Almond and walnut shell-derived biochars affect sorption-desorption, fractionation, and release of phosphorus in two different soils
(2020)Effective soil phosphorus (P) management requires higher level of knowledge concerning its sorption-desorption, fractionation, and release, as well as its interactions with soil amendments including biochar (BC). The purpose ... -
Assessing traffic and environmental impacts of smart lockers logistics measure in a medium-sized municipality of Athens
(2019)Home deliveries and e-commerce activities have increased substantially in the recent years. This fact led to the increase of the number of last mile trips in urban areas contributing immensely to the overall impacts on the ... -
The berth allocation problem with stochastic vessel handling times
(2013)In this paper, the berth allocation problem with stochastic vessel handling times is formulated as a bi-objective problem. To solve the resulting problem, an evolutionary algorithm-based heuristic and a simulation-based ... -
A collaborative city-based game to support soft skills development in engineering and economics
(2021)HERA is an Erasmus+ project aimed at the development of soft skills in higher education engineering and economics students through collaborative serious games. It proposes a digital learning game platform whose goal is to ... -
Collaborative migration, coupling and simulation of water resources models through OpenMI
(2010)The present study describes the migration and coupling of a monthly conceptual rainfall runoff model named UTHBAL and a water reservoir operation model called UTHRL into the OpenMI standard. The models have been introduced ... -
Design and development of innovative physics simulations and teaching materials for the learning of the concept of energy
(2008)This paper describes an innovative educational approach for the teaching of the concept of energy, by the use of 12 simulations developed with the educational software "Modellus". The concept of energy is a very abstract ... -
Does talking with a fellow passenger affect everybody the same? An impact assessment on driving performance and behavior
(2014)Driver distraction is indicated as one of the most significant causes of road accidents. In literature, among the internal factors causing distraction, the in-vehicle passenger or remote conversation, seems to affect ... -
Electron trap filling and emptying through simulations: Studying the shift of the maximum intensity position in Thermoluminescence and Linearly Modulated Optically Stimulated Luminescence curves
(2022)In the present work, the response of peak positions in Linearly Modulated Optically Stimulated Luminescence (LM-OSL) curves as a function of physical and technical parameters were investigated and compared theoretically; ... -
Extension and evaluation of a model for automatic drainage solution management in tomato crops grown in semi-closed hydroponic systems
(2015)In the present paper, a model previously developed to simulate the course of Na+ accumulation in closed hydroponic systems as a function of plant water consumption was further extended so as to be operative also in semi-closed ... -
A Game-Based Learning Approach in Digital Design Course to Enhance Students’ Competency
(2022)Digital Design is a laboratory course, and the educator must focus on the students’ need to know why they study the theory and mainly on the transition from knowledge-based learning to competency-based learning. This study ... -
Improved retrieval effectiveness by efficient combination of term proximity and zone scoring: A simulation-based evaluation
(2012)During the past few years, the commercial Web search engines have augmented their underlying index structures by significantly enriching the information which describes the appearance of a word within a document Dean (2009) ... -
INFRARED HEATING OF GREENHOUSES REVISITED: AN EXPERIMENTAL AND MODELING STUDY
(2009)The potential advantages of night-time heating of greenhouses by modern infrared (IR) radiative sources, instead of forced hot air, are examined experimentally and theoretically. Measurements of indoor and outdoor conditions ... -
Integrating logistics and transportation simulation tools for long-term planning
(2019)The complexity that underlies in transport systems and logistics necessitate the integration of different models that are capable of overcoming potential limitations when considering tools individually. This paper focuses ... -
Managing forest fires with i-protect fire simulation module
(2012)Emergency management is an essential capability in modern society. As disasters can happen at any time and can differ from each other considerably, it is necessary to develop a supple framework which can comply with each ... -
A mathematical model of HIV dynamics in the presence of a rescuing virus with replication deficiency
(2011)Recently, an enzyme (Cre recombinase) has been developed by directed evolution that successfully removes the HIV genome from the nuclear DNA of infected cells. To explore this idea further, we hypothesized that a replication ... -
Noninteracting control for helicopter in straight horizontal flight
(1998)Pitch angle and forward velocity are decoupled via a static state feedback law for the case of helicopter in straight horizontal flight. The set of stability derivatives for which decoupling is satisfied, is explicitly ... -
Numerical simulation of buried steel pipelines under strike-slip fault displacements
(2011)The paper examines the structural response of buried butt-welded steel pipelines, crossing active strike-slip tectonic faults, which are vertical and perpendicular to the pipeline axis. The interacting soil-pipeline system ... -
An Overview of Enabling Federated Learning over Wireless Networks
(2021)In this paper, we provide an overview of enabling federated learning (FL) techniques over wireless networks. More specifically, we present key techniques such as model compression, quantization and sparsification that ... -
Planning Computation Offloading on Shared Edge Infrastructure for Multiple Drones
(2022)Drones are used in a wide range of applications, which may involve computationally-demanding data processing tasks during the missions. While such heavy tasks can be offloaded to nearby edge-servers, this may not always ... -
Real-time production scheduling in a multi-grade PET resin plant under demand uncertainty
(2012)We deal with the real-time production scheduling of a continuous-process multi-grade PET resin plant. The process is surcharged by sequence-dependent changeovers, sequential processing with production and space capacity, ...
