Tape automated bonding--product and process ramp-up
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1990) -
Targeted magnetic nanoparticles for remote manipulation of protein aggregation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)Local heat delivered by magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) selectively attached to their target proteins can be used to manipulate and break up toxic or obstructive aggregates. We applied this magnetic hyperthermia treatment ... -
TCAQ-based polymer for electrochemically mediated separations
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)Redox-mediated separation systems offer the potential to efficiently desalinate water and to purify contaminated waste streams, among other health and environmental applications. A TCAQ-based polymer, unique for its ... -
A technical and economic analysis of structural composite use in automotive body-in-white applications
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998) -
A technical and economic analysis of structural composite use in automotive body-in-white applications
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)Alternative materials technologies promise increased design flexibility, improved damage resistance and lighter weight (among others) over the steel designs that are currently in production. To understand why such features ... -
A technical and economic evaluation of novel pH-responsive core-shell nanoparticles : delivering innovation from laboratory to market
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Many potentially powerful therapeutic strategies for the treatment of disease require the delivery of drugs into the cytosolic or nuclear compartments of cells. Members of the Irvine laboratory have developed a novel ... -
Technical and economic feasibility of a high-temperature self-assembling battery
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)A conceptual high-temperature battery system for large-scale grid power applications was proposed, described, and evaluated. Unlike conventional battery technologies whose maximum current rate is constrained by at least ... -
A technical and marketing analysis of nanocrystalline Ni-W coating for oil and gas industry applications
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Nanocrystalline nickel-tungsten is a new metallic coating technology developed at MIT in the laboratory of Professor Christopher Schuh in 2005. The new coating technology utilizes a special electrodeposition process to ... -

Technical cost modeling of plastics fabrication processes
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1987) -
A technical evaluation of a novel cell-surface cytokine detection technology
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)Hall thrusters have become a tempting alternative to traditional chemical propulsion systems due to the great mass savings they provide through high specific impulses. However, a major stumbling block to their widespread ... -
Technical, economic, and clinical challenges to the development of new biomaterials-based vaccines
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Research into novel vaccine methods is becoming increasingly important for the potential treatment of widespread diseases such as cancer, HIV, and malaria. Members of the Irvine laboratory have developed a hydrogel and ... -
Techno-economical evaluation of intra-datacenter optical transceiver designs
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)The evolution of data center network interconnects is based: at the component level, on cost, power, and bandwidth density; and at the system level, on cost, unit count, footprint, and implementation time. The decision for ... -
Technological and economic comparison of battery technologies for U.S.A electric grid stabilization applications
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Energy storage can provide many benefits to the electric grid of the United States of America. With recent pushes to stabilize renewable energy and implement a Smart Grid, battery technology can play a pivotal role in the ... -
Technological assessment and evaluation of high power batteries and their commercial values
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Lithium Ion (Li-ion) battery technology has the potential to compete with the more matured Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery technology in the Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) energy storage market as it has higher specific ... -
