Engaging Engineering Students in Active Learning and Critical Thinking through Class Debates
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Within the program of engineering, typically there are courses that are heavily dependent on mathematics and derivations of fundamental concepts. A lot of active learning can be done in these classes by using the engineering ...
A weight-management camp followed by weekly after-school lifestyle education sessions as an obesity intervention for Qatari children: a prospective cohort study
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Background Weight-management camp interventions for obese children are eff ective for short-term weight loss. However, there is little evidence indicating how gains made with such interventions can be maintained in the ...
Towards commercialization of self-healing technology in epoxy coatings
(
National Assoc. of Corrosion Engineers International
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This work is focused on developing viable self-healing coatings especially considering the viability of the coating in a commercial context. With this in mind, finding low cost healing agents, with satisfactory healing and ...
Effect of the length of silicon nano-dot/wire on band gap
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. (IEEE)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
We will report on the role of the length of silicon nanowire (SNW) in determining the band gap of a structure. We find that the band gap decreases with SNW length for the same diameter and approaches the band gap for an ...
Oxygen passivation as effective technique for tailoring the nature of band gap of silicon nanowires
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. (IEEE)
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Silicon nanowires have been subjected to several experiential and theoretical studies, including chemical tuning with different substituents aiming to tailor the band gap as well as increasing optical absorption efficiency ...
Numerical study on settlement of piled foundations on homogenous rock
(
Taylor and Francis
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Settlement behavior of piled foundations on homogenous rock was investigated using an extensive three-dimensional finite element analysis of different piled-foundation models. Effects of pile slenderness ratio, pile spacing, ...
Laboratory testing of full-scale pipes partially embedded in soil to study soil-pipe interaction of offshore seabed oil and gas pipelines - Initial observations
(
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
The geotechnical aspect of the design of off-shore oil and gas pipelines is a challenge due to inherent uncertainties in predicting soil-pipe interaction behaviour. Physical modeling is often sought after to gain insight ...
Geotechnical considerations on the design of piled rafts on rock
(
Research Publishing Services
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
This research shows the effect of misestimating the pile spring constant (Kpl) and the modulus of subgrade reaction (Ksg) on design of piled rafts on rock. The high mass stiffness of rock contacting the base of such rafts ...
Monitoring of simple linear quality profiles using dEWMA statistic under uncertainty of process deviations
(
IEOM Society
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
The quality of process or product is often characterized by the univariate or multivariate distribution of quality characteristics. The linear profiles are widely used to model the relationship between dependent and ...
Microstructural investigation of gamma-irradiated ultra high molecular weight polyethylene in nitrogen atmosphere
(
Trans Tech Publications
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
In this paper the results of structural changes in ultra high molecular polyethylene (UHMWPE) upon gamma irradiation and storage in nitrogen environment are reported. Based on differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), wide ...
