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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Determining thermal comfort in built environment using computational fluid dynamics simulations
(2017-06)
In this thesis, three-dimensional time-dependent Thermal Comfort (TC) conditions in an occupied room is investigated and determined. The room is considered with furniture of varying materials (i.e. steel, wood, etc.) and ...
Optimization and analysis of WLAN RF energy harvesting system architecture for low power wireless applications
(2017-01)
The presented work proposes a radio frequency (RF) energy harvesting circuit design, which scavenges energy from WLAN dual frequency band. In comparison to other available sources for energy scavenging, e.g. solar, wind ...
Adolescent disclosure and secrecy behaviors and psychological well-being in parent and best friend relationship contexts: variable- and person-centered examinations
(2017-01)
The present study examined adolescents' disclosure and secrecy behaviors in their close relationships and their psychological well-being (life satisfaction, problem-solving confidence, and (lower) trait anxiety). In a ...
Simulations of droplet impacts on hydrophobic moving walls
(2017-08)
Numerical simulations of water drop impact onto hydrophobic surfaces (Wax, Teflon) are carried out through usage of Eulerian multiphase model. Volume of fluid (VOF) model is used to capture the deformation of the water ...
Modeling of RF energy harvesting and energy consumption system for low power wireless sensor networks
(2017-01)
Recently, with the advancement of technology, there has been a rapid growth of low power wireless devices, such as wireless sensor networks (WSNs) and Internet of Things (IoT). Therefore, the energy requirement for perpetual ...
Human-robot collaboration for synergistic task execution
(2017-05)
There is great potential for human and robot to work together as a team, since this collaboration can take advantage of both human and robot capabilities, cover their weakness and yield a higher performance. We propose and ...
