Carbon Dioxide Solubility in Phosphonium-, Ammonium-, Sulfonyl-, and Pyrrolidinium-Based Ionic Liquids and their Mixtures at Moderate Pressures up to 10 bar
(
American Chemical Society
, 2017 , Article)
Carbon dioxide solubility in four ionic liquids (ILs) of different families with different cationic-anionic groups (tributylmethylphosphonium formate, butyltrimethylammonium bis(trifluoromethyl sulfonyl) imide, ...
A semi-analytical beam model for the vibration of railway tracks
(
Academic Press
, 2017 , Article)
The high frequency dynamic behaviour of railway tracks, in both vertical and lateral directions, strongly affects the generation of rolling noise as well as other phenomena such as rail corrugation. An improved semi-analytical ...
Estimating carbon dynamics in an intact lowland mixed dipterocarp forest using a forest carbon model
(
MDPI AG
, 2017 , Article)
Intact dipterocarp forests in Asia act as crucial carbon (C) reservoirs, and it is therefore important to investigate the C dynamics in these forests. We estimated C dynamics, together with net ecosystem production (NEP), ...
Describing student performance: a comparison among clinical preceptors across cultural contexts
(
Blackwell Publishing Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Context: Health professional student evaluation during experiential training is notably subjective and assessor judgements may be affected by socio-cultural influences. Objectives: This study sought to explore how clinical ...
On the detection of Kernel-level rootkits using hardware performance counters
(
Association for Computing Machinery, Inc
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Recent work has investigated the use of hardware perfor- mance counters (HPCs) for the detection of malware run- ning on a system. These works gather traces of HPCs for a variety of applications (both malicious and ...
The psychometric properties of an Arabic version of the Personality Inventory for DSM-5 (PID-5) across three Arabic-speaking Middle Eastern countries
(
Routledge
, 2017 , Article)
The nature and extent of the influence of culture on psychopathology have long been studied, with a central emphasis on whether abnormal behavior is etic (universalized) or emic (cultural based). This study aimed to examine ...
A ciphertext-policy attribute-based encryption scheme with optimized ciphertext size and fast decryption
(
Association for Computing Machinery, Inc
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
We address the problem of ciphertext-policy attribute-based encryption with fine access control, a cryptographic primitive which has many concrete application scenarios such as Pay-TV, e-Health, Cloud Storage and so on. ...
Nonexplosive Deconstruction of Steel Girder Highway Bridges
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2017 , Article)
While the transportation system of the United States rapidly ages and expands, there is increasing demand for the demolition, replacement, modification, or rehabilitation of existing bridges; all of these actions require ...
New insights on estimating pore size distribution of latex particles: Statistical mechanics approach and modeling
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
New statistical mechanics approach for pore size distribution applied in wide the relative pressure range is proposed. The new proposed model was applied to nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms at 77 K onto five ...
Low-quality facial biometric verification via dictionary-based random pooling
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
In the past decade, visual surveillance has emerged as an effective tool in public security applications. Due to the technical limitations of both surveillance cameras and transmission speed, videos collected from surveillance ...
