Functionally graded porous femoral stem: Computational Analysis
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Hip implants fail for many reasons. One of these reasons is due to aseptic loosening which causes bone resorption. The paper is oriented to investigate functionally graded porous stems by incorporating unique porous ...
Axial pull-out response of a small-scale concrete pile subjected to cyclic thermal loading in sand
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Energy piles support structural loads and exchange heat with surrounding soils using closed-loop ground source heat pump (GSHP) systems. A GSHP connected to an energy pile operates in cycles where it functions for a period ...
Supply Chain Linked Sustainability Assessment of Electric Vehicles: The Case for Qatar
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Electric vehicles are important technologies to reduce adverse environmental impacts stemming from transportation. In this paper, we investigated the environmental, social, and economic impacts of electric vehicles in ...
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 ...
Stateless Security Risk Assessment for Dynamic Networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Emerging networking technologies, such as cloud and Software Defined Networking, provide flexibility, elasticity and functionalities to change the network configurations over time. However, changes also impose unpredictable ...
OCR-based hardware implementation for qatari number plate on the Zynq SoC
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) systems have become widely used for safety, security, and commercial purposes. A typical ANPR system is based on three essential stages: Number Plate Localization (NPL), Character ...
Optimal PMU placement for large practical systems Qatar grid as an example
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) is a measurement devices capable of providing measurements with high accuracy, but due to its high cost it is desired to find the optimal placement for them. This paper tries to address the ...
An H-Bridge Modular DC-DC Converter with Bidirectional Flyback-Based Energy Equalization Modules
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Conventional Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) is a promising candidate in high-voltage high-power applications. Unfortunately, operating the conventional MMC with DC output voltage results in unbalanced capacitors' ...
Short survey of techniques for visualizing events recorded in logs
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Nowadays, data is being generated in large volumes and the users are left with a staggering amount of textual data that needs to be transformed into information to derive some knowledge from it. However, transforming and ...
Multi-tasking for cost-efficient mobile crowdsensing under uniformity constraints
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
In a practical Mobile Crowd Sensing (MCS) system, there usually exist multiple heterogeneous MCS tasks, each with a different set of requirements for completion. The coexistence of these MCS tasks presents a need to study ...
