Dosage Optimization of Polypropylene Fiber for Strength Enhancement of Cementitious Composites
(
Qatar Univesrity Press
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
"Concrete is the most commonly used materials for construction in Qatar as well as in
the world. Exposure to sever environmental conditions causes physical deterioration
of concrete structures and significantly affect ...
An IV-SVM-based approach for identification of state-space LPV models under generic noise conditions
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a nonparametric identification method for state-space linear parameter-varying (LPV) models using a modified support vector machine (SVM) approach. While most LPV identification schemes in the state-space ...
An Integrated Quay Crane Assignment and Scheduling Problem Using Branch-and-Price
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
This paper investigates the integrated quay crane assignment and scheduling problem (QCASP). The problem requires determining the assignment of quay cranes to vessels and the scheduling of operations to be performed by ...
Dynamic optimization of LTE pilot scattering based on channel estimation
(
IEEE
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
A dynamic optimization of the pilot scattering for Long Term Evolution (LTE) downlink system is introduced. This optimization is based on channel parameters estimations to optimize the number of pilots used in the transmission ...
Network function virtualization scheduling with transmission delay optimization
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
To accelerate the implementation of network functions/middle boxes and reduce the deployment cost, recently the concept of Network Function Virtualization (NFV) has emerged and became a topic of much interest attracting ...
TDDFT Investigation of the hybrid organic inorganic perovskite: CH 3 NH 3 PbC 3
(
