Heat rate curve approximation for power plants without data measuring devices
(2012)In this work, a numerical method, based on the one-dimensional finite difference technique, is proposed for the approximation of the heat rate curve, which can be applied for power plants in which no data acquisition is ... -
Heavy Metal Removal from Wastewater using Novel Adsorbent
(2012-01)Heavy metals, when in abundance, can be very toxic to the medium in which it is dissolved. Adsorption has been used as a suitable water treatment process to remove heavy metals. Many studies have been conducted to remove ... -

Hedonic valuation of land protection methods: implications for cluster development.
(2014-05)This study estimates a generalized spatial hedonic pricing model to assess how residential property values are impacted by inclusion within cluster developments and by proximity to various types of protected land. The ... -
Helping students take control of their learning through the use of focused weekly review sheets
(TESOLANZ, 2001)This paper reports on work done with students enrolled in a Level 4 Certificate of Attainment in English (CAEL) class at the University of Waikato Language Institute in Auckland. The original purpose was to help raise the ... -
Heterometrus spinifer: An Untapped Source of Anti-Tumor Molecules
(MDPI, 2020)Despite intensive research, cancer incidence and mortality continue to rise. Consequently, the necessity to develop effective anti-cancer therapy is apparent. We have recently shown that the gut bacteria of animals living ... -
HEVC Video Encryption with High Capacity Message Embedding by Altering Picture Reference Indices and Motion Vectors
(IEEE, 2022)A high capacity message embedding in encrypted HEVC video is proposed in this paper. The challenges addressed in this paper include keeping the encrypted video compliant with standardized decoders, correctly decrypting the ... -
High Order Methods for Solving Cardiac Models
(2020-05)Modeling of the heart became of great interest for both mathematicians and bioengineers over the past 25 years for the increasing impact of cardiovascular system problems in our every day lives. The bidomain model and its ... -
Highly variable upper and abyssal overturning cells in the South Atlantic
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2020-08-05)The Meridional Overturning Circulation (MOC) is a primary mechanism driving oceanic heat redistribution on Earth, thereby affecting Earth's climate and weather. However, the full-depth structure and variability of the MOC ... -

Holistic Design: Optimizing Mechatronic Systems Using Multi Objective Optimization
(2015-05)This thesis aims to present an integrated approach to mechatronic systems design using heuristic optimization techniques. This integrated approach will consider the kinematics of the system, the dynamics, and the control ... -
A Holistic Intersection Rating System (HIRS)
(2018-11)Signalized urban intersections are key components of urban transportation networks. They are traditionally viewed and designed as primarily motorized traffic facilities thus their physical and operational designs are aimed ... -
A Holistic Intersection Rating System (HIRS)—A Novel Methodology to Measure the Holistic Operational Performance of Signalized Urban Intersections
(MDPI, 2021)Signalized urban intersections are key components of urban transportation networks. They are traditionally viewed and designed as primarily motorized traffic facilities, and thus their physical and operational designs have ... -
Honesty, ability, norm, and socioeconomic status: experimental evidence from Bangladesh
(American University of Sharjah, 2019)In a real effort task experiment, we study the (dis)honesty of undergraduate students in Bangladesh. Consistent with earlier studies, when they self-report their performance, a significant fraction of students cheats to ... -
How price inelastic is demand for gasoline in fuel-subsidizing economies?
(2015-07)In recent years, governments that have historically subsidized domestic fuel consumption face an ever-growing challenge in maintaining fuel subsidies and have embarked on subsidy reform. This paper estimates the price and ... -
