Video Transmission over LTE-Unlicensed
(2017-11)
The witnessed proliferation in the demand on wireless spectrum over the past years is anticipated to lead to a bandwidth scarcity problem. The situation is further aggravated by the combined increase in the demand on the ...
Durability of Mortar and Epoxy Bonded Galvanized Steel Mesh Sheets to Concrete Surfaces
(2019-04)
Over the last few decades, fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets and plates have been extensively used as external strengthening materials and proved to be quite effective in enhancing the flexure and shear strength of ...
An Intraoral Camera for Supporting Assistive Devices
(2018-12)
Thousands of patients around the globe are affected by paralysis which hinders the fulfilment of their basic needs such as mobility and speech. Several research topics have been dedicated to improve the livelihood of ...
CNN and HEVC Video Coding Features for Static Video Summarization
(IEEE, 2022)
This study proposes a novel solution for the detection of keyframes for static video summarization. We preprocessed the well-known video datasets by coding them using the HEVC video coding standard. During coding, 64 ...
Discrimination between genuine and acted expressions using EEG signals and machine learning

(2022-07)
Community development, which aims to increase the agency and solidarity of community members in order to improve the well-being of communities as a whole as a well as the individual members of those communities. Community ...
Applying Thematic Analysis to Psychological Cultural Research
(2022-07)
In this workshop, students will be asked to bring qualitative data that they have collected for one of their own research projects. We will read and discuss Braun and Clarke’s (2006) classic article, Using Thematic Analysis ...
Experimental and Numerical Study of RC Beams Strengthened in Flexure with Bolted/Bonded AA Plates
(2019-04)
Reinforced Concrete (RC) members are susceptible to deterioration due to many factors. Externally bonded reinforcement (EBR) such as fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP), had emerged as one of the proven techniques for flexural ...
Removal of Hexavalent Chromium from Wastewater using Modified Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes
(2018-12)
Recently, the interest and research on the removal of heavy metals from wastewater have dramatically increased due to the adverse effects they have on humans, flora and fauna. Chromium, which is a heavy metal, is the tenth ...
Tunable CPW Ring Resonator-Based Bandpass Filters Utilizing RF MEMS Varactors
(2017-01)
Radio Frequency (RF) Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) switches are mostly used in many applications such as: tunable filters, phase shifters and oscillators because they offer wide bandwidth, low insertion loss, ...
