Situating Gulf's Oil and Gas Supply to Asia: Implications of US Shale Boom, Iran Sanctions and Trade War with China
(
Gulf Studies center - College of Arts & Sciences - Qatar University
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
The Middle Eastern Gulf region is Asias traditional supplier of oil and gas.
However, in the past two years, record oil and gas oil volumes from United States
have headed into Asia, riding high on the shale boom. While ...
DART: A large dataset of dialectal Arabic tweets
(
European Language Resources Association (ELRA)
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we present a new large manually-annotated multi-dialect dataset of Arabic tweets that is publicly available. The Dialectal ARabic Tweets (DART) dataset has about 25K tweets that are annotated via crowdsourcing ...
Learning predictive autoscaling policies for cloud-hosted microservices using trace-driven modeling
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Autoscaling methods are important to ensure response time guarantees for cloud-hosted microservices. Most of the existing state-of-the-art autoscaling methods use rule-based reactive policies with static thresholds defined ...
Effect of poly ethylene glycol (PEG) on structural, thermal and photoluminescence properties of CdO nanoparticles for optoelectronic applications
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Current study deals with capped/uncapped Cadmium Oxide Nanoparticles (CdO NPs) synthesized by chemical precipitation technique. Structural, morphological, thermal and optical properties of these samples were investigated ...
Combustion synthesized nickel-cobalt catalyst deactivation by coking during ethanol decomposition reaction
(
American Institute of Chemical Engineers
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
In this work, we
report the catalytic dehydrogenation of ethanol over porous cobalt oxide and nickel-cobalt
bimetal oxide (NiCoO2). Catalyst deactivation and the nature of carbon
formation on these two catalysts are ...
Experimental investigation of volume fraction in an annulus using electrical resistance tomography
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Horizontal drilling technology has shown to improve the production and cost-effectiveness of the well by generating multiple extraction points from a single vertical well. The efficiency of hole cleaning is reduced because ...
Hardware implementation of a new single input double output L-L converter for high voltage auxiliary loads in fuel-cell vehicles
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Typically, the fuel cell output voltage magnitude is low and a series connection of several fuel cells is not a practical solution to achieve high voltage for vehicular applications. Therefore, DC-DC converter with a high ...
Pore networks to characterize formation damage due to fines at varied confinement and sand shape
(
European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers, EAGE
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Carbon sequestration in geological formations is in demand for many applications, especially energy production from hydrates. During gas production in a sandy hydrate reservoir, two phase flow and changes in confinement ...
Active Vibration Isolation System (AVIS) using a Voice Coil Actuator to improve Free Space Optics Communication
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
In Free Space Optic communication (FSOC), transmitter and receiver's alignment is vital to maintain the line of sight during the whole communication period. This is critical in data transmission over a long-distance. ...
Spindle cell carcinoma of the breast: Rare cancer with potentially targetable biomarkers.
(
Elsevier
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Background Spindle cell carcinoma is a rare, metaplastic breast cancer (<1% of all breast carcinomas), with reportedly triple-negative (TNBC: ER-/PR-/Her2-) phenotype, associated with a marked resistance to conventional ...
