A hybrid of firefly and biogeography-based optimization algorithms for optimal design of steel frames
(Arabian Journal for Science and Engineering, 2020)The principle purpose of the current study is to hybridize firefly algorithm (FA) as a nature-inspired meta-heuristic developed based on the flashing patterns and biogeography-based optimization (BBO) to present a qualified ... -
A hybrid support vector regression-firefly model for monthly rainfall forecasting
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2019)Long-term prediction of rainfalls is one of the most challenging tasks in stochastic hydrology owing to the highly random characteristics of rainfall events. In this paper, a novel approach is adopted to develop a hybrid ... -
Hydraulic and strength characteristics of pervious concrete containing a high volume of construction and demolition waste as aggregates
(Construction and Building Materials, 2020)Recently, construction and demolition waste generated in Malaysia has dramatically increased. For long-term sustainable development, demolition wastes can be recycled in concrete production. Recycled concrete aggregate ... -
Immigrant entrepreneurship: the case of Turkish entrepreneurs in the United States
(Journal of the Knowledge Economy, 2020)The ever-changing structural and relational facets of immigrant entrepreneurial activities have created missing dominos in the literature and policy development in the USA. This article explores entrepreneurial activities ... -
An improved gene expression programming model for streamflow forecasting in intermittent streams
(Elsevier, 2018)Skilful forecasting of monthly streamflow in intermittent rivers is a challenging task in stochastic hydrology. In this study, genetic algorithm (GA) was combined with gene expression programming (GEP) as a new hybrid model ... -
Improving weathering performance of wood by borates impregnation and liquid glass coating
(Drvna Industrija, 2020)Poor weathering performance of impregnated and coated wood products is an important issue that infl uences their appearance as well as their service life after outdoor or indoor exposure. A novel procedure to improve the ... -
In vivo evaluation of the toxic and genotoxic effects of exposure to cobalt nanoparticles using Drosophila melanogaster
(Environmental Science Nano, 2020)Nanomaterials in general and cobalt nanoparticles (CoNPs) in particular are of great interest not only because of their multiple applications and environmental impact, but also for their potential toxicity and safety issues. ... -
An in vivo study of nanorod, nanosphere, and nanowire forms of titanium dioxide using Drosophila melanogaster: toxicity, cellular uptake, oxidative stress, and DNA damage
(Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, Part A, 2020)The biological impact of nanomaterials (NMs) is determined by several factors such as size and shape, which need to be taken into consideration in any type of analysis. While investigators often prefer to conduct in vitro ... -
Independent effects on cellular and humoral immune responses underlie genotype-by- genotype interactions between Drosophila and parasitoids
(PLoS Pathogens, 2019)It is common to find abundant genetic variation in host resistance and parasite infectivity within populations, with the outcome of infection frequently depending on genotype-specific interactions. Underlying these effects ... -
Inferring RBP-mediated regulation in lung squamous cell carcinoma
(Plos One, 2016)RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) play key roles in post-transcriptional regulation of mRNAs. Dysregulations in RBP-mediated mechanisms have been found to be associated with many steps of cancer initiation and progression. Despite ... -
