A study on the bond behavior of different FRCM systems
( EDP Sciences , 2018 , Conference Paper)Fabric-reinforced cementitous matrix (FRCM) composites are usually applied on the concrete surface for the purpose of strengthening reinforced concrete structures. However, the efficiency of FRCM strengthening is notably ... -
A theoretical and experimental study of fast lower bounds for the two-dimensional bin packing problem
( EDP Sciences , 2018 , Article)We address the two-dimensional bin packing problem with fixed orientation. This problem requires packing a set of small rectangular items into a minimum number of standard two-dimensional bins. It is a notoriously intractable ... -
An exact approach for the multicommodity network optimization problem with a step cost function
( EDP Sciences , 2019 , Article)We investigate the Multicommodity Network Optimization Problem with a Step Cost Function (MNOP-SCF) where the available facilities to be installed on the edges have discrete step-increasing cost and capacity functions. ... -
Analyzing the Behavior of Classical Functionally Graded Coated Beam
( EDP Sciences , 2017 , Conference Paper)The governing equation of a classical rectangular coated beam made of two homogeneous layers at top ceramic coated layer and bottom metal layer and also single Functionally Graded Material (FGM) as a sub coated layer ... -
Association rule mining on five years of motor vehicle crashes
( EDP Sciences , 2016 , Conference Paper)Every year, road accidents kill more than a million people and injure more than 20 million worldwide. This paper aims to offer guidance on road safety and create awareness by pinpointing the major causes of traffic accidents. ... -
Behaviour of fibre reinforced concrete using steel slag coarse aggregate produced in Qatar
( EDP Sciences , 2017 , Conference Paper)The state of Qatar suffers from the shortage of natural resources needed for concrete production. Therefore, it is essential to investigate the feasibility of using by-product recycled materials as aggregates to maintain ... -
Characterization and application of FRCM as a strengthening material for shear-critical RC beams
( EDP Sciences , 2018 , Conference Paper)This paper investigates the effectiveness of fabric reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) systems in shear-strengthening of reinforced concrete beams. Three types of FRCM systems were considered, namely, polyparaphenylene ... -
Coordinated robotic system for civil structural health monitoring
( EDP Sciences , 2017 , Conference Paper)With the recent advances in sensors, robotics, unmanned aerial vehicles, communication, and information technologies, it is now feasible to move towards the vision of ubiquitous cities, where virtually everything throughout ... -
Cost benefit analysis for failure of sewer pipelines
( EDP Sciences , 2017 , Conference Paper)Sewer pipelines failure in sewage networks can have adverse potential impacts on socio-economic aspects in any community. Due to the fact that it's difficult to capture the relationship between the physical and economical ... -
Development of a mobile application for manual traffic counts
( EDP Sciences , 2017 , Conference Paper)The use of technology in performing traffic counts has become widely used by many transportation agencies and private sectors. Different technologies have been employed to perform such counts, such as inductive loops, image ... -
Dynamic 3D imaging of gas hydrate kinetics using synchrotron computed tomography
( EDP Sciences , 2020 , Conference Paper)The availability of natural gas hydrates and the continuing increase in energy demand, motivated researchers to consider gas hydrates as a future source of energy. Fundamental understanding of hydrate dissociation kinetics ... -
Effect of Pavement Surface Aging on Tire-Pavement Noise: A Case Study in the State of Qatar
( EDP Sciences , 2018 , Conference Paper)The acoustical performance of asphalt pavements changes with time due to combined effects of environmental conditions and various distresses induced by repeated and heavy traffic. This study examined the changes in the ... -
Improved human thermal comfort with indoor PCM-Enhanced tiles in living spaces in the arabian gulf
( EDP Sciences , 2018 , Conference Paper)Al-Majlis is the living space in residential buildings of the Arabian Gulf, and is where occupants spend most of their time. For this reason, the human thermal comfort in this space is of extreme importance and is often ... -
