Smart nanomicelles with bacterial infection-responsive disassembly for selective antimicrobial applications by Pranantyo, Dicky, Kang, En-Tang, Chan-Park, Mary B.

“…The bacterial infection sites in the body usually show localized acidity as a result of the combined actions of bacterial metabolism and host immune response, and the pH can decrease to as low as 5.5. …”

Parallel and distributed algorithms for computational fluid flow simulations by Vu, Thanh Tung

“…This work proposes a new parallel approach for fluid flow simulations using the Partitioned Global Address Space (PGAS) architecture with Unified Parallel C (UPC) as the implementation solution. The new UPC model combines the benefits of the locality in shared memory architecture of OpenMP and data layout control of MPI. …”
