Resistive room temperature LPG sensor based on a graphene/CdO nanocomposite
(
Springer-Verlag Wien
, 2019 , Article)
The authors decribe an ultra-sensitive, room temperature, flexible transparent LPG sensor based on the use of a CdO/graphene nanocomposite. The graphene prevents the accumulation of CdO, enhances the surface area, and acts ...
A path walkability assessment index model for evaluating and facilitating retail walking using decision-tree-making (DTM) method
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
Transportation is the major contributor of ever-increasing CO2 and Greenhouse Gas emissions in cities. The ever-increasing hazardous emissions of transportation and energy consumption have persuaded transportation and urban ...
Digenic inheritance and genetic modifiers
(
Blackwell Publishing Ltd
, 2018 , Article Review)
Digenic inheritance (DI) concerns pathologies with the simplest form of multigenic etiology, implicating more than 1 gene (and perhaps the environment). True DI is when biallelic or even triallelic mutations in 2 distinct ...
Confined Interfacial Monomicelle Assembly for Precisely Controlled Coating of Single-Layered Titania Mesopores
(
Cell Press
, 2019 , Article)
The development of core-shell structures has been in great demand recently owing to their integrated functionalities. However, the progress in reliable coating of porous semiconductors remains unproductive. Here, we have ...
Industrial effluent treatment with immersed MBRs: Treatability and cost
(
IWA Publishing
, 2019 , Article)
A comprehensive OPEX analysis for both municipal and industrial wastewaters has been conducted encompassing energy, critical component (membrane) replacement, chemicals consumption, waste disposal and labour. The analysis ...
Thermodynamics and kinetics of CH4/CO2 binary mixture separation by metal-organic frameworks from isotope exchange and adsorption break-through
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
We combine the isotope exchange technique (IET) with the conventional Sieverts method, microcalorimetry, breakthrough experiments and multi-scale modelling to comprehensively and quantitatively investigate the thermodynamics ...
Vibrations Serviceability of a Medical Facility Floor for Sensitive Equipment Replacement: Evaluation with Sparse in Situ Data
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2019 , Article)
Vibrations serviceability of building floors has been a growing concern over the years. For steel-framed systems, vibrations serviceability checks often govern the structural design. When the floor is carrying vibration-sensitive ...
Data-driven curation, learning and analysis for inferring evolving IoT botnets in the wild
(
Association for Computing Machinery
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
The insecurity of the Internet-of-Things (IoT) paradigm continues to wreak havoc in consumer and critical infrastructure realms. Several challenges impede addressing IoT security at large, including, the lack of IoT-centric ...
Recycling of Date Pits Into a Green Adsorbent for Removal of Heavy Metals: A Fractional Factorial Design-Based Approach
(
Frontiers Media S.A.
, 2019 , Article)
Date pits (DPs) have been recycled into a low-cost adsorbent for removing of selected heavy metals (HMs) from artificially contaminated aqueous solutions. Adsorption of targeted HMs, both by raw date pits (RDP) and burnt ...
A Method for 3-D Printing Patient-Specific Prosthetic Arms with High Accuracy Shape and Size
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
Limb amputation creates serious emotional and functional damage to the one who lost a limb. For some upper limb prosthesis users, comfort and appearance are among the desired features. The objective of this paper is to ...
