Evaluating greywater and A/C condensate daily volume and water quality in urban settings
(
American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
Due to increasing water demand as a result of population growth and improvement in living standards, many countries with arid climate are already facing water shortages that are being met by expensive desalination projects. ...
Adaptive and unequal probability survey designs for environmental management
(
The Modelling and Simulation Society of Australia and New Zealand Inc
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
Designing an efficient large-area survey is a challenge, especially in environmental science when many populations are rare and clustered. Adaptive and unequal probability sampling designs are appealing when populations ...
Multi-species attributes as the condition for adaptive sampling of rare species using two-stage sequential sampling with an auxiliary variable
(
The Modelling and Simulation Society of Australia and New Zealand Inc
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
Assessing populations of rare species is challenging because of the large effort required to locate patches of occupied habitat and achieve precise estimates of density and abundance. The presence of a rare species has ...
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 ...
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 ...

Learn-pads: A mathematical exergaming system for children's physical and mental well-being
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
Child obesity is one of the major challenges facing modern societies, especially in developed countries. Exergaming tools are considered as effective means to reduce obesity among kids because they require the children to ...
E-wobble: An electronic wobble board for ankle and toe rehabilitation
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
Foot-drop is a common symptom among post stroke patients. It is characterized by the inability of a person to raise his/her foot at the ankle and to drag the toes during swing. To overcome such disability, long-term ...
An assistive computerized system for children with moderate intellectual and learning disabilities
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
We aim in this project to develop a system for children with intellectual and learning disabilities that supports collaboration, data exploration, communication and creativity. The system offers specific tutorials on basic ...
