Sol-gel deposition and plasma treatment of intrinsic, aluminum-doped and gallium-doped zinc oxide thin films as transparent conductive electrodes
(
SPIE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Zinc oxide and aluminum/gallium-doped zinc oxide thin films were deposited via sol-gel spin-coating technique. Employing plasma treatment as alternative to post thermal annealing, we found that the morphologies of these ...
Micro-Doppler characteristics of elderly gait patterns with walking AIDS
(
SPIE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we analyze the micro-Doppler signatures of elderly gait patterns in the presence of walking AIDS using radars. The signatures are based on real data experiments conducted in a laboratory environment using ...
High-resolution time-frequency distributions for fall detection
(
SPIE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we examine the role of high-resolution time-frequency distributions (TFDs) of radar micro-Doppler signatures for fall detection. The work supports the recent and rising interest in using emerging radar ...
A novel two-step metal oxide - Metal sulfate water splitting cycle for the production of solar hydrogen
(
AIChE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This paper reports the thermodynamic analysis of solar H2 production via two-step thermochemical Strontium oxide - Strontium Sulfate (SO-SS) water splitting cycle. The first step belongs to the exothermic oxidation of SrO ...

Understanding ethanol hydrogen abstraction mechanism on CuNi catalyst
(
AIChE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this work we report the synthesis of copper oxide nanoparticles using solution combustion synthesis. These nanopowders are used as catalyst in ethanol decomposition reaction for hydrogen production. In situ study of ...
Solar hydrogen production via thermochemical metal oxide - Metal sulfate water splitting cycle
(
AIChE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This paper reports the thermodynamic analysis of solar H2 production via two-step thermochemical iron oxide - iron Sulfate (IO-IS) water splitting cycle. The first step belongs to the exothermic oxidation of FeO via SO2 ...
Microstructure and properties of Ni-Co-TiO2 composite coatings fabricated by electroplating
(
World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Ni-Co coatings are widely used due to their unique mechanical properties, high anticorrosion properties, good thermal stability and special magnetic properties. Ni-Co-xTiO2 (x = 0-20 g/L in the electrolyte) composite ...
Remarkable improvement in properties of NI-B coatings by the addition of mixed oxide nanoparticles
(
Association for Iron and Steel Technology, AISTECH
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
A comparison of properties of Ni-B and Ni-B-ZrO2-Al2O3 nanocomposite coatings synthesized through electrodeposition process is presented to elucidate the beneficial role of addition of mixed nanoparticles of ZrO2 and Al2O3 ...
Fractional low order cyclostationary-based spectrum sensing in cognitive radio networks
(
Springer Verlag
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we study the problem of cyclostationary spectrum sensing in cognitive radio networks based on cyclic properties of linear modulations. For this purpose, we use fractional order of observations in cyclic ...
