Novel constant current driver for ISFET/MEMFETs characterization
2001
Abstract In the present work a new constant current driver for ISFETs and MEMFETs sensors has been developed. The proposed circuit maintains the ISFET/MEMFET operation point at constant drain–source current and voltage. The combination of some programmable current sources and an appropriate selection of a simple precision resistor allow a good ISFET/MEMFET polarization. The use of operational amplifiers with low offset and drift are required to provide the buffering function needed by the sensor.
Intraperitoneal adhesions-an ongoing challenge between biomedical engineering and the life sciences
2011
Peritoneal adhesions remain a relevant clinical problem despite the currently available prophylactic barrier materials. So far, the physical separation of traumatized serosa areas using barriers represents the most important clinical strategy for adhesion prevention. However, the optimal material has not yet been found. Further optimization or pharmacological functionalization of these barriers could give an innovative input for peritoneal adhesion prevention. Therefore, a more complete understanding of pathogenesis is required. On the basis of the pathophysiology of adhesion formation the main barriers currently in clinical practice as well as new innovations are discussed in the present r…
Finite-element simulation of residual stress induced by split-sleeve cold-expansion process of holes
2008
A three-dimensional finite-element simulation was conducted for a split-sleeve cold-expansion process in order to determine the residual stress field around an expanded hole. The commercial FEA software DEFORM-3D™, a Lagrangian implicit code designed for metal forming processes, was used to model the cold-expansion process of a fastener hole. The results show a through-thickness residual stress field in good agreement with the analytical solution developed by Guo. Moreover, the simulation has highlighted the effect of the split sleeve and the plate thickness on the residual stress field. © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
Analytical bonding criteria for joint integrity prediction in friction stir welding of aluminum alloys
2014
Abstract In this study, two bonding criteria, previously used for porthole die extrusion, are applied to FSW starting from the local value of the main field variables calculated through a specifically developed 3D numerical model of the process. Their applicability and effectiveness have been assessed through an experimental and numerical campaign carried out with the main process parameters varying in a wide range. The pressure–time–flow criterion was demonstrated to be better suited for FSW processes when large welding speed is used.
Influence of M23C6 carbides on the heterogeneous strain development in annealed 420 stainless steel
2020
Understanding the local strain enhancement and lattice distortion resulting from different microstructure features in metal alloys is crucial in many engineering processes. The development of heterogeneous strain not only plays an important role in the work hardening of the material but also in other processes such as recrystallization and damage inheritance and fracture. Isolating the contribution of precipitates to the development of heterogeneous strain can be challenging due to the presence of grain boundaries or other microstructure features that might cause ambiguous interpretation. In this work a statistical analysis of local strains measured by electron back scatter diffraction and …
A general diastereoselective synthesis of highly functionalized ferrocenyl ambiphiles enabled on a large scale by electrochemical purification
2017
International audience; A general synthesis of highly functionalized ferrocenes, which include (P,B)- and (N,B)-ambiphiles, has been developed at a multigram scale. Diastereoselective stepwise modification of di-tert-butylated ferrocenes included the unprecedented separation of electroactive species. Bulky alkyl groups on ferrocenes ensure planar chirality of ambiphiles and enforce closer proximity of antagonist Lewis functions.
Inhibitoren der Korrosion 27 (1). Inhibitoren der Korrosion von Kupfer - Gibt es eine Struktur-Wirkungsbeziehung?
1982
Mehr als 570 Verbindungen der unterschiedlichsten Struktur wurden unter Standardbedingungen im “Schuttelversuch” und pH-statisch auf ihre Korrosionsschutzwirkung gegenuber Kupfer getestet und mit Hilfe eines Computers ausgewertet. Die erhaltenen Ergebnisse stehen relativ haufig in Ubereinstimmung mit Dem “Hart-Weich-Konzept” von Pearson. Eine gezielte Synthese von Inhibitoren, die sich in diesem Konzept orientiert, ist jedoch nicht moglich. Inhibitors of corrosion 27 (1). Inhibitors of the corrosion of copper Does there exist a structure-effect-relation? Over 570 compounds of greatly varying structure have been tested under controlled conditions in agitation and pH-stat experiments designed…
Retracted Article: Differential detection and quantification of cyclic AMP and other adenosine phosphates in live cells
2017
A new naphthol-based rhodamine derivative (NpRD) has been developed for the selective and differential detection of adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) and adenosine phosphates (APs) (ATP, ADP, and AMP) from other nucleotides. The simple detection and quantification of cAMP in human blood cells and in other samples based on the ‘turn on’ fluorescence properties of this chemosensor through colorimetry or fluorometry makes it unique for probable application in high throughput screening.

2011
A pentanuclear M(5)L(6) coordination cage is self-assembled in solution from a rigid linear heteroditopic phen-tpy ligand and an iron (II) salt.
Organic chelate-free and azido-rich metal clusters and coordination polymers from the use of Me3SiN3: a new synthetic route to complexes with beautif…
2019
In this Feature Article, we highlight the feasibility of a new, recently developed approach towards the synthesis of high-spin molecules and single-molecule magnets (SMMs). The key to the preparation of such molecular compounds is the organic azide precursor Me3SiN3, which fosters the formation of 3d-metal azido clusters and coordination polymers without requiring the assistance of any organic chelating/bridging group. All the isolated compounds contain metallic cores which are surrounded by end-on bridging N3− groups. Consequently, the reported molecular materials exhibit ferromagnetic exchange interactions between the spin carriers, resulting in the stabilization of the maximum possible s…
