T-matrix method for modelling optical tweezers
(Taylor & Francis, 2011)
We review the use of the T-matrix description of scattering, or the T-matrix method, for the calculation of optical forces and torques, especially for the computational modelling of optical tweezers. We consider both simple ...
Radiative transfer configuration factor catalog: a listing of relations for common geometries
(Elsevier, 2011-03)
An on-line compilation of radiation configuration factors for over 300 common geometries is provided as a supplementary material from the JQSRT web site at doi:10.1016/j.jqsrt.2010.10.002. The factors are gathered from ...
Effect of slurry aging on stability and performance of chemical mechanical planarization process
(Elsevier, 2011-03)
Chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) is known to be one of the most challenging processes in microelectronics manufacturing due to the number of variables involved in the design of the process. In particular, the slurries ...
Estimating quantitative features of nanoparticles using multiple derivatives of scattering profiles
(Elsevier, 2011-05)
Characterization of nanoparticles on surfaces is a challenging in verse problem whose solution has many practical applications. This article proposes a method, suitable for in situ characterization systems, for estimating ...
Designing new electoral districts for the city of Edmonton
(Informs, 2011-12-11)
Every few years, the city of Edmonton, Canada must review and evaluate changes to its electoral district boundaries. The review process that was completed in 2009 resulted in modifying the district plan from a six-ward ...
Marketing's profit impact: quantifying online and off-line funnel progression
(Informs, 2011)
Inofec, a small- to medium-sized enterprise in the business-to-business sector, desired a more analytic approach to allocate marketing resources across communication activities and channels. We developed a conceptual ...
Do hedge funds’ exposures to risk factors predict their future returns?
(Elsevier, 2011-07)
This paper investigates hedge funds’ exposures to various financial and macroeconomic risk factors through alternative measures of factor betas and examines their performance in predicting the crosssectional variation in ...
Accelerated learning of user profiles
(Informs, 2011-02)
Websites typically provide several links on each page visited by a user. Whereas some of these links help users easily navigate the site, others are typically used to provide targeted recommendations based on the available ...
On the performance analysis of multirelay cooperative diversity systems with channel estimation errors
(IEEE, 2011-06)
In this paper, we investigate the performance of an amplify-and-forward (AF) cooperative diversity system with multiple relays in the presence of channel estimation errors. We consider both conventional relaying (in which ...
Exact approaches for integrated aircraft fleeting and routing at TunisAir
(Science+Business Media, 2011-06)
We describe models and exact solutions approaches for an integrated aircraft fleeting and routing problem arising at TunisAir. Given a schedule of flights to be flown, the problem consists of determining a minimum cost ...
