Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.
, 2016 , Article)
This research intends to address variables that would facilitate the migration to m-government model in a developing economy experiencing a very high growth and adoption of mobile communication technology. By conducting ...
High performance CO2 filtration and sequestration by using bromomethyl benzene linked microporous networks
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
Porous solid sorbents have been investigated for the last few decades to replace the costly amine solution and explore the most efficient and economical material for CO2 capture and storage. Covalent organic polymers (COPs) ...
Template synthesis of metal tungsten nanowire bundles with high field electron emission performance
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
One-dimensional (1D) metal nanowires are of great importance for nanodevices due to their distinctive optical, electronic and mechanical properties. Here, for the first time, we report a simple H2 reduction-assisted ...
Optimization-based very large-scale neighborhood search for generalized assignment problems with location/allocation considerations
(
INFORMS Inst.for Operations Res.and the Management Sciences
, 2016 , Article)
This paper introduces a novel class of generalized assignment problems with location/allocation considerations that arises in several applications including retail shelf space allocation. We consider a set of items where ...

Purpose - The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy of corporate governance systems in enhancing earnings quality during the recent global financial crisis (GFC). The literature provides insight into the corporate ...
Exact solution methods for a generalized assignment problem with location/allocation considerations
(
INFORMS Inst.for Operations Res.and the Management Sciences
, 2016 , Article)
We investigate modeling approaches and exact solution methods for a generalized assignment problem with location/allocation (GAPLA) considerations. In contrast with classical generalized assignment problems, each knapsack ...
Effect of blade tip geometry on centrifugal compressor performance and stability
(
Medwell Journals
, 2016 , Article)
The reliability operation for small fuel cells and hybrid fuel cell with gas turbine requires centrifugal compressor surge prevention. This study concerns a high speed centrifugal compressor stage with different blade tip ...
Mitogenomics of the extinct cave lion, Panthera spelaea (Goldfuss, 1810), resolve its position within the panthera cats
(
Ubiquity Press
, 2016 , Article)
The extinct cave lion (Panthera spelaea) was an apex predator of the Pleistocene, and one of the largest felid species ever to exist. We report the first mitochondrial genome sequences for this species, derived from two ...
Ordered mesoporous silica/polyvinylidene fluoride composite membranes for effective removal of water contaminants
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
A facile one-step immersion co-precipitation method has been developed to fabricate an inorganic-organic composite membrane with three-dimensionally (3D) interpenetrating porous structures via incorporating ordered mesoporous ...
Hierarchical ordered macro/mesoporous titania with a highly interconnected porous structure for efficient photocatalysis
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
