Synthesis of constructs for modeling consumers' understanding and perception of eco-labels
(© 2014 MDPI AG, 2014)
The term "eco-labeling" has become a buzzword in today's sustainable business world. The use of eco-labeling in various forms has been increasing notably for past many years, sometimes as an environmental "requirement" and ...
Vapor adsorption limitation of graphene nanoribbons in quasi conductance increment: a NEGF approach
(© 2015 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015)
The adsorption of H2O molecules on Armchair Graphene Nanoribbons (A-GNR) was theoretically studied using Non Equilibrium Green Function (NEGF) formalism to determine Device Density of States (DDOS), Electrostatic Effective ...
Exploring the opportunities of a balloon-satellite in Bangladesh for weather data collection and vegetative analysis
(© 2016 IOP Publishing, 2016)
For a third world country like Bangladesh, satellite and space research is not feasible due to lack of funding. Therefore, in order to imitate the principles of such a satellite Balloon Satellite can easily and inexpensively ...
Gold nanoparticles: fabrication by laser ablation technique and their optical and morphological studies
(© 2013 Nova Science Publishers, 2013-01)
Material particles of the size of few nano-meters to couple of hundreds of nano-meters exhibit size and shape dependent properties and the consequent versatility and importance in their use have made them an exciting and ...
Implementation of an Optical Character Reader (OCR) for Bengali language
(© 2016 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2016-03)
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is the process of extracting text from an image. The main purpose of an OCR is to make editable documents from existing paper documents or image files. Significant number of algorithms ...
The health workforce crisis in Bangladesh: shortage, inappropriate skill-mix and inequitable distribution
(© 2011 Ahmed et al; licensee BioMed Central Ltd., 2011)
Bangladesh is identified as one of the countries with severe health worker shortages. However, there is a lack of comprehensive data on human resources for health (HRH) in the formal and informal sectors in Bangladesh. ...
Elemental profiling and identification of eco-toxic elements in agricultural soil by laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy
(© 2013 Science and Education Publishing, 2013-05)
Laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) was used to determine the elemental content and to detect probable eco-toxic elements in agricultural soil in Gazipur, Bangladesh (latitude: 24.0958° N, longitude: 90.4125° E). ...
Neighborhood community and quality of life
(Routledge, 1989)
Metropolitan area residents have increasingly had more opportunities to become personally involved in communities outside of their local neighborhoods. The challenge for community development practitioners is to demonstrate ...
Modeling the energy consumption of a lift
(© 2014 Elsevier B.V., 2014)
A semi-rigorous and generalized model has been developed to determine the electrical energy (Watt-hour) consumed by the motor of a typical lift in each step of an upward or a downward travel cycle. The model has been ...
