Editorial: New Media and Political Revival: The Middle East Story
(
OMICS International
, 2013 , Article)
It has become evident that the Arab revolutions that took place in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya have marked a turning point in Arab politics. On the other side, it was also a turning point of realizing the importance of social ...
Ion impact induced ionization/fragmentation dynamics of rare gas Dimers
(
IOP Publishing
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
We have measured the ionization and fragmentation of Helium, Neon and Argon Dimers induced by ion impact and observed two different pathways, the sequential ionization on each atom and the interatomic Cou-lombic decay. © ...
Three Dimensional Computational Study for Spiral Dry Gas Seal with Constant Groove Depth and Different Tapered Grooves
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
The three dimensional simulation for dry gas seal with constant depth spiral grooves and with different taper grooves is done using ANSYS FLUENT CFD code. Grid independence study and code validation are done with experimental ...
Genetic variants associated with warfarin dose in African-American individuals: a genome-wide association study
(
Elsevier
, 2013 , Article)
Summary BackgroundVKORC1 and CYP2C9 are important contributors to warfarin dose variability, but explain less variability for individuals of African descent than for those of European or Asian descent. We aimed to identify ...
Open education resources and mobile technology to narrow the learning divide
(
Athabasca University
, 2013 , Article)
As the world becomes more digitized, there will be an increasing need to make available learning resources in electronic format for access by information and communication technologies. The question education will face is ...
Centrifugal Compressor Spiral Dry Gas Seal Simulation Working at Reverse Rotation
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
Unidirectional dry gas seal may experiences reverse rotation when equipped in a centrifugal compressor. This paper describes how the reverse rotation effects on the spiral unidirectional dry gas seal performance and pressure ...
ConMR: Concurrent MapReduce programming model for large scale shared-Data applications
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
The rapid growth of large-data processing has brought in the MapReduce programming model as a widely accepted solution. However, MapReduce limits itself to a onemap- To-one-reduce framework. Meanwhile, it lacks built-in ...
Optimal control of an advection-dominated catalytic fixed-bed reactor with catalyst deactivation
(
Elsevier
, 2013 , Article)
The paper focuses on the linear-quadratic control problem for a time-varying partial differential equation model of a catalytic fixed-bed reactor. The classical Riccati equation approach, for time-varying infinite-dimensional ...
Using safety constraint for transactional dataset anonymization
(
Springer
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we address privacy breaches in transactional data where individuals have multiple tuples in a dataset. We provide a safe grouping principle to ensure that correlated values are grouped together in unique ...
The effects of gas tungsten arch welding on the corrosion and mechanical properties of AA 6061 T6
(2013 , Article)
Corrosion of welded and un-welded Aluminum Alloy 6061 T6 was investigated by immersing specimens in 3.5% (wt) NaCl solution. Potentiodynamic and open circuit potential measurements were conducted. The mechanical properties ...
