Dependence of wear behavior on sintering mechanism for Iron-Alumina Metal Matrix Nanocomposites
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
The present paper reports the dependence of wear behavior on sintering mechanism for iron (Fe) alumina (Al2O3) metal matrix nanocomposites fabricated via Powder Metallurgy (P/M) technique. Nanocomposite composition was ...
Non-enzymatic biosensing of glucose based on silver nanoparticles synthesized from Ocimum tenuiflorum leaf extract and silver nitrate
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
An enzyme-free glucose sensor developed based on silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) via bio-mediated route using Ocimum tenuiflorum leaves extract. The Ag NPs were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), ultraviolet-visible ...
Bio-regeneration of activated carbon: A comprehensive review
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article Review)
The use of microorganisms to regenerate activated carbon (AC), bio-generation, can avert costly and logistically challenging ex-situ steam regeneration of carbon normally required to recover its adsorptive capacity. ...
Effect of outdoor temperature on the power-conversion efficiency of newly synthesized organic photosensitizer based dye-sensitized solar cells
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
In this work, organic photosensitizer has been synthesized for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The solar cells then fabricated have been characterized by photocurrent-voltage characteristics and electrochemical impedance ...
A comparative study on the operational performance of four-leg intersections by control type
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
The selection of proper control types at intersections at the planning stage is an important concern considering the difficulty in comparing the performance of different control types. Therefore, several manuals proposed ...
Changes in Driving Behavior Across Age Cohorts in an Arab Culture: The Case of State of Qatar
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
In this investigation, we aimed to examine the structure of the Driving Behavior Questionnaire (DBQ) across age cohorts spanning 14 to 55 years in the State of Qatar. In addition, we aimed to examine variations in driving ...
Performance evaluation of the inside intersection median-turn lane markings on the mobility and safety performance of signalized intersections in the Philippines and Japan
(

, 2018 , Article)
Signalized intersections are one of the key elements that play a vital role at road networks. The efficiency and safety levels of intersections can affect the operational performance of the whole system. In general, turning ...
Pedestrians' Speed Analysis at Signalized Crosswalks
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Pedestrian speed is essential for designing signal timings as well as for understanding pedestrian safety issues. This paper presents analysis of three types of pedestrian speeds (entry speed, crossing speed, and exit ...
Bentonite-decorated calix [4] arene: A new, promising hybrid material for heavy-metal removal
(
Elsevier
, 2018 , Article)
There is global concern about the contamination of ground, river, and tap waters as well as soil contamination with heavy metal ions; these chemical species are known to not degrade and to cause severe health problems if ...
