Amplitude modulation in infrared metamaterial absorbers based on electro-optically tunable conducting oxides
(
Springer Verlag
, 2018 , Article)
A class of electro-optically tunable metamaterial absorbers is designed and theoretically investigated in the infrared regime towards realizing free-space amplitude modulators. The spacer between a subwavelength metallic ...
A computational study on molecular structure and stability of tautomers of dipyrrole-based phenanthroline analogue
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
This work reports structure and stability of different tautomers of a newly-designed analogue of 1,10-phenanthroline-5,6-dione (the di-keto structure (DK) derived from 1H,8H-pyrrolo[3,2-g]indole (PI)) using quantum chemical ...
Effect of hot extrusion and T6 heat treatment on microstructure and mechanical properties of Al-10Zn-3.5Mg-2.5Cu nanocomposite reinforced with graphene nanoplatelets
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
Al-10Zn-3.5Mg-2.5Cu/graphene nanocomposites were developed by a combination of liquid metallurgy and hot extrusion techniques. The effect of varying graphene content (0.1%, 0.3%, 0.7% and 1.0%) on microstructure and ...
Flexural behavior of basalt fiber reinforced concrete beams with recycled concrete coarse aggregates
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
This study investigates the effect of using recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) from construction and demolition (C&D) waste combined with basalt macro-fibers (BMF) on the flexural behavior and ultimate capacity of reinforced ...
Blind Source Separation Algorithms Using Hyperbolic and Givens Rotations for High-Order QAM Constellations
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
This paper addresses the problem of blind demixing of instantaneous mixtures in a multiple-input multiple-output communication system. The main objective is to present efficient blind source separation (BSS) algorithms ...
KCLP: A k-Means Cluster-Based Location Privacy Protection Scheme in WSNs for IoT
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
While enjoying the convenience brought by the Internet of Things (IoT), people also encounter many problems with wireless sensor networks (WSNs), the foundation of IoT. Security problems are especially of concern. In this ...
Provider selection and task allocation in telecommunications with QoS degradation policy
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2018 , Article)
The information age that we are living in is characterized by exponentially increasing needs and corresponding means to access, transmit and use data in a variety of business settings. Fast growing demand, which is translated ...
A combined method to model dynamic recrystallization based on cellular automaton and a phenomenological (CAP) approach
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
Titanium alloys with high stacking-fault energy show continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX) instead of discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (DDRX) during high-temperature deformation. During the CDRX mechanism, new ...
The dynamic interaction effects of railway tunnels: Crossrail and the Grand Central Recording Studios
(
SAGE Publications Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
In cities around the world, underground railways offer an environmentally friendly solution to society's increasing demand for mass transport. However, they are often constructed close to sensitive buildings, where the ...
Dual Active Full Bridge Implementation on Typhoon HIL for G2V and V2G Applications
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
The Dual Active Full Bridge (DAFB) is one of the promising isolated DC/DC converter topologies that will play a significant role in the future integration of Electric Vehicle (EV) into Smart Grids (SGs). This is due to its ...
