Flow mapping of multiphase flows using a novel single stem endoscopic particle image velocimetry instrument
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
Particle image velocimetry (PIV) is a successful flow mapping technique which can optically quantify large portions of a flow regime. This enables the method to be completely non-intrusive. The ability to be non-intrusive ...
Characterisation of multiphase fluid-structure interaction using non-intrusive optical techniques
(2011 , Article)
The purpose of this study is to determine experimentally the effectiveness of passive drag reduction techniques (which involve adjusting surface geometry) within a chaotic multiphase flow system. To quantify the intrusion ...
The Impacts of System and Human Factors on Online Learning Systems Use and Learner Satisfaction
(
Blackwell Publishing Inc
, 2011 , Article)
Success in an online learning environment is tied to both human and system factors. This study illuminates the unique contributions of human factors (comfort with online learning, self-management of learning, and perceived ...
Enhancing a bank’s competitive advantage through the integration of TQM practices, entrepreneurial orientation (EO), and organizational culture.
(2011 , Article)
In the current changing business environment, banks, among other organizations, are required not only to create their competitive advantage to lead the trend, but also to be able to sustain and upgrade the created competitive ...
On the boundedness of rough oscillatory singular integrals on Triebel-Lizorkin spaces
(
springer link
, 2011 , Article)
We obtain appropriate sharp bounds on Triebel-Lizorkin spaces for rough oscillatory integrals with polynomial phase. By using these bounds and using an extrapolation argument we obtain some new and previously known results ...
On certain estimates of rough oscillatory singular integrals
(2011 , Article)
We obtain appropriate sharp estimates for rough oscillatory integrals with polynomial phase. Our results represent significant improvements as well as natural extensions of what was known previously.
Approaching what we hope for and avoiding what we fear: A study of women's concern with visible signs of skin aging
(
SAGE
, 2011 , Article)
This paper proposes to examine how priming approach and avoidance goal orientations moderates consumer goal-directed preferences for products and services. These effects are studied in the context of women's concern with ...
An exploration into the religious and symbolic meanings of gendered spaces in an Arab gulf home
(2011 , Conference Paper)
Houses are rich symbols representative of culture, self and identity (Marcus 1995). The current research provides a comparative perspective on Arab-Islamic (Qatari) and Western values as encoded in the home and use of ...
