ANN Model for Energy Demand and Supply Forecasting in a Hybrid Energy Supply System
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents short term demand and supply forecasting model for a microgrid supply system used to secure the electricity demands of a commercial building, using one year demand data collected in hourly base. One-year ...
A combined method to model dynamic recrystallization based on cellular automaton and a phenomenological (CAP) approach
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
Titanium alloys with high stacking-fault energy show continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX) instead of discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (DDRX) during high-temperature deformation. During the CDRX mechanism, new ...
Prescriptive analytics for FIFA World Cup lodging capacity planning
(
Palgrave Macmillan Ltd.
, 2017 , Article)
The FIFA World Cup, comprising sixty-four matches spanning an entire month, has, in recent years, been attended by about three million spectators of which over half a million are visitors requiring lodging. Planning lodging ...
Culture as a driver for the design of social robots for Autism spectrum disorder interventions in the Middle East
(
Springer Verlag
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we discuss the prevalence of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in the Gulf region. We examine the importance of providing state-of-the-art ASD interventions, and highlight social robots as therapeutic tools ...
Simulation based particle swarm optimization of cross-training policies in spare parts supply systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
We study a single location supply system for repairable spare parts. The system consists of a multi-server repair shop and inventory with ready-to-use spare parts. When a failed part is received, a new (or as-good-as-new) ...
Magnetorheological damper with external excitation for more efficient control of vehicles? dynamics
(
SAGE Publications Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
This article presents a new concept design for magnetorheological dampers, where the excitation circuit and magnetic field are applied from outside the magnetorheological chamber. This magnetorheological damper was designed ...
Comparison between different measures to reduce cooling requirements of residential building in cooling-dominated environment
(
Elsevier
, 2014 , Article)
In hot climate region like Arabian Peninsula, air conditioning systems are the major energy consumer. Therefore, there are compelling reasons to study the energy requirements in buildings sector to reduce the energy ...
N-cetyl-N,N,N trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB)-stabilized polyaniline: a corrosion inhibitor for mild steel
(
Emerald Publishing
, 2018 , Article)
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to compare the inhibitive effect of polyaniline (PAni) and N-cetyl-N,N,N trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB)-stabilized PAni in a hydrochloric acid (HCl) medium. Design/methodology/approach: ...
Investigating the effect of the air inlet temperature on the combustion characteristics of a spark ignition engine fueled by biogas
(
Wiley-Blackwell
, 2020 , Article)
This work has conducted a numerical study using AVL-Boost engine simulation utilizing biogas (CH4 and CO2)–air mixtures in a SI engine model. The effect of varying the air manifold temperature from 25 to 50°C on the ...
Combined effect of global warming and buildings envelope on the performance of ground source heat pump systems
(
Springer Link
, 2014 , Book chapter)
Heating and cooling systems as well as domestic hot water account for over 50 % of the world’s energy consumption. Due to their high thermal performance, ground source heat pump systems (GSHP) have been increasingly used ...
