Background and Objectives
Applying pathogen reduction technologies (PRT) to platelets can extend their shelf life from 5 to 7 days, but there have been few systematic studies of the repercussions of such technologies on outdate rates.
Material and Methods
The benefits in terms of outdate rates of applying PRT to platelets are studied via a mathematical simulation. Specifically, statistical methods...
Micro cantilever beams have been intensively used in sensing applications including to scanning profiles and surfaces where there resolution and imaging speed are critical. Force resolution is related to the Q-factor. When the micro-cantilever operates in air with small separation gaps, the Q-factor is even more reduced due to the squeeze-film damping effect. Thus, the optimization of the configuration...
Polyphase codes are widely used in radar systems as a pulse compression approach due to the fact that they produce lower side-lobes in the compressed signal than other methods. Unfortunately, the efficient design of such codes comprises by itself a non-linear n-dimensional NP-hard optimization problem, which has been so far tackled by using evolutionary techniques. In this paper we present a novel...
