    Abstract: A power and/or electricity generating source and/or component that is TENG-based, and that may be configured as an assembly and/or component for powering one or more electronic devices, is disclosed, a case, carrier or other carrying container, for example a case for a cell phone, ipad, electronic tablet, personal computer, or any similar device, that provides an electricity source to power the cell phone, ipad, electronic tablet, is disclosed. The energy generating carriers and/or containers and configurations thereof, also provide an electricity energy storage source, such as a capacitor. This electronic energy storage source may be incorporated within an electronic device itself, or may be incorporated within the case and/or covering. A bridge rectifier is also provided in some embodiments of the case. Upon walking or touching a surface of an electronic device, the power generating source will harness mechanical energy, and provide for the generation of electricity with the one or more TENG components (TESTEC) that comprise the energy generating unit. Metal particles (silver, copper, etc. nanoparticles) incorporated within and/or on polymeric layers and/or a film of the carrier and/or container assembly, are also provided, and provide for enhanced energy generating capacity of the energy generating and storage components described.

    Abstract: The present disclosure includes methods, apparatuses, and systems for three-dimensional phenotyping and physiologic characterization of brain lesions and tissue encompassing one or more enlarged boundaries surrounding the brain lesion to study the metabolic and physiologic profiles from tissue within and around lesions and their impacts on lesion shape and surface texture. The non-invasive biomarker blood-oxygen their impacts on lesion shape and surface texture. The non-invasive biomarker blood-oxygen-level-dependant (BOLD) slope was used to metabolically characterize lesions. Metabolically active lesions with more intact tissue and myelin architecture have more symmetrical shapes and more complex surface textures compared to metabolically inactive lesions with less intact tissue and myelin architecture. The association of lesions' shapes and surface features with their metabolic signatures aid in the translation of MRI data to clinical management by providing information related to metabolic activity, lesion age, and risk for disease reactivation and self-repair.
