Control of aggregation, by lowering temperature and protein concentrations, can enhance the extent of successful refolding. The low temperature has been used in protein folding studies, as undesired aggregations often occur at higher temperatures. Therefore, it is very important to study the effects...

A 2-D finite point meshless model was used to simulate the heat transfer and solidification of steel in continuous casting molds to illustrate its use in metallurgy. The latent heat of the pure metal was treated using the temperature recovery method and the latent heat of the alloy was treated using...

An abstraction method developed for the explicit linear temporal logic model checking was geared towards reducing the useless part of the state space during the abstraction period. This reduces the cost during the abstraction period relative to models requiring many useless states. A dining-philosop...

The rapid prototyping and manufacturing technology (RPM), is an integration of many different disciplines. It is based on an advanced dispersed-accumulated forming principle and originated from 1980s. It generates an entity by first forming a series of layers according to the dispersed section infor...

The purpose of this paper is to overcome the limitations of the traditional cranial defects restoration technique and better satisfy the aesthetic and comfort demands of different patients. An arithmetic profile curve blending technique was used based on a well-proportioned points cloud data obtaine...
