Time-resolved photocurrent spectroscopic diagnostics of electrically active defects in AlGaN/GaN High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) structure grown on Si wafers
(
American Scientific Publishers
, 2016 , Article)
Time-resolved photocurrent (TRPC) spectroscopy with a variable-wavelength sub-bandgap light excitation was used to study the dynamics of the decaying photocurrent generated in the heterostructures of the AlGaN/GaN high ...
Sensor Fault Detection, Isolation, and Identification Using Multiple-Model-Based Hybrid Kalman Filter for Gas Turbine Engines
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
In this paper, a novel sensor fault detection, isolation, and identification (FDII) strategy is proposed using the multiple-model (MM) approach. The scheme is based on multiple hybrid Kalman filters (MHKFs), which represents ...
Diversity-multiplexing tradeoff for log-normal fading channels
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
Although there has been a growing interest on the study of diversity-multiplexing tradeoff (DMT), the existing works are mostly restricted to the outcomes reported for Rayleigh, Rician, and Nakagami fading channels. In ...
Removal of emerging pharmaceuticals from wastewater by ozone-based advanced oxidation processes
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
Thin-ply composites are currently receiving specific attention from researchers due to their capabilities to delay matrix cracking. In this paper, the aim is to design a hybrid laminate that contains both thin- and normal ...
An optimization-based heuristic for the machine reassignment problem
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2016 , Article)
We address the machine reassignment problem proposed in the context of the ROADEF/EURO challenge 2012 in partnership with Google. The problem consists in reassigning a set of processes to a set of multiple-resource machines ...
Metronidazole in conjunction with penicillin neither prevents recurrence nor enhances recovery from peritonsillar abscess when compared with penicillin alone: A prospective, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial
(
Oxford University Press
, 2016 , Article)
Objectives
The objectives of this study were to evaluate the efficacy of metronidazole in conjunction with penicillin in preventing the recurrence of peritonsillar abscess (PTA) and to learn whether metronidazole enhances ...
Critical success factors for Lean Six Sigma in SMEs (small and medium enterprises)
(
Emerald Group Publishing Ltd.
, 2016 , Article)
Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to identify and list critical success factors (CSFs) of Lean Six Sigma (LSS) framework affecting and influencing quality, operational and financial performance of small and medium ...
Joint Optimal Placement, Routing, and Flow Assignment in Wireless Sensor Networks for Structural Health Monitoring
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
Sensor node placement optimization has a significant role in wireless sensor networks, especially in structural health monitoring. Since sensor node placement affects the routing, optimization should be Jointly done for ...
Eco-Friendly Electromagnetic Interference Shielding Materials from Flexible Reduced Graphene Oxide Filled Polycaprolactone/Polyaniline Nanocomposites
(
Taylor and Francis Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
Hybrid nanocomposites have the unique ability of enhancing material properties due to the existing synergistic effect of the fillers. In this study, the authors report such an eco-friendly hybrid nanocomposite comprising ...
Pilot-scale spiral wound membrane assessment for THM precursor rejection from upland waters
(
Taylor and Francis Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
The outcomes of a pilot-scale study of the rejection of trihalomethanes (THMs) precursors by commercial ultrafiltration/nanofiltration (UF/NF) spiral-wound membrane elements are presented based on a single surface water ...
