Jerry Seinfeld: I'm Telling You For The Last Time, Translation and Commentary
(2015-01)Translation of humor is a field that may not have a fair share of research, especially in the English to Arabic field where the cultural aspect may differ more vividly compared to translating into other languages. This ... -
Joint Adaptive Modulation and Channel Coding for Wireless Multimedia Communications
(2011-06)Wireless communication has witnessed a signi cant growth due to recent ad- vances in technology. As a result, there has been a strong demand for various multi- media services and applications over wireless channels. ... -
Joint Planning of Smart EV Charging Stations and DGs in Eco-Friendly Remote Hybrid Microgrids
(IEEE, 2019)This paper proposes an efficient planning algorithm for allocating smart electric vehicle (EV) charging stations in remote communities. The planning problem jointly allocates and sizes a set of distributed generators (DGs) ... -
Joint Transmitter / Receiver Optimization for Cognitive Radio Applications
(2012-05)The increasing demand for high data rate services is a primary motivation for the development of next generation mobile radio networks. As such, efficient utilization of the available radio spectrum is an important objective ... -
Joshi’s Split Tree for Option Pricing
(MDPI, 2020)In a thorough study of binomial trees, Joshi introduced the split tree as a two-phase binomial tree designed to minimize oscillations, and demonstrated empirically its outstanding performance when applied to pricing American ... -

Kinetic and thermodynamic study of phosphate removal from water by adsorption onto (Arundo donax) reeds
(SAGE Publications, 2018-02-01)The adsorption of phosphate ion onto natural reed (Arundo donax) was studied in this work. The effect of phosphate initial concentration, adsorbent dose, pH, temperature, and salt addition on adsorption uptake was investigated. ... -
Kinetics and Modeling of H2S Removal in a Novel Biofilter
(2011-04)Biofiltration has become a widely accepted technology for the removal of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) which is one of the major odor causing gases present in the air streams of municipal wastewater treatment facilities. In ... -
Kinetics and thermodynamics of acoustic release of doxorubicin from non-stabilized polymeric micelles
(Elsevier, 2010)This paper studies the thermodynamic characteristics of ultrasound-activated release of Doxorubicin (Dox) from micelles. The release and re-encapsulation of Dox into Pluronic® P105 micelles was measured by recording the ... -
Kinetics of acoustic release of doxorubicin from stabilized and unstabilized micelles and the effect of temperature
(Elsevier, 2011)Ultrasound is being investigated as a trigger mechanism to deliver high concentrations of chemotherapy drugs to cancerous tissues using polymeric micelles. In this paper, we examined the kinetics of acoustic release of ... -
The Kinetics of Calcein Release from Mixed Targeted Liposomes Using Ultrasound
(American Scientific Publishers, 2022)Site-specific delivery of chemotherapeutics using actively targeted-stimuli-responsive liposomes is a promising approach to enhance the therapeutic efficiency of anti-cancer drugs while reducing the associated undesirable ... -
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 ... -
Kinetics of ultrasonic release of doxorubicin from pluronic P105 micelles
(Elsevier, 2001)The aim of this research was to measure and model the kinetics of acoustic release and subsequent re-encapsulation of Doxorubicin (DOX) from Pluronic P105 micelles. A fluorescence detection ultrasound exposure chamber was ... -
