Maximum-Service Channel Assignment in Vehicular Radar-Communication
(IEEE Access, 2021)
Spectrum sharing between different technologies has become a necessity as the RF spectrum has become more congested than ever due to the increasing number of connected devices and applications all wishing to access the ...
A Holistic Intersection Rating System (HIRS)—A Novel Methodology to Measure the Holistic Operational Performance of Signalized Urban Intersections
(MDPI, 2021)
Signalized urban intersections are key components of urban transportation networks. They are traditionally viewed and designed as primarily motorized traffic facilities, and thus their physical and operational designs have ...
A review of post-consumption food waste management and its potentials for biofuel production
(Elsevier, 2021)
The global world production of food waste is expected to increase by 33% within the next decade. The current annual food waste stands at around 1.6 billion tonnes, which is worth around $ 1.2 trillion loss. Out of this, ...
Recent progress and challenges on adsorptive membranes for the removal of pollutants from wastewater. Part I: Fundamentals and classification of membranes
(Elsevier, 2021)
The development of novel wastewater reuse technologies appears to be a thriving area of research. Adsorptive membranes are considered among the promising technologies that exhibited efficiency and competence in water reuse. ...
Damage modeling of ballistic penetration and impact behavior of concrete panel under low and high velocities
(China Ordnance Society, 2021)
This work presents a numerical simulation of ballistic penetration and high velocity impact behavior of plain and reinforced concrete panels. This paper is divided into two parts. The first part consists of numerical ...
Polarimetric SAR Image Filtering by Infinite Number of Looks Prediction Technique
(IEEE, 2021)
Speckle filtering in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and polarimetric SAR (PolSAR) images is indispensable before the extraction of the useful information. The minimum mean square error estimate of the filtered pixels ...
Non-Destructive Water Leak Detection Using Multitemporal Infrared Thermography
(IEEE, 2021)
Waterleakage detection and localization in distribution networks pipelines is a challenge for utility companies. For this purpose, thermal Infrared Radiation (IR) techniques have been widely applied in the literature. ...
Lessons learned from the underrepresentation of women in STEM: AI-enabled solutions and more
(Elsevier, 2021)
The absence of women in STEM and energy sectors is driven by discrimination and socio-cultural factors. A greater number of women “leak out” from Energy and STEM fields than men. AI-enabled solutions offer analysis tools ...
Role of Active Morphing in the Aerodynamic Performance of Flapping Wings in Formation Flight
(MDPI, 2021)
Migratory birds have the ability to save energy during flight by arranging themselves in a V-formation. This arrangement enables an increase in the overall efficiency of the group because the wake vortices shed by each of ...
Development of a Flexible Framework Multi-Design Optimization Scheme for a Hand Launched Fuel Cell-Powered UAV
(MDPI, 2021)
This paper presents different methods for the design of a hand-launchable, fixed wing, fuel cell-powered unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to maximize flight endurance during steady level flight missions. The proposed design ...
