Centrosomes are major microtubule-organizing centers in eukaryotic cells and play a critical role in embryonic development and asymmetric cell division. Centrosomes comprise a pair of centrioles surrounded by an amorphous proteinaceous meshwork called the pericentriolar material (PCM). Robust deposition of PCM around the centrioles is essential for a centrosome to achieve full microtubule nucle...

In this paper an experimental investigation on the thermal storage capacity for a typical composite mixture of paraffinGraphiteCu PCM composite has been studied. Paraffin wax was used as the base phase change material (PCM) and the paraffin has been mixed with Cu turnings in different ratios 10, 50, 70 and 90 weight percentages and considered as a composite. The thermal charge and discharge cap...

Design parameters Abstract In rhis paper: we propose a Soft lP Generator which can add or remove PCM Codec modules arbitrarily. It can be applied ro PCM Codec IP designs rhat need to change their related modules corresponding to different working environments. It also can help us to easily manage our Soft IP modules, produce optimized modules, and remove unnecessary modules, in order ro reduce ...

Salt hydrates have issues of supercooling when they are utilized as phase change materials (PCMs). In this research, a new method was adopted to prepare a salt hydrate PCM (based on a mixture of calcium chloride dihydrate and calcium chloride anhydrous) as a novel PCM system to reduce the supercooling phenomenon existing in CaCl₂·6H₂O. Six samples with different compositions of CaCl₂ were prepa...

This paper initially describes the relational counterpart of possibilistic c-means (PCM) algorithm, called relational PCM (or RPCM). RPCM is then improved to better handle arbitrary dissimilarity data. First, a re-scaling of the PCM membership function is proposed in order to obtain zero membership values when the distance to prototype equals the maximum value allowed in bounded dissimilarity m...

Protein carboxy-O-methyltransferase (PCM) activity was determined in subcellular fractions prepared from C-1300 neuroblastoma tumors following transplantation and growth in male A/J mice. Fractions were obtained by differential centrifugation, and PCM activity was determined in all fractions in the presence (+gel) and absence (-gel) of an exogenous substrate, gelatin. Sixty % of the PCM activit...

New equations are derived and implemented for efficient and accurate computation of solvation energy derivatives for the conductor-like polarizable continuum model (C-PCM) and the isotropic integral equation formalism polarizable continuum model (IEF-PCM). Two new molecular surface tessellation procedures GEPOL-RT and GEPOL-AS that generate near continuous potential energy surfaces are proposed...

The thermal safety problem of lithium-ion batteries (LIB) in use requires an excellent management system to preserve it. In the paper, expansion flame-retardant composed APP and CFA kaolinite is used enhance property phase change materials (PCM). performances PCM their LIB were studied. results indicate that can improve long-term thermostability PCM. addition flame retardant make reach V0 level...

The fuzzy c-means (FCM) has been a well-known algorithm in machine learning/data mining area as a clustering algorithm. It can also be used for image segmentation, but the algorithm is not robust to noise. The possibilistic c-means (PCM) algorithm was proposed to overcome such a problem. However, the performance of PCM is too sensitive to the initialization of cluster centers, and often deterio...
