Environmental, Economic, and Social Life Cycle Impacts of Alternative Fuel Buses: The Case for Qatar
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
This paper aimed to evaluate three different types of city buses' life cycle, including the manufacturing, shipping, and operation phases. On this basis, this study is applying both a hybrid life cycle sustainability ...
A Comparative Study on Pandemic Response and Their Impact on Economic Growth: Evidence From COVID-19 Outbreak In Scandanavia
(
IEOM Society
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
Coronavirus strikes again with the delta variant and puts the world in a phase 3 pandemic state. Countries all over the world have adopted different response mechanisms to contain the virus's spread. Health officials call ...
Using Data Analytics and Visualization Dashboard for Engineering, Procurement, and Construction Project's Performance Assessment
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
This study demonstrates the application of design principles for tools in Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) projects for project management purposes. It advocates the use of proper data analytics and ...
Optimized intake manifold designs and their effects on the operation and emissions of a gas-to-liquid diesel engine
(
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Two simultaneous strategies have been used in this work to reduce the diesel engine emissions. First, using novel manifold designs to generate strong turbulence and improve the fuel-air mixing inside the cylinder. The ...
Heat transfer analysis of regenerative thermo-mechanical refrigeration system
(
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Refrigeration systems contribute to the critical environmental concerns including global warming and ozone depletion. It is necessary to develop new systems that use renewable energy resources and waste heat to perform the ...
Modelling wave behaviour of elastic helical waveguides
(
Springer Nature
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Curved and straight waveguides are ubiquitous in engineering structures. For modelling these structures in the mid-frequency and high-frequency range, the knowledge of the wave behaviour can be greatly beneficial. This ...
Areadynamic analysis of GMC sierra pickup truck
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) was used to simulate the flow field over a GMC sierra pickup truck double cab (manufactured year of 2005). This simulation model was compared to a previous simulation and experimental ...
The importance of sensory feedback to enhance embodiment during virtual training of myoelectric prostheses users
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
In this poster, we propose a system that uses immersive Virtual Reality (iVR) and EMG signal processing (muscle activity) to provide a training environment for amputees who are supposed to use a myoelectric prosthesis. We ...
Air expulsion analysis of an industrial air valve using CFD
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamic) analysis is a modern technique to estimate and determine fluid characteristics. CFD uses the Navier-Stokes equation to solve complex fluid behavior along with turbulence models such as k- ...
Anthropomorphism and Its Negative Attitudes, Sociability, Animacy, Agency, and Disturbance Requirements for Social Robots: A Pilot Study
(
springer link
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
A social robot that meets the acceptability requirements of the target end-users presents a significant challenge to robot designers. The design process is often iterative and requires continuous improvements and optimization ...
