Metal-Doped HZSM-5 Zeolite Catalysts for Catalytic Cracking of Raw Bio-Oil: Exploring Activity toward Value-Added Products
(MDPI, 2023-08-10)
Catalytic cracking of bio-oil, conducted at atmospheric pressure without hydrogen supply, is a cost-effective and versatile approach for the targeted synthesis of biofuels and platform chemicals. The conversion of raw ...
HPC Platform for Railway Safety-Critical Functionalities Based on Artificial Intelligence
(MDPI, 2023-08-07)
The automation of railroad operations is a rapidly growing industry. In 2023, a new European standard for the automated Grade of Automation (GoA) 2 over European Train Control System (ETCS) driving is anticipated. Meanwhile, ...
Lignin-Derivative Ionic Liquids as Corrosion Inhibitors
(MDPI, 2023-07-21)
Corrosion is a significant problem that negatively affects a wide range of structures and buildings, resulting in their premature failure, which causes safety hazards and significant economic loss. For this reason, various ...
Impact of Delay on Stochastic Predator–Prey Models
(MDPI, 2023-06-12)
Ordinary differential equations (ODE) have long been an important tool for modelling and understanding the dynamics of many real systems. However, mathematical modelling in several areas of the life sciences requires the ...
Hyperstability of Linear Feed-Forward Time-Invariant Systems Subject to Internal and External Point Delays and Impulsive Nonlinear Time-Varying Feedback Controls
(MDPI, 2023-07-07)
This paper investigates the asymptotic hyperstability of a single-input–single-output closed-loop system whose controlled plant is time-invariant and possesses a strongly strictly positive real transfer function that is ...
Stability of Monoclonal Antibodies as Solid Formulation for Auto-Injectors: A Pilot Study
(MDPI, 2023-07-30)
Drug adherence is a significant medical issue, often responsible for sub-optimal outcomes during the treatment of chronic diseases such as rheumatoid or psoriatic arthritis. Monoclonal antibodies (which are exclusively ...
