Faculty use of the course management system (CMS) iLearn at the American University of Sharjah
(Zayed University Press, 2013)That course management systems (CMS) are relevant to higher education is beyond question. Tertiary institutions invest significant resources in developing CMS and promoting their use by faculty members. Considerable research ... -
Fault Coverage and Diagnosis of Protocols and Systems Modeled As Extended Finite State Machines
(2015-01)Automatic test derivation from formal specifications offers a rigorous discipline to functional conformance testing. In various application domains, such as communication protocols and other reactive systems, the specification ... -
Fault Detection of Fuel Systems Using Polynomial Regression Profile Monitoring
(Wiley Online Library, 2016-08-09)Anomaly detection is the characterization of a normal behavior of a system or process and identification of any deviation from such normal behavior. Anomaly detection of critical systems provides an important financial and ... -
Fault-Tolerant Network Topologies for Datacenters
(2017-05)Data centers are an integral part of cloud computing infrastructure to support various cloud-based services such as web search, email, social networking, distributed file systems and scientific computing. Data centers ... -
FE modeling of concrete beams and columns reinforced with FRP composites
(Elsevier, 2021)Compression and flexure members such as columns and beams are critical in a structure as its failure could lead to the collapse of the structure. In the present work, numerical analysis of square and circle short columns, ... -
Feasibility of 3D Depth Camera in the Civil Engineering Field
(2016-11)In the civil engineering field, land surveying is the foundation of any construction process and has always been the method of choice for topographic mapping analysis. One of the latest technologies of 3D Depth Camera is ... -
Feasibility of Condensate Recovery in Humid Climates
(2013)This study investigates the practicality of using the air-conditioning condensate as an additional source of water. The scarcities of natural water resources, especially in arid regions, represent a major obstacle restraining ... -
A Feasibility Study for Solar Energy Generation Policy Mechanisms in The UAE
(2021-11)In a modern world, life would not be possible without energy, as energy plays a significant role in the development of nations. The rapid economic growth combined with the increasing energy demand is a continuous driving ... -
Feature modeling using polynomial classifiers and stepwise regression
(Elsevier, 2010)In polynomial networks, feature vectors are mapped to a higher dimensional space through a polynomial function. The expanded vectors are then passed to a single layer network to compute the model parameters. However, as ... -
Ferromagnetic Fe-Cu Coating for Ferrous Contaminants Sensing in Aqueous Media
(2020-11)This work investigates the development and analysis of a novel resonant sensor for ferrous contaminations in aqueous media. Resonant sensor is a class of sensors that employ a structure vibrating at resonance. Hence, the ... -
Fetal ECG Signal Enhancement
(2008-06)Fetal heart monitoring yields vital information about the fetus health and can support medical decision making in critical situations. A compound signal is obtained non-invasively by placing electrodes on the abdomen area ... -
Few-cycle laser driven reaction nanoscopy on aerosolized silica nanoparticles
(Springer Nature, 2019)Nanoparticles offer unique properties as photocatalysts with large surface areas. Under irradiation with light, the associated near-fields can induce, enhance, and control molecular adsorbate reactions on the nanoscale. ... -
Finding a Solution For Recycling Wastes
(2014-07-22)Over the past few years, there has been a remarkable growth in trash disposal all over the UAE, especially in Dubai, due to its huge demographic growth. Most of this trash is being disposed in large landfills in huge ... -
