Methods and approaches on inferring human emotional stress changes through physiological signals: A review
(Inderscience Enterprises Ltd, 2013)
Emotional stress is kind of stressful state which is developed due to the continuous occurrence of negative emotions such as sad, disgust, angry and fear over a long period of time. In this work, a detailed investigation ...
Pollen load affects quality of red-fleshed dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus)
(International Society for Horticultural Science (ISHS), 2013-11-15)
Dragon fruits are graded and priced according to fruit weight. Large fruit is not necessarily demanded by consumers especially small families. Currently the demanded size for dragon fruit is about 300 g per fruit. However, ...
Mathematical model of elastic crack interaction and two-dimensional finite element analysis based on Griffith energy release rate
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Stress shielding interaction effect of two parallel edge cracks in finite body under uniaxial loading is analysed using developed finite element (FE) analysis program. In present study, the stress shielding interaction is ...
Extended reliability of gold and copper ball bonds in microelectronic packaging
(World Gold Council, 2013-06)
Wire bonding is the predominant mode of interconnection in microelectronic packaging. Gold wire bonding has been refined again and again to retain control of interconnect technology due to its ease of workability and years ...
The use of a human body model to determine the variation of path losses in the human body channel in wireless capsule endoscopy
(Progress in Electromagnetics Research (PIER), 2013)
Presently, wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) is the sole technology for inspecting the human gastrointestinal (GI) tract for diseases painlessly and in a non-invasive way. For the further development of WCE, the main concern ...
The effect of sintering temperature on mechanical properties of Al/SiC composites
(Praise Worthy Prize S.r.l., 2013)
This paper presents the investigation of the effect of sintering temperature on mechanical properties of Al/SiC composites. The composites were produced via conventional powder metallurgy processing. The particle size of ...
Precise alignment of individual single-walled carbon nanotube using dielectrophoresis method for development and fabrication of pH sensor
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2013)
Development and fabrication of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) based pH sensor were reported. The precise alignment of individual SWNT using dielectrophoresis method between the two microgap electrodes was conducted, ...
Tensile properties of polypropylene/cocoa pod husk biocomposites: Effect of maleated polypropylene
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Polypropylene/Cocoa Pod Husk (PP/CPH) biocomposites with different maleated polypropylene (MAPP) content were prepared via melt blending process using Brabender Plastrograph mixer. The tensile strength and tensile modulus ...
The environmental risk and water pollution: A review from the river basins around the world
(AENSI Publications, 2013-01)
"Water for Life" has declared as the International Decade (2005 to 2015) for Action for water by the United Nations General Assembly in 2005. Because of the rapid increase in demand for water, and increase in occurrences ...
Effect of maleic anhydride-grafted-polyethylene (MAPE) and silane on properties of recycled polyethylene/chitosan biocomposites
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2013-01)
Chitosan-filled recycled polyethylene biocomposites were prepared using an internal mixer. The effect of maleic anhydride-grafted-polyethylene (MAPE) and silane of recycled polyethylene (RPE)/chitosan biocomposites on ...
