    Effects of reactive oxygen species on the physical properties of polypropylene surgical mesh at various concentrations: a model for inflammatory reaction as a cause for mesh embrittlement and failure

    Oxidative degradation by reactive oxygen species (ROS) from inflammation initiates cross-linking, depolymerization, and formation of a quasi-crystalline quality in polypropylene (PP) meshes that cause embritt...

    Conjugated Bubnov-Galerkin Infinite Element for Maxwell Equations

    We propose a (conjugated) Bubnov-Galerkin Infinite Element (IE) discretization for the time-harmonic Maxwell scattering and radiation problems. The element falls into a family of infinite elements satisfying an e...
