FASStR: A framework for ensuring high-quality operational metrics in health care
(Managed Care & Healthcare Communications, LLC, 2020-06)
OBJECTIVES: Poorly defined measurement impairs interinstitutional comparison, interpretation of results, and process improvement in health care operations. We sought to develop a unifying framework that could be used by ...
Outage performance of mixed RF-FSO systems over DGG and nakagami-m channels
(IEEE, 2020-12)
In mixed RF (radio frequency)-FSO (free space optical) systems, the FSO link is used for backhauling while RF is used for wireless access. In many practical deployment scenarios especially in urban environments, more than ...
Experimental validation of a novel RLL code for visible light communication
(IEEE, 2020)
Flicker arising in visible light communication (VLC) system is typically mitigated by run-length-limited (RLL) codes. The IEEE 802.15.7 standard proposes RLL codes according to the modulation type and data rate. In this ...
An experimental and theoretical analysis of vapor-to-liquid phase change on microstructured surfaces
(Elsevier, 2020-09)
In this work, an experimental and a theoretical study was carried out on condensation heat transfer on vertically aligned bare unstructured, micro V-grooved and square-grooved copper substrates. During the experiments, ...
Investigation of the effect of particle stability on the transport properties and thermal behavior of ethylene glycol-water/SiO2 binary nanofluids
(IOP Publishing, 2020-04-09)
Nanofluids (Nfs) are considered as an effective working media in different thermal processes. Over the years, much attention has been paid to the problem of nanoparticle stability in base fluids in an unconfined area of ...
Comparison of nonlocal nonlinear wave equations in the long-wave limit
(Taylor & Francis, 2020-11-17)
We consider a general class of convolution-type nonlocal wave equations modeling bidirectional nonlinear wave propagation. The model involves two small positive parameters measuring the relative strengths of the nonlinear ...
Running of the top quark mass from proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV
(Elsevier, 2020-04-10)
The running of the top quark mass is experimentally investigated for the first time. The mass of the top quark in the modified minimal subtraction ((MS) over bar) renormalization scheme is extracted from a comparison of ...
Structural equation model of occupant satisfaction for evaluating the performance of office buildings
(Springer Nature, 2020-08)
Measuring occupant satisfaction and collecting feedback is critical for evaluating building performance, shaping comfort, effective decision-making in building improvements, and consequently enhancing the well-being of ...
The effects of social ties on innovation behavior and new product performance in emerging economies: evidence from Turkey
(Emerald Publishing Limited, 2020-04-08)
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to offer a theoretical and empirical understanding of how social ties affect innovation behavior and new product performance in Turkey, which is an emerging economy where high levels ...
A branch‐and‐cut approach for the least cost influence problem on social networks
(Wiley, 2020-07)
This paper studies a problem in the online targeted marketing setting called the least cost influence problem (LCIP) that is known to be NP-hard. The goal is to find the minimum total amount of inducements (individuals to ...
