Innovative approach of nomography application into an engineering educational context. by Trevor Blight, Pedro Martínez-Pagán, Leif Roschier, Daniel Boulet, Lorena Yepes-Bellver, Víctor Yepes

“…In this way, some nomograms generated by Nomogen have been tested on undergraduate and graduate students from different engineering backgrounds. Subsequently, a Likert scale survey was conducted, which showed that students had a great and renewed interest in nomography and found it helpful in the engineering learning process. …”

Predictive modeling and optimization of noise emissions in a palm oil methyl ester-fueled diesel engine using response surface methodology and artificial neural network integrated... by J.M. Zikri, M.S.M. Sani, M.F.F.A. Rashid, J. Muriban, G.S. Prayogo

“…This research examines the predictive performance of two modeling techniques—Response Surface Methodology (RSM) and an Artificial Neural Network enhanced by a Genetic Algorithm (ANN-GA)—in relation to noise emission levels from a single-cylinder diesel engine running on palm oil methyl ester (POME). By employing different engine speeds and loads within the low to high range, noise emissions were recorded from multiple engine components to evaluate the performance of each predictive model. …”

Rescue of common and rare exon 2 skipping variants of the GAA gene using modified U1 snRNA by Paolo Peruzzo, Natascha Bergamin, Martina Bon, Sara Cappelli, Alessandra Longo, Elisa Goina, Cristiana Stuani, Emanuele Buratti, Andrea Dardis

“…Methods A set of constructs expressing 5 different engineered U1 snRNAs was generated. A functional splicing assay using a GAA hybrid minigene carrying different variants known to affect GAA exon 2 splicing was used to test the effect of engineered U1 snRNAs on exon 2 inclusion. …”
