Penalized Conway-Maxwell-Poisson regression for modelling dispersed discrete data: The case study of motor vehicle crash frequency
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Statistical modelling of road crashes has been of extreme interest to researchers over the last decades. Such models are necessary for the investigation of the opportunities for road safety improvement. The motor vehicle ...
Sintering behaviour and properties of manganese-doped alumina
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
The effect of manganese (0.1, 0.5 and 1.0 wt%) on the sintering and mechanical properties of alumina was studied. Sintering was carried out by the conventional heating method in a box furnace and in a hybrid multimode ...
Yttrium oxide nanoparticle loaded scaffolds with enhanced cell adhesion and vascularization for tissue engineering applications
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
In situ tissue engineering is emerging as a novel approach in tissue engineering to repair damaged tissues by boosting the natural ability of the body to heal itself. This can be achieved by providing suitable signals and ...

The bombing of airliners has been a tactic used by terrorists during the past 40 years. Its prevention is a major priority by homeland security officials on a worldwide basis. In efforts to aid in the investigation of such ...
Silymarin-albumin nanoplex: Preparation and its potential application as an antioxidant in nervous system in vitro and in vivo
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
In this study, we formulated silymarin-HSA nanoplex and assayed its ability to reduce LPS-induced toxicity in vitro and in vivo. Silymarin molecules were encapsulated into HSA nanoplex and the loading efficiency and ...
Designing and performance evaluation of polyelectrolyte multilayered composite smart coatings
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
This work reports the synthesis of polyelectrolyte microcapsules and its effect on the anti-corrosion performance of polymeric coating applied on steel substrates. In situ polymerization technique was used for the synthesis ...
Endorsing domestic energy saving behavior using micro-moment classification

With the ever-growing rise of energy consumption and its devastating financial and environmental repercussions, it is of utmost significance to moderate energy usage with proper energy efficiency tools. This is particularly ...
Time frequency analysis of the commonalities between Bitcoin and major Cryptocurrencies: Portfolio risk management implications
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2019 , Article)
This paper uses wavelet coherence and cross wavelet transform approaches to examine co-movement between Bitcoin and five major cryptocurrencies (Dash, Ethereum, Litecoin, Monero and Ripple) and their portfolio risk ...
Validity of the effective potential method to study PT-symmetric field theories
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
We calculate the one loop effective potential for the class (-(iϕ)α) of PT-symmetric and non-Hermitian field theories in 0+1 space-time dimensions. To test the method, we showed that for the massless Hermitian ϕ4 theory, ...
