Poly (styrene) latex/modified na-activated bentonite nanocomposite films: a fluorescence study
(Elsevier Science BV, 2008-12)
We studied film formation of composites of surfactant-free polystyrene (PS) nanoparticles and modified Na-activated bentonite (MLB), by steady state fluorescence (SSF) technique. The films were prepared from a mixture of ...
The routine design-modular distributed modeling platform for distributed routine design and simulation-based testing of distributed assemblies
(Cambridge University Press, 2008-12-12)
In this paper we describe a conceptual framework and implementation of a tool that supports task-directed, distributed routine design (RD) augmented with simulation-based design testing. In our research, we leverage the ...
The limits of the Russian-Iranian strategic alliance: its history and geopolitics, and the nuclear issue
(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2008-03)
The Russian and Iranian governments define their relations as "very close" and "strategic" in many areas. The frontiers of this cooperation, in geopolitical terms, include the south Caucasus, central Asia, Afghanistan, and ...
Weakly non-linear waves in a fluid-filled elastic tube with variable prestretch
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2008-11)
In the present work, by utilizing the non-linear equations of motion of an incompressible, isotropic thin elastic tube subjected to a variable prestretch both in the axial and the radial directions and the approximate ...
Design and performance analysis of a novel trellis coded space-time-frequency OFDM transmission scheme
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2008-01)
In this paper a new transmit diversity technique is proposed for wireless communications over frequency selective fading channels. The proposed technique utilises orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) to transform ...
On the sensitivity of desirability functions for multiresponse optimization
(American Institute of Mathematical Sciences, 2008-11)
Desirability functions have been one of the most important multiresponse optimization technique since the early eighties. Main reasons for this popularity might be counted as the convenience of the implementation of the ...
Thermochemical conversion of bean pods to carbon materials and gas
(Freund Publishing House Ltd, 2008)
The preparation of activated carbons from bean pods by chemical (K(2)CO(3)) and physical (water vapor) activation was investigated. The carbon prepared by chemical activation presented more developed porous structure than ...
Rate-distortion and complexity optimized motion estimation for H.264 video coding
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2008-02)
11.264 video coding standard supports several inter-prediction coding modes that use macroblock (MB) partitions with variable block sizes. Rate-distortion (R-D) optimal selection of both the motion vectors (MVs) and the ...
The politics of population in a nation-building process: emigration of non-Muslims from Turkey
(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2008-02)
Within the politics of nationalism and nation-building, the emigration of ethnic and religious minorities, whether voluntary or involuntary, appears to be a commonly occurring practice. After the collapse of the Ottoman ...
Relocating sensor nodes to maximize cumulative connected coverage in wireless sensor networks
(Molecular Diversity Preservation Int, 2008-04)
In order to extend the availability of the wireless sensor network and to extract maximum possible information from the surveillance area, proper usage of the power capacity of the sensor nodes is important. Our work ...
