(Elsevier, 2020-12-15)COVID-19 pandemic is on a trajectory to cause catastrophic global upheaval with the potential to alter geopolitical and socio-economic norms. Many countries are frantically responding with staggering financial stimulus ... -
Mechanism of formation, characterization and cytotoxicity of green synthesized zinc nanoparticles obtained from Ilex paraguariensis leaves extract
(Elsevier, 2020-10)Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) was produced using Ilex paraguariensis (mate) leaves extract using a green synthesis process. The influence of ethanolic and aqueous plant extract and zinc source on the green synthesis ... -
Effect of stereolithography 3D printing on the properties of PEGDMA hydrogels.
(MDPI, 2020-09-03)Stereolithography (SLA)-based 3D printing has proven to have several advantages over traditional fabrication techniques as it allows for the control of hydrogel synthesis at a very high resolution, making possible the ... -
Preclinical assessment of biomimetic and bioactive bone regeneration scaffold in femoral condyle defect of Sprague Dawley rats.
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020)A fabricated biomimetic bone scaffold, incorporating osteogenic factors, presents a promising alternative to traditional autologous and allogeneic bone fracture treatments. Here, the principles of biology and engineering ... -
Fused-filament fabrication of PEEK: a review of process-structure-property relationships.
(MDPI, 2020-07-27)Poly (ether ether ketone) (PEEK) is a high-performance engineering thermoplastic polymer with potential for use in a variety of metal replacement applications due to its high strength to weight ratio. This combination ... -
Enzymatic activities and analysis of a mycelium-based composite formation using peach palm (Bactris gasipaes) residues on Lentinula edodes.
(Research Square, 2020-08-03)By seeding fungus on top of industry residues, a mycelium can grow and form a compacted network structure, producing a material whose properties can be quite similar to polystyrene. However, depending on the source used, ... -
Development of alginate beads with encapsulated jabuticaba peel and propolis extracts to achieve a new natural colorant antioxidant additive.
(Elsevier, 2020-07)This work aims to encapsulate anthocyanins and phenolic compounds extracted from a native Brazilian fruit peel - jabuticaba (Plinia cauliflora (Mart.) Kausel) and propolis from Tubuna (Scaptotrigona bipunctata) stingless ... -
Polymer based additive manufacturing historical developments, process types and material considerations.
(Springer Nature, 2019)3D printing is a manufacturing technique where parts are built in a layer-by-layer fashion. The earliest embodiments were based on generating successive layers of solidified materials at the air liquid interface through ... -
Tunable memristor emulator using off-the-shelf components.
(Elsevier, 2020)Emerging memristor technology is as of late drawing broad consideration due to its potential for several applications. But, the non-availability of solid-state memristive devices puts a practical limitation. So, this paper ... -
Shallow and deep learning approaches for network intrusion alert prediction.
(Elsevier, 2020)The ever-increasing frequency and intensity of intrusion attacks on computer networks worldwide has necessitated intense research efforts towards the design of attack detection and prediction mechanisms. While there are a ... -
Low-complexity high-performance deep learning model for real time low cost embedded fire detection system.
(Elsevier, 2020)Correct and timely detection of fires has been an active area of research. Both shallow learning (with manual feature engineering), as well as deep learning (with its promise of automatically extracting meaningful ... -
Trace model for cyclic behavior in wireless LANS.
(Pakistan Association for the Advancement of Science, 2018-09): For the estimation of cycle time in WLANs different parameters were used to analyze the cyclic behavior like packet loss cycle, successful packet cycle and collision cycle. This paper proposes a model to control all ... -
Property based attestation for a secure cloud monitoring system.
(IEEE, 2014-02)—In this paper, we consider the problem of trust in cloud monitoring systems. We design and develop a novel scheme for trust certification using property based attestation (PBA). The PBA is based on a trusted platform ... -
Single system image: a survey
(Elsevier, 2016-04)Single system image is a computing paradigm where a number of distributed computing resources are aggregated and presented via an interface that maintains the illusion of interaction with a single system. This approach ... -
SVS - a secure scheme for video streaming using SRTP AES and DH.
(Euro Journals, 2010)Video streaming technologies are becoming immensely important with the growth of the multimedia technology. With streaming, the end user can start watching the file almost as soon as it begins downloading. Security becomes ... -
