This modeling study examines how a noisy spiking neural network detects a weak applied electric field using an Izhikevich neuron framework with excitatory/inhibitory neurons and conduction delays. The authors report stochastic resonance driven by white noise that enhances detectability, and that this effect largely…

This conference paper describes a peri-implantitis therapy using radio frequency electric current and presents numerical simulations alongside referenced clinical evidence. The abstract reports 81% successful treatment across 66 implants in 46 patients. FEM modeling suggests current preferentially concentrates in…

This computational study used finite element modeling to estimate the electric field distribution in the brain during tDCS for two electrode montages targeting the left DLPFC. It systematically varied isotropic tissue conductivity profiles to assess sensitivity of predicted E-field magnitude and components in the…

This study reports experimental measurements and numerical modeling of electric and magnetic fields near a high voltage substation in Annaba, Algeria. Field intensities were measured at multiple heights intended to correspond to sensitive human body regions and were validated using finite element simulations. The…

This study used numerical modeling with a human body model to evaluate how the placement of a single body-worn personal exposimeter affects RF electric-field measurements in the 98–2450 MHz range. Across 256 simulated exposure scenarios, the body substantially altered measured values compared with the unperturbed…

This pre/post study measured circulating microRNA profiles in 30 atrial fibrillation patients before and 3 months after radiofrequency ablation, comparing results with 10 healthy controls. The authors report that numerous miRNAs differed from controls at baseline and shifted after ablation, with several highlighted…

This engineering/food science study measured dielectric constant (ε'), dielectric loss factor (ε″), and power penetration depth in beef and gravy preparations across 27–1,800 MHz and 20–130 °C. The dielectric properties generally decreased with increasing frequency, and penetration depth decreased with increasing…

This engineering study investigates a plasmonic nanostructure composed of a spherical metallic nanoshell with a small metallic nanoparticle (“nanoknob”) on its surface. It reports tunable plasmon resonance behavior driven by nanoshell properties and localized/enhanced electromagnetic fields near the nanoknob under…

This study measured atmospheric VOCs at the Gongga Mountain base station using weekly samples collected in 2007 and analyzed by preconcentration plus GC-MS. It reports mean concentrations of TVOCs and NMHCs, describes VOC composition, and uses PCA-based receptor modeling to attribute sources. The authors report…

This experimental and modeling study examined pulsed electric field (PEF) permeabilization in several fruit and vegetable tissues at 293 K using 1000 μs pulses and field strengths of 400 and 1000 V·cm(-1). While electroporation theory predicts greater damage in tissues with larger cells, the authors report this…

This modeling study applies uniform electric fields parallel and normal to 180° ferroelectric domain walls in PbTiO3 and computes equilibrium structures using anharmonic lattice statics. The authors report that electric fields can substantially increase domain wall thickness and identify a critical field Ec above…

This paper presents a mesoscopic transport modeling framework (NEGF plus a real-space π-orbital model) to study how a uniform perpendicular magnetic field affects electronic transport in armchair graphene nanoribbons. The authors report width-dependent equilibrium current profiles and edge-localized transport under…

This theoretical/engineering study models arrays of plasmonic core-shell nano-radiators positioned over layered substrates using a Green's function dipole approach. The model is validated with full-wave FDTD simulations. The authors report that nanoparticle arraying and multilayer substrate design can be used to…

This paper models extravascular MRI signal decay (R2/R2*) as a function of blood oxygenation, vessel geometry, and magnetic field strength up to 9.4 T using Monte Carlo diffusion simulations. It reports different vessel-size dependencies for Hahn-spin-echo versus gradient-recalled-echo relaxation across field…
