Parental scaffolding as a bootstrapping mechanism for learning grasp affordances and imitation skills
(Cambridge University Press, 2015-06)
Parental scaffolding is an important mechanism that speeds up infant sensorimotor development. Infants pay stronger attention to the features of the objects highlighted by parents, and their manipulation skills develop ...
Pressure drop and heat transfer characteristics of nanofluids in horizontal microtubes under thermally developing flow conditions
(Elsevier, 2015-10)
This study presents pressure drop and heat transfer characteristics of water based nanofluids with TiO2 and Al2O3 nanoparticles of various mass fractions in horizontal smooth hypodermic microtubes with an outer diameter ...
Near- to far-field coherent thermal emission by surfaces coated by nanoparticles and the evaluation of effective medium theory
(The Optical Society, 2015)
Near-field thermal radiation may play significant role in the enhancement of energy harvesting and radiative cooling by new types of designer materials, which in turn can be crucial in the development of future devices. ...
Thermal and optical performance of eco-friendly silk fibroin proteins as a cavity encapsulation over LED systems
(ASME, 2015)
The demand for high power LEDs for illumination applications is increasing. LED package encapsulation is one of most critical materials that affect the optical path of the generated light by LEDs, and may result in lumen ...
Consequences of reversing the European Union integration
(Wiley, 2015-01)
Today, financial crisis once again threatens the unity among member states and future of the European Union. The magnitude of the problem is so grave that observers and analysts have concluded a big decision must be made ...
Cross-efficiency in DEA: a maximum resonated appreciative model
(Elsevier, 2015-03)
The occurrence of multiple optimal solutions is an important and interesting issue in data envelopment analysis (DEA), for it allows flexibility to estimate the optimal cross-efficiencies of all decision making units (DMUs). ...
The two settings of kind and wicked learning environments
(Association for Psychological Science, 2015-10)
Inference involves two settings: In the first, information is acquired (learning); in the second, it is applied (predictions or choices). Kind learning environments involve close matches between the informational elements ...
Chemical mechanical planarization studies on gallium nitride for improved performance
(IEEE, 2015)
In this study, a systematic experimental approach has been followed to determine the conditions to promote material removal rate while controlling surface defectivity for GaN CMP. Silica based slurries were used to optimize ...
Chemical mechanical polishing implementation on dental implants
(IEEE, 2015)
In this study, chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) technique is introduced as a new alternative to generate controlled nano/micro scale roughness on the titanium implant surfaces. It is known that micro scale patterns ...
An approach for the design of smart tools and environments based on networked experiences
(IEEE, 2015)
Fast improvements in information communication technologies and demanding market conditions trigger the development of most digital services and products, which have been discussed for their adverse effects on their users ...
