Microgrids with distributed generation (DG) provide a resilient solution in the case of major
faults in a distribution system due to natural disasters. This paper proposes a novel …

Inspired by the attractive Flops/dollar ratio and the incredible growth in the speed of modern
graphics processing units (GPUs), we propose to use a cluster of GPUs for high …

One hundred users, one hundred needs. As more and more topics are being discussed on
the web and our vocabulary remains relatively stable, it is increasingly difficult to let the …

Binding activity for nuclear factor kappa B (NFkappaB) consensus probes was studied in
nuclear extracts from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of 15 septic patients (10 surviving and …

The inflammasome is a multiprotein complex involved in innate immunity. Activation of the
inflammasome causes the processing and release of the cytokines interleukins 1β and 18. In …

The energy-filtering effect was successfully employed at the organic–inorganic semiconductor
interface of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) nanocomposites with the addition of Bi2Te3 …

Natural disasters such as Hurricane Sandy can seriously disrupt the power grids. To
increase the resilience of an electric distribution system against natural disasters, this paper …

The purinergic receptor P2X 7 is part of a complex signaling mechanism participating in a
variety of physiological and pathological processes. Depending on the activation scheme, P2X …

Thermoelectric materials have garnered considerable attention due to their unique ability to
directly convert heat to electricity and vice versa. Polymers carry many intrinsic advantages …

… could transform berberine after in vitro incubation (Feng et al., Citation2015; Wang et al.,
Citation2015b). These results were inconsistent with our findings (Qiu et al., Citation2008) and …
