Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImplementation of Computer Aided Diagnosis System Based on Parallel Approach of Ant Based Medical Image SegmentationJayabalan Jaya, Keppanagowder ThanushkodiProblem statement: The aim of this study is to develop Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) system for the detection of brain tumor by using parallel implementation of ACO system for medical image segmentation applications due to the rapid execution for obtaining and extracting the Region of Interest (ROI) from the images for diagnostic purposes in medical field. Approach: For ROI segmentation, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 8,130 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiomechanically Inspired Machines, Driven by Muscle Like Acting NiTi AlloysAntonio Apicella, Raffaella Aversa, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuThe Shape of the Memory Alloy (SMA) is a very promising class of metallic materials with interesting non-linear properties such as Pseudo-Elasticity (PE), memory (MEM) and damping capacity due to high mechanical hysteresis and internal friction. Research shows a bioinventory approach to Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) design, a class of intelligent materials capable of reacting to a pulse (thermal for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 23 May 2018 · 8,279 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiomechanically Inspired Shape Memory Effect Machines Driven by Muscle like Acting NiTi AlloysRaffaella Aversa, Francesco Tamburrino, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu et al.The research shows a bioinspired approach to be adopted to design of systems based on Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs), a class of Smart Materials that has in common with muscles the capability to react to an impulse (thermal for SMAs) with a contraction. The biomechanically inspired machine that is discussed in the paper refers to the antagonistic muscles pairs, which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 24 Nov 2016 · 9,109 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHormesis and Exercise: How the Cell Copes with Oxidative StressLi Li Ji, Zsolt Radak, Sataro GotoContraction-induced production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species has been shown to cause oxidative stress to skeletal muscle, heart and other organs. As an adaptive response, muscle antioxidant defense systems are upregulated in response to exercise to restore intracellular prooxidantantioxidant homeostasis. Thus, both young and old animals and humans involved in regular exercise have shown reduced oxidative damage during acute … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,817 accessesView PDF Cite
