There is an extensive possibility of improving characteristics of fibers used in hard tissue engineering, being hydrophobic and less osteoconductive, resulting in the dynamic growth of new tissues. The current work focuses on the fabrication of nanofibers incorporated with titanium dioxide (TiO2) ''as osteoconductive'' and silver (Ag) ''as self-healing'' nanoparticles (NPs). The incorporation of AgNO3 by in situ method not only helped to impart the antibacterial activity but also changed the contact angle from 81 ± 03° in the case of pristine nanofibers to 74 ± 03°, 61 ± 03°, 50 ± 08°, and 39 ± 1.1°, in the composite scaffolds containing 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, and 0.07 M of Ag salts. The incubation in simulated body fluid at 37°C to induce mineralization on nanofiber scaffolds indicated Ca and P crystals' formation. The antibacterial activity showed significantly more toxicity toward E. coli (8.3 ± 0.9 mm) than S. aureus (1.2 ± 0.1 mm). Biocompatibility studies using MTT assay on the pre-osteoblasts showed that both TiO2 and Ag NPs present in the nanofibers are non-toxic to the bone-like cells. However, results show that a higher concentration of Ag NPs (i.e., 0.07 M) is toxic to cells growing. Finally, all the results suggest that the nanofiber scaffolds have considerable scope for future bone tissue engineering materials. 相似文献

Intellectual property (IP) block reuse is essential for facilitating the design process of system-on-a-chip. Sharing IP designs poses significant high security risks. Recently, digital watermarking emerged as a candidate solution for copyright protection of IP blocks. In this paper, we survey and classify different techniques used for watermarking IP designs. To this end, we defined several evaluation criteria, which can also be used as a benchmark for new IP watermarking developments. Furthermore, we established a comprehensive set of requirements for future IP watermarking techniques. 相似文献

Markov chains are extensively used in modeling different aspects of engineering and scientific systems, such as performance of algorithms and reliability of systems. Different techniques have been developed for analyzing Markovian models, for example, Markov Chain Monte Carlo based simulation, Markov Analyzer, and more recently probabilistic model-checking. However, these techniques either do not guarantee accurate analysis or are not scalable. Higher-order-logic theorem proving is a formal method that has the ability to overcome the above mentioned limitations. However, it is not mature enough to handle all sorts of Markovian models. In this paper, we propose a formalization of Discrete-Time Markov Chain (DTMC) that facilitates formal reasoning about time-homogeneous finite-state discrete-time Markov chain. In particular, we provide a formal verification on some of its important properties, such as joint probabilities, Chapman-Kolmogorov equation, reversibility property, using higher-order logic. To demonstrate the usefulness of our work, we analyze two applications: a simplified binary communication channel and the Automatic Mail Quality Measurement protocol. 相似文献

Today’s analog/RF design and verification face significant challenges due to circuit complexity, process variations and short
market windows. In particular, the influence of technology parameters on circuits, and the issues related to noise modeling
and verification still remain a priority for many applications. Noise could be due to unwanted interaction between the circuit
elements or it could be inherited from the circuit elements. In addition, manufacturing disparity influence the characteristic
behavior of the manufactured circuits. In this paper, we propose a methodology for modeling and verification of analog/RF
designs in the presence of noise and process variations. Our approach is based on modeling the designs using stochastic differential
equations (SDE) that will allow us to incorporate the statistical nature of noise. We also integrate the device variation
due to 0.18μ
m fabrication process in an SDE based simulation framework for monitoring properties of interest in order to quickly detect
errors. Our approach is illustrated on nonlinear Tunnel-Diode and a Colpitts oscillator circuits. 相似文献

Probabilistic techniques are widely used in the analysis of algorithms to estimate the computational complexity of algorithms
or a computational problem. Traditionally, such analyses are performed using paper-and-pencil proofs and the results are sometimes
validated using simulation techniques. These techniques are informal and thus may result in an inaccurate analysis. In this
paper, we propose a formal technique for analyzing the expected time complexity of algorithms using higher-order-logic theorem
proving. The approach calls for mathematically modeling the algorithm along with its inputs, using indicator random variables,
in higher-order logic. This model is then used to formally reason about the expected time complexity of the underlying algorithm
in a theorem prover. The paper includes the higher-order-logic formalization of indicator random variables, which are fundamental
to the proposed infrastructure. In order to illustrate the practical effectiveness and utilization of the proposed infrastructure,
the paper also includes the analysis of algorithms for three well-known problems, i.e., the hat-check problem, the birthday
paradox and the hiring problem. 相似文献

Composites realized by hand lay-up process in a civil engineering environment: initial properties and durability 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The repair, the reinforcement as well as the setting in safety of buildings and existing reinforced and/or pre-stressed concrete structure is a real technological stake and a socio-economic problem for the near future. The introduction of composites in civil engineering is an interesting answer to these goals, but they brought an important amount of new problems that have to be solved for safe structural applications under combined mechanical and environmental loadings. In fact during the past five years, we have witnessed exponential growth in research or field demonstrations of fiber-reinforced composites in civil engineering. Manufacturers and designers have now access to a wide range of composite materials. However, they face great problems with forecasting the reliability of composite materials. Their introduction in civil engineering applications is a difficult operation due to working environment and weathering conditions. The objective of this paper is to study the effect of these conditions and their consequences on the mechanical properties of the final composite. An analysis of the rheological (viscoelastic) properties was carried out in order to observe the glass transition temperature evolution according to reactive mixture stoichiometry and weathering conditions. 相似文献
