Lignite resources of Turkey: Geology reserves and exploration history
(Elsevier Science, 2014)
This article aims to emphasize the importance of lignite which is the mostly used domestic energy source in the Turkish energy mix by briefly overviewing its geology reserves and exploration. Lignites are distributed in ...
A Computerized Recognition System for the Home-Based Physiotherapy Exercises Using an RGBD Camera
(IEEE, 2014)
Computerized recognition of the home based physiotherapy exercises has many benefits and it has attracted considerable interest among the computer vision community. However most methods in the literature view this task as ...
Information theoretical performance limits of single-carrier underwater acoustic systems
(Inst Engineering Technology-IET, 2014)
In this study the authors investigate the information theoretical limits on the performance of point-to-point single-carrier acoustic systems over frequency-selective underwater channels with intersymbol interference. Under ...
Compressive sensing for ultra-wideband channel estimation: on the sparsity assumption of ultra-wideband channels
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014)
Due to the sparse structure of ultra-wideband (UWB) multipath channels there has been a considerable amount of interest in applying the compressive sensing (CS) theory to UWB channel estimation. The main consideration of ...
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 ...
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 ...
