Anticipated Discrimination, Choices, and Performance: Experimental evidence
(American University of Sharjah, 2018)
This paper studies experimentally anticipated discrimination across gender, hiring patterns, and performance in tasks with different stereotypes in a labor-market setting. Participants are assigned to a seven-people group ...
Performance of BFRP RC beams using high strength concrete
(Elsevier, 2021)
This research investigates the flexural behavior and serviceability performance of basalt fiber-reinforced polymer (BFRP) reinforced concrete (RC) beams cast with normal- and high-strength concretes (NSC and HSC). Carbon ...
Reliability Centered Maintenance Actions Prioritization Using Fuzzy Inference Systems
(Emeraldinsight, 2016)
Reliability centered maintenance (RCM) is a systematic maintenance philosophy/approach used to analyze system's performance in terms of the impact of a potential failure and select the most efficient maintenance tasks along ...
A Unified Approach for Probability of Detection Evaluation over Generalised Fading Channels
(Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2016)
In this paper, we revisit energy detection-based spectrum sensing cognitive radio systems operating over generalised fading channels. In particular, we derive closed-form exact expressions as well as lowand high-signal-to-noise ...
Use of Aluminum Alloy Plates as Externally Bonded Shear Reinforcement for R/C Beams
(Elsevier, 2019)
Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRP) and steel had proven to be very effective as externally bonded shear strengthening materials However, they both have their shortcomings. Recently developed high strength Aluminum Alloy (AA) ...
Corrosion Inhibition of Mild Steel using Fig Leaves Extract in Hydrochloric Acid Solution
(ResearchGate, 2011)
The inhibition effect of Fig leaves extract on corrosion of mild steel in 2M acid solution was investigated using traditional weight loss measurements and various electrochemical techniques. Corrosion inhibition efficiency ...
Microbial Desalination Cell (MDC) in the Presence of Activated Carbon
(American Scientific Publishers, 2014-10)
This report studies the performance of a Microbial Desalination Cell (MDC) in the presence ofactivated carbon in both the cathode and anode chambers. The large surface area of the activatedcarbon provides surface for ...
Alkyl Monolayers on Silica Surfaces Prepared from Neat, Heated ClSi(CH₃)₂(CH₂)₁₇CH₃ Analyzed by XPS
(American Vacuum Society, 2002)
Silane monolayers on silica, prepared from mono-, di- and trichlorosilanes, are widely used in industry for surface functionalization and modification. However, unlike di- and trichlorosilanes, monochlorosilanes are ...
Seismic risk quantification and GIS-based seismic risk maps for Dubai-UAE_Dataset
(Elsevier, 2021)
The data provided in this article quantifies the potential seismic losses in multi-story buildings located in Dubai, UAE. Besides, it developed GIS-based seismic risk maps, which form essential inputs towards the seismic ...
Capacity of Fox's H-function Fading Channel with Adaptive Transmission
(Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2016)
Novel closed-form exact expressions for the capacity of the recently-introduced Fox's H-function fading channel are derived. The expressions are obtained assuming different types of adaptive transmission strategies, namely, ...
