Migration regime and “language part of work”: Experiences of Syrian refugees as surplus population in the Turkish labor market
(Sage, 2020-10)
The literature on migration, language and employment is dominated by the human capital approach and promotes multilingualism as a universal good. This paper examines the relationship between language and work for migrants ...
A review of optical and radiative properties of nanoparticle suspensions: effects of particle stability, agglomeration, and sedimentation
(Begell House Inc., 2020)
Nanoparticle suspensions (NPSs) are suspensions of nanosize particles in base fluids in the form of a solid-liquid mixture. They are used extensively in a wide range of industrial and engineering applications, and show ...
Helping supervisees use their self in their clinical work: the person-of-the-therapist training model (POTT) in supervision
(Taylor & Francis, 2020-08)
Despite evidence of the importance of self-of-the-therapist factors for positive clinical outcomes, supervisors interested in helping their supervisees enhance their therapeutic effectiveness by honing their use of self ...
Taking inventory changes into account while negotiating in supply chain management
(SciTePress, 2020)
In a supply chain environment, supply chain entities need to make joint decisions on the transaction of goods under the issues quantity, delivery time and unit price in order to procure/sell goods at right quantities and ...
Preparation and characterization of freely-suspended graphene nanomechanical membrane devices with quantum dots for point-of-care applications
(MDPI, 2020-01-01)
We demonstrate freely suspended graphene-based nanomechanical membranes (NMMs) as acoustic sensors in the audible frequency range. Simple and low-cost procedures are used to fabricate NMMs with various thicknesses based ...
Multi-criteria performance evaluation of a glass panel system using full-scale experimental data
(Taylor & Francis, 2020-11-01)
In order to better evaluate the lifetime performance of glass panel facade systems, this study firstly proposes to conduct a full-scale wind resistance, air/water infiltration, and seismic resistance tests. Two specimens ...
Riding a long green wave: interdisciplinary environmental sciences and studies in higher education
(Taylor & Francis, 2020)
What accounts for the remarkable growth of environmental sciences and studies (ESS) in US higher education over the past 50 years? This paper focuses on institutional characteristics to explain this 'long green wave' of ...
Experimental evaluation of a software defined visible light communication system
(IEEE, 2020)
Visible light communication (VLC) allows the dual use of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) for illumination and communication purposes. With its large bandwidth and immunity to electromagnetic interference, VLC can be used as ...
Active compliance control reduces upper body effort in exoskeleton-supported walking
(IEEE, 2020-04)
This article presents a locomotion controller for lower limb exoskeletons so as to enable the combined robot and user system to exhibit compliant walking characteristics when interacting with the environment. This is of ...
Multi-hop quantum key distribution with passive relays over underwater turbulence channels
(The Optical Society, 2020-12-01)
Absorption, scattering, and turbulence experienced in underwater channels severely limit the range of quantum communication links. In this paper, as a potential solution to overcome range limitations, we investigate a ...
