Use of biomineralization in self-healing cement-based materials
(2017)
Factors affecting the durability of concrete structures are generally associated with each other. Due to its brittle nature, concrete can crack when stress is applied. Recent research in the field proposes that it might ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Immersion cooling of suspended and coated nano-phosphor particles for extending the limits of optical extraction of light emitting diodes
(2017-08)
Energy efficiency, long life, exceptional color and performance of solid-state light (SSL) sources have resulted in a rapidly increasing trend in a number of practical applications especially for general lighting after a ...
The impact of brand architecture decisions on portfolio sales
(2017-06)
Decisions pertaining to the organization of products under brands within the company's portfolio are an important aspect of brand portfolio strategy with potentially serious top-and bottom-line implications. Despite the ...
Application of chemical mechanical polishing process on titanium based medical implants
(2017-05)
Biomaterials are commonly used as implant materials in the body for dental prostheses, orthopedic applications, heart valves and catheters. Based on the research studies conducted up to date, titanium and its alloys are ...
Thermo-mechanical behavior of severely deformed titanium
(2017-06)
Thermo-mechanical processing of metallic materials has attracted noticeable interest due to the fact that these processing methods can be used to improve the mechanical properties. In this investigation, ultrafine grained ...
Quantifying the spillover of green products on consumer attitudes and umbrella brand sales
(2017-06)
Despite growing consumer attention to the environment, it is still unclear how and how much companies benefit from their large investments in 'green' products. This paper quantifies the positive spillover of sustainable ...
An application of unrelated parallel machine scheduling with sequence-dependent setups at Vestel Electronic
(2017-08)
Vestel Electronics produces LCD/LED televisions and has a significant market share in consumer electronics sector in Europe. TV manufacturing is planned based on a make-to order strategy, and Vestel uses 15 assembly lines ...
