Energy dissipation and performance assessment of double damped outriggers in tall buildings under strong earthquakes
(Structural Design of Tall and Special Buildings, 2019)
The use of a single set of outriggers equipped with oil viscous dampers increases the damping ratio of tall buildings in about 6–10%, depending on the loading conditions. However, could this ratio be further increased by ...
An experimental study of solar thermal system with storage for domestic applications
(Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Sciences, 2018)
Building sector consumes a greater portion of energy for heating and cooling applications. The utilization of fossil fuels for space and water heating in buildings cause a negative effect on the environment by producing ...
Effects of chitosan edible coatings enriched with sumac on the quality and the shelf life of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss, Walbaum, 1792) fillets
(Journal of Food Safety, 2018)
Effects of chitosan coating combined with sumac on the quality of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) fillets stored in refrigerated condition (4°C) for 12 days were evaluated. The treatments in this study were—T1, control; ...
Minimizing losses in milk supply chain with sustainability: An example from an emerging economy
(Resources, Conservation and Recycling, 2018)
Food loss in supply chain is a growing problem due to its environmental, social and economic impacts. Especially in emerging economies losses mostly occur in the first stages of the supply chain including agricultural ...
The Pseudorandom Number Generator Generation Method with Genetic Programming for Lightweight Devices
(UBMK 2018 - 3rd International Conference on Computer Science and Engineering, 2018)
In this research, a genetic programming (GP) method is proposed for producing pseudorandom number generators (PRNG) for lightweight devices, especially wireless identification and sensing platform (WISP) family devices. ...
Strategies can be expensive too! The value spread and asset allocation in global equity markets
(Applied Economics, 2018)
Is the value spread useful for forecasting returns on quantitative equity strategies for country selection? To test this, we examine a sample of 120 country-level equity strategies replicated within 72 stock markets for ...
Speeding up Huff form of elliptic curves
(Designs, Codes, and Cryptography, 2018)
This paper presents faster inversion-free point addition formulas for the curve y(1 + ax2) = cx(1 + dy2). The proposed formulas improve the point doubling operation count record (I, M, S, D, a are arithmetic operations ...
Software Evolution or Software Enhancement?
(UBMK 2018 - 3rd International Conference on Computer Science and Engineering, 2018)
In the software engineering, we use the words 'evolution', 'improvement', 'enhancement', 'development', 'change' or 'maintenance' to emphasize the activities after the delivery of a software product. These isomorphic words ...
Design and Implementation of Substrate Integrated Waveguide Filter to Work on X-Band and Ku-Band
(UWBUSIS 2018 - 2018 9th International Conference on Ultrawideband and Ultrashort Impulse Signals, Proceedings, 2018)
In this paper, the microstrip to Substrate Integrated Waveguide(SIW) transition bandpass filter is designed and fabricated. It can be used in satellite communication, 5G and radar technology. SIW waveguide conditions and ...
Time-delay-induced instabilities and Hopf bifurcation analysis in 2-neuron network model with reaction–diffusion term
(Neurocomputing, 2018)
In this paper, we consider a general 2-neuron network model with reaction–diffusion term and time delay. We study the effect of time delay in kinetic terms of reaction–diffusive system. We mainly investigate the effects ...
