In-Between Projection Interpolation in Cone-Beam CT Imaging using Convolutional Neural Networks
(Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE), 2022)Respiratory-Correlated cone beam computed tomography (4D-CBCT) is an emerging image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) technique that is used to account for the uncertainties caused by respiratory-induced motion in the ... -
In-Vehicle Performance Validation of the Semi-Active Hybrid Energy Storage System
(2015)A hybrid energy storage system (HESS) consisting of high-energy-density batteries and high-power-density Ultra-capacitors (UCs) can perform better than a battery alone powering an Electric Vehicle. Hybrid energy storage ... -
In-Vitro Degradation of Hollow Silica Reinforced Magnesium Syntactic Foams in Different Simulated Body Fluids for Biomedical Applications
(MDPI, 2020)This article reports the mechanical and biocorrosion behaviour of hollow silica nanosphere (SiO₂) reinforced (0.5–2 vol.%) magnesium (Mg) syntactic foams. Room temperature tensile properties’ characterization suggests that ... -
Incorporating Computer-Aided Software in the Undergraduate Chemical Engineering Core Courses
(Chemical Engineering Education, 2014)Introductions of computer-aided software and simulators are implemented during the sophomore-year of the chemical engineering (ChE) curriculum at the American University of Sharjah (AUS). Our faculty concurs that software ... -
Incorporating nanoparticles in 3D printed scaffolds for bone cancer therapy
(Elsevier, 2023)The low occurrence rate of bone cancer contributes to delayed diagnosis and treatment; in addition, the surgical resection of bone tumors can cause significant bone defects, further hindering the effective treatment of the ... -
Incremental and Heuristic Algorithms for Deriving Adaptive Distinguishing Test Cases for Nondeterministic Finite State Machines
(2017-09)Many methods are proposed for the construction of distinguishing test cases (DTCs) based on a specification given in the form of a Finite State Machine (FSM). In FSM-based testing, we have a black-box FSM Implementation ... -
Independent Sustainable City
(2015-02-01)Nowadays, cities are mostly relying on non-renewable sources of energy such as fossil fuels. The International Energy Agency estimates that in 2011, 81.2% of the world’s primary sources of energy came from fossil fuels. -

Indoor Localization Schemes for Mobile Robots
(2010-11)Mobile robots have taken a major role in indoor environments where they are used to accomplish high risk tasks instead of human beings, for example in war circumstances, dangerous chemical interactions, etc. Localization ... -
Indoor Positioning Techniques and Approaches for WI-FI Based Systems
(2015-06)The rapid expansion of smartphones' market coupled with the advances in mobile computing technology has opened up doors for new mobile services and applications. Quite a few of these services require the knowledge of the ... -
Inertial Navigation system of In-pipe Inspection Robot
(2016-05)The main goal of this study is to design and implement a robust inertial navigation system (INS) for in-pipe inspection robot. To achieve this goal, different mechanization approaches, that are derived in different frames ... -
Infixed -nn- in Northern Emirati Arabic
(Akaki Tserteli State University, 2020)An infixed -nn- between active participles having verbal force and their suffixed pronominal objects has been noted for the Arabic dialects of the southern Arabian Peninsula, including those of eastern Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, ... -
Inflation expectations and energy price forecasting
(2014-03)In this study, we ask whether US consumers' inflation expectations provide useful information for accurately predicting the direction of change in energy prices. As such, we set up a forecasting model to generate the one-, ... -
The Influence of Entrepreneurial Action on Strategic Alignment in New Ventures
(Elsevier, 2018-03)The alignment of IT strategy with business strategy has been among the top concerns of business leaders for several decades (Kappelman et al., 2014; Niederman et al., 1991). This interest from practitioners has stimulated ... -
Influence of Foundation Rigidity on the Structural Response of Mat Foundation
(Hindawi Limited, 2021)A mat is a type of shallow foundation that is appropriate for structures supported on soil having relatively low bearing capacity or excessive settlement. Structural analysis of a mat foundation can be accomplished by ... -
Influence of gas environment on the dynamics of wetting transition of laser-textured stainless steel meshes
(American Institute of Physics Inc., 2021)We analyze the role of surrounding gas and aging in ambient air in the wettability behavior of laser-processed stainless steel meshes. Laser texturing of meshes was carried out in the presence of different gases (N₂, O₂, ... -
The Influences on Female Participation and Progress in the Labor Force: Implications for Human Resource Management in the United Arab Emirates
