The theta-complete graph Ramsey number R(θn K5) = 4n - 3 for n = 6 and n≥ 10
(
Charles Babbage Research Centre
, 2017 , Article)
For any two graphs F1 and F2, the graph Ramsey number r(F1, F2) is the smallest positive integer N with the property that every graph of at least N vertices contains F1 or its complement contains F2 as a subgraph. In this ...
Broadening microwave absorption via a multi-domain structure
(
American Institute of Physics Inc.
, 2017 , Article)
Materials with a high saturation magnetization have gained increasing attention in the field of microwave absorption; therefore, the magnetization value depends on the magnetic configuration inside them. However, the ...
Integrated capacitive and resistive humidity transduction via surface type nickel phthalocyanine based sensor
(
Electrochemical Science Group
, 2017 , Article)
This paper reports the study of an organic semiconductor nickel phthalocyanine (NiPc) based thin film surface-type integrated capacitive and resistive type humidity sensor. The capacitance and resistance of the fabricated ...
Effectiveness of Fabric-Reinforced Cementitious Matrix in Strengthening Reinforced Concrete Beams
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2017 , Article)
This paper reports on the efficiency of fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) in enhancing the flexural capacity and deformational characteristics of RC beams. In the main experimental part of the paper, 12 RC beams, ...
FRP/stirrups interaction of shear-strengthened beams
(
Kluwer Academic Publishers
, 2017 , Article)
This work includes experimental testing and finite element analysis of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) shear-strengthened reinforced concrete (RC) beams. The strengthening techniques used for the beam strengthening are ...
Preliminary Test Estimation of the Threshold in the Two-Parameter Exponential Distribution Based on Records and Minimax Regret Significance Levels
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2017 , Article)
SYNOPTIC ABSRACT: We consider preliminary test estimation of the threshold parameter of the two-parameter exponential distribution using record-breaking data. We use the minimax regret criterion on the risk function of the ...
Product-service supplier pre-evaluation with modified fuzzy ANP reducing decision information distortion
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2017 , Article)
The main challenge of new product-service supplier (PSS) selection is the lack of historical performance information of the suppliers. As one of the most popular techniques in supplier evaluation, the analytic network ...
A 10-step safety management framework for construction small and medium-sized enterprises
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2017 , Article)
It is of great importance to develop an occupational health and safety management system (OHS MS) to form a systemized approach to improve health and safety. It is a known fact that thousands of accidents and injuries occur ...
Design of Lightweight Authentication and Key Agreement Protocol for Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Article)
Due to the widespread popularity in both academia and industry, vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) have been used in a wide range of applications starting from intelligent transportation to e-health and itinerary planning. ...
The Hsp72 and Hsp90a mRNA responses to hot downhill running are reduced following a prior bout of hot downhill running, and occur concurrently within leukocytes and the vastus lateralis
(
Frontiers Media S.A.
, 2017 , Article)
The leukocyte heat shock response (HSR) is used to determine individual's thermotolerance. The HSR and thermotolerance are enhanced following interventions such as preconditioning and/or acclimation/acclimatization. However, ...
