Vigilance Assessment Using EEG and Eye Tracking Data Fusion
(2021-04)
Vigilance describes the ability to maintain alertness while performing a task for a prolonged time. Maintaining vigilance is one of the requirements in many workplaces, especially those that rely on monitoring, such as: ...
Modeling, design, and implementation of a bio-inspired propulsion mechanism for underwater vehicles
(2021-04)
Recent advances in bio-robotics research and smart materials have boosted the development of bio-inspired autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) to replace their conventional counterparts driven by rotary propellers. These ...
Modeling of Drug Release Kinetics from Stimuli- Responsive Micelles and Liposomes: A review
(IEEE, 2021)
Nanocarriers such as micelles and liposomes were developed to enhance the delivery of therapeutic drugs to tumors. Internal or external stimuli can be applied to achieve spatiotemporal controlled release from these carriers. ...
An Effective Anticancer Nano-approach for Melanoma and Breast Cancers Using Annona muricate Gold Nanoparticles
(Acta Scientific, 2021-09)
Chemotherapy is preferred for the treatment and management of cancer; however, its efficacy is hindered by the off-target side effects of the currently used synthetic drugs. Thus, anticancer drugs with higher safety and ...
Flexural Behavior of Concrete Beams Reinforced for Shear with Steel Welded Wire Fabric
(2021-07)
Past studies have shown that welded wire fabric (WWF) can be used as an effective alternative to stirrups in resisting shear in reinforced concrete (RC) beams. Such a form of reinforcement reduces the time required to ...
Design of a Power Amplification System for S-Band Satellite Applications
(2021-07)
The satellite industry is in more demand than ever for more efficient satellites as they are getting smaller, and with it, the on-board power resources are also getting more limited. The high-power amplification section ...
Finite Element Investigation of Pre-Damaged RC Columns Retrofitted with FRCM
(2021-06)
Reinforced concrete (RC) structures in the UAE and globally face adverse deterioration during their lifetime. A novel retrofitting system using poly-paraphenylene-benzobisoxazole (PBO) Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Matrix ...
Assessing the bond strength in thermoplastic fiber composite fabricated by an open mold process
(2021-07)
Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have become popular in marine, aerospace, and structural applications due to their high specific stiffness and strength as well as their ability to conform to complex shapes without ...
