Carter, A. O., and Morley R. (1969). Brit. J. industr. Med., 26, 217-223. Electric current flow through human skin at power frequency voltages. Alternating power voltages were applied to small pieces of living skin. Current and voltage were recorded continuously using voltages from 25 V to 250 V. At the lower voltages the skin appeared unaffected, but rapid destruction occurred at the higher vo...

Introduction: In radiotherapy treatment planning system (TPS), basic input is the data from computed tomography (CT) scan, which takes into account the effect of inhomogeneities in dose calculations. Measurement of CT numbers may be affected by scanner-specific parameters. Therefore, it is important to verify the effect of different CT scanning protocols on Hounsfield unit (HU) and its impact o...

Quantum transport properties of pure and functioned infinite lead-connection region-lead systembased on the zigzag graphene nanoribbon (2-zGNR) have been investigated. In this work the effectof the doping functionalization on the quantum transport of the 2-zGNR has been computationallystudied. Also, the effect of the imposed gate voltages (-3.0, 0.0 and +3.0 V) and bias voltages 0.0 to2.0 V hav...

To apply electrical impedance tomography (EIT) for heterogeneous two-phase flow measurement, reference voltages have to be measured, which requires the entire pipeline filled with a homogeneous medium. Such process is often time-consuming, costly and infeasible in some cases. Reference acquired initially could not used later, because of conductivity change caused by temperature or chemical reac...

BACKGROUND In a previous in vitro study using saline medium, the authors showed that certain drugs changed the voltages of lithium dilution cardiac output (LiDCO) sensors and also influenced their accuracy in measuring lithium concentrations. These two parameters correlated and so we examined whether such drug-sensor interaction exists when LiDCO sensor was exposed to xylazine in blood. METHO...

Recent experiments have shown that the current-voltage characteristics (I-V) of BPDN-DT (bipyridyl-dinitro oligophenylene-ethynylene dithiol) can be switched in a very controlled manner between "on" and "off" traces by applying a pulse in a bias voltage, V(bias). Here, the polaron formation energies are calculated to check a frequently held belief, namely, that the polaron formation can explain...
