Distributed Multi-Target Search and Surveillance Mission Planning for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in Uncertain Environments

In this paper, a distributed, autonomous, cooperative mission-planning (DACMP) approach was proposed to focus on the problem of the real-time cooperative searching and surveillance of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (multi-UAVs) with threats in uncertain and highly dynamic environments.To deal with this problem, a time-varying probabilistic grid

Characterization of the Biodistribution of a Silica Vesicle Nanovaccine Carrying a Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus Protective Antigen With in vivo Live Animal Imaging

Development of veterinary subunit vaccines comes with a spectrum of challenges, such as the choice of adjuvant, antigen delivery vehicle, and optimization of dosing strategy.Over the years, our laboratory has largely focused on investigating silica vesicles (SVs) for developing effective veterinary vaccines for multiple targets.Rhipicephalus microp

Study Hypoxic Response under Cyclic Oxygen Gradients Generated in Microfluidic Devices Using Real-Time Fluorescence Imaging

Oxygen plays important roles in regulating various biological activities under physiological and pathological conditions.However, the response of cells facing temporal variation in oxygen microenvironments has seldom been studied due to technical limitations.In this paper, an integrated approach to studying hypoxic response under cyclic oxygen grad
