Performance Analysis of FSO Communications With Diversity Methods by Abou-Rjeily, Chadi

“…By comparing the MIMO and cooperative methods with point receivers, we reach the central result that it is always better, from a diversity gain point of view, to add more apertures to the source and destination rather than adding more relays in their vicinity despite the fact that the fading variance along FSO links decreases with the distance. …”

An Experimental Investigation of the Effects of Dressing and Grinding Parameters on Sustainable Grinding of Inconel 738 Used for Automated Manufacturing by Mohammadjafar Hadad (17541345)

“…<p dir="ltr">The significant effect of the dressing process on the surface of the grinding wheel (GW) and the need to provide an optimal dressing condition are the requirements of reduction machining time and energy consumption in the sustainable grinding process. …”

Self-assembly of Pseudo-Dipolar Nanoparticles at Low Densities and Strong Coupling by Mariano E. Brito (18622741)

“…Furthermore, our results give insights about the dynamically-arrested nature of the string-gel regime, where we show that the slow relaxation takes place in minuscule energy steps that reflect local rearrangements of the network.…”

The effect of the local inertial term on the fluid flow in channels partially filled with porous material by Abu-Hijleh, B.A.

“…Also, it is found that the deviation between the predictions of the transient and the quasi-steady models is more significant in the porous domain and the deviation decreases as the time proceeds.…”
