Synthesis and Performance Evaluation of Pulse Electrodeposited Ni-AlN Nanocomposite Coatings
(
Hindawi Limited
, 2018 , Article)
This research work presents the microscopic analysis of pulse electrodeposited Ni-AlN nanocomposite coatings using SEM and AFM techniques and their performance evaluation (mechanical and electrochemical) by employing ...
Effectiveness of Consistency Measures in Crash Prediction Models for Two-Lane Highways in Palestine
(
Springer Verlag
, 2018 , Article)
Crash prediction models (CPMs) are important tools to predict the safety performance of highways based on their operational and geometric characteristics. Most of these models use geometric design characteristics to predict ...
Corrosion behavior of API X100 steel material in a hydrogen sulfide environment
(
MDPI AG
, 2017 , Article)
Recently, the API X100 steel has emerged as an important pipeline material for transportation of crude oil and natural gas. At the same time, the presence of significant amounts of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in natural gas and ...
Active and stable methane oxidation nano-catalyst with highly-ionized palladium species prepared by solution combustion synthesis
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
We report on the synthesis and testing of active and stable nano-catalysts for methane oxidation. The nano-catalyst was palladium/ceria supported on alumina prepared via a one-step solution-combustion synthesis (SCS) method. ...
Insights into charge carrier dynamics in organo-metal halide perovskites: From neat films to solar cells
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2017 , Article Review)
Organo-metal halide perovskites have recently obtained world-wide attention as promising solar cell materials. They have broad and strong light absorption along with excellent carrier transport properties which partially ...
Robotic probe positioning system for structural health monitoring
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Structural health Monitoring (SHM) is a very critical component for sustainable civil and mechanical structures in modern urban settings. The sky-scrappers and huge bridges in modern metropolis today are essential aspects ...
An Interactive Visualization Web Solution for Electricity Consumption in Qatar
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The amount of raw data related to electricity companies is increasing rapidly with the increase of construction sites, population and Qatar preparation for 2022 world cup. A question arises from this situation is: How can ...
Erosion behavior of API X120 steel: Effect of particle speed and impact angle
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
The dry erosion behavior of API-X120 pipeline steel was investigated, under the erosive interaction of aluminum oxide particulates, in a range of speed (43-167 m·s-1) and impact angle (30°-90°). Erosion behavior is ...
Fabrication of polysulfone nanocomposite membranes with silver-doped carbon nanotubes and their antifouling performance
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2017 , Article)
In this study, polysulfone (PSf)/silver-doped carbon nanotube (Ag-CNT) nanocomposite membranes were prepared by a phase-inversion technique; they were characterized and evaluated for fouling-resistant applications with ...
A Real Case-Based Study Exploring Influence of Human Age and Gender on Drivers’ Behavior and Traffic Safety
(
Springer Verlag
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
The demand for understanding the functional relationship between changes in traffic safety level and human-related factors has increased remarkably due to a steady increase in population and traffic volume. Motor vehicle ...
