Hybrid plamonic conductor-gap-silicon microring-on-disks electro-optic modulator
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
In this work, we propose a novel design of a double microring-on-disk electro-optic modulator based on hybrid plasmonic conductor-gap-silicon platform utilizing the electromagnetic induced transparency response. The modulator ...
Characterization of GRE pipes fatigue failure subjected to HTHP loading conditions
(
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
GRE composite pipes are a great substitute for Carbon steel, however, obstacles of introducing GRE composite pipes into oil and gas transmission lines have been primarily related to inadequate testing data to maintain ...
Minimizing wind erosion using microbial induced carbonate precipitation
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
This research focuses on investigating the effectiveness of microbial-induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) to reduce the potential for wind erosion. This paper summarizes the results of preliminary wind tunnel experiments. ...
Database Facilitated Screening with NMR Spectroscopy Analysis for Drug Detection
(
IEEE
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
© 2019 IEEE. Drug detection plays the key role in the enforcement of drug regulations. Various detection methods for them are thus developed. However, in most investigations, the most time-consuming and tedious part is not ...
Monitoring Coefficient of Variation Using Progressive Mean Technique
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Control charts are mostly used for the monitoring of process mean and dispersion. In cases, when the process standard deviation is proportional to the mean, it is recommended to use control charts based on coefficient of ...
Results from Lebanon's 2018 Report Card on Physical Activity for Children and Youth
(
Human Kinetics
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
The prevalence of childhood obesity in Lebanon nearly doubled between 1997 and 2009.1 This shift in population health is extremely alarming, given that obesity is associated with a host of chronic diseases (eg, cardiovascular ...
BlockTag: Design and applications of a tagging system for blockchain analysis
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Annotating blockchains with auxiliary data is useful for many applications. For example, criminal investigation of darknet marketplaces, such as Silk Road and Agora, typically involves linking Bitcoin addresses, from which ...
Tweet sentiment analysis with pronoun choice reveals online community dynamics in response to crisis events
(
Springer Verlag
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
We describe the emergence of an online community from naturally occurring social media data. Our method uses patterns of word choice in an online social platform to characterize how a community forms in response to adverse ...
Enhancing passive UHF RFID backscatter energy using chirp spread spectrum signals and channel shortening
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Performance of passive ultrahigh frequency radio-frequency identification (UHF RFID) systems depends on the energy level of the backscattered signal from the RF tag to the RFID reader. In the indoor environment, the ...
Near infrared plasmonic sensor based on Fano resonance
(
SPIE
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
We introduce a compact plasmonic resonator that is capable of generating a Fano resonance in the transmission spectrum. The Fano resonance is observed with its unique lineshape. The proposed design is simple, compact, easy ...
