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 ... -
Mathematical modeling of microbubble cavitation at 70 kHz and the importance of the subharmonic in drug delivery from micelles
(Elsevier, 2013)In order to gain insight into the experimental observation of ultrasound-induced release of drugs from micelles, we modeled the dynamic oscillations of a 10-μm-diameter bubble insonated at 70 kHz. The Parlitz modification ... -
Matrix Encoding for Data Hiding Using Multilayer Video Coding and Transcoding Solutions
(Elsevier, 2012)This paper proposes a multitier data hiding solution in MPEG video using matrix encoding. In the first tier of the proposed solution, raw video is encoded into two layers using multilayer Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) encoding. ... -
A Maturity Model for a Sustainable Construction Industry
(2014-01)Although the construction industry has provided societies with facilities and infrastructure projects that meet their needs and fulfill their requirements, created up to 7% of the world's job opportunities, accounted for ... -
Maximum principles and overdetermined problems for Hessian equations
(ISTE Group, 2021)In this article we investigate some Hessian type equations. Our main aim is to derive new maximum principles for some suitable P-functions, in the sense of L.E. Payne, that is for some appropriate functional combinations ... -
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 ... -
Mazari UAV Adaptive Autopilot System Design and Implementation
(2013-06)Autonomous unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) research started at AUS in 2005. Linear and nonlinear aircraft models and system identification of the aircraft system were developed to design flight control laws. Proportional-i ... -
The Meaning of Huda in the Qur'an with Reference to Three English Translations
(2010-07)Translation of the Holy Qur'an has been a difficult topic for discussion and research by translators and research specialists because of its sacred status. The wording of the Qur'an is so precise that no word is out of ... -
The Meaning of Nazala in the Holy Qur'an
(2015-05)Translating the Qur'an has always been a difficult task which stems from the holy status of the Book as well as the unique use of Arabic language in it. Being a deliberate text, every word in the Qur'an serves a specific ... -
A Measure of Capacity Contribution of Static Mono-Si Photovoltaic Systems
(2013-05)Photovoltaic (PV) systems generate electricity in the daytime when system demand is generally moderate to high. For Mediterranean countries, there is also seasonal coincidence of high system demand and high PV load factors. ... -
Measurement of Vigilance Using EEG Source Localization
(2017-11)Vigilance, or sustained attention, is crucial for jobs where attentiveness for prolonged times is required. These jobs include air traffic control, luggage inspection, and surveillance jobs. Vigilance decrement can cause ... -
Measuring the Acoustic Release of a Chemotherapeutic Agent from Folate-Targeted Polymeric Micelles
(American Scientific Publishers, 2018)In this paper, we compare the use of Bayesian filters for the estimation of release and reencapsulation rates of a chemotherapeutic agent (namely Doxorubicin) from nanocarriers in an acoustically activated drug release ... -
Mechanical and phytochemical protection mechanisms of Calligonum comosum in arid deserts
(Public Library of Science, 2018)Unlike animals, plants are sessile organisms, lacking circulating antibodies and specialized immune cells and are exposed to various harsh environmental conditions that make them at risk of being attacked by different ... -
Mechanical Behavior of Friction Stir Extruded Tubes
(2020-12)Friction Stir Back Extrusion (FSBE) is a new grade of severe plastic deformation processes capable of producing metallic tubular geometries that exhibit ultrafine grain structure and superior mechanical properties. FSBE ... -
Mechanical perturbation control of cardiac alternans
(American Physical Society, 2018)Cardiac alternans is a disturbance in heart rhythm that is linked to the onset of lethal cardiac arrhythmias. Mechanical perturbation control has been recently used to suppress alternans in cardiac tissue of relevant size. ... -
Mechanical Properties of Strengthening 5083-H111 Aluminum Alloy Plates at Elevated Temperatures
(MDPI, 2021)The use of aluminum alloys for external strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams has been capturing research interest. Exposure to harsh environmental conditions can severely impact the strengthening efficiency. ... -
