A personal navigation system using mems-based high-density ground reaction sensor array and inertial measurement unit
(IEEE, 2015)
This paper describes a prototype personal navigation system developed for position tracking under GPS denied environments by employing a commercial inertial measurement unit (IMU) and a MEMS-based ground reaction sensor ...
An experimental study of impinging synthetic jets for heat transfer augmentation
(World Scientific Publishing Co, 2015-07)
According to recent trends in the field of miniature electronics, the need for compact cooling solutions compatible with very thin profiles and small footprint areas is inevitable. Impinging synthetic jets are recognized ...
Integrated engineering and architecture for the energy efficient academic buildings
(International Building Performance Simulation Association, 2015-12)
In this paper, we outline a comprehensive and integrated collaboration between engineering and architecture team to build an energy efficient building. Within the framework of the EU FP7 project, titled NEED4B, we have ...
Design and modeling of a parallel robot for ultrasound guided percutaneous needle interventions
(IEEE, 2015)
Necessity of precise positioning in percutaneous needle operations enables robotic systems to take part in medical procedures. Researches that have been done until today showed robotic systems increase the accuracy of ...
Polyethylenimine modified and non-modified polymeric micelles used for nasal administration of carvedilol
(American Scientific Publishers, 2015)
This study evaluates the ability of polyethylenimine-modified and non-modified polymeric micelles to enhance permeation through the nasal mucosa for a highly hydrophobic model drug. Carvedilol was loaded into polyethylen ...
Special Issue on the Second International Workshop on Micro- and Nano-Scale Thermal Radiation
(Elsevier, 2015-06)
Micro- and nano-scale thermal radiation has become one of the fastest growing research areas because of advances in nanotechnology and the development of novel materials. The related research and development includes ...
From passive to active pitch regulation of wind turbines: Optimization method with numerical validation
(ASME, 2015)
An optimization method that changes the control strategy of the Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine (HAWT) from passive- to active-pitch has been developed. The method aims to keep the rated power constant by adjusting the blade ...
Nano-boron as an antibacterial agent for functionalized textiles
(Cambridge University Press, 2015-01)
The antibacterial properties of boron-containing compounds are well known although there are limited studies available on the pure boron nanoparticles. In this study boron nano-particles were characterized in terms of their ...
Natural convection immersion cooling with enhanced optical performance of light-emitting diode systems
(2015-10-15)
Electronics driven at high currents may experience local hot spots, which may cause thermal degradation or even catastrophic failures. This common problem occurs at light-emitting diode (LED) chips and it is not easily ...
A computational study on the momentum and heat transfer distribution of a low frequency round impinging synthetic jet
(ASME, 2015)
Impinging synthetic jets have been considered as a possible solution for cooling miniature structures. It has been shown that synthetic jet performance is sensitive to the distance between the jet nozzle and the target ...
