Structure Mixture Response Of Buildings Due To Simulated Earthquake Loading
(
Qatar University
, 2002 , Article)
This paper presents two case studies to evaluate the performance of the structure mixture theory in the earthquake response analysis of buildings. In the first case study, the actual earthquake responses of the two-story ...
Stability Of Square Interval Matrices For Discrete Time Systems
(
Qatar University
, 2001 , Article)
New sufficient conditions for the Schur stability of interval matrices are provided. Moreover, a time saving version of a necessary and sufficient condition for the Schur stability of a class of interval matrices is ...
Application Of Neural Generated Error Signal In Classification And Compression Of Ecg Beats
(
Qatar University
, 2002 , Article)
This paper presents a neural network architecture connected in cascade for ECG Holter system beat classification and compression. The system works in real time, on line, and is capable of recognizing and compressing up to ...
Performance Of A Cool Thermal Store Filled With Balls Containing Water
(
Qatar University
, 2001 , Article)
A cool thermal storage (CTS) system can be integrated with an A/C system in order to reduce power consumption during a period of high demand. Investigator conducted experiments to investigate the performance of a CTS during ...
Finite Element Analysis Of Tubular Induction Accelerators
(
Qatar University
, 2001 , Article)
The paper develops a method of analyzing tubular induction accelerators based on the finite element technique. The method takes end effects (due to current discontinuities at the rotor edges) into consideration. The ...
Effect Of Production Induced Stresses On Reservoir Productivity
(
Qatar University
, 2001 , Article)
The importance of permeability sensitivity to the changes in pore pressure drop or effective overburden stress increase has been examined at laboratory using two types of rocks, sandstone and limestone. Whereas the ...
Causes For Delays In Construction Projects In Kuwait
(
Qatar University
, 2002 , Article)
The paper presents a study based on a research that analyzes and ranks the causes of delays in building and housing type projects undertaken by governmental agencies in Kuwait. The study was based on a survey with the ...
Performance Evaluation Of Biped Robot Optimal Gait Based On Genetic Algorithm
(
Qatar University
, 2001 , Article)
A Genetic Algorithm (GA) gait synthesis method for walking biped robots is considered in this paper. The walking occupy most of the time during the task performance, therefore its gait is analyzed based on the minimum ...
Experimental And Modeling Of Friables And Stone Oil Reservoirs Consolidation Using Steel Making Slag
(
Qatar University
, 2001 , Article)
A mathematical model was developed simulating the process of sand production in under downhole stress state. The model was derived based on Mohr-Colomb failure criterion, Darcy equation for radial flow and reservoir stress ...
Use Of Cement By-Pass Dust In Soil Stabilization
(
Qatar University
, 2001 , Article)
Cement by-pass dust (CBPD) or cement kiln dust (CKD) is a by-product of the manufacture of Portland cement. It is generated during the calcining process in the kiln. Lime (CaO) constitutes more than 60% of CBPD composition. ...
