The theta-complete graph Ramsey number r(θk, K5); k = 7, 8, 9
(
Forum-Editrice Universitaria Udinese SRL
, 2021 , Article)
Finding the Ramsey number is an important problem of the well-known
family of the combinatorial problems in Ramsey theory. In this work, we investigate
the Ramsey number r(θs, K5) for s = 7, 8, 9 where θs is the set of ...
Assessment of thermal comfort indices in an open air-conditioned stadium in hot and arid environment
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Thermal comfort indices are vital tools when assessing outdoor thermal comfort in hot and arid environments. Selecting a representative thermal comfort index for outdoor environments is challenging. This paper presents a ...

(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2021 , Article)
Internet of Things (IoT) deployments face significant security challenges due to the limited energy and computational power of IoT devices. These challenges are more serious in the quantum communications era, where certain ...
Thermal Structural Optimization of IC Engine Piston
(
International Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Robotics Research
, 2021 , Article)
The primary purpose of this work is to investigate the effect of the piston crown and piston boss thicknesses on the stresses generated on the piston. A 150-cc piston, made from A4032 Aluminum, of type “Bajaj,” was considered ...
Understanding the buffering effect of social media use on anxiety during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown
(
Springer
, 2021 , Article)
During the COVID-19 outbreak, lockdown measures have been deployed worldwide. In the wake of these measures, internet and social media use has reached unprecedented peaks. We hypothesize that social media can, in the context ...
Artificial intelligence-based classification of diabetic peripheral neuropathy from corneal confocal microscopy images
(
American Diabetes Association Inc.
, 2021 , Other)
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is characterized by pain and sensory loss, affecting approximately 50% of patients. Early identification and risk factor management are key to limiting progression of DPN. In contrast ...
Biomimetic kinetic shading facade inspired by tree morphology for improving occupant’s daylight performance
(
Solarlits
, 2021 , Article)
Many recent studies in the field of the kinetic façade developed the grid-based modular forms through primary kinetic movements which are restricted in the simple shapes. However, learning from biological analogies reveals ...
Isoperimetric properties of condenser capacity
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
For compact subsets E of the unit disk D we study the capacity of the condenser (D,E) by means of set functionals defined in terms of hyperbolic geometry. In particular, we study experimentally the case of a hyperbolic ...
Spatiotemporal analysis of water-electricity consumption in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic across six socioeconomic sectors in Doha City, Qatar
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
This study investigates the water – electricity consumption in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic across six
socioeconomic sectors. Due to inadequate research on spatial modelling of water – electricity consumption in ...
Flare gas-to-power by direct intercooled oxy-combustion supercritical CO2 power cycles
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
With more than 150 billion m3 of gases annually flared around the world, gas flaring is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions that contaminates the environment with more than 400 Mt CO2/year. Therefore, utilizing the ...
