Fog Computing Approach for Shared Mobility in Smart Cities
(MDPI, 2021)
Smart transportation a smart city application where traditional individual models are transforming to shared and distributed ownership. These models are used to serve commuters for inter- and intra-city travel. However, ...
Simultaneous Adsorption and Reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) in Aqueous Solution Using Nitrogen-Rich Aminal Linked Porous Organic Polymers
(MDPI, 2021)
Two novel nitrogen-rich aminal linked porous organic polymers, NRAPOP-O and NRAPOP-S, have been prepared using a single step-one pot Schiff-base condensation reaction of 9,10-bis-(4,6-diamino-S-triazin-2-yl)benzene and ...
Investigating Tensile Behavior of Sustainable Basalt–Carbon, Basalt–Steel, and Basalt–Steel-Wire Hybrid Composite Bars
(MDPI, 2021)
One of the main disadvantages of steel bars is rebar corrosion, especially when they are exposed to aggressive environmental conditions such as marine environments. One of the suggested ways to solve this problem is to use ...
Physicochemical Characterization and Seasonal Variations of PM10 Aerosols in a Harsh Environment
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2021)
We have conducted a comprehensive sampling campaign of PM₁₀ pollutants at a site next to a major highway, using standard protocols. Particulate matter (PM) total mass, elemental and chemical/mineral compositions of the ...
Design and Performance Analysis of Misalignment Tolerant Charging Coils for Wireless Electric Vehicle Charging Systems
(MDPI, 2021)
n order to design a high efficiency Wireless Electric Vehicle Charging (WEVC) system, the design of the different system components needs to be optimized, particularly the design of a high-coupling, misalignment-tolerant ...
Stress Management Using Physiological Signals and Audio Stimulation
(2021-11)
Stress has a significant role in the development of a wide variety of mental, psychological, emotional, behavioral, and physical illnesses. Additionally, there is substantial evidence in the literature that stress impairs ...
Finite Element Analysis of Machining Lightweight Syntactic Foams
(2021-04)
Aluminium alloys reinforced with hollow alumina microsphere syntactic foams possess superior physical and mechanical properties such as improved stiffness, peak compressive strength and total specific energy absorption. ...
Flexural Behavior of Concrete Beams Reinforced with FRP Bars Under Long Exposure to UAE Environment
(2021-03)
Due to the large research pool of Fiber-reinforced Polymers (FRP) reinforcements, their utilization as main reinforcement in concrete structures has gained the trust of the engineering community. In fact, design codes such ...
World Literature in the World? Kahf ’s The Girl in the Tangerine Scarf and the Transnational Reading Public
(BRILL, 2021)
Criticized for being too Euro- and Americentric, world literature scholarship tends to center on the American implications of this shortcoming, with little discussion of world literature beyond these centers. This paper ...
Rethinking the Bottom Bun: Assessing Topic Closers
(2021-05)
This study focusses on the learnability of a model for topic closers. Topic closers are the various approaches through which a paragraph can be ended. The model comprises a total of 10 topic closers, each of which is termed ...
