, 2018 , Article)
Energy efficiency in buildings is crucial for the design of sustainable cities, especially in hot climates where demands are high. This study investigates the impact of the shading optical properties on the space energy ...
Honeycomb sandwich panels subjected to combined shock and projectile impact
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Structural response and failure modes of honeycomb sandwich panels subjected to a shock (impulsive pressure) followed by a high velocity projectile impact were investigated using detailed finite element simulations. ...
A transformerless STATCOM based on a hybrid Boost Modular Multilevel Converter with reduced number of switches
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
This paper proposes a new three-phase transformerless STATic synchronous COMpensator (STATCOM) for shunt reactive power compensation in medium/high-voltage applications. The proposed STATCOM is based on a hybrid Boost ...
Transient response of porous FG nanoplates subjected to various pulse loads based on nonlocal stress-strain gradient theory
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
Based on nonlocal strain gradient theory (NSGT), transient behavior of a porous functionally graded (FG) nanoplate due to various impulse loads has been studied. The porous nanoplate has evenly and unevenly distributed ...

To examine the within-trial costs and cost-effectiveness of using PARO, compared with a plush toy and usual care, for reducing agitation and medication use in people with dementia in long-term care. An economic evaluation, ...
Inference engine based on closure and join operators over Truth Table Binary Relations
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2014 , Article)
Abstract We propose a conceptual reasoning method for an inference engine. Starting from a knowledge base made of decision rules, we first map each rule to its corresponding Truth Table Binary Relation (TTBR), considered ...
Solar thermocatalytic conversion of CO2 using PrxSr(1?x)MnO3?? perovskites
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
The prime aim of this study was to examine the thermal reduction (TR) and CO2 splitting (CS) capacity of each PrxSr(1?x)MnO3?? (PSM) perovskite. A solution combustion synthesis (SCS) approach was applied for the synthesis ...
