Unstoppable Wallets: Chain-assisted Threshold ECDSA and its Applications by Zyskind, Guy, Yanai, Avishay, Pentland, Alex

“…Then, we leverage that model and consider cases where that 'server' is distributed, introducing the novel concept of unstoppable wallets; hence eliminating any single point of failure. Unstoppable wallets are programmable threshold ECDSA wallets that allow users to co-sign transactions with a confidential smart contract, rather than a singular third-party. …”

Model study of the salt accumulation effect on the membrane performance in osmotic membrane bioreactor by Xiao, De Zhong

“…In this project, a FO model was developed based on internal concentration polarization (ICP) theory, and the experimental results from independent FO tests for both initial flux and continuous flux performance matched the model predictions very well, which verified the model developed and proved the dominant role of ICP in FO’s flux performance. Hence, the mass balance equation of an OsMBR system was coupled with the ICP model to simulation the effects of salt accumulation on the system performance in membrane filtration aspect. …”
