Mapping of Embedded Functionalized Carbon Nanotubes in Poly(vinyl alcohol)/Nanotube Composite Using Electrostatic Force Microscopy
(Taylor & Francis, 2012)In the present study, electrostatic force microscopy (EFM) was used as a nondestructive tool for mapping individual functionalized single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) incorporated in a poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/CNT ... -
Marine Sponges, Other Animal Food, and Nonfood Items Found in Digestive Tracts of the Herbivorous Marine Turtle Chelonia mydas in Hawai'i
(2011-07)Although the usual diet of Chelonia mydas comes from algae and sea grasses (plant material), animal material has been found in samples taken over the past 35 yr. The small black-brown protein sponge Chondrosia chucalla ... -
A Market Efficiency Comparison of Islamic and Non-Islamic Stock Indices
(Taylor & Francis Online, 2015)This article examines the martingale difference hypothesis (MDH) and the random walk hypothesis (RWH) for nine conventional and nine Islamic stock indices: Asia-Pacific, Canadian, Developed Country, Emerging, European, ... -
Market Efficiency of Floating Exchange Rate Systems: Some Evidence from Pacific-Asian Countries
(Elsevier, 2011)This paper examines the random walk hypothesis (RWH) and the martingale difference hypothesis (MDH) for the Australian dollar and five Asian emerging currencies relative to three benchmark currencies. We use Wright’s (2000) ... -
Martingale problem for superprocesses with non-classical branching functional
(Elsevier, 2006)The martingale problem for superprocesses with parameters (𝛏, Ф, 𝑘) is studied where 𝑘(𝒹𝑠) may not be absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure. This requires a generalization of the concept of ... -

Material Selection and Process Design Optimization Framework under Closed-Loop Supply Chain
(2012-01)With an industrial era characterized by new regulations aiming at protecting costumers and the global environment, manufacturers have to be more effective in delivering products that meet customers requirement but also, ... -
MaterialNature: An Opportunistic Paradigm of Architecture and Landscape Ecology
(CUBE Srl, 2017-11)In this space, small-scale coastal erosion, and natural growth become the vehicle for project based architectural speculation that leverages the resources of local landscapes and creates a new architectural trajectory based ... -
Mathematical Modeling and Experimental Breakthrough Curves of Carbon Dioxide Adsorption on Metal Organic Framework CPM-5
(ACS, 2013-07)It is essential to capture carbon dioxide from flue gas because it is considered one of the main causes of global warming. Several materials and different methods have been reported for CO2 capturing including adsorption ... -
Mathematical Modeling of COVID-19 Transmission and Vaccination: The Case of UAE
(2022-06)Mathematical models are widely used in simulating infectious diseases. They are employed to investigate the disease transmission dynamics, forecast its spreading pattern, check the effectiveness of the interventions, or ... -
Mathematical modeling of microbubble cavitation at 70 kHz and the importance of the subharmonic in drug delivery from micelles
(Elsevier, 2013)In order to gain insight into the experimental observation of ultrasound-induced release of drugs from micelles, we modeled the dynamic oscillations of a 10-μm-diameter bubble insonated at 70 kHz. The Parlitz modification ... -
Matrix Encoding for Data Hiding Using Multilayer Video Coding and Transcoding Solutions
(Elsevier, 2012)This paper proposes a multitier data hiding solution in MPEG video using matrix encoding. In the first tier of the proposed solution, raw video is encoded into two layers using multilayer Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) encoding. ... -
A Maturity Model for a Sustainable Construction Industry
(2014-01)Although the construction industry has provided societies with facilities and infrastructure projects that meet their needs and fulfill their requirements, created up to 7% of the world's job opportunities, accounted for ... -
Maximum principles and overdetermined problems for Hessian equations
(ISTE Group, 2021)In this article we investigate some Hessian type equations. Our main aim is to derive new maximum principles for some suitable P-functions, in the sense of L.E. Payne, that is for some appropriate functional combinations ... -
Maximum-Service Channel Assignment in Vehicular Radar-Communication
(IEEE Access, 2021)Spectrum sharing between different technologies has become a necessity as the RF spectrum has become more congested than ever due to the increasing number of connected devices and applications all wishing to access the ... -
Mazari UAV Adaptive Autopilot System Design and Implementation
(2013-06)Autonomous unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) research started at AUS in 2005. Linear and nonlinear aircraft models and system identification of the aircraft system were developed to design flight control laws. Proportional-i ... -
The Meaning of Huda in the Qur'an with Reference to Three English Translations
(2010-07)Translation of the Holy Qur'an has been a difficult topic for discussion and research by translators and research specialists because of its sacred status. The wording of the Qur'an is so precise that no word is out of ... -
The Meaning of Nazala in the Holy Qur'an
(2015-05)Translating the Qur'an has always been a difficult task which stems from the holy status of the Book as well as the unique use of Arabic language in it. Being a deliberate text, every word in the Qur'an serves a specific ... -
A Measure of Capacity Contribution of Static Mono-Si Photovoltaic Systems
(2013-05)Photovoltaic (PV) systems generate electricity in the daytime when system demand is generally moderate to high. For Mediterranean countries, there is also seasonal coincidence of high system demand and high PV load factors. ...
