A parametric study on the influence of boundary frame flexibility in steel plate shear walls
(2020-01-17)
Steel plate shear walls (SPSWs) are known to be a reliable lateral force-resisting system, particularly attractive for high-seismic regions, due to their high lateral strength and stiffness and stable hysteretic behavior. ...
Patterned polymer films using soft lithography and micro molding in capillaries (MIMIC)
(2017-05)
This research work reports a low cost method to pattern large area surfaces using soft-lithographic approach through several polymers, particularly with the self-assembly of block co-polymers (BCPs) and also by fabricating ...
Three essays on the behavior of equity market returns
(2016-12)
The first chapter of this thesis analyzes return comovements phenomena known as correlation asymmetry. The phenomena has its two manifests: asymmetric correlations, referring to stock return correlations being higher during ...
Using eigenvoices and nearest-neighbours in HMM-based cross-lingual speaker adaptation with limited data
(2017-08)
Thesis abstract: Cross-lingual speaker adaptation for speech synthesis has many applications, such as use in speech-to-speech translation systems. Here, we focus on cross-lingual adaptation for statistical speech synthesis ...
Effect of electrostatic stabilization on thermal radiation transfer in nanosuspensions: Photo-thermal energy conversion applications
(Elsevier, 2018-04)
Solar thermal collectors are among the most important photo-thermal energy conversion systems. Effectiveness of these systems is measured by the ability of working fluid to absorb incident radiative energy. Although ...
Adaptive OFDM-based acoustic underwater transmission: system design and experimental verification
(2017-08)
In this study, we design and implement an adaptive Underwater Acoustic (UWA) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system employing adaptive modulation and transmit power. Recently, UWA communications gain more ...
Search for top-quark partners with charge 5/3 in the same-sign dilepton final state
(American Physical Society, 2014-05-02)
A search for the production of heavy partners of the top quark with charge 5/3 is performed in events with a pair of same-sign leptons. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 19.5 fb(-1) and was collected ...
Markov-based performance analysis of medium access in visible light communications
(IEEE, 2015)
Visible light communication (VLC) uses the illumination infrastructure to provide high speed wireless connectivity. VLC has recently emerged as a promising alternative/complementary technology to conventional radio-frequency ...
Comparison of blast analysis methods for modular steel structures
(Turkish Chamber of Civil Engineers, 2018-03)
Two blast analysis methods widely used are three-dimensional finite element (FE) and uncoupled equivalent single degree of freedom (ESDOF) methods. The uncoupled equivalent ESDOF method, which is the most common blast ...
Measurement of the t(t)over-bar production cross section in the all-jet final state in pp collisions at root s=7 TeV
(Springer Science+Business Media, 2013-05)
A measurement is presented of the t (t) over bar production cross section (sigma(t (t) over bar)) in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, in the all-jet final state that contains at least six jets, ...
