This paper presents analysis and implementation of a simple electrostatic microvalve designed for use in parylene-based lab-on-a-chip devices. The microvalve utilizes an in-plane collapsing diaphragm. To investigate the ...

Ventricular late potentials (VLPs) are considered as a noninvasive marker of patients with myocardial infarction, who are prone to the development of ventricular tachycardia. This paper investigates the effects of variations ...

We present a model system that might serve as a blueprint for the controlled layout of graphene based nanodevices. The systems consists of chains of B-7 clusters implanted in a graphene matrix, where the boron clusters are ...

Using the molecular dynamics simulation technique, we have studied the melting behaviour of free, icosahedral Pt-N clusters in the size range of N = 12-14. The Voter and Chen version of an embedded-atom model, derived by ...

An Ar+-Ni(1 0 0) collision system at 1 keV impact energy was investigated by using realistic isoenergetic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The sputtering process upon Ar+ ion impact and damage to the Ni(1 0 0) surface ...
