This study investigates a novel hybrid configuration of an osmotic membrane bioreactor-clarifier (OMBRC) to achieve the simultaneous reduction of salt accumulation and membrane fouling. Compared with the conventional OMBR, the OMBRC demonstrated 14 t...
The in vitro-in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE) approach for predicting total plasma clearance (CL) has been widely used to rank order compounds early in discovery. More recently, a computational machine learning approach utilizing physicochemical descrip...
Biohybrid actuators have the potential to overcome the limitations of traditional actuators employed in robotics, thanks to the unique features of living contractile muscle cells, which can be used to power artificial elements. This paper describes a...
Osmotic Membrane Bioreactor (OMBR) is an emerging technology for wastewater treatment with membrane fouling as a major challenge. This study aims to develop Adaptive Network-based Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) mod...
