A Double Dwell Frequency Synchronization Scheme For OFDM Systems
(2015-01)
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is being used in many recent communication systems to cope with the demand for high data rate applications. It provides a significant improvement in the bandwidth efficiency ...
Numerical Analysis for Film Cooling Performance Under Different Jet Design Criteria
(2018-04)
Cooling gas turbine blades is a crucial technique to allow higher turbine inlet temperatures. A higher turbine inlet temperature allows boosting gas turbine efficiency, which reduces fuel consumption. One of the main cooling ...
Control of cardiac alternans by mechanical and electrical feedback
(American Physical Society, 2014)
A persistent alternation in the cardiac action potential duration has been linked to the onset of ventricular arrhythmia, which may lead to sudden cardiac death. A coupling between these cardiac alternans and the intracellular ...
Modeling and simulation of hypothermia effects on cardiac electrical dynamics
(Public Library of Science, 2019)
Previous experimental evidence has shown the effect of temperature on the action potential duration (APD). It has also been demonstrated that regional cooling of the heart can prolong the APD and promote the termination ...
Metronidazole conjugated magnetic nanoparticles loaded with amphotericin B exhibited potent effects against pathogenic Acanthamoeba castellanii belonging to the T4 genotype
(Springer, 2020)
Acanthamoeba castellanii can cause granulomatous amoebic encephalitis and Acanthamoeba keratitis. Currently, no single drug has been developed to effectively treat infections caused by Acanthamoeba. Recent studies have ...

Exercisability Randomization of the American Option
(Taylor & Frances Online, 2008)
The valuation of American options is an optimal stopping time problem which typically leads to a free boundary problem. We introduce here the randomization of the exercisability of the option. This method considerably ...
A European option general first-order error formula
(Cambridge, 2013)
We study the value of European security derivatives in the Black-Scholes model, when the underlying asset 𝛏 is approximated by random walks 𝛏(𝑛). We obtain an explicit error formula, up to a term of order 𝒪(𝑛⁻³/² ), ...
The effect of maps permutation on the global attractor of a periodic Beverton-Holt model
(Elsevier, 2020-04-01)
Consider a p-periodic difference equation xn+1 = fn(xn) with a global attractor. How does a permutation [fσ(p−1), . . . , fσ(1), fσ(0)] of the maps affect the global attractor? In this paper, we limit this general question ...
Gold-Conjugated Curcumin as a Novel Therapeutic Agent against Brain-Eating Amoebae
(ACS Publications, 2020)
Balamuthia mandrillaris and Naegleria fowleri are free-living amoebae that cause infection of the central nervous system, granulomatous amoebic encephalitis (GAE) and primary amoebic meningoencephalitis (PAM), respectively. ...
