Microdosimetry plays a critical role in particle therapy by quantifying energy deposition within microscopic domains to assess biological effects. This study evaluates the influence of different microdosimetric functions (MFs) and domain geometries (...

Ion radiotherapy requires accurate relative biological effectiveness (RBE) calculations to account for the markedly different biological effects of ions compared to photons. Microdosimetric RBE models rely on descriptions of the energy deposition at...

Background: Pancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive and lethal cancers. New treatment strategies are highly warranted. Particle radiotherapy could offer a way to overcome the radioresistant nature of pancreatic cancer because of its biologica...

The Microdosimetric Kinetic Model (MKM) to predict the effects of ionizing radiation on cell colonies is studied and reformulated for the case of high-linear energy transfer (LET) radiations with a low dose. When the number of radiation events happen...

In mobile edge computing (MEC), it is difficult to recognise an optimum solution that can perform in limited energy by selecting the best communication path and components. This research proposed a hybrid model for energy-efficient cluster formation...

The increasing demand for sustainable road infrastructure necessitates alternative materials that enhance soil stabilization while reducing environmental impact. This study investigated the application of organosilane-based nanotechnology to improve...

To improve outcomes in large sarcomas/chordomas treated with CIRT, there has been recent interest in LET optimization. We evaluated 22 pelvic sarcoma/chordoma patients treated with CIRT [large: HD-CTV ≥ 250 cm3 (n = 9), small: HD-CTV < 250 cm3...

To minimize radiation-induced lumbosacral neuropathy (RILSN), we employed sacral-nerve-sparing optimized carbon-ion therapy strategy (SNSo-CIRT) in treating 35 patients with pelvic sarcomas/chordomas. Plans were optimized using Local Effect Model-I (...

Blood viscosity is a crucial element for any computation of flow fields in the vasculature or blood-wetted devices. Although blood is comprised of multiple elements, and its viscosity can vary widely depending on several factors, in practical applica...

This research is based on computing the new wave packets and conserved quantities to the nonlinear low-pass electrical transmission lines (NLETLs) via the group-theoretic method. By using the group-theoretic technique, we analyse the NLETLs and compu...

Proton therapy presents a promising modality for treating left-sided breast cancer due to its unique dose distribution. Helium ions provide increased conformality thanks to a reduced lateral scattering. Consequently, the potential clinical benefit of...
