Empirical analysis of the cross-cultural information searching and travel behavior of business travelers: A case study of MICE travelers to Qatar in the Middle East
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Very few tourism geographers have investigated the way meetings, incentives, conventions, and exhibitions (MICE) travelers search for information and their travel behavior based on cultural background and country of origin. ...
Novel Cu (II) and Zn (II) complexes of 8-hydroxyquinoline derivatives as effective corrosion inhibitors for mild steel in 1.0?M HCl solution: Computer modeling supported experimental studies
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
In this work, we have synthesized and characterized novel complexes of copper (II) and zinc (II). These complexes were obtained by reacting of 5-azidomethyl-8-hydroxyquinoline with copper chloride dihydrate and zinc chloride ...
Model-based optimal boundary control of selective catalytic reduction in diesel-powered vehicles
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
This paper is devoted to design a model-based boundary optimal controller for selective catalytic reduction system. The mathematical model consists of coupled parabolic-hyperbolic PDEs with an ODE. The main objective is ...
First-principle studies on the gas phase OH-initiated oxidation of O-toluidine
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
In the present work, the gas phase reaction of OH radical initiated O-toluidine (OTOD) oxidation is investigated at ROCBS-QB3. Different pathways for OH radical additions to the benzene ring sites and H-atom abstractions ...
Cellulose nanofibers to assist the release of healing agents in epoxy coatings
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
Epoxy monomer and amine curing agents were immobilized on cellulose nanofibers (CNF). Obtained epoxy immobilized CNF (EiCNF) and amine curing agent immobilized CNF (AiCNF) were characterized using Fourier transform infrared ...
Use of water in aiding olefin/paraffin (liquid + liquid) extraction via complexation with a silver bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide salt
(
Academic Press
, 2014 , Article)
This paper describes the extraction of C5-C8 linear -olefins from olefin/paraffin mixtures of the same carbon number via a reversible complexation with a silver salt (silver bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imide, Ag[Tf2N]) ...
Development and surface modification of anion exchange membrane for enhancement of antifouling potential in electrodialys process
(
Parlar Scientific Publications
, 2018 , Article)
The membrane fouling in the course of electrodialysis (ED) is a serious problem during water treatment which results to its shorter lifetime and higher energy consumption. Here, the antifouling property of previously ...
Influence of solution chemistry on Cr(VI) reduction and complexation onto date-pits/tea-waste biomaterials
(2013 , Article)
Tea waste (TW) and Date pits (DP) were investigated for their potential to remove toxic Cr(VI) ions from aqueous solution. Investigations showed that the majority of the bound Cr(VI) ions were reduced to Cr(III) after ...

(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
A case study on innovation and creativity in engineering design instruction has been presented. The novel approach emphases on the role of student engagement, team spirit and industry support to students. This paper presented ...
Industrial case studies in the petrochemical and gas industry in Qatar for the utilization of industrial waste heat for the production of fresh water by membrane desalination
(
Taylor and Francis Inc.
, 2013 , Article)
An investigation into the potential of using industrial low-grade waste heat in desalination using membrane distillation (MD) has been carried out. This investigation highlighted the need to work on fresh water production ...
