Comparison of Energy Efficiency Strategies for Mosques in the United Arab Emirates
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)
As public buildings that are typically financed by charities, mosques are commonly designed, built, and operated using very limited resources. Hence, failure to design energy efficient mosques either affects occupants' ...
Dynamics of Chemotherapeutic Drug Release from Liposomes Using Low-Frequency Ultrasound
(2015-01)
This thesis focuses on the study of liposomes; nanoparticles that can act as anticancer drug carriers, in combination with ultrasound applied as a drug trigger, with the objective of reducing the side effects caused by ...
Hydrogen Supplement Co-combustion with Diesel in 2 Compression Ignition Engine
(Elsevier, 2015-10)
The present work investigates experimentally the behavior of compression ignition engine while boosting the combustion by enriching air-intake manifold with hydrogen supplement at the atmospheric condition. The study reports ...
From Russia with Love, Part 3
(National Association of Teachers of Singing, 2015)
Brain Source Localization in the Presence of Leadfield Perturbations
(2015-05)
Brain source localization enables us to localize different areas of the brain that are activated during any mental activity. This thesis makes use of Electroencephalography (EEG) recordings which is an important noninvasive ...
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 ...
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 ...
Microbial Desalination Cells Technology: A Review and a Case Study
(Elsevier, 2015-03)
The microbial desalination cell (MDC) is a newly-developed technology which integrates the microbial fuel cell (MFC) process and electrodialysis for wastewater treatment, water desalination and production of renewable ...
ESDD Prediction of Outdoor Polymer Insulators
(2015-06)
Reliable power transmission is a main factor in designing transmission and distribution lines. Contaminated environments significantly reduce the performance of outdoor insulators in which the accumulation of contamination ...
Chip Level Implementation of a Digital Radar System
(2015-05)
In this work, an S-Band radar system based on stretch processing technique is developed at chip level. The novelty in this work lies in providing an integrated, compact and miniaturized radar system chipset. The radar has ...
