Oil Removal From Produced Water Using Natural Materials
(2014-06)The oil and gas industry has had to deal with a massive amount of waste water as a bi-product of the exploration of oil and gas. This waste water referred to as produced water (PW) and the amount of PW increases with the ... -
Omani Teachers' Attitude Toward Classroom Research
(2006-06)Although there has been a lot of research done to investigate teachers' attitudes toward classroom research, there has been little research, if any, in the Gulf area, and especially in Oman. In fact, classroom research is ... -
On Some Applications of the Maximum Principles to a Variety of Elliptic and Parabolic Problems
(2019-07)One of the most important and useful tools used in the study of partial differential equations is the maximum principle. This principle is a natural extension to higher dimensions of an elementary fact of calculus: any ... -
On some bounds for frequencies of membranes and plates.
(2020-05)The problem of optimizing a domain dependent functional, while keeping a domain’s measure (its volume, perimeter, etc.) fixed, is called an isoperimetric problem. The isoperimetric inequalities have a long history in ... -
On Studying the Effectiveness of Extended Finite State Machine Based Test Selection Criteria
(2015-07)Automatic test derivation from formal specifications offers a rigorous discipline to functional conformance testing. In various application domains, such as communication protocols and other reactive systems, the specification ... -
On The Unit Dot Product Graph Of A Commutative Ring.
(2016-01)In 2015, Ayman Badawi (Badawi, 2015) introduced the dot product graph associated to a commutative ring A. Let A be a commutative ring with nonzero identity, 1 n < 1 be an integer, and R =A x A x ... x A (n times). We ... -
One Text, Two Receptions: Mahfouz's Children of the Alley
(2013-12)Received wisdom in translation studies tells us that both source and target texts should enjoy the same reception by the source and target cultures. However, Mahfouz's Children of the Alley has been negatively received in ... -
Online Monitoring of Outdoor Non-Ceramic Insulators
(2011-06)Transmitting power using overhead lines is heavily used by power utilities due to their lower cost compared with underground cables. However, overhead lines have shown great influence on power system due to frequent power ... -
Online Video-Based Handwriting Recognition System
(2007-06)In the recent years, handwriting recognition systems started to have a major role in the new technology such as computers, mobile phones and hand-held devices to enhance the interaction between humans and these systems. ... -
Operation of Battery Exchange Stations for Electric Vehicles
(2019-05)Due to environmental and energy security concerns, low emission vehicles present a vital necessity for clean transportation. In particular, Electric Vehicles (EV) are the most promising solution due to the fact that the ... -
Optimal Allocation of Distributed Generation in Distribution Systems
(2019-07)The integration of distributed generation (DG) to the power grid has increased in recent years due to their techno-economic benefits for utilities and consumers. The downside of these DG units is that they introduce several ... -
