NEW APPROACH OF PIPELINES JOINING USING FIBER REINFORCED PLASTICS COMPOSITES
(2018 , Master Thesis)It is well known that maintenance of pipelines failures due to leakage or rupture caused by either corrosion or lack of strength is a significant challenge for pipelines engineers. Pipelines joining is considered as a ... -
Novel Process for Designing Topology Optimized Femoral Stems Printable by Metal Additive Manufacturing
(2019 , Master Thesis)Total hip arthroplasty faces an issue of the high cost and risks of revision surgeries. Studies show that more than 50% of the revision surgeries are the consequence of the aseptic loosening of the implant. The cause ... -
Numerical Analysis of a Sacrificial Cladding Panel Subjected to Localized Near-Field Impulsive Load
(2019 , Master Thesis)Extensive research focus had been given to sacrificial sandwiched panels used to mitigate the effects of blast loads. This is due to their ability to distribute the load and absorbing significant portions of the blast ... -
NUMERICAL INVESTIGATION OF THE POTENTIAL OF USING HYDROGEN AS AN ALTERNATIVE FUEL FOR AN INDUSTRIAL BURNER
(2024 , Master Thesis)The impact of emissions resulting from burning many types of fuels is one of the biggest problems that affect the environment. Attention has recently been drawn to using some gases and mixing them with specific types of ... -
Numerical Simulation of Dynamic Response For Misalignment In Coupled Shafts
(2019 , Master Thesis)Preceded by unbalance, misalignment is the second most common fault in rotating machinery. The impact of misalignment fault on equipment can be severe and may considerably shorten the machine’s lifetime. This dissertation ... -
PERFORMANCE OPTIMIZATION OF PROPANE PRE-COOLED MIXED REFRIGERANT (C3MR) PROCESS FOR NATURAL GAS LIQUEFACTION
(2024 , Master Thesis)The global population surge and economic development project a substantial increase in energy demand. By 2030, NG is expected to contribute 25% of the global energy demand to meet this growth. LNG technology, particularly ... -
Prediction of Optimal Hexagonal Interior Angle for Energy Absorption: Ann to Predict In-Between Experimental Data
(2021 , Master Thesis)This thesis's proposed strategic procedure is to predict the interior angle of a hexagonal passive energy absorber structure based on specific properties using an ANN model, which has a great potential to be used as ... -
RECYCLING FLARE SOURCE HYDROCARBON GASES IN AN INDUSTRIAL BURNER FOR PETROCHEMICAL PLANTS
(2024 , Master Thesis)Flaring is an essential part of each industrial plant in the oil and gas industry, but excessive flaring during unplanned plant upsets will eventually pose significant challenges to the environment and operational costs. ... -
Reduced Graphene Oxide Incorporated GELMA Hydrogel Promotes Angiogenesis for Wound Healing Applications
(2019 , Master Thesis)Non-healing or slow healing of chronic wounds is among the serious complications of diabetes. The decrease in blood supply due to lack of angiogenesis leads to reduced supply of oxygen, nutrients and growth factors ... -
Safe and Adaptive Social Robots for Children with Autism
(2020 , Dissertation)Social robots are being considered to be a part of the therapy for children with autism due to the reported efficacy such technology in improving the outcomes. How ever, children diagnosed with autism exhibit challenging ... -
SELF-HEALING HYBRID SILICA NANOPARTICLES FOR ENHANCEMENT OF POLYURETHANE COATING ANTICORROSION PROPERTIES
(2024 , Master Thesis)Corrosion, a universal issue impacting steel's longevity, necessitates innovative protection methods. Traditional coatings offer limited resistance against physical damage and environmental factors, prompting the exploration ... -
Semi-Active Vibration Isolator Using Magnetorheological Elastomer (MRE)
(2020 , Master Thesis)Smart materials are materials by which their properties are able to be altered due to external stimuli such as temperature, pressure and magnetic field. Magnetorheological Elastomer (MRE) is a type of smart composite ... -
SUPPLY CHAIN MODELING OF ADDITIVELY MANUFACTURED VERSUS CNC-PRODUCED SPARE PARTS
(2023 , Master Thesis)This research proposes a generic BLOC-ICE-based framework that considers multiple aspects of the adoption of additive manufacturing (AM) in the spare part supply chain. It proposes also a multi-period multiple parts ... -
THE EFFECT OF GROOVING, EXTERNAL, AND INTERNAL GFRP OVERWRAPPED PVC TUBES ON CRASHWORTHINESS CHARACTERISTICS
(06-2 , Master Thesis)Several factors that affect the crashworthiness characteristics were investigated using GFRP overwrapped PVC composite tubes. Composite tubes studied alongside the PVC were non-grooved tubes wrapped externally or internally, ... -
THERMAL COMFORT CONDITIONS OF AN INDOOR SWIMMING POOL
(2023 , Master Thesis)In this thesis, the thermal comfort and indoor conditions for an indoor swimming pool located in desert climate are investigated numerically. Such climate is characterized by very mild winters, and very hot and sunny summers ... -
TOWARDS AN EFFICIENT HEALTH CONDITION MONITORING STRATEGY APPLIED FOR GEARING MECHANICAL SYSTEMS
(2023 , Master Thesis)Cracked teeth are a common phenomenon for gears. The dynamic behavior of gears in the presence of cracks and poor lubrication conditions that lead to rubbing between teeth are not well understood, which limits the development ... -
