Decision Support Model for Selecting the Project Delivery Method for Sustainable Construction Projects
(2023-03)As the demand for sustainable construction increases, the need to update project management practices in order to satisfy the objectives of sustainability becomes more significant. Project delivery method is a crucial ... -
Two-Stage Deep Learning Solution for Continuous Arabic Sign Language Recognition Using Word Count Prediction and Motion Images
(IEEE, 2023)Recognition of continuous sign language is challenging as the number of words is a sentence and their boundaries are unknown during the recognition stage. This work proposes a two-stage solution in which the number of words ... -
Incorporating nanoparticles in 3D printed scaffolds for bone cancer therapy
(Elsevier, 2023)The low occurrence rate of bone cancer contributes to delayed diagnosis and treatment; in addition, the surgical resection of bone tumors can cause significant bone defects, further hindering the effective treatment of the ... -
Impact of Ionic Strength and Charge Density on Donnan Potential in the NaCl-Cation Exchange Membrane System
(MDPI, 2023)This work aims to theoretically investigate the effect of both the fixed charge density of ion exchange membranes and the ionic strength of the treated aqueous NaCl solution on the generated Donnan potential at thermodynamic ... -
GIS-BIM Based Regional Seismic Risk Assessment for Dubai, UAE
(2023-05)In the last two decades, the construction sector in UAE has been expanded to include a high range of tall and supertall buildings. Geographically, this region is surrounded by multiple earthquakes, such as the Zagros Fold ... -
Eastern Germany's Transportation System: Can it Compete in Europe 1992?
(Physica-Verlag, Heidelberg, 1991)The eastern German rail system is operating with one half the line network of western Germany, but approximately the same numer of employees and amount of freight carriage. The two rail systems are proportionately about ... -
Effect of phospholipid head group on ultrasound‑triggered drug release and cellular uptake of immunoliposomes
(Nature, 2023)Liposomes are the most successful nanoparticles used to date to load and deliver chemotherapeutic agents to cancer cells. They are nano-sized vesicles made up of phospholipids, and targeting moieties can be added to their ... -
A Study of the Impact of the Climate and Land-use/Land-cover (LULC) Changes on the UAE Mangrove Forests over the Period 1990-2020
(2023-06)Mangroves are integral part of coastal ecosystem, demonstrating resiliency against adverse anthropogenic and environmental effects. They provide blue carbon stock and security against coastal erosion and act as a nutrient ... -
Effects of mechano-electrical feedback on the onset of alternans: A computational study
(AIP, 2019-06)Cardiac alternans is a heart rhythm instability that is associated with cardiac arrhythmias and may lead to sudden cardiac death. The onset of this instability, which is linked to period-doubling bifurcation and may be a ... -
Mxene-Based Implantable and Flexible Electrodes for Neuromuscular Monitoring
(2023-06)Biocompatible and long lasting bioelectrodes have advanced neural sensing and muscle stimulation research in recent years. Previously, bioelectrodes constructed from metals suffered from mechanical and immunological ... -
A Simulation Study of the Role of Mechanical Stretch in Arrhythmogenesis during Cardiac Alternans
(Biophysical Society, 2021-01)The deformation of the heart tissue due to the contraction can modulate the excitation, a phenomenon referred to as mechanoelectrical feedback (MEF), via stretch-activated channels. The effects of MEF on the electrophysiology ... -
Efficiency of semi-implicit alternating direction implicit methods for solving cardiac monodomain model
(Elsevier, 2021-01)It is well known that numerical simulations of the cardiac monodomain model require fine mesh resolution, which increases the computational resources required. In this paper, we construct three operator-splitting alternating ... -
A projection scheme for phase change problems with convection
(Elseiver, 2022-01)Numerical modeling of phase change problems with convection is known to be computationally expensive. The main challenge comes from the coupling between Navier–Stokes and heat energy equations. In this paper, we develop a ...
