Nanoclay compatibilization of phase separated polysulfone/polyimide films for oxygen barrier by Ammar, Ali

“…Thermal decomposition (TGA) measurements of PSF/PI films showed a decrease in thermal stability upon adding C30B due to its surfactant modification, while film mechanical tensile modulus properties improved slightly by adding low concentration of C30B (~ 1 mass%), but higher nanoclay loading decreased tensile strength and elongation at break. …”

Towards energy efficient and quality of service aware cell zooming in 5G wireless networks by Lateef, Hafiz Yasar

“…The exponential growth of mobile data traffic would lead to dense deployment of small base stations and eventually higher energy consumption in Fifth Generation (5G) wireless networks. We formulate a dynamic cell zooming and base stations sleep optimization algorithm for dense heterogeneous networks as a Linear Programming (LP) problem in order to not only minimize the system power consumption but also to guarantee the quality of service to end user. …”
