Modeling, design, and implementation of a bio-inspired propulsion mechanism for underwater vehicles
(2021-04)
Recent advances in bio-robotics research and smart materials have boosted the development of bio-inspired autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) to replace their conventional counterparts driven by rotary propellers. These ...
Flexural Behavior of Concrete Beams Reinforced for Shear with Steel Welded Wire Fabric
(2021-07)
Past studies have shown that welded wire fabric (WWF) can be used as an effective alternative to stirrups in resisting shear in reinforced concrete (RC) beams. Such a form of reinforcement reduces the time required to ...
Design of a Power Amplification System for S-Band Satellite Applications
(2021-07)
The satellite industry is in more demand than ever for more efficient satellites as they are getting smaller, and with it, the on-board power resources are also getting more limited. The high-power amplification section ...
Finite Element Investigation of Pre-Damaged RC Columns Retrofitted with FRCM
(2021-06)
Reinforced concrete (RC) structures in the UAE and globally face adverse deterioration during their lifetime. A novel retrofitting system using poly-paraphenylene-benzobisoxazole (PBO) Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Matrix ...
Assessing the bond strength in thermoplastic fiber composite fabricated by an open mold process
(2021-07)
Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have become popular in marine, aerospace, and structural applications due to their high specific stiffness and strength as well as their ability to conform to complex shapes without ...
An Intelligent System Approach for RF Energy Harvesting
(2021-08)
RF energy harvesting has emerged as a viable energy source for low-powered devices in wireless sensor networks. It also acts as a replacement for conventional power sources such as batteries. RF energy harvest uses an ...
A Low Cost Process for Fabricating FDM Filaments Reinforced with Inorganic Fillers
(2021-07)
Low cost desktop-sized fused deposition modelling (FDM) printers have been widely embraced by small to large scale institutions as well as individuals. Their ease of use and low cost qualified them to become an important ...
