Aquifer storage and recovery (ASR): A strategic cost-effective facility to balance water production and demand for Sharjah
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2004 , Article)
Aquifer storage and recovery was evaluated as a strategic water storage facility and as a tool to reduce overallcost of water production. This work investigated the size, cost, and mode of operation required to run the ...
A performance study of dual-hop transmissions with fixed gain relays
(
IEEE
, 2004 , Article)
This letter presents a study on the end-to-end performance of dual-hop wireless communication systems equipped with nonregenerative fixed gain relays and operating over flat Rayleigh-fading channels. More specifically, it ...
Neural network model-based predictive control of liquid–liquid extraction contactors
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2004 , Article)
The inherent complex nonlinear dynamic characteristics and time varying transients of the liquid–liquid extraction process draw the attention to the application of nonlinear control techniques. In this work, neural ...
C-Reactive Protein in the Premature Rupture of the Membranes
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2004 , Article)
Premature rupture of the membranes (PROM) defined as a rupture of membranes before onset of labor, which is one of the most complications of pregnancy that leads to significant maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. ...
The Structure of the Free Volume in Poly(styrene-co-acrylonitrile) from Positron Lifetime and Pressure Volume Temperature (PVT) Experiments
(
WILEY-VCH Verlag
, 2004 , Article)
Summary: The structure of the free volume and its temperature dependence between 25 and 190 °C of copolymers of styrene with acrylonitrile, SAN (0 to 50 mol-% AN), is studied by pressure volume temperature (PVT) experiments ...
A simplified method for calculating saturated liquid densities
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2004 , Article)
A simplification for the Nasrifar–Moshfeghian (NM) liquid density correlation has been developed. A replacement for the Mathias and Copeman temperature-dependent term with the original Soave–Redlich–Kwong equation of state ...
Optimal power allocation for relayed transmissions over Rayleigh-fading channels
(
IEEE
, 2004 , Article)
Relayed transmission is a way to attain broader coverage by splitting the communication link from the source to the destination into several shorter links/hops. One of the main advantages of this communication technique ...
A Novel Resolver-to-360° Linearized Converter
(
IEEE
, 2004 , Article)
A novel and simple resolver-to-dc converter is presented. It is shown that by appropriate processing of the sine and cosine resolver signals, the proposed converter may produce an output voltage proportional to the shaft ...
Determination and selecting the optimum thickness of insulation for buildings in hot countries by accounting for solar radiation
(
Elsevier
, 2004 , Article)
Determination and selecting the optimum thickness of insulation is the prime interest of many engineering applications. One of those applications is insulating buildings with an appropriate insulation. Calculations have ...
Modeling, simulation and control of a scheibel liquid–liquid contactor: Part 1. Dynamic analysis and system identification
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2004 , Article)
The liquid–liquid extraction process is well-known for its complexity and often entails intensive modeling and computational efforts to simulate its dynamic behaviour. However, rigorous mathematical models are usually ...
