Stability of membrane fouling particles under perikinetic and orthokinetic flow conditions
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2004 , Article)
Stability of fouling particles against Brownian motion (perikinetic) and simple shear flow (orthokinetic) was investigated. The effect of the various parameters such as particle radius, Hamaker constant, salt (1-1 type) ...
Performance Evaluation of Network-Parallel Data Storage
(
IEEE
, 2006 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a unique storage architecture that utilizes the multiplicity of storage nodes in LAN and WAN network environments to achieve high reliability, high-performance, scalability, and cost effectiveness. The ...
Assessing Quality of Web Based Systems
(
IEEE
, 2008 , Conference Paper)
This paper proposes an assessment model for Web-based systems in terms of non-functional properties of the system. The proposed model consists of two stages: (i) deriving quality metrics using goal-question-metric (GQM) ...
Toward An Intelligent Informative System to Determine Locations Paths in Doha City
(
IEEE
, 2008 , Conference Paper)
Tourists and new comers arriving to Doha city, the capital of Qatar, need always to know about specific locations (i.e., tourist sites, hotels, schools, universities, shopping centers, hospitals, health centres, mosques, ...
New Heuristic Strategies for Reactive Power Compensation of Radial Distribution Feeders
(
IEEE
, 2002 , Article)
In this paper, the authors introduce two new heuristic techniques for reactive power compensation in radial distribution feeders. The methods can be considered as generalization ideas that emerged from recent heuristic ...
Photodegradation of methylene blue dye by the UV/H2O2 and UV/acetone oxidation processes
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2005 , Article)
The photodegradation of methylene blue (MB) dye in aqueous solutions was investigated using a laboratory-scale UV lamp in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Different initial concentrations of dyes (10, 20, 30, 40 ...
Defect Deconvolution using 4th Order Statistics for Ultrasonic Nondestructive Testing
(
IEEE
, 2007 , Conference Paper)
Classification of defects using ultrasonic nondestructive testing (NDT) is primarily done in the field of industrial materials to provide useful information in order to assist in making administrative decisions in terms ...
Tutorials-Based System to Assist Qatari Children with Special Needs
(
IEEE
, 2008 , Article)
The objective of this project is to develop an Arabic predictive communication system for physically disabled people with speech and language impairments who are resident at the Shafalah Qatari center for children with ...
On hybrid-fuzzy classifier design: An empirical modeling scenario for corrosion detection in gas pipelines
(
IEEE
, 2008 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, a customized Fuzzy Inference System is presented to classify the corrosion and distinguish it from the geometric defects or normal state of the steel pipes used in gas/petroleum industry. The presented ...
Distributed turbo coding using log-likelihood thresholding for cooperative communications
(
IEEE
, 2009 , Article)
In cooperative communications, error propagation at relays reduces the diversity order of the system. To combat that effect, we present a novel technique to control error propagation at the relays, which is presented in ...
