Some remarks on the stability and instability properties of solitary waves for the double dispersion equation
(Estonian Academy of Sciences, 2015)
In this article we give a review of our recent results on the instability and stability properties of travelling wave solutions of the double dispersion equation utt − uxx + auxxxx − buxxtt = −(|u|p−1u)xx for p > 1, a ≥ b ...
Staged development of robot skills: behavior formation, affordance learning and imitation
(IEEE, 2015-06)
Inspired by infant development, we propose a three staged developmental framework for an anthropomorphic robot manipulator. In the first stage, the robot is initialized with a basic reach-and- enclose-on-contact movement ...
Unidirectional wave motion in a nonlocally and nonlinearly elastic medium: The KdV, BBM and CH equations
(Estonian Academy of Sciences, 2015)
We consider unidirectional wave propagation in a nonlocally and nonlinearly elastic medium whose constitutive equation is given by a convolution integral with a suitable kernel function. We first give a brief review of ...
Engineering with and for light absorption and scattering: a quarter century of experimental research at RTL
(Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti, 2011)
Characterization of particles requires detailed understanding of light interaction with homogeneous/inhomogeneous and regular/irregular shaped particles, or fractallike structures, within optically thin or thick media. ...
Discrete dipole approximation of gold nanospheres on substrates: considerations and comparison with other discretization methods
(AAPP Physical, Mathematical, and Natural Sciences, 2011)
We embark on this preliminary study of the suitability of the discrete dipole approximation with surface interaction (DDA-SI) method to model electric field scattering from noble metal nano-structures on dielectric substrates. ...
A social and spatial restructuring in inner-city residential areas: the case of Istanbul
(2011)
In Turkey over the last twenty years, the disruptive quality of such restructuring processes has been exacerbated by the government’s decision to embrace urban transformation as a tool to speed the country’s integration ...
Design workshops as a tool for informal architectural education
(Open House International Association, 2015)
Although the design studio has formally been the locus for design education, informal education approach has gained more and more acceptance in the world. Informal education, which is the education outside the confines of ...
Istanbul as a palimpsest city and imperfection
(ITU, 2013)
The first Istanbul Design Biennial with the theme of “Imperfection” took place between 13 October and 12 December, 2012. The theme of “Imperfection” was attempted to be read through Istanbul during the Biennial organised ...
Search for supersymmetry in events with b-quark jets and missing transverse energy in pp collisions at 7 TeV
(American Physical Society, 2012-10-01)
Results are presented from a search for physics beyond the standard model based on events with large missing transverse energy, at least three jets, and at least one, two, or three b-quark jets. The study is performed using ...
Controlling germanium CMP selectivity through slurry mediation by surface active agents
(The Electrochemical Society, 2015-08-10)
New developments and device performance requirements in microelectronics industry add to the challenges in chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) process. One of the recently introduced materials to semiconductor manufacturing ...
