Analysis of volatile organic compounds released from the decay of surrogate human models simulating victims of collapsed buildings by thermal desorption-comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography-time of flight mass spectrometry
(2015)
Field experiments were devised to mimic the entrapment conditions under the rubble of collapsed buildings aiming to investigate the evolution of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) during the early dead body decomposition ...
A study of the infrared absorption spectra of thin amorphous films of molybdenum trioxide
(1989)
The spectra of thin amorphous films of MoO3 deposited by vacuum evaporation have been studied within the spectral range 4000-400 cm-1 by the Fourier transform infrared technique. Some samples in the thickness range 100 to ...
Investigation of substituent effect of 1-(3,3-diphenylpropyl)-piperidinyl phenylacetamides on CCR5 binding affinity using QSAR and virtual screening techniques
(2006)
A linear quantitative-structure activity relationship model is developed in this work using Multiple Linear Regression Analysis as applied to a series of 51 1-(3,3-diphenylpropyl)-piperidinyl phenylacetamides derivatives ...
Enterprise COllaboration and INteroperability (COIN) platform: Two case studies in the marine shipping domain
(2012)
Enterprise Collaboration and Enterprise Interoperability are two key aspects of networked enterprises, which proceed along parallel tracks with rare opportunities to convene, support and influence each other. To resolve ...
A model-driven framework for developing web service oriented applications
(2012)
The advancements made in terms of the capabilities of mobile devices have shifted the interest of service engineering towards frameworks that are able to deliver applications rapidly and efficiently. The development of ...
Prediction of intrinsic viscosity in polymer-solvent combinations using a QSPR model
(2006)
In this work, a linear quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) model is presented for the prediction of intrinsic viscosity in polymer solutions. The model was produced by using the multiple linear regression ...
Trace detection of endogenous human volatile organic compounds for search, rescue and emergency applications
(2015)
Since Pauling's paper in the 1970s, interest has increased in volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released from different bio-fluids, such as blood and urine. A number of VOCs reflect internal biochemical pathways occurring ...
Physiology and biochemistry of human subjects during entrapment
(2013)
A classification of various categories of entrapped people under the ruins of collapsed buildings after earthquakes, technical failures or explosions is proposed. Type and degree of injury at the moment of building collapse ...
Amphiphilic model conetworks based on cross-linked star copolymers of benzyl methacrylate and 2-(dimenthylamino)ethyl methacrylate: Synthesis, characterization, and DNA adsorption studies
(2006)
Six amphiphilic model conetworks of a new structure, that of cross-linked "in-out" star copolymers, were synthesized by the group transfer polymerization (GTP) of the hydrophobic monomer benzyl methacrylate (BzMA) and the ...
Computing and Communications for the Software-Defined Metamaterial Paradigm: A Context Analysis
(2017)
Metamaterials are artificial structures that have recently enabled the realization of novel electromagnetic components with engineered and even unnatural functionalities. Existing metamaterials are specifically designed ...
