Potential for green algae spirulina to capture carbon dioxide from gas stream
(
TechConnect
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This study evaluated the use of green algae Spirulina microalgae as a C02 capturing technology at different temperatures. The growth of Spirulina at 25 and 30◦C were studied in synthetic wastewater and its performance in ...
On the evaluation of flue gases capturing capacity of porous organic materials
(
Avestia Publishing
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) has been emerged as an efficient alternative to post and oxy-combustion systems for power generation with controllable CO2 capture and separation. However, this system operates ...
Enhanced Thermal Performance of Mosques in Qatar
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Qatar has an abundance of mosques that significantly contribute to the increasing energy consumption in the country. Little attention has been given to providing mitigation methods that limit the energy demands of mosques ...
Ground-borne vibrations due to railway traffic in urbanized areas: A numerical study about traffic in trench cross-sections
(
National Technical University of Athens
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Modern cities require efficient mass transportation systems like subway and railway networks. Due to the lack of available space and also due to environmental concerns, it is usually preferable to use the underground space ...
Detection of atrial fibrillation in ECG hand-held devices using a random forest classifier
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is characterized by chaotic electrical impulses in the atria, which leads to irregular heartbeats and can develop blood clots and stroke. Therefore, early detection of AF is crucial for increasing ...
Characterisation of major fault detection features and techniques for the condition-based monitoring of high-speed centrifugal blowers
(
International Institute of Acoustics and Vibrations
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This paper investigates and characterises the major fault detection signal features and techniques for the diagnostics of rotating element bearings and air leakage faults in high-speed centrifugal blowers. The investigation ...

Copernicus GmbH
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Nowadays, in a rapidly developing urban environment with bigger and higher public buildings, disasters causing emergency situations and casualties are unavoidable. Preparedness and quick response are crucial issues saving ...
Crowdsourced MultiView Live Video Streaming using Cloud Computing
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Multi-view videos are composed of multiple video streams captured simultaneously using multiple cameras from various angles (different viewpoints) of a scene. Multi-view videos offer more appealing and realistic view of ...
Adaptive model of thermal comfort for office buildings in GCC
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) nations top the world in CO2 emissions/ capita. However, plummeting oil prices and increasing energy demands necessitate rethinking on thermal comfort delivery. This region has warm desert ...
