AIChE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
The degradations of volatile organic sulfur compounds (VOSCs) by advanced oxidation technology, solar advanced oxidation technology, biological treatment, and the combination of solar advanced oxidation technology and ...
Improving the efficiency of dye sensitized solar cells by TiO2-graphene nanocomposite photoanode
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2015 , Article)
Nanocomposite photoanodes were prepared by addition of graphene (GR) micro-platelets to TiO2 nanoparticulate paste. TiO2/graphene based DSSCs were fabricated using Z907 photosensitizer. Transmission electron microscope was ...
Rheology of organoclay assisted extrusion of HDPE using Particle Image Velocimetry
(
Institution of Chemical Engineers
, 2015 , Article)
Wall slip is often seen as a source of flow enhancement and can play a significant role during certain melt instabilities in polymer processing. In the present investigation, the effect of organoclay on the wall slip of ...

Recent studies showed that embedding engineering at K-12 level has a positive impact on stimulating interest in- and improving learning outcomes of science and mathematics, and development of 21st Century skills. Engineering ...
Contributions of competition based complex engineering design experience to leadership development in engineering students
(
American Society for Engineering Education
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Engineering design activities provide students an opportunity to develop a number of skills. Engineering design experiences not only help students to acquire practical or technical skills, but also may enhance a number of ...
Inter-relay interference management schemes for wireless multi-user decode-and-forward relay networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Article)
In this paper, two cooperative communications schemes with inter-relay interference (IRI) management are proposed for wireless multi-user decode-and-forward (DF) relay networks. The schemes are based on a DF half-duplex ...
Modeling Heterogeneous Cellular Networks Interference Using Poisson Cluster Processes
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Article)
Future mobile networks are converging toward heterogeneous multitier networks, where macro-, pico-, and femto-cells are randomly deployed based on user demand. A popular approach for analyzing heterogeneous networks (HetNets) ...
Modelling, analysis and performance improvement of an SRU's access request queue in multi-channel V2I communications
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a concise yet comprehensive description of a multi-channel Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communication system. Existing mathematical models for such a system overlook some of its essential behavioural ...
