A Machine Learning Approach on Chest X-Rays for Pediatric Pneumonia Detection
(2022-06)
Pneumonia is a highly infectious respiratory disease that can be fatal if left untreated. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), pneumonia is the leading infectious cause of death in children younger than 5 years ...
Mathematical Modeling of COVID-19 Transmission and Vaccination: The Case of UAE
(2022-06)
Mathematical models are widely used in simulating infectious diseases. They are employed to investigate the disease transmission dynamics, forecast its spreading pattern, check the effectiveness of the interventions, or ...
Developing Heat Transfer for Laminar Flow of Power-law Fluids in the Entrance Region of a Pipe
(2022-06)
The objective of this thesis is to develop a model to solve the combined hydrodynamic-thermal entrance region problem for laminar flow of power-law fluids in a circular pipe under uniform wall heat flux condition. The model ...
Effect of Frequency on The Dynamic Properties in Resonant Column Testing
(2022-08)
Dynamic properties of soils are needed to conduct seismic analysis according to building code of UAE. Research on the effect of loading frequency on dynamic properties such as shear wave velocity of geomaterials remains ...
Exploring Semi-Supervised Learning Algorithms for Camera Trap Images
(2022-08)
Animal Extinction and biodiversity loss is a major challenge faced by ecologists in today’s world due to increasing populations and industrialization. In their fight to protect endangered species, ecologists use remote ...
Predicting COVID-19 in the UAE Using Machine Learning
(2022-08)
As of 17th August 2022, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have recorded over 1 million Covid-19 cases since the start of the pandemic with over 2000 deaths and the numbers are still increasing. To combat Covid-19, UAE has ...
Laplace Adomian Solutions to Fractional Differential Equations that Arise in Natural Science and Engineering Applications
(2022-06)
In this thesis, we investigate the numerical solution of fractional differential equations subject to initial and boundary conditions. For the solution of such equations, we use two iterative approaches. First, we apply ...
