Acoustic absorption analysis and modeling of asphalt mixtures
(
ASTM International
, 2019 , Article)
Highway traffic noise is a major environmental issue all over the world. This is particularly annoying to residents who live nearby major transportation corridors. Noise pollution adversely affects the quality of their ...
Can uncertainty indices predict Bitcoin prices? A revisited analysis using partial and multivariate wavelet approaches
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2019 , Article)
This paper uses bivariate and multivariate wavelet approaches to revisit the co-movements between the Volatility Uncertainty Index (VIX) and Bitcoin (BTC). This is achieved by accounting for the impacts of the three major ...
Investigation of Proton Diffusion Coefficient for PbO2 Prepared from Intermediate Oxides
(
Pleiades Publishing
, 2019 , Article)
Lead dioxide was extracted from used batteries, and used to synthesize the following intermediate oxides by heating at different temperatures: Pb12O19, Pb12O17, and Pb3O4. Each of the prepared intermediate oxide was subject ...
A scrutiny of antibacterial activity of pure and iodine doped ZnO thin films synthesized by mSILAR method
(
American Institute of Physics Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Iodine doped zinc oxide (I-ZnO) thin films were synthesized by microwave assisted successive ionic layer adsorption (mSILAR) method. The structural characteristics of pure ZnO and I-ZnO thin films were carried out by powder ...
Understanding the Origin of the Ultrahigh Rate Performance of a SiO2-Modified LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 Cathode for Lithium-Ion Batteries
(
American Chemical Society
, 2019 , Article)
LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 (LNMO) is one of the most promising cathode materials for next-generation lithium-ion batteries for rapid charging–discharging applications. The surfaces of LNMO samples are coated with different amounts ...
Thermochemical CO2 splitting using a sol‐gel–synthesized Mg‐ferrite–based redox system
(
John Wiley and Sons Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
The synthesis, characterization, and application of the MgxFe3−xO4 (MF) redox materials towards conversion of CO2 via thermochemical redox reactions are reported. Sol‐gel method was utilized for the synthesis of MF materials. ...
Chemically synthesized carbon nanorods with dual polarized emission
(
American Chemical Society
, 2019 , Article)
We realized the synthesis of carbon nanorods—monodisperse colloidal particles with a length of 50 nm and a width of 20 nm—which can be considered an addition to the family of light-emitting carbon-based nanostructures. ...
The purification and identification of human blood serum proteins with affinity to the antitumor active RL2 lactaptin using magnetic microparticles
(
John Wiley and Sons Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
The cytopoxic effect of RL2 lactaptin (the recombinant analog of proteolytic fragment of human kappa‐casein) toward tumor cells in vitro and in vivo presents it as a novel promising antitumor drug. The binding of any drug ...
Effects of Turbulence Intensity and Biogas Composition on the Localized Forced Ignition of Turbulent Mixing Layers
(
Taylor and Francis Inc.
, 2019 , Article)
Three-dimensional compressible Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) have been used to investigate the localized forced ignition of statistically planar mixing layers of biogas/air mixtures for different levels of turbulence ...
New characteristics of optimal solutions for the two-machine flowshop problem with unlimited buffers
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2019 , Article)
The two-machine flowshop problem with unlimited buffers with the objective of minimising the makespan (F2||Cmax) is addressed. Johnson’s algorithm finds optimal solutions (permutations) to this problem, but are not necessarily ...
