Post-Donation Evaluation of Life of Donors of Liver Transplantation
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)
Aim: Liver transplantation from living donors affects not only recipients' but also donors' lives. The aim of this study was to explore living donors' experience of life. Methods: The sample consisted of 16 living donors ...
Modeling and Equalization of Indoor Visible Light Channnels
(IEEE, 2016)
In this paper a computationally efficient method is proposed for modeling the indoor visible light communications (VLC) channels using a non-sequential ray tracing technique. We created three dimensional realistic simulation ...
Level Densities of Heavy Nuclei in the Shell Model Monte Carlo Approach
(EDP Sciences, 2016)
Nuclear level densities are necessary input to the Hauser-Feshbach theory of compound nuclear reactions. However the microscopic calculation of level densities in the presence of correlations is a challenging many-body ...
Smart Systems From Design to Implementation of Embedded Smart Systems
(IEEE, 2016)
This paper aims to explain the design and implementation procedure of embedded Smart Systems. The idea is supported by four different Smart Systems as Smart Home Smart Agriculture Smart Campus and Seat and Study Module of ...
Comparison of Compressed Sensing Based Algorithms for Sparse Signal Reconstruction
(IEEE, 2016)
Compressed sensing theory shows that any signal which is defined as sparse in a given domain can be reconstructed using fewer linear projections instead of using all Nyquist-rate samples. In this paper we investigate basis ...
Persistence of Vibrational Collectivity in Nuclear Level Densities
(E D P SCIENCES, 2016)
By applying the particle-number projection to the finite-temperature BCS theory to the state densities in the rare-earth nuclei and comparing its results to the SMMC ones we investigate effects of the particle-number ...
Social Media Adoption: A Process-Based Approach
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2016)
This research conceptualizes and measures social media adoption (SMA) of companies with a process-based approach and explains its antecedents of micro- and macro-environment size and ownership as well as its consequence ...
Determinants of Saving-Borrowing Decisions and Financial Inclusion in a High Middle Income Country: The Turkish Case
(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2016)
We use a representative survey of the Turkish household sector and investigate factors impinging on saving-borrowing behavior. We run four probit regressions to elucidate (i) the saving decision (ii) asset choice or portfolio ...
Internal Customer Satisfaction Improvement with QFD Technique
(Emerald Group Publishing Limited, 2016)
Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to employ quality function deployment (QFD) method for translating internal customer needs and expectations into appropriate service specifications to perform existing process assessments ...
Data-Aided Autoregressive Sparse Channel Tracking for OFDM Systems
(IEEE, 2016)
In order to meet future communication system requirements channel estimation over fast fading and frequency selective channels is crucial. In this paper Space Alternated Generalized Expectation Maximization Maximum a ...
