Multi-objective sensor placement using the effective independence model (SPEM) for wireless sensor networks in structural health monitoring
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This paper studies the optimal placement problem in structural health monitoring (SHM) using wireless sensor networks (WSN). This problem is formulated as a refined multi-objective optimization problem with various constraints ...
Empowering Emirati women through entrepreneurship: Success factors and financial resource acquisition perspective
(
International Business Information Management Association, IBIMA
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
The purpose of this research is to identify the business success and financial resource acquisition factors, the problem areas and developmental issues allied to Emirati female entrepreneurs in the United Arab Emirates. A ...
Vector anisotropic filter for multispectral image denoising
(
SPIE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we propose an approach to extend the application of anisotropic Gaussian filtering for multi- spectral image denoising. We study the case of images corrupted with additive Gaussian noise and use sparse matrix ...
A problem-oriented approach to represent and manage knowledge in PBL
(
Asia-Pacific Society for Computers in Education
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In traditional subject-based learning knowledge is well-structured and prepared in advance by the teachers before transferring in the form of a lecture presentation. However, the knowledge learned in problem-based learning ...
Reaction kinetics of some important alkanolamines with carbon dioxide in aqueous solutions using stopped flow technique
(
AIChE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
The kinetics of the reactions between aqueous solutions of carbon dioxide and Aminomethylpropanol (AMP), Aminobutanol (AB), Aminopropanol (AP), Diethanolamine (DEA) and Ethanolamine (MEA) were investigated over a temperature ...
Micro-Doppler characteristics of elderly gait patterns with walking AIDS
(
SPIE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we analyze the micro-Doppler signatures of elderly gait patterns in the presence of walking AIDS using radars. The signatures are based on real data experiments conducted in a laboratory environment using ...
Space vector pulse width modulation techniques for a five-phase impedeance source and quazi impedeance source inverters
(
IEEE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Impedance source inverter (ZSI) and its variant quasi impedance source inverter (qZSI) are single stage inverters that transform dc to ac and boost the source voltage at the same time. These topologies have attracted great ...
Effect of bone density on the compressive mechanical properties of bovine trabecular bone
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
The density of bone is subject to change due to natural causes or bone abnormalities and disorders such as osteopenia, osteomalacia and osteoporosis. One of the most concerning attributes of osteoporosis is its non-expressive ...
Energy-efficient cooperative relaying protocol for full-duplex cognitive radio users and delay-aware primary users
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This paper considers a network in which a primary user (PU) may cooperate with a cognitive radio (CR) user for transmission of its data packets. The PU is assumed to be a buffered terminal operating in a time-slotted ...
Histogram-based thresholding in discrete wavelet transform for partial discharge signal denoising
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
White noise is a major interference source that affects the partial discharge (PD) signal detection and recognition. Wavelet shrinkage denoising methods can efficiently reject the white noise embedded in the PD signal ...
