The Arizona Ring Experiments Dataset (ARED)
(2018)
Naturalistic driving data from a series of experiments to understand the development of phantom traffic jams.
Delivery of Nanoparticles to Brain Metastases of Breast Cancer Using a Cellular Trojan Horse
(Springer, 2012-12)
As systemic cancer therapies improve and are able to control metastatic disease outside the central nervous system, the brain is increasingly the first site of relapse. The blood–brain barrier (BBB) represents a major ...
Thermal block of action potentials is primarily due to voltage-dependent potassium currents: a modeling study
(Journal of Neural Engineering, 2019-06)
Objective. Thermal block of action potential conduction using infrared lasers is a new modality for manipulating neural activity. It could be used for analysis of the nervous system and for therapeutic applications. We ...
Quantitative oxygen atom measurements in lean, premixed, H2 tubular flames
(Elsevier, 2021)
Quantitative O-atom profiles are measured for the first time in tubular flames and used to assess the
performance of chemical kinetic mechanisms in tubular flame simulations. Atomic oxygen is measured via
femtosecond, ...
Cold exposure induces dynamic, heterogeneous alterations in human brown adipose tissue lipid content
(Scientific Reports, 2019-09-19)
Brown adipose tissue undergoes a dynamic, heterogeneous response to cold exposure that can include the simultaneous synthesis, uptake, and oxidation of fatty acids. The purpose of this work was to quantify these changes ...
Loss and Damage Estimation for Extreme Weather Events: State of the Practice
(Sustainability, 2019-08)
Extreme weather, climate-induced events that are episodic (e.g., hurricane, heatwave) or chronic (e.g., sea-level rise, temperature change) in nature, is occurring with increasing frequency and severity. This places a ...
Effects of Prolonged Head-Down Bed Rest on Cardiac and Vascular Baroreceptor Modulation and Orthostatic Tolerance in Healthy Individuals
(Frontiers in Pyhsiology, 2019-08-23)
Orthostatic intolerance commonly occurs after prolonged bed rest, thus increasing the risk of syncope and falls. Baroreflex-mediated adjustments of heart rate and sympathetic vasomotor activity (muscle sympathetic nerve ...
Engineered models to parse apart the metastatic cascade
(NPJ Precision Oncology, 2019-08-21)
While considerable progress has been made in studying genetic and cellular aspects of metastasis with in vitro cell culture and in vivo animal models, the driving mechanisms of each step of metastasis are still relatively ...
Electrically defined topological interface states of graphene surface plasmons based on a gate-tunable quantum Bragg grating
(Nanophotonics, 2019-08)
A periodic metagate is designed on top of a boron nitride-graphene heterostructure to modulate the local carrier density distribution on the monolayer graphene. This causes the bandgaps of graphene surface plasmon polaritons ...
Approximate Loop Unrolling
(CF '19 - PROCEEDINGS OF THE 16TH ACM INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON COMPUTING FRONTIERS, 2019-04-30)
We introduce Approximate Unrolling, a compiler loop optimization that reduces execution time and energy consumption, exploiting code regions that can endure some approximation and still produce acceptable results. Specifically, ...
