Humans are Well Tuned to Detecting Agents Among Non-agents: Examining the Sensitivity of Human Perception to Behavioral Characteristics of Intentional Systems
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2015 , Article)
For efficient social interactions, humans have developed means to predict and understand others' behavior often with reference to intentions and desires. To infer others' intentions, however, one must assume that the other ...
Cholinergic and dopaminergic neuronal differentiation of human adipose tissue derived mesenchymal stem cells.
(
Wiley
, 2018 , Article)
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent cells that can differentiate into various cell types such as cartilage, bone, and fat cells. Recent studies have shown that induction of MSCs in vitro by growth factors including ...
Passive pre-cooling potential for reducing building air-conditioning loads in hot climates
(
American Society of Heating, Refrigeration, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
A major source of energy consumption in the building sector is the extensive use of Heating, Ventilation and Air-Conditioning (HVAC) systems to meet the rising demands for indoor comfort. Advancements in reducing cooling ...
Editorial: Reconfigurable Manufacturing Systems-What can Industrial Engineering and Management do?
(
OMICS International
, 2012 , Article)
Towards the end of the 20thcentrury, the concept of reconfigurable manufacturing systems (RMSs) rocked the world of manufacturing and promised a global revolution in the 21stcentury manufacturing landscape. Since then, a ...
Oleic acid-grafted chitosan/graphene oxide composite coating for corrosion protection of carbon steel
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
An anticorrosion coating film based on the formation of nanocomposite coating is reported in this study. The composite consisted of chitosan (green matrix), oleic acid, and graphene oxide (nano filler). The nanocomposite ...
Stress analysis in functionally graded rotating disks with non-uniform thickness and variable angular velocity
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
Stress field in functionally graded (FG) rotating disks with non-uniform thickness and variable angular velocity is studied numerically. The elastic modulus and mass density of the disks are assumed to be varying along the ...
Electrodeposition of flower-like platinum on electrophoretically grown nitrogen-doped graphene as a highly sensitive electrochemical non-enzymatic biosensor for hydrogen peroxide detection
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
An efficient non-enzymatic biosensor electrode consisting of nitrogen-doped graphene (N-graphene) and platinum nanoflower (Pt NF) with different N-graphene loadings were fabricated on indium tin oxide (ITO) glass using a ...
Electropolymerization of poly(aniline-co-p-toluidine) on copper and its application as a corrosion inhibitor
(
Emerald Group Publishing Ltd.
, 2014 , Article)
This paper aims to compare the inhibitive effects of polyaniline (PAni), poly(p-toluidine) and poly(aniline-co-p-toluidine) in hydrochloric acid (HCl) solution.

Application of Fatty Acid Based Phase-Change Material to Reduce Energy Consumption from Roofs of Buildings
(
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
, 2016 , Article)
Buildings account for a significant portion of the total energy consumption in the U.S., especially the energy-inefficient commercial building sector. As part of the future path toward realizing net zero energy buildings, ...
Distribution-Free Adaptive Step-Down Procedure for Fault Identification
(
Wiley
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Identifying the faulty variables of the out-of-control signal in high-dimensional process is an important problem for quality control areas. Even though there have been several procedures for fault variable identifications, ...
