Hybrid thin-films of graphene materials and metallic nanowires for next generation transparent electrodes
(
Optics InfoBase
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
We report advances in the fabrication and characterization of transparent conductive electrodes based on thin-films of metallic nanowires (copper and silver) encapsulated with graphene, graphene oxide, and reduced graphene ...
A low power temperature sensor based on a voltage to time converter cell
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
In this paper we propose a temperature sensor, based on a voltage to time converter cell (VTC). A VTC is frequently employed in time to digital converters for generating a delay that is proportional to the input voltage. ...
A low power oscillator based temperature sensor for RFID applications
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
In this paper we present a temperature sensor based on a ring oscillator. The ring oscillator uses the CMOS thyristor delay element and has an extremely low power consumption of about 47nW at room temperature with a supply ...
A novel resolver converter based on a modified tracking method
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
Resolvers are robust and reliable transducers, working as rotary transformers, and are used for mechanical angle measurement. In the present work, the two stator windings of the resolver are excited with sine and cosine ...
A new fast tracking resolver for mechanical angle measurement
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
The resolver is a mechanical angle and rotational speed transducer that operates as rotary transformer; its two stator windings are excited with sine and cosine AC signals and its rotor winding produces a sinusoidal signal ...
An integrated approach for airline flight selection and timing, fleet assignment, and aircraft routing
(
INFORMS Inst.for Operations Res.and the Management Sciences
, 2013 , Article)
Airline profits critically depend on the nature and efficiency of service they provide and accrue from a complex planning process involving schedule design fleet assignment aircraft routing and crew scheduling which are ...
MIP models for minimizing total tardiness in a two-machine flow shop
(
Palgrave Macmillan Ltd.
, 2013 , Article)
We propose compact mixed-integer programming models for the NP-hard problem of minimizing tardiness in a two-machine flow shop. Also, we propose valid inequalities that aim at tightening the models' representations. We ...
An assignment-based lower bound for a class of two-machine flow shop problems
(2013 , Article)
We present an assignment-based lower bound that is valid for a wide class of two-machine flow shop problems with a regular additive performance criterion. We provide empirical evidence that this new bound consistently ...
A model for enhancing robustness of aircraft and passenger connections
(
Elsevier
, 2013 , Article)
Airlines schedules are often subject to various uncontrollable factors that cause disruptions and delays. These delays not only constitute, for many passengers, the painful part of air travel, but also represent for airlines ...
Enhanced compact models for the connected subgraph problem and for the shortest path problem in digraphs with negative cycles
(2013 , Article)
We investigate the minimum-weight connected subgraph problem. The importance of this problem stems from the fact that it constitutes the backbone of many network design problems having applications in several areas including ...
