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 ... -
How to Avoid Structural, Corrosion, and Deterioration Disasters in Water Dams
(2014-01-19)Water dams are systems with large destructive forces that can lead to a substantial amount of destruction. The poster describes the situation of the problem. In addition, it summarizes the major problems that cause dam ... -
HRM Reform in the Public Sector: Is it Enough?
(Edward Elgar, 2009)Our objective here is to describe and discuss changes in HRM practice as they have emerged in public organizations undertaking new management reforms. In the first section, we present a conceptual framework that will allow ... -
Human and Robot Interaction in High Rise Construction
(2016-11)All accidents that happened during roof, ladder, and scaffolding works accounted for 55% of all the construction industry accidents. Human behavior is a contributing factor in approximately 80% of the accidents in construction ... -
Human Errors in Structural Design and Construction in the United Arab Emirates
(2012-06)The construction sector in the United Arab Emirates has witnessed an unparalleled growth in the past decade. In spite of recent challenges due to global recession, this sector remains strong in the Gulf region. Experience ... -
Human Resource Management in the United Arab Emirates
(Edward Elgar, 2016)This chapter reviews the current state of the research literature on HRM in the UAE, in part because more work has been published on "HRM in the UAE" than on any other country in the GCC country or even the Middle East ... -
Hybrid Car Efficiency Improvement
(2014-01-19)Our project is about increasing the efficiency of hybrid cars. Hybrid cars operate using two systems, the Internal Combustion System (ICS) and the Electric System (ES) and since they depend more on the ICS, more polluting ... -
Hybrid DCT/Pixel Domain Architecture for Heterogeneous Video Transcoding
(Elsevier, 2003)In this paper the pixel domain heterogeneous video transcoder proposed by the authors is implemented in the DCT domain. Consequently, the motion compensation and its inverse and the image down-sampling functions of the ... -
Hybrid Electric Vehicles
(2014-01-19)The problems related to the generation of electricity to fuel vehicles are three-fold. Firstly, conventional vehicles are major contributors to pollution due to the combustion of petroleum which is leading to the depletion ... -
Hybrid Energy Management System For Electric Vehicles
(2021-12)Boosting the performance of the energy storage system (ESS) of electric vehicles (EV) is of great significance to achieve their pervasion and encourage their mass adoption, which will, in turn, curtail the emission of ... -
Hybrid Liposome/Metal–Organic Framework as a Promising Dual-Responsive Nanocarriers for Anticancer Drug Delivery
(Elsevier, 2022)In this work, liposome-coated iron (III) benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate (Fe-BTC) metal–organic framework is examined as a promising pH/Ultrasound dual-responsive nanocarriers for doxorubicin (DOX) delivery. The successful ... -

Hybrid Look-Up-Tables Based Behavioral Model for Dynamic Nonlinear Power Amplifiers
(IEEE, 2020)A new look-up table based behavioral model for dynamic nonlinear power amplifiers is proposed. This model labelled as hybrid look-up tables model is based on the combination of a memoryless look-up table sub-model and a ... -
A hybrid model for the optimum integration of renewable technologies in power generation systems
(2011-02)The main purpose of this work is to assess the unavoidable increase in the cost of electricity of a generation system by the integration of the necessary renewable energy sources for power generation (RES-E) technologies ... -
Hybrid Power System Design for Autonomous Ground Robots
(2018-11)The interest in mobile robots has increased rapidly due to the complicated tasks a mobile robot can accomplish. An efficient robot power supply system can increase the robot range of travel. Different power management ... -
Hybrid Tractors
(2014-01-19)Our team performed an in depth research on this topic to identify the existing problems of the diesel fuel tractors. Manufacturing companies did not think of changing the conventional tractors as they have neglected the ... -
Hydrodynamic Modelling of Sharjah lagoons (UAE) under Climate Changes
(2022-04)Global warming has become a growing issue, especially because it is causing a rise in sea level which in turn has contributed to increased inundation areas and flooding risks. More specifically, the sea level in the Arabian ... -
Hydroelectric Dams
(2015-02-01)Energy consumption has increased exponentially since the advent of electricity. To satisfy consumer needs, there needs to come an increase in production of energy. Seeing as the earth is covered in approximately 70% water ... -
Hydrogen Fueled Home Generators
(2016-11)Burning fossil fuel, such as coal, oil and natural gases contribute to pollution and global warming due to the emission of carbon dioxide. 33% of green house emissions are due to electricity generation, which is the highest ...
