Effect of the probe location on the absorption by an array of gold nano-particles on a dielectric surface
(Elsevier, 2017)
Effect of silicon atomic force microscope probe position and particle spacing on the local absorption of an array of gold nanoparticles placed over a dielectric borosilicate glass surface are evaluated. An improved, ...
A design tool for direct and non-stochastic calculations of near-field radiative transfer in complex structures: The NF-RT-FDTD algorithm
(Elsevier, 2017)
Advances in nanotechnology and nanophotonics are inextricably linked with the need for reliable computational algorithms to be adapted as design tools for the development of new concepts in energy harvesting, radiative ...
Subcooled flow boiling heat transfer of γ-Al2O3/water nanofluids in horizontal microtubes and the effect of surface characteristics and nanoparticle deposition
(Elsevier, 2017)
In this study, subcooled flow boiling heat transfer characteristics of nanofluids were investigated at micro scale. For this purpose, the effect of γ-Al2O3 (gamma-alumina) nanoparticles with an average solid diameter of ...
Solving a large-scale integrated fleet assignment and crew pairing problem
(Springer International Publishing, 2017)
Airline schedule planning problems are typically decomposed into smaller problems, which are solved in a sequential manner, due to the complexity of the overall problems. This results in suboptimal solutions as well as ...
Cognition-enabled robot manipulation in human environments: requirements, recent work, and open problems
(IEEE, 2017-09)
Service robots are expected to play an important role in our daily lives as our companions in home and work environments in the near future. An important requirement for fulfilling this expectation is to equip robots with ...
Choquet-Monge-Ampère classes
(Springer Nature, 2017)
We introduce and study Choquet-Monge-Ampère classes on compact Kähler manifolds. They consist of quasi-plurisubharmonic functions whose sublevel sets have small enough asymptotic Monge-Ampère capacity. We compare them with ...
Automated refinement of models for model-based testing using exploratory testing
(Springer International Publishing, 2017-09)
Model-based testing relies on models of the system under test to automatically generate test cases. Consequently, the effectiveness of the generated test cases depends on models. In general, these models are created manually, ...
Availability analysis of software architecture decomposition alternatives for local recovery
(2017)
We present an efficient and easy-to-use methodology to predict—at design time—the availability of systems that support local recovery. Our analysis techniques work at the architectural level, where the software designer ...
Reproducing failures based on semiformal failure scenario descriptions
(Springer International Publishing, 2017)
Due to the increasing size and complexity of software systems, it becomes hard to test these systems exhaustively. As a result, some faults can be left undetected. Undetected faults can lead to failures in deployed systems. ...
Model-based testing of digital TVs: an industry-as-laboratory approach
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2017-12)
Model-based testing is a promising approach for increasing the efficiency of the testing process and for improving software quality. It has been employed in the industry for more than a decade. Nevertheless, there are still ...
