Networks of breakthrough technologies and their use in strategic games for competitive advantage
Breakthrough technologies sustain competitive advantage and are seen as the engine of growth. These technologies can be developed by leveraging internal know-how, but more often they come from an infusion of external technology. The task of screening and selecting innovative technologies to develop …

Characterisation of HIV-1 Envelope features of breakthrough infections from the CAPRISA 004 Microbicide Trial
The CAPRISA 004 trial demonstrated the safety and a 39% efficacy of a 1% tenofovir (TFV) gel for the prevention of HIV-1 acquisition in young African women. It was subsequently shown that women assigned to the TFV arm who became infected had higher viral loads, slower anti-HIV-1 antibody avidity …

Describing and Predicting Breakthrough Curves for non-Reactive Solute Transport in Statistically Homogeneous Porous Media
The applicability and adequacy of three modeling approaches to describe and predict breakthough curves (BTCs) for non-reactive solutes in statistically homogeneous porous media were numerically and experimentally investigated. Modeling approaches were: the convection-dispersion equation (CDE) with …
