Weak generalized and numerical solution for a quasilinear pseudo-parabolic equation with nonlocal boundary condition
(Springer International Publishing, 2014)
This paper investigates the one dimensional mixed problem with nonlocal boundary conditions for the quasilinear parabolic equation. Under some natural regularity and consistency conditions on the input data the existence ...
Design of Practical Broadband Matching Networks With Mixed Lumped and Distributed Elements
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2014)
Computer-aided design (CAD) tools are always preferred for designing broadband matching networks. However these tools give excellent results when the suitable matching network topology and initial element values are provided. ...
Nutrient Dynamics in Flooded Wetlands. I: Model Development
(ASCE-AMER SOC CIVIL ENGINEERS, 2013)
Wetlands are rich ecosystems recognized for ameliorating floods improving water quality and providing other ecosystem benefits. This part of a two-paper series presents a relatively detailed process-based model for nitrogen ...
Nutrient Dynamics in Flooded Wetlands. II: Model Application
(ASCE-AMER SOC CIVIL ENGINEERS, 2013)
In this paper the authors applied and evaluated the wetland nutrient model that was described in Paper I. Hydrologic and water quality data from a small restored wetland located on Kent Island Maryland which is part of the ...
Exploiting heterogeneous parallelism with the Heterogeneous Programming Library
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2013)
While recognition of the advantages of heterogeneous computing is steadily growing the issues of programmability and portability hinder its exploitation. The introduction of the OpenCL standard was a major step forward in ...
Acculturation Attitudes and Social Adjustment in British South Asian Children: A Longitudinal Study
(Sage Publications Inc, 2013)
A 1-year longitudinal study with three testing points was conducted with 215 British Asian children aged 5 to 11 years to test hypotheses from Berry's acculturation framework. Using age-appropriate measures of acculturation ...
Fluorescence quenching method for monitoring oxygen diffusion into PS/CNT composite films
(Elsevier Science SA, 2013)
Oxygen permeabilities of nanocomposite films consisting of multi wall carbon nanotubes (MWNT) and polystyrene (PS) were determined to investigate the oxygen diffusion depending on MWNT and temperature. A method which is ...
Conditional Power and Rate Adaptation for MQAM/OFDM Systems Under CFO With Perfect and Imperfect Channel Estimation Errors
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2015)
In this paper a new conditional power and rate adaptation scheme for orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems is proposed in the presence of carrier frequency offset (CFO) with perfect and imperfect channel ...
Secondhand smoke in waterpipe tobacco venues in Istanbul Moscow and Cairo
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2019)
Objective: The prevalence of waterpipe tobacco smoking has risen in recent decades. Controlled studies suggest that waterpipe secondhand smoke (SHS) contains similar or greater quantities of toxicants than cigarette SHS ...
Transmembrane helix 6 observed at the interface of beta(2)AR homodimers in blind docking studies
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2015)
Peptide- and protein-protein dockings were carried out on beta(2)-adrenergic receptor (beta(2)AR) to confirm the presence of transmembrane helix 6 (TM6) at the interface region between two beta(2)AR monomers thereby its ...
