Layer-by-Layer Systems for Craniomaxillofacial Bone Repair
… that can potentially meet this challenge is layer-by-layer (LBL) self-assembly, which can be used to coat defect-relevant implants with nanoscale thickness films that elute growth factors with tunable release kinetics and dose. In this work, we first developed LBL film architectures deliver …

Preparation and investigation of polymer-foam films and polymer-layer systems for ferroelectrets
… Ferroelectrets are functional polymer systems for electromechanical transduction, with elastically heterogeneous cellular structures and internal quasi-permanent dipole moments. The piezoelectricity of ferroelectrets stems from linear changes of the dipole moments in response to …

Estimation of cavity pressures in air-permeable, multi-layer systems using a lumped-leakage approach
… tests. But in the case of air-permeable multi-layer systems, which have gaps or porosity in the external layer along with a cavity between the external and inner layers, the estimation of wind loading across the external layer or in the inner cavity by wind tunnel tests can be quite difficult …

Evaluating least absolute deviation regression as an inverse model in groundwater flow calibration
… MODFLOW groundwater model works well with single layer geologic systems; however, it does not work well with multi-layer systems. This dissertation provides the Least sum Absolute Deviation regression and Expectation Maximization procedures. These new FORTRAN procedures were added to the parameter …

Modeling of Foam Flow in Porous Media for Subsurface Environmental Remediation
… of surfactant/foam displacement in multi-layer systems. Part 1 investigates six scenarios such as different levels of foam strength (i.e., gas mobility reduction factors), different initial conditions (i.e., initially oil/water or oil/water/gas present), foam stability affected by water …

Experiments with withdrawal-induced resonant internal waves
… Theory appropriate to internal waves in two layer systems has been presented with an extension to deal with the effect of viscosity. The study shows that modulated pumping is a viable method of generating internal waves experimentally and may have applications in controlled reservoirs on …

DGCNN : learning point cloud representations by dynamic graph CNN
… acts on graphs dynamically computed in each layer of the network. It is differentiable and can be plugged into existing architectures. Compared to existing modules operating in extrinsic space or treating each point independently, EdgeConv has several appealing properties: It incorporates …

Wind-Induced Pressures in Air Permeable, Double-Layer Roof Systems in Regions of Separated Flow
… distribution acting on air permeable, double-layer roof systems placed on low-rise buildings. Because of the pressure transmission into the cavity between layers, the pressure difference in the double-layer systems differs significantly from that in a single layer. The interior pressures (in …

Analysis of soil penetrometer using Eulerian finite element method
… Strain Path Method. Further calculations for two-layer systems illustrate the potential of the Eulerian formulation to handle realistic layered soil profiles. A more limited study confirms the complexity of drained penetration in sands, where the predicted tip resistance is affected by soil …
