Minimizing The State Of Health Degradation Of Li-Ion Battery For Low Earth Orbit Satellites
(2018-04)
Satellites have a tangible impact on our daily lives; they provide us with many services like communication, global positioning etc. Satellites may be sent to space for prolonged periods of time. There are several mission ...
Design of Robust Controllers for a Rotary Wing Helicopter
(2013-06)
Due to inherent instability, parametric variations, changing properties during flight, and uncertainties in predicting aerodynamic coefficients, helicopter flight control requires strategies with enough robustness to cope ...
Framework for a Decision Matrix in Green Project Management Processes
(2015-01)
The purpose of this study is to develop a decision matrix for green project management processes (GPMPs) in commercial construction projects. A decision matrix for GPMPs can assist in decoding all the information required ...

(2016-09)
Chronic respiratory diseases are diseases of the airways and other structures of the lung, usually resulting in difficulty in breathing and other symptoms. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and Asthma are ...
A Theoretical Approach towards the Modeling of Vibrothermography Using Finite Element Methods
(2019-04)
The demand for preventive maintenance in the aerospace industry has been growing as part of life extension programs. Due to its reduced inspection time, part preparation requirements, floor space, and environmental concerns, ...
Estimating Dust Accumulation on Photovoltaic Modules in the UAE
(2019-05)
Among the challenges facing solar photovoltaic (PV) systems in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), dust is considered the most severe problem that faces the growth of solar power plants. Dust accumulation on solar PV panels ...
Neural Networks as a Convex Problem
(2016-09)
We reformulated the problem of training the neural networks model into a convex optimization problem by performing a local quadratic expansion of the cost function and adding the necessary constraints. We designed a new ...
Towards a Critical Construction Management Research Agenda in the MENA Region
(2014-03)
Research in construction management has seen a lot of growth in recent years. The contribution of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is still relatively low. There is a need to identify the causes of the low ...
