Relative sensitivity of soft-bottom intertidal macrofauna to increased CO2 and experimental stress
(
Inter-Research
, 2014 , Article)
We used a controlled CO2 perturbation experiment to test hypotheses about changes in diversity, composition and structure of soft-bottom intertidal macrobenthic assemblages, under realistic and locally relevant scenarios ...
The development, translation and validation of an instrument used in a tobacco cessation intervention study among patients with diabetes
(
Asian Journal of Pharmaceutical and Clinical Research
, 2014 , Article)
Objective: In diabetes care, smoking cessation is a very important component that should be addressed in order to facilitate effective blood glucose control and to limit the development of complications associated with ...
Novel Cu (II) and Zn (II) complexes of 8-hydroxyquinoline derivatives as effective corrosion inhibitors for mild steel in 1.0?M HCl solution: Computer modeling supported experimental studies
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
In this work, we have synthesized and characterized novel complexes of copper (II) and zinc (II). These complexes were obtained by reacting of 5-azidomethyl-8-hydroxyquinoline with copper chloride dihydrate and zinc chloride ...
Health Informatics Tools to Improve Utilization of Laboratory Tests
(
Oxford University Press
, 2017 , Article)
Herein, we discuss improper test utilization practices and their
implications on delivery of health care, as well as providing a brief
explanation of the means to reduce such practices by improvement of
personnel factors, ...
Social commerce as social networking
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
Behavioral intention toward social commerce has been explained mainly by consumers' pursuit of utilitarian and economic value. However, in this paper, we show that consumers can be drawn to social commerce primarily for ...
Pomegranate peels as versatile adsorbents for water purification: Application of box–behnken design as a methodological optimization approach
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2019 , Article)
Pomegranate peels (PGP) were tested as a green adsorbent for the removal of Ni(II) from contaminated water samples. Both raw (RPG), and char/burnt peels (BPG) were tested. A multivariate analysis approach, Box–Behnken (BB) ...
Joint Frame Synchronization and Channel Estimation: Sparse Recovery Approach and USRP Implementation
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Article)
Correlation-based techniques used for frame synchronization can suffer significant performance degradation over multi-path frequency-selective channels. In this paper, we propose a joint frame synchronization and channel ...

(
Emerald Group Publishing Ltd.
, 2016 , Article)
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the performances of two inhibitors in controlling corrosion of steel products in industrial and marine atmosphere. Design/methodology/approach: Corrosion rates were ...
Concurrent association in heterogeneous networks with underlay D2D communication
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Deployment of Device-to-Device (D2D) communication within dense heterogeneous networks is a key solution in order to face the intense demand for high data rates and quality of the service in future 5G networks. However, ...
