• Electrochemical readout of molecularly imprinted polymers: potentials and challenges 

  Yarman, Aysu; Özçelikay, Göksu; Kurbanoğlu, Sevinç; Peng, Lei; Koşak Söz, Çağla; Özkan, Sibel Ayşıl; Wollenberger, Ulla; Scheller, Frieder W. (2020)

  Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are one of the most frequently studied alternative recognition elements in chromatography and sensorics. They are prepared by polymerizing the target analyte (socalled template) and ...

• Life satisfaction, pro-activity and employment 

  Akay, Alpaslan; Karabulut, Gökhan; Yılmaz, Levent (World Scientific Publishing, 2021)

  Using longitudinal data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (GSOEP), this paper investigates how pro-active time-use (e.g., in sports/arts/socializing) relates to subjective well-being of the unemployed and their probability ...

• Efficiency of deep neural networks for joint angle modeling in digital gait assessment 

  Alcaraz, Javier Conte; Moghaddamnia, Sanam; Peissig, Jürgen (Springer Open, 2021)

  Reliability and user compliance of the applied sensor system are two key issues of digital healthcare and biomedical informatics. For gait assessment applications, accurate joint angle measurements are important. Inertial ...

• A new approach to the analysis of water treeing using feature extraction of vented type water tree images 

  Karhan, Mustafa; Çakır, Musa Faruk; Uğur, Mukden (Springer, 2021)

  In this study, vented type water trees were initiated and grown in laboratory environment. A smart test platform was used to accelerate the initiation and growth of vented type water trees. 6 kV/4 kHz voltage was applied ...

• Evaluation of various design concepts in passive ankle-foot orthoses using finite element analysis 

  Sürmen, Hasan Kemal; Arslan, Yunus Ziya (Elsevier, 2021)

  Ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs) are typically prescribed to improve the gait function of ambulatory children with neurological conditions such as cerebral palsy or spina bifida. Due to the excessive and repetitive loading ...
