Secure smart contract-enabled control of battery energy storage systems against cyber-attacks
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESSs) are an integral part of a sustainable and resilient smart grid. The security of such critical cyber-physical infrastructure is considered as a major priority for both industry and ...
Large eddy simulation of surge inception and active surge control in a high speed centrifugal compressor with a vaned diffuser
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
In this study, we present a numerical investigation of active surge control and performance improvement for an aero engine centrifugal compressor (NASA CC3) using self-recirculating bleed slots with different bleeding ...
Halloysite nanotubes and halloysite-based composites for biomedical applications
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Novel biomaterials for diagnostics and therapeutics of biomedical issues have been considered using biomedical science and health care. Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) are naturally occurring aluminosilicate clay. Because of ...
Text-to-picture tools, systems, and approaches: a survey
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2019 , Article)
Text-to-picture systems attempt to facilitate high-level, user-friendly communication between humans and computers while promoting understanding of natural language. These systems interpret a natural language text and ...
Optimal Group Formation in Dense Wi-Fi Direct Networks for Content Distribution
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Article)
Wi-Fi Direct enables direct communication between Wi-Fi devices by forming Peer to Peer (P2P) groups. In each P2P group, one device becomes the Group Owner (GO) and serves as an access point (AP) to connect the remaining ...
A fog computing solution for context-based privacy leakage detection for android healthcare devices
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
Intelligent medical service system integrates wireless internet of things (WIoT), including medical sensors, wireless communications, and middleware techniques, so as to collect and analyze patients' data to examine their ...
Time-domain simulation of second-order irregular wave diffraction based on a hybrid water wave radiation condition
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
A time-domain second-order method is presented to simulate three-dimensional wave–body interaction. In the approach, Taylor series expansions are applied to the free surface boundary conditions, and a Stokes perturbation ...
A path walkability assessment index model for evaluating and facilitating retail walking using decision-tree-making (DTM) method
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
Transportation is the major contributor of ever-increasing CO2 and Greenhouse Gas emissions in cities. The ever-increasing hazardous emissions of transportation and energy consumption have persuaded transportation and urban ...
Organically modified nanoclay filled thin-film nanocomposite membranes for reverse osmosis application
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
This study validates, for the first time, the effectiveness of two nanoclays, that is, cloisite (CS)-15A and montmorillonite (MNT) at the polyamide (PA) active layer in the reverse osmosis (RO) membrane. Cloisite-15A is ...
Hybrid Full-Duplex and Alternate Multiple Relay Selection and Beamforming in AF Cooperative Networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
In this paper, multiple relay selection and beamforming techniques are applied to a dual-hop full-duplex (FD) amplify-and-forward relaying network. We show that our proposed techniques allow the selection to be adaptive ...
