Real-Time Communication Network Using Firebase Cloud IoT Platform for ECMO Simulation
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a high-complexity life-saving procedure where quick and coordinated interventions are required to avoid mortality. ECMO perfusionists and nurses must be well trained to respond ...
Selected harmonics elimination in multilevel inverter using improved numerical technique
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
For medium voltage high power application the modulation technique for power converters based on pre-computed Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) switching patterns can be very useful since the generated harmonic content can be ...
Investigation of three-phase capacitor-tapped multi-module voltage source converter with selective harmonic elimination
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
In conventional Two-Level Voltage Source Converters (2L-VSCs), connecting between high/medium dc voltage and medium/low ac voltage requires semiconductor devices rated at the high/medium dc-voltage, which negatively affects ...
Development of an active noise control earplug
(
International Institute of Acoustics and Vibration, IIAV
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Active Noise Control (ANC) is used in controlling low frequency noise where passive control is ineffective. This paper presents the main results obtained from the development of an active noise control earplug for use in ...
Governance, product market competition and agency costs: Evidence from the UAE
(
Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Relying on two years' observations of 74 United Arab Emirates (UAE) listed firms, we examined the association between governance mechanisms (board size, audit committee, percentage of independent non-executive directors, ...
Towards a sustainable management of end-of-life vehicles in Qatar: A closed-loop circular economy model
(
IEOM Society
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
The end-of-life vehicles (ELVs) are potentially harmful for the environment if they are not processed or recycled in an environmentally friendly manner. In Qatar, the municipality removed almost 13,878 ELVs from different ...
Comparison between multi-stage and single stage microalgae dewatering processes
(
AIChE
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
The present work shows a quick, simple and accurate method for algae harvesting with a potential to relate the required polymer dose with in-situ hydrodynamics properties of alga solution. The method also reduces the lag ...
Assessment of carbon bio-fixation by mixed indigenous microalgae
(
AIChE
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This study assesses the potential use of mixed Indigenous Microalgae (MIMA) for carbon capture from flue gases in a photo-bioreactor. The effect of inlet CO2 concentration on the carbon biofixation rate was investigated. ...
Mobile government adoption: Citizen-centric approach
(
Association for Information Systems
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Despite government attempts to increase citizens' interaction with e-government services provided through governmental websites, to guarantee a high level of involvement by citizens in government services, more governmental ...
Ridge penalization-based generalized linear model (GzLM) for predicting risky-driving index
(
IEOM Society
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Road traffic crashes remain one of the major causes of preventable death and injury worldwide. Human behavior is considered one of the main factors leading to such tragic losses. In this paper, we analyze the responses of ...
