Development of Warm Mix Asphalt with the Aid of Microstructural Characterization
(
Qatar Univesrity Press
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
The polymer-modified asphalt (PMA) reveals different types of advantageous properties
depending on the type of polymer. However, one of the unwanted changes in PMA is the
required higher temperature for mixing and compaction. ...
Verification of ACI- 549 Code for Flexural Strengthening of Reinforced Concrete Beams Using FRCM
(
Qatar Univesrity Press
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents an analytical study to verify the ACI 549-4R-16 code for
experimentally tested Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams, which were strengthened to
enhance the flexural capacity using Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious ...
The Expression of TBC1 Domain Family, Member 4 (TBC1D4) in Skeletal Muscles of Insulin-Resistant Mice in Response to Sulforaphane
(
Endocrine Society
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
The Expression of TBC1 Domain Family, member 4 (TBC1D4) in Skeletal Muscles of Insulin-Resistant Mice in Response to Sulforaphane.
Background: Obesity is commonly accompanied by impaired glucose homeostasis. Decreased ...
Enhancement of Naphthalene Biodegradation by Sulfate Application in Brackish Subsurface Systems
(
Qatar Univesrity Press
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Anaerobic biodegradation is the most dominant mechanism in the petroleum hydrocarbon
contaminated subsurface systems. Due to depletion of terminal electron acceptors such
as sulfate, anaerobic degradation of organic ...
Two different carrier phase shifted space vector PWM techniques for pole phase modulation based 9-phase induction motor drive
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
The pole phase-modulated induction motor (PPMIM) drives fulfils all significant requirements of high power traction applications, like extended speed-torque capabilities, higher fault tolerance and high efficiency. In the ...
Accounting for the influence of the free surface on the vibration response of underground railway tunnels: A new iterative method
(
KU Leuven - Departement Werktuigkunde
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a new method for calculating the ground-borne vibration from shallow underground railways. The method is based on an iterative wave-scattering approach, which decouples the problem into two sub-systems: ...
Analysis of the Trajectories of Left-turning Vehicles at Signalized Intersections
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Internationally, an annual number of more than a million fatalities are caused by road traffic crashes, with particularly signalized intersections being crash prone locations within the highway system. An accumulation of ...
ICON 2019 - International Scientific Tendinopathy Symposium Consensus: There are nine core health-related domains for tendinopathy (CORE DOMAINS): Delphi study of healthcare professionals and patients
(
BMJ Publishing Group
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Background The absence of any agreed-upon tendon health-related domains hampers advances in clinical tendinopathy research. This void means that researchers report a very wide range of outcome measures inconsistently. As ...
Efficient Test Collection Construction via Active Learning
(
Association for Computing Machinery
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
To create a new IR test collection at low cost, it is valuable to carefully select which documents merit human relevance judgments. Shared task campaigns such as NIST TREC pool document rankings from many participating ...
Free Chain: Enabling Freedom of Expression through Public Blockchains
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Everyone should have the right to expression and opinion without interference. Nevertheless, Internet censorship is often misused to block freedom of speech. The distributed ledger technology provides a globally shared ...
