Melting performance of a composite bio-based phase change material: An experimental evaluation of copper foam pore size
(Elsevier, 2022)
This paper presents an experimental study on the thermal performance of a composite heat sink consisting of a bio-based phase change material and copper foam. The experiments are carried out at three different heat loads ...
Design and Comparison Analysis of Various Flow Configurations in Bipolar Plates via Numerical Simulation
(Canadian Center of Science and Education, 2021)
Bipolar plates play a major role in the overall performance of fuel cells, hence their proper design and optimization are essential. In this regard, pressure drop across bipolar plates has a major impact on the efficiency. ...
Optimization of a Confined Jet Geometry to Improve Film Cooling Performance Using Response Surface Methodology (RSM)
(MDPI, 2020)
This study investigates the interrelated parameters affecting heat transfer from a hot gas flowing on a flat plate while cool air is injected adjacent to the flat plate. The cool air forms an air blanket that shield the ...
Evaluating velocity and temperature fields for Ranque Hilsch vortex tube using numerical simulation
(Elsevier, 2021)
In this study, a three-dimensional numerical investigation is carried out to study the flow field inside a Ranque-Hilsch vortex tube (RHVT) model. Flow parameters such as velocity, temperature, and pressure are plotted at ...

(Elsevier, 2021)
Adsorptive membranes have attracted attention recently and have been employed to remove variety of pollutants from wastewater. Part I of this work was devoted to provide an overview on the latest progress in their fabrication ...
Modeling of Anti-cancer Drug Release Kinetics from Liposomes and Micelles: A review
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2021)
Nanocarriers, such as liposomes and micelles, were developed to enhance the delivery of therapeutic drugs to malignant tissues. Internal or external stimuli can be applied to achieve spatiotemporal controlled release from ...
EEG-Based Semantic Vigilance Level Classification Using Directed Connectivity Patterns and Graph Theory Analysis
(IEEE, 2020)
This paper proposes two novel methods to classify semantic vigilance levels by utilizing EEG directed connectivity patterns with their corresponding graphical network measures. We estimate the directed connectivity using ...
Ultrasound-Mediated Cancer Therapeutics Delivery using Micelles and Liposomes: A Review
(Bentham Science Publisher, 2021)
Nanoparticles have proven promising as cancer theranostic tools. Nanoparticles are selective in nature, have reduced toxicity, and controllable drug release patterns making them ideal carriers for anticancer drugs. Numerous ...
Spatiotemporal Mapping and Monitoring of Mangrove Forests Changes From 1990 to 2019 in the Northern Emirates, UAE Using Random Forest, Kernel Logistic Regression and Naive Bayes Tree Models
(Frontiers, 2020)
Mangrove forests are acting as a green lung for the coastal cities of the United Arab Emirates, providing a habitat for wildlife, storing blue carbon in sediment and protecting shoreline. Thus, the first step toward ...
Fog Computing Approach for Shared Mobility in Smart Cities
(MDPI, 2021)
Smart transportation a smart city application where traditional individual models are transforming to shared and distributed ownership. These models are used to serve commuters for inter- and intra-city travel. However, ...
