The psychological and socio-economic implications of digital technologies call for scholarship that engages questions about the nature of human consciousness, the construction of the self and the ethics of technical development.In this article, I outline a framework for an approach called contemplative media studies.This approach incorporates sever
Abstract Nanotechnology has the potential to circumvent several drawbacks of conventional therapeutic formulations.In fact, significant strides have been made towards the application of engineered nanomaterials for the treatment of cancer with high specificity, sensitivity and efficacy.Tailor-made nanomaterials functionalized with specific ligands
Abstract Background Medical endoscope is widely used in clinical practice for the purpose of diagnosis and treatment, occupying around 5% of the medical device market.Evaluating the true service level of medical endoscope is essential and necessary to improve overall performance of medical diagnosis and treatment, and to maintain competitiveness of
Electric power grids are evolving into complex cyber-physical power systems (CPPSs) that integrate advanced information and communication technologies (ICTs) but face increasing cyberspace threats and attacks.This study considers CPPS cyberspace security under distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks and proposes a nonzero-sum game-theoretical
The junction temperature fluctuation ( $Delta ext{T}_{mathrm {j}}$ ) of the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) around the synchronous speed point, deteriorates the reliability of the power converter considerably.Therefore, a lifetime evaluation method for the power converter of DFIG is proposed in this paper.Combining the speed-power curve of t
