Removal of pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs) pollutants from water by novel TiO2-Coconut Shell Powder (TCNSP) composite
(
Korean Society of Industrial Engineering Chemistry
, 2014 , Article)
Photocatlytic removal of three pharmaceutical and personal care products pollutants using novel TiO2–Coconut Shell Powder (TCNSP) composite was investigated. The photocatalytic degradation rate of PPCPs generally increased ...
Isomorphic Hilbert spaces associated with different complex contours of the PT-symmetric (-x^4) theory
(
World Scientific Publishing Co.
, 2014 , Article)
In this work, we stress the existence of isomorphisms which map complex contours from the upper half to contours in the lower half of the complex plane. The metric operator is found to depend on the chosen contour but the ...
A component map tuning method for performance prediction and diagnostics of gas turbine compressors
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
In this paper, a novel compressor map tuning method is developed with the primary objective of improving the accuracy and fidelity of gas turbine engine models for performance prediction and diagnostics. A new compressor ...
Theoretical study on the solvation of C60 fullerene by ionic liquids
(
American Chemical Society
, 2014 , Article)
The solvation of C60 fullerene by 24 different ionic liquids belonging to the imidazolium, piperazinium, and cholinium families was analyzed from a nanoscopic viewpoint using classic molecular dynamics simulations and ...
Novel geometric features for off-line writer identification
(
Springer Verlag
, 2014 , Article)
Writer identification is an important field in forensic document examination. Typically, a writer identification system consists of two main steps: feature extraction and matching and the performance depends significantly ...

Time-motion analysis of elite male kickboxing competition. J Strength Cond Res 28(12): 3537–3543, 2014—The objective of the study was to analyze the time structure of high-level kickboxing matches. A total of 45 combats ...
Coalitional double auction for spatial spectrum allocation in cognitive radio networks
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Article)
Recently, many dynamic spectrum allocation schemes based on economics are proposed to improve spectrum utilization in cognitive radio networks (CRNs). However, existing mechanisms do not take into account the economic ...
Brand switching of high-technology capital products: How product features dictate the switching decision
(
Emerald Group Publishing Ltd.
, 2014 , Article)
Purpose
– The purpose of this paper is to investigate the factors that underpin brand switching of medical imaging products by mass-market users. Most of the literature on brand switching is focused on competitive market ...
Parameter identification of five-phase induction machines with single layer windings
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Article)
Despite the increased interest in multiphase induction machines for safety-critical applications, machine parameter identification for the different sequence planes is still a challenging research point. In most available ...
Opportunistic spectrum sharing in relay-assisted cognitive systems with imperfect CSI
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Article)
In this paper, we consider spectrum sharing between cognitive radio (CR) users and a licensed primary user (PU) to enhance the spectrum efficiency. In the considered scenario, the PU is not able to successfully transmit ...
