Cargo Delivery Box System for modeling the Last mile of Business to Consumer Logistics
(2019-02)
The current business trends suggest that the e-commerce business in the UAE is increasing rapidly, which means that the supply chain facilities must be improved to sustain efficiency and profitability. The last mile is ...
Effect of Flexural CFRP Sheets and Plates on Shear Resistance of Reinforced Concrete Beams
(2014-05)
Ageing of reinforced concrete (RC) structures has captured the attention of a number of researchers to find different materials and techniques to strengthen and retrofit deteriorated structures. Carbon Fiber Reinforced ...
Additive Cyclic Codes Over Rings
(2015-02)
This Master's thesis introduces a reader with an average knowledge of mathematics to coding theory. A background in algebra is included with the required details needed in coding theory. The thesis guides the reader from ...
Critical resolved shear stress for slip and twin nucleation in single crystalline FeNiCoCrMn high entropy alloy
(Elsevier, 2017)
High entropy alloys is an emerging class of materials with superior mechanical properties down to cryogenic temperatures. At 77K, and unlike traditional metallic alloys, an increase in strength, strain hardening rate, and ...
Using Linear Regression and Back Propagation Neural Networks to Predict Performance of Soiled PV Modules
(Elsevier, 2019)
This paper presents a study on neural network-based modeling techniques and sensor data to estimate the power output of photovoltaic systems under soiling conditions. Predicting maximum power output under soiling conditions ...
The flexural behavior of bolting and bonding Aluminum Alloy plates to RC beams
(Elsevier, 2019)
The aim of this experimental investigation is to study the effect of using externally bonded and bolted Aluminum Alloy (AA) plates on the strength, stiffness, ductility and failure modes of Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams. ...
Formulation of heat conduction and thermal conductivity of metals
(De Gruyter, 2019)
The well-known low-pressure monatomic gas thermal conductivity expression is based on the Maxwell-Boltzmann velocity distribution and involves the mean particle velocity, the gas heat capacity at constant volume and the ...
What We Have Learned about Terrorism since 9/11
(American Economic Association, 2019)
This overview examines critically the post-9/11 empirical literature on terrorism. Major contributions by both economists and political scientists are included. We focus on five main themes: the changing nature of terrorism, ...
Ultrasonic Drug Delivery Using Micelles and Liposomes
(Springer, 2016)
The encapsulation of drugs in nanocarriers revolutionized research in drug delivery, especially in cancer chemotherapeutics. Several nanosystems have been developed including liposomes, polymeric micelles, dendrimers, solid ...
Kinetics of Ultrasonic Drug Delivery from Targeted Micelles
(American Scientific Publishers, 2015)
To minimize the adverse side effects of conventional chemotherapy, a targeted micellar drug carrier was investigated that retains hydrophobic drugs in its core and then releases the drug via ultrasonic activation. This ...
