Refining the ambiguity domain characteristics of non-stationary signals for improved time–frequency analysis: Test case of multidirectional and multicomponent piecewise LFM and HFM signals
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
This paper aims at providing a more accurate description of the ambiguity domain characteristics of a piecewise multicomponent non-stationary signals with focus on piece-wise linear frequency modulated (LFM) (PW-LFM) signal ...
Oilfield scale formation and chemical removal: A review
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article Review)
In oil and gas industry operations, scale deposition on the surface and subsurface production equipment can cause different problems such as formation damage, loss in production, pressure reductions, and premature failure ...
Integrated bioelectrochemical platforms
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Book chapter)
Energy and water are intrinsically linked, as all energy sources need water for their production processes, and at the same time, water resources require energy to be available for human consumption. One of the promising ...
Auction Design and Analysis for SDN-Based Traffic Offloading in Hybrid Satellite-Terrestrial Networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
Recently, hybrid satellite-terrestrial networks (H-STNs) are expected to support extremely high data rates and exponentially increasing demands of data, which require new spectrum sharing and interference control technology ...
T-tetrominoes tiling's Markov chain mixes fast
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
Korn and Pak (2007) [3] conjectured that there exists a fully polynomial randomized approximation scheme (fpras) for approximating the number of ways of tiling a 4n x 4m rectangular lattice with T-tetrominoes. Using a flow ...
A fast numerical method for ideal fluid flow in domains with multiple stirrers
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2018 , Article)
A collection of arbitrarily-shaped solid objects, each moving at a constant speed, can be used to mix or stir ideal fluid, and can give rise to interesting flow patterns. Assuming these systems of fluid stirrers are ...

Copyright © 2018, Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. Background: Salmonella is a leading cause of foodborne enterocolitis worldwide. Antimicrobial use in food animals is the driving force for antimicrobial resistance among Salmonella ...
Advances in osteobiologic materials for bone substitutes.
(
John Wiley and Sons
, 2018 , Article Review)
A significant challenge in the current orthopedics is the development of suitable osteobiologic materials that can replace the conventional allografts, autografts, and xenografts and thereby serve as implant materials as ...
Evidence of low levels of aflatoxin M1 in milk and dairy products marketed in Qatar
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
This study was designed to explore the incidence of aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) in milk and dairy products marketed in Qatar. Milk (n = 72), yogurt (n = 21), cheese (n = 46), butter (n = 18) and laban (n = 25) samples were initially ...
