On the Adoption of Circular Economy Concepts in the Manufacturing Sector
(2021-11)Industrialization has brought wealth, prosperity, and abundance to many nations. However, it has had many drawbacks on people’s health and the environment. Several paradigms have been proposed and implemented in an effort ... -
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 Dimensional Seismic Site Response Analysis of United Arab Emirates
(2021-08)Seismic design of structures located in seismically active areas, like UAE, is primarily based on Seismic Site Response Analysis (SRA) of that area. SRA is the process of estimating the response of soil layers under ... -
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 ... -
A one-dimensional flux-based thermography for thermal diffusivity estimation in metallic alloys
(2022-10)This work proposes a simple one-dimensional (1D) thermography technique to estimate a metallic alloy thermal diffusivity by employing a uniform flux-based heating source. A theoretical model is developed and validated to ... -
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. ... -
