Real-Time Path-Planning using Depth/INS Sensor Fusion for Localization
(2019-12)
This thesis discusses a hardware implementation of a navigating robot that plans its path and localizes itself in indoor and outdoor environments. It aims to enhance the process of navigation by enhancing the localization ...
Solution of Fractional Differential Equations: Variational Iteration Approach
(2019-12)
This thesis discusses a newly introduced numerical scheme for fractional differential equations. The strategy is an extension of the Variational Iteration Method (VIM) and is suitable for boundary value problems (BVPs). ...
Evaluation of Microplastics in Beach Sediments along the Coast of Dubai, U.A.E
(2019-05)
The unprecedented increase in consumption in conjunction with poor management of plastic waste have resulted in global contamination of both terrestrial and marine environments. Plastic debris undergoes fragmentation, ...
The Use of Transferrin and Ultrasound in Cancer Treatment
(2019-05)
Site-specific drug delivery represents an attractive approach in cancer treatment to reduce the undesirable side-effects of anticancer therapeutics and increase the accumulation of drugs at tumor sites. Surface modification ...
Selective Removal of Dual Dyes from Aqueous Solutions Using Metal Organic Framework (MIL-53(Al))
(2019-11)
Organic dyes released from many industries such as textile, leather, and paper industries can be a threat to the environment and living creatures. Adsorption stands out as one of the favorite dye removal methods among the ...
Numerical Modeling of Sequential Segmentation for Enhancement of Mixing Inside Microchannels
(2019-12)
Microfluidics appeared recently as a new tool that facilitates many applications including chemical synthesis, electronics cooling and biological assays. However, flow on the microscale is characterized by laminar flow ...
Viscosity and Critical Properties of n-Decane, n-Pentadecane and n-Eicosane using Molecular Simulation
(2019-12)
Studies involving heavy hydrocarbons have been steadily increasing due to the increase in the extraction of shale or heavy oil of which heavy hydrocarbons are a major constituent. Experimental studies are difficult to ...
Proton-Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell Stack Model Parameters Estimation and Model Validation
(2019-04)
A proton-exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is a promising, clean, and efficient power device that converts the chemical energy stored in a fuel into electricity directly. Hydrogen is supplied from an external tank and ...
Behavior of FRP-RC Columns Using BFRP Ties under Concentric Loading
(2019-12)
Several studies have investigated the use of Fiber-Reinforced Polymers (FRP) rebars in reinforced concrete (RC) flexural members. However, not enough depth of understanding is currently available with regards to their use ...
