The Effect Of Surfaces On The Orientational Properties and Phase Transitions Peculiarities Of A Nonpolar Smectogen
(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2010)
The effect of thin films on the orientational and optical properties of nonpolar monolayer smectogen 4-butoxyphenyl-4'-decyloxybenzoate ((10) over barO (4) over bar) liquid crystal has been studied by polarizing microscopy ...
A Farewell to King Coal: Geopolitics, Energy Security, and the Transition to Oil, 1898–1917
(Cambridge Univ Press, 2019)
Interest in energy transitions has accelerated in recent years due to rising concerns about global warming and resource scarcity but the drivers of these phenomena are not well understood. To date scholars have primarily ...
An energy efficient routing algorithm (X-Centric routing) for sensor networks
(INT INST Informatics & Systemics, 2011)
Recent developments in wireless communications and electronics technologies have enabled the progress in low cost sensor networks. Sensor networks differ from traditional networks in several ways such as the severe energy ...
Distributed Memory Parallel Transient Stability Analysis on a PC Cluster with Ethernet
(Praise Worthy Prize Srl, 2010)
On-line transient stability analysis is a necessity for real-time power system control and security. Parallel processing is a natural technology for achieving real-time solution performance. This paper presents a ...
Multi-player race
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2018)
We present a model of race with multiple players and study players' effort choices and expected prizes in equilibrium. We show that in equilibrium once any two players win one battle each the remaining players do not exert ...
Busy tone based coexistence algorithm for WRAN and WLAN systems in TV white space
(Inst Engineering Technology-IET, 2018)
TV White Space (TVWS) refers to frequency band reserved only for licensed terrestrial TV broadcasting and is opened to unlicensed use under regulatory conditions. While regulations protect licensed systems from interference ...
Mobile Application Development for the Estimation of Recurrence in Post-Operative Kidney Cancer Cases
(IEEE, 2018)
In this paper a post-operative recurrence estimation tool called Sorbellini's nomogram for the kidney cancer patients showing no metastates is introduced and a novel application for mobile devices based on this model is ...
Examining the stability of binding modes of the co-crystallized inhibitors of human HDAC8 by molecular dynamics simulation
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2019)
Histone deacetylase (HDAC) 8 has been implicated as a potential therapeutic target in a variety of cancers neurodegenerative disorders metabolic dysregulation and autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. Several nonselective ...
Comparative Study of Active Power Curtailment Methods of PVs for Preventing Overvoltage on Distribution Feeders
(IEEE, 2018)
Overvoltage is one of the major issues on distribution grids with high penetration of photovoltaic (PV) generation. Overvoltage could be prevented through the control of active/reactive power of PVs. However given the high ...
Determinants of Investment in Turkey: A Firm-Level Investigation
(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019)
In this article we analyze the financing constraints-investment link for the case of Turkey between 1996 and 2013. As different from the existing studies on Turkey we use a more comprehensive data set that includes both ...
