It uses a quantitative methodology, which considers the e-government transformation success as the dependent variable and the eighteen success factors as the independent variables in a relational model. Apart from the similar s...
Microfluidic Reconfigurable Nested Split Ring-Regular Ring Transmitarray Unit Cell
Erdil, Emre; Topalli, Kagan; Esmaeilzad, Nasim Seyedpour; Zorlu, Ozge; Külah, Haluk; Aydın Çivi, Hatice Özlem (2014-08-23)
A reconfigurable, circularly polarized transmitarray unit cell consisting of double layer nested split ring-regular ring formed as microfluidic channels inside Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is designed and fabricated. The operation of the unit cell is based on the element rotation method. The liquid metal is injected into the channels and it forms the conductive part in the structures whereas the split region in the outer ring is air. The movement of the liquid metal together with the split around the outer r...
