(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Article)
Smartphones and other trendy mobile wearable devices are rapidly becoming the dominant sensing, computing and communication devices in peoples' daily lives. Mobile crowd sensing is an emerging technology based on the sensing ...
Unconventional experimental technologies used for phase change materials (PCM) characterization: Part 2 - Morphological and structural characterization, physico-chemical stability and mechanical properties
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2015 , Article)
Due to the high interest of appropriate characterization of PCM and hybrid PCM composites, different research centres and universities are using several material characterization techniques not commonly used with PCM, to ...
Space vector pulse-width modulation technique for an eleven-phase voltage source inverter with sinusoidal output voltage generation
(
IET
, 2015 , Article)
This study discusses the space vector pulse-width modulation (SVPWM) scheme for an eleven-phase two-level voltage source inverter, aimed at producing a sinusoidal output voltage waveform. Generalised space vector theory ...
Patient assessment teaching and learning in undergraduate pharmacy curriculum: Students' perspective of a pharmacist-physician instructional strategy
(
International Pharmaceutical Federation
, 2015 , Article)
Introduction: Pharmacy programmes commonly use physicians, nurses, and physician assistants as instructors of patient assessment courses. These are often questioned to be physician-focused. The aim of this study was to ...
Supercooling elimination of phase change materials (PCMs) microcapsules
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
Microencapsulated phase change materials (PCM) must not experience any supercooling, otherwise cannot be used in any latent heat applications. In this study Rubitherm®RT58 and1-octadecanol were selected as nucleating agents ...
Human gait recognition with cane assistive device using quadratic time-frequency distributions
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2015 , Article)
In this study, the authors consider the problem of human gait recognition in the presence of a walking cane using radars. Quadratic time-frequency distributions are used to provide the local signal behaviour over frequency ...

(
Asian Pacific Organization for Cancer Prevention
, 2015 , Article)
Background: Nanoparticles of gold and silver are offering revolutionary changes in the field of cancer therapy. N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) metal complexes possess diverse biological activities and are being investigated ...
FPGA Implementation of Orthogonal Matching Pursuit for Compressive Sensing Reconstruction
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Article)
In this paper, we present a novel architecture based on field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) for the reconstruction of compressively sensed signal using the orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm. We have analyzed ...
Mechanical and physical behavior of newly developed functionally graded materials and composites of stainless steel 316L with calcium silicate and hydroxyapatite
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
This study aimed to investigate the structural, physical and mechanical behavior of composites and functionally graded materials (FGMs) made of stainless steel (SS-316L)/hydroxyapatite (HA) and SS-316L/calcium silicate ...
Freestanding eggshell membrane-based electrodes for high-performance supercapacitors and oxygen evolution reaction
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2015 , Article)
A type of freestanding, light-weight eggshell membrane-based electrode is demonstrated for supercapacitors and for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysis. As a widely available daily waste, eggshell membranes have unique ...
