Soil remediation from waste lubricating oil
(Elsevier, 2018-02)
Soil remediation was investigated from waste oil contamination. Contamination of different soil particle diameters was prepared with different dosage of waste oil contamination. Solvent extraction technique was employed ...
Kinetic and thermodynamic study of phosphate removal from water by adsorption onto (Arundo donax) reeds
(SAGE Publications, 2018-02-01)
The adsorption of phosphate ion onto natural reed (Arundo donax) was studied in this work. The effect of phosphate initial concentration, adsorbent dose, pH, temperature, and salt addition on adsorption uptake was investigated. ...
Non-Linear Profile Monitoring Using Artificial Neural Network Fault Detection
(2018-04)
In today’s world, the development of technology and industrial systems is becoming much more complex with the ever-demanding need for higher quality. Anomaly detection is the characterization of a normal behavior of a ...
Effects of Operating Conditions on Water Absorption Capacity of Superabsorbent Hydrogels
(2018-04)
Superabsorbent hydrogels are three-dimensional networks of hydrophilic polymers that have an extraordinary ability to absorb and retain water. Therefore, they have been utilized in many applications such as disposal diapers, ...
Nonlinear FEA of Soil-Structure-Interaction Effects on RC Shear-Wall Structures
(2018-05)
Considering Soil-Structure-Interaction (SSI) is essential when evaluating the structural system’s response as it can unveil behaviors that are otherwise not accounted for in fixed-base (FB) systems. Nonlinear Finite Element ...
Energy Management of a Multi-Source Power System
(2018-05)
Many industries are heavily dependent on fossil fuels to carry out their daily operations. The transportation industry alone is responsible for consuming two thirds of the oil used around the world. As fossil fuel deposits ...
The Use of Lime to Stabilize Clay Soil against Internal Erosion
(2018-12)
Internal erosion failure of soils in hydraulic structures is one of the most catastrophic failures in civil engineering projects. Therefore, it is vital to stabilize the soil against this phenomenon. Different materials ...
Development of an Optimization Scheme for A Fixed-Wing UAV Long Endurance with PEMFC and Battery
(2018-05)
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and fuel cell industries are seeking to enhance the capability and performance of UAVs powered by fuel cells as propulsion systems. Tasks such as surveillance and land surveying increased ...
Development of Evaluation Model for Government Services Performance Using Analytic Hierarchy Process
(2018-04)
Performance Management is one of the main concerns for many organizations in the public and the private sectors. Although the definition of performance could be complicated when it comes to the public sector, different ...
