    • An Analysis of Costs and Health Co-Benefits for a U.S. Power Plant Carbon Standard 

      Buonocore, Jonathan J.; Lambert, Kathleen F.; Burtraw, Dallas; Sekar, Samantha; Driscoll, Charles T. (Public Library of Science, 2016)
      Reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from power plants can have important “co-benefits” for public health by reducing emissions of air pollutants. Here, we examine the costs and health co-benefits, in monetary terms, ...

    • Cationic Peptide Exposure Enhances Pulsed-Electric-Field-Mediated Membrane Disruption 

      Kennedy, Stephen M.; Aiken, Erik J.; Beres, Kaytlyn A.; Hahn, Adam R.; Kamin, Samantha J.; Hagness, Susan C.; Booske, John H.; Murphy, William L. (Public Library of Science, 2014)
      Background: The use of pulsed electric fields (PEFs) to irreversibly electroporate cells is a promising approach for destroying undesirable cells. This approach may gain enhanced applicability if the intensity of the PEF ...

    • Point Charges Optimally Placed to Represent the Multipole Expansion of Charge Distributions 

      Anandakrishnan, Ramu; Baker, Charles; Izadi, Saeed; Onufriev, Alexey V. (Public Library of Science, 2013)
      We propose an approach for approximating electrostatic charge distributions with a small number of point charges to optimally represent the original charge distribution. By construction, the proposed optimal point charge ...
