Fixing the Kingdom: Political Evolution and Socio-Economic Challenges in Bahrain
(
Georgetown University School of Foreign Service in Qatar
, 2008 , Article)
Bahrain has entered into a more ‘progressive’ phase of its history under King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa. Various parliamentary and legislative restructuring, in addition to discernable changes within civil society, have ...
A Magnetic Transport Middle Eastern Positron Beam
(
Elsevier
, 2008 , Article)
A magnetically guided slow positron beam is being constructed at Qatar University and is currently being optimised for regular operation. This is the first positron beam in the Middle East, as well as being the first Arabic ...
Cost optimization of composite beams using genetic algorithms
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2009 , Article)
This paper presents a genetic algorithm model for the cost optimization of composite beams based on the load and resistance factor design (LRFD) specifications of the AISC. The model formulation includes the cost of concrete, ...
New tellurite glass: Optical properties
(
Elsevier
, 2008 , Article)
The refractive index and UV spectra of the quaternary tellurite glass system of the form 80TeO2-5TiO2-(15 - x) WO3-xAnOm where AnOm is Nb2O5, Nd2O3 and Er2O3, x = 0.01, 1, 3 and 5 mol% for Nb2O5 and x = 0.01, 0.1, 1, 3, 5 ...
Homotopy analysis method for fractional IVPs
(
Elsevier
, 2007 , Article)
In this paper, the homotopy analysis method is applied to solve linear and nonlinear fractional initial-value problems (fIVPs). The fractional derivatives are described by Caputo’s sense. Exact and/or approximate analytical ...
On the numerical simulation of population dynamics with density-dependent migrations and the Allee effects
(
IOP Publishing
, 2008 , Article)
In this paper, the variational iteration method (VIM) and the Adomian decomposition method (ADM) are presented for the numerical simulation of the population dynamics model with density-dependent migrations and the Allee ...
A predictive strategy for lifetime maximization in selective relay networks
(
IEEE
, 2009 , Conference Paper)
Two algorithms based on an energy conserving dynamic transmit power threshold are proposed for improving the lifetime in relay networks utilizing selective relay strategies with amplify-and-forward (AF) relays. the lifetime ...
The modified homotopy perturbation method for solving strongly nonlinear oscillators
(
Elsevier
, 2009 , Article)
In this paper we propose a reliable algorithm for the solution of nonlinear oscillators. Our algorithm is based upon the homotopy perturbation method (HPM), Laplace transforms, and Padé approximants. This modified homotopy ...
A new approach of clustering based machine-learning algorithm
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2005 , Article)
Machine-learning research is to study and apply the computer modeling of learning processes in their multiple manifestations, which facilitate the development of intelligent system. In this paper, we have introduced a ...
Numerical comparison of methods for solving a special fourth-order boundary value problem
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2007 , Article)
In this paper, we implement relatively new analytical techniques, the differential transform method, Adomian decomposition, and homotopy perturbation method, for solving a fourth-order boundary value problem. In these ...
