    In-situ crosslinking of electrospun gelatin-carbodiimide nanofibers: fabrication, characterization, and modeling of solution parameters

    , Article Chemical Engineering Communications ; Volume 208, Issue 7 , 2021 , Pages 976-992 ; 00986445 (ISSN) Hajiabbas, M ; Alemzadeh, I ; Vossoughi, M ; Shamloo, A ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    This work has focused on in-situ crosslinking of gelatin (G) to produce electrospun scaffold with improved fiber morphology retention and mechanical properties. As per this approach, we prepared G nanofibers through mixing G, 1-ethyl-3-(3 dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) and N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) in the new solvent system. Response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to study the influence of solution parameters on fiber diameter. The morphological structure was examined, and the appropriate level of setting to obtain smooth fibers with a favorable diameter was reported. Results revealed using EDC/NHS for in-situ crosslinking improves the mechanical properties...

    Joint edge detection and motion estimation of cardiac MR image sequence by a phase field method

    , Article Computers in Biology and Medicine ; Volume 40, Issue 1 , 2010 , Pages 21-28 ; 00104825 (ISSN) Eslami, A ; Jahed, M ; Preusser, T ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    In this paper a variational framework for joint segmentation and motion estimation is employed for inspecting heart in Cine MRI sequences. A functional including Mumford-Shah segmentation and optical flow based dense motion estimation is approximated using the phase-field technique. The minimizer of the functional provides an optimum motion field and edge set by considering both spatial and temporal discontinuities. Exploiting calculus of variation principles, multiple partial differential equations associated with the Euler-Lagrange equations of the functional are extracted, first. Next, the finite element method is used to discretize the resulting PDEs for numerical solution. Several...
