid-rich extracts from dandelion seeds: Chemical composition and biological activity
(Institution of Chemical Engineers, 2023)
Dandelion is a sustainable biomass that has occasional use in the food and pharmaceutical industry. However, commercial use of its extracts is restricted by the lack of systematic information on safety, composition, and ...
Oxidized Cotton as a Substrate for the Preparation of Hormone-Active Fibers-Characterization, Efficiency and Biocompatibility
(Korean Fiber Soc, Seoul, 2015)
Oxidized cellulose has a long history of safe and effective use in medical applications. In this paper, research has been directed towards obtaining hormone-active cellulose fibers in the form of an artificial insulin ...
Added-value porous materials for controlled thymol release obtained by supercritical CO2 impregnation process
(Sage Publications Ltd, London, 2019)
This study explores utilization of biodegradable and biocompatible polymers for controlled release of natural bioactive substance. For that purpose, poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL) beads, cellulose acetate (CA) film, and ...
Cornstarch aerogels with thymol, citronellol, carvacrol, and eugenol prepared by supercritical CO2- assisted techniques for potential biomedical applications
(Elsevier Ltd., 05-2024)
This study focuses on the development of bioactive materials using environmentally friendly techniques, renewable, biocompatible, and biodegradable polysaccharide, as well as natural bioactive compounds (NBCs) found in ...
An artificial neural network approach for the estimation of the primary production of energy from municipal solid waste and its application to the Balkan countries
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2018)
Although the use of municipal solid waste to generate energy can decrease dependency on fossil fuels and consequently reduces greenhouse gases emissions and areas that waste occupies, in many countries municipal solid waste ...
Cell jamming-to-unjamming transitions and vice versa in development: Physical aspects
(Elsevier Ltd., 2023)
Collective cell migration is essential for a wide range of biological processes such as: morphogenesis, wound healing, and cancer spreading. However, it is well known that migrating epithelial collectives frequently undergo ...
Remaining strength of API J55 steel casing pipes damaged by corrosion
(International Journal of Pressure Vessels and Piping, 2020)
Experimental investigation of the integrity of casing pipes, used in the oil drilling rigs, withdrawn after about 70,000 h of service, has been conducted, together with numerical simulation. Pipes were manufactured by the ...
Adsorption of arsenate on iron(III) oxide coated ethylenediamine functionalized multiwall carbon nanotubes
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2012)
New criteria in assessing the quality of drinking water reduced the maximum permissible concentration of arsenic from 50 mu g L-1 to 10 mu g L-1 and set a requirement for the development of new technologies for arsenic ...
