Confined oil in beaded polymeric fibers with advanced thermoregulating properties
RPI ID: 2019-033-201, 2019-033-601 Innovation Summary: A coaxial wet-wet electrospinning process enables the creation of core-shell microfibers, where the core contains a phase-change material (PCM) like coconut oil and the shell is composed of cellulose. The fibers are extruded into an ethanol-water coagulation bath, forming a beaded morphology with...

Bile Acids and Other Agents that Modulate the Gut Microbiome for the Treatment of Liver Cancer
Abstract: Primary liver tumors and secondary hepatic malignancies are among the leading causes of cancer-related deaths. Liver metastases account for 95% of all hepatic cancers, and the liver is the most common site for organ metastasis in the body. The gut microbiome serves an important role in antitumor immunity regulating the efficacy of chemo- and...

PMU-Embedded Analytics for Online Event Detection and Classification in Power Grids
The energy requirement of the world is increasing exponentially every year. With the power demand sites concentrated in the region with the highest population density, energy production sites must be located remotely. This isolation requires lengthy and complicated grids to be designed and manufactured to transmit power over long distances. Grid failures...
