New product development has been considered a key success factor for today's businesses. Long term survival of many manufacturing organizations depends on how successful organizations are introducing new products to compete in existing markets or in creating new markets. Despite the importance of new product development, many manufacturing organizations face...
In light of the current world-wide energy situation,
the utilization of the immense reserves of geothermal
energy is being actively pursued. The thermal energy contained
in a geothermal reservoir is mainly stored in rocks,
but is also held in liquid water and/or steam. The generation
of electrical power from these...
Nitric oxide (NO) is a signaling molecule that regulates blood pressure and vascular tone. Humans produce NO by endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), which is impaired in patients with cardiovascular disease leading to increased blood pressure, endothelial dysfunction, and an increased risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Maintaining optimal levels of...
Transport phenomena specially the ones that occur in the various engineering disciplines such as tissue engineering and natural environment are often complex to analyze mostly due to the dynamic and geometric complexities; as such, they have been the subject of an active and intense area of research in past decades....
An automated instrument based on a single-board microcomputer
was developed for use in voltammetric analyses. Operator input of
numerous experiment parameters allows any type of voltammetric
analysis to be implemented and multiple scans to be run unattended.
A three operational amplifier potentiostat is used to control
the cell voltage and...
