Acoustic Performance Evaluation of Dense-Graded Asphalt Pavements in Qatar
( Hindawi , 2021 , Article)There is pressing and growing demand from the public to design and construct roads with a low noise level. This paper investigated the acoustic performance of asphalt pavements in the State of Qatar to assist transport ... -
An Approach for Adjusting the Laboratory-Determined Dynamic Modulus Master Curve of Asphalt Layers Based on Falling Weight Deflectometer Measurements
( Hindawi , 2023 , Article)Structural assessment is critical for designing asphalt pavement overlays, estimating the remaining life of pavements, and selecting an appropriate rehabilitation strategy for existing pavements. The falling weight ... -
Combined direct oxy-combustion and concentrated solar supercritical carbon dioxide power system—Thermo, exergoeconomic, and quadruple optimization analyses
( Hindawi , 2022 , Article)For the global future energy systems, concentrated solar power (CSP) and direct CO2 capture systems are of the most important key technologies, however, each of these systems has shortcomings. This study addresses the solar ... -
Comparison of various functionally graded femoral prostheses by finite element analysis
( Hindawi , 2014 , Article)This study is focused on finite element analysis of a model comprising femur into which a femoral component of a total hip replacement was implanted. The considered prosthesis is fabricated from a functionally graded ... -
Ensemble Classifier for Epileptic Seizure Detection for Imperfect EEG Data
( Hindawi , 2015 , Article)Brain status information is captured by physiological electroencephalogram (EEG) signals, which are extensively used to study different brain activities.This study investigates the use of a new ensemble classifier to ... -
On the Suitability of Vibration Acceptance Criteria of Process Pipework
( Hindawi , 2022 , Article)The risk of vibration-induced fatigue in process pipework is usually assessed through vibration measurements. For small-bore pipework, integrity personnel would measure the vibration of the pipework and refer to widely ... -
Review of innovative approaches of thermo-mechanical refrigeration systems using low grade heat
( Hindawi , 2020 , Article)Cooling and refrigeration systems consume around 17% of the world-wide electricity. Enhancing the performance of these systems, using renewable energy resources and waste heat recovered from industrial processes, will lead ... -
State of the Art Study on Aging of Asphalt Mixtures and Use of Antioxidant Additives
( Hindawi , 2018 , Article)The detrimental effects of hardening in asphalt pavements were first recognized by pioneering pavement engineers in the 1900s and have been studied extensively during the last 70 years. This hardening process, referred to ...
