Application of hybrid framework to facilitate lean six sigma implementation: a manufacturing company case experience
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2018 , Article)
This study aims to propose a hybrid framework for lean six sigma (LSS) based on the prioritisation of barriers and solution approaches, to facilitate hassles free applications for handling the challenges of wastes reduction ...
Impact of competitive conditions on supplier evaluation: a construction supply chain case study
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2018 , Article)
This research proposes a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) framework and demonstrates the impact of competitive conditions on supplier evaluation process for construction supply chains. The paper focuses on the supply ...
An Approach for Energy Conservation Management Systems in Buildings
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Making decisions about energy conservation options in buildings can be rather problematic as they involve several tradeoffs between project stakeholders. Furthermore, the level of details required in making a decision by ...
ANN Model for Energy Demand and Supply Forecasting in a Hybrid Energy Supply System
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents short term demand and supply forecasting model for a microgrid supply system used to secure the electricity demands of a commercial building, using one year demand data collected in hourly base. One-year ...
Resonator based switching technique between ultra wide band (Uwb) and single/dual continuously tunable-notch behaviors in uwb radar for wireless vital signs monitoring
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
This paper presents a novel resonator that can switch and create three important behaviors within the same antenna using miniaturized capacitors. The resonator was integrated into conventional Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) antenna ...
Electrochemical, morphological, and spectroscopic study of poly(aniline-co-o-bromoaniline) (PA-co-o-BrA) conducting copolymer
(
Institute for Ionics
, 2018 , Article)
A series of moderately conducting and soluble copolymers of poly(aniline-co-o-bromoaniline) (PA-co-o-BrA) having different compositions was obtained by in the situ copolymerization method using different concentrations of ...

(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper describes the ICFHR 2018 Competition on Multi-script Writer Identification with details on the competition tasks, databases employed, submitted systems, evaluation protocol and the reported results. The competition ...
Pareto-front analysis of a monotonie PI control law for slip suppression in a robotic manipulator
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a novel slip-suppression controller for a two-fingered robotic manipulator, where the goal is to minimize the slip distance without using excessive force. To do this, we consider monotonic PI (MPI) ...
Modelling and simulation of active noise control in a small room
(
SAGE Publications Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
This paper presents the modeling and simulation results of active noise control (ANC) in a small room using the wave-based approach defined by particle velocities and sound pressure within the defined boundary conditions. ...
