Communication-Based Adaptive Overcurrent Protection for Distribution Systems with DistributedGenerators
(2012-05)Traditional distribution systems are designed with a radial structure. As a result, their protection systems are designed and set based on one utility source feeding the whole system. Nowadays, Distributed Generators (DG) ... -
Comparative Evaluation of Activated Carbon and Granulated Blast Furnace Slag in Treating Greywater
(2020-05)Recycling greywater (GW) for on-site, non-potable application can reduce the load to wastewater treatment plants and stress on potable water demand for domestic water supply. However, utilization of GW requires careful ... -
A Comparative Study between Modals in ESL/EFL Tertiary Textbooks and Actual Use by EFL Teachers
(2008-06)Teaching English modals to young adult and adult learners of English as a foreign language (EFL learners) is pedagogically a challenging task because some ESL/EFL tertiary textbooks do not present modals and their uses ... -
A Comparative Study for Various Coil Geometries in Electric Vehicle Wireless Charging System.
(2020-11)Inductive coupling wireless power transfer technology is gaining interest in recent years, especially in the field of wireless charging. Range limitations and charging of electric vehicles are major concerns in the modern ... -
Comparative Study of Control Strategies for Under Actuated Manipulator
(2006-06)Underactuated mechanical systems are systems with fewer control inputs (actuators) than degrees of freedom. They arise in many applications such as underwater robots, mobile robots and manipulators with passive joints. ... -
Comparison of Whole-class Discussion and Task-based Activity: A Small-Scale Study
(2020-05)This study examined the participation patterns and effectiveness of two different sets of materials applied with two different treatments: Treatment 1 consisted of a Task-based activity; Treatment 2 used a whole-class ... -
Compressive Behavior of Slender Circular Columns with Double GFRP Spirals and Bars
(2021-04)Despite the recent research efforts and developments, many building codes and standards, e.g. ACI 440.1R-15 and CSA S806-12, recommend ignoring Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) reinforcement in design for compression. This ... -
Computational Fluid Dynamics of Energy Separation in Vortex Tube
(2021-05)Devil’s Tube is the name that some researchers chose for Ranque-Hilsch vortex tube because of the ambiguity of its working mechanism. In an attempt to unveil the principle of energy separations in this tube, this study ... -
Conceptual Design and Analysis of Concentrated Photovoltaic Thermal (CPVT) Solar Collectors with Different Configurations
(2015-05)In light of the globally dwindling fossil fuel reserves, escalating fuel prices, and growing environmental concerns; the need for energy-efficient and environmentally-benign sustainable energy solutions becomes direr than ... -
Conserved-Mass Metastructures For Vibration Suppression
(2019-04)Vibration suppression, cancellation or absorption is an expansive field of research, which has been the focus of numerous studies performed by scientists and engineers for decades. Metamaterials are a new class of semi-active ... -

Contextual Emphasis in the Holy Quran and its Translation into English
(2016-11)This thesis tackles the translation of emphasis in the Holy Quran. To achieve this aim, relevant translation theories are invoked, and the context of the Quranic text carefully examined. The use of emphatic devices (my ... -
Control and Optimization of Membrane Biological Reactor Processes
(2011-01)Membrane biological reactor (MBR) is an emerging technology adopted for domestic and industrial wastewater treatment. The high selectivity of the semi permeable membrane to water results in membrane fouling. Fouling is a ... -
Control of Flow Past an Airfoil Section Using Rotating Cylinders
(2015-02)The flow past a NACA 0024 airfoil with a leading edge rotating cylinder is simulated numerically using the ANSYS CFX software. To delay the boundary layer separation from the airfoil surface, different configurations for ... -
Coping with Neologisms in English / Arabic Translation
(2009-04)This thesis explores the strategies Arab translators use when dealing with English new terms (neologisms) that do not readily have apparent equivalents in Arabic. The techniques or strategies, which will be identified in ... -
Corporate Diversification, Earnings Management, and Financial Statement Readability
(2023-11)I examine the implications of corporate diversification on the quality of financial reporting measured as earnings management and financial statement readability. The results reveal that diversified firms have a lower ... -
Cortical EEG Source Localization of Focal Epilepsy
(2017-11)Brain source localization allows us to localize different brain regions that are activated during neural activity. Several imaging modalities can be used for recording neural activity and are essential in clinical applications. ...
