The permanent attachment of Myxococcus xanthus V-25 and M.xanthus 422 to the hydrophobic and hydrophilic surface was studied.The strains attached mostly to the hydrophobic surface.Protease and chloramphenicol did not promote the cells to detach from both surfaces, but sodium periodate did.This suggests that exopolysaccharide may play a role in thei
Optimal capacitor placement in northern region of Bangladesh transmission network for voltage profile improvement
This paper solves the problem of optimal placement of shunt capacitors in the northern region of Bangladesh transmission network.During network augmentation event like very high inductive reactive load condition, the weakened voltage profile of the buses can be compensated by optimum allocation of the capacitor banks.In this regard, the aim of this
Growing recyclable and healable piezoelectric composites in 3D printed bioinspired structure for protective wearable sensor
Abstract Bionic multifunctional structural materials that are lightweight, strong, and perceptible have shown great promise in sports, medicine, and aerospace applications.However, smart monitoring devices with integrated mechanical protection and piezoelectric induction are limited.Herein, we report a strategy to grow the recyclable and healable p
