FRCM/internal transverse shear reinforcement interaction in shear strengthened RC beams
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
This paper presents a study on the efficacy of a shear strengthening technique utilizing fabric reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) systems for beams with and without internal transverse shear reinforcement (ITSR) within ...
Congestion-aware core mapping for Network-on-Chip based systems using betweenness centrality
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
Network congestion poses significant impact on application performance and network throughput in Network-on-Chip (NoC) based systems. Efficient core mapping can significantly reduce the network contention and end-to-end ...
A HVDC shunt tap based on unidirectional hybrid modular DC-DC converter with simultaneous charging and sequential discharging of capacitors
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
In this paper, a new HVDC shunt tap is proposed. The proposed configuration consists of a unidirectional hybrid modular DC-DC converter followed by a voltage source converter for DC-AC conversion to feed a local AC network ...
Development of cost-effective composite repair system for oil/gas pipelines
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
Fiber-reinforced composite repairs are becoming widely used as an alternative to the installation of welded, full-encirclement sleeves for repair of oil and gas transmission/transportation pipelines. The primary advantage ...

(
Elsevier
, 2018 , Article)
Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is an inherited genetic disorder of lipid metabolism characterized by a high serum LDL-cholesterol profile and xanthoma formation, and FH increases the risk of premature atherosclerosis ...
3D characterization of sand particle-to-particle contact and morphology
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Particle morphology, orientation, and contact configuration play a significant role in the engineering properties of granular materials. Accurate three-dimensional (3D) characterization of these parameters for experiments ...
Comparison of 2D triangular C-grid shallow water models
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
An ideal two-dimensional (2D) shallow water model should be able to simulate correctly various types of waves including pure gravity and inertia-gravity waves. In this paper, two different triangular C-grid methods are ...
Utilization of residual organics of Labaneh whey for renewable energy generation through bioelectrochemical processes: Strategies for enhanced substrate conversion and energy generation
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
Labaneh whey (LW)that is rich in residual organics was evaluated for bioelectricity generation using microbial fuel cell (MFC)in two different configurations namely single chamber (MFC-SC)and dual chamber (MFC-DC)MFCs. The ...
Glycosylation is a novel TGF?1-independent post-translational modification of Smad2
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Smad2 is a crucial component of intracellular signaling by transforming growth factor-? (TGF?). Here we describe that Smad2 is glycosylated, which is a novel for Smad2 post-translational modification. We showed that the ...
