We describe a software system that enables the measurement and analysis of tissue engineering scaffold materials from three dimensional images that were
The surface stress associated with the underpotential deposition of bismuth on (111)-textured Au is examined, using the wafer curvature method, in acidic
In situ stress measurements were made during aluminum electrodeposition from AlCl(subscript 3)-EtMeImCl using the waver curvature method. The upd of Al on (111)

We present a detailed study of the potential impact of BGP peering session attacks and the resulting exploitation of Route Flap Damping (RFD) that cause network
Modeling and simulation technology is recognized for facilitating training, reducing production cost, improving product quality, and shortening development time
We begin this expository essay by reviewing with examples what a typical engineer already knows about statistics. We then consider a central question in
Technical variation in whole-genome, single-probe, one-color microarrays has some common properties that are the subject of this paper. One such property, which
The APEX method is a non-iterative, single frame, direct blind deconvolution technique that can sharpen certain kinds of high resolution images in quasi real
