Locations of Temporary Distribution Facilities for Emergency Response Planning
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Resource planning in emergency response phase is challenging primarily because the resources have to be delivered to the affected regions in a timely manner and in right quantities. Disasters such as the hurricanes, epidemics ...
System approach for building energy conservation
(
Elsevier
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Energy use in residential and commercial buildings and towers represents more than 30% of energy consumption. The increase in number of buildings and towers in most of the major cities worldwide led to several initiatives ...

Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Background and Purpose: Great advances have occurred in the field of robotics in the past few years. The integration of robotics in our daily life became not only limited to manufacturing or industrial usage, but also in ...
Comparison of various functionally graded femoral prostheses by finite element analysis
(
Hindawi
, 2014 , Article)
This study is focused on finite element analysis of a model comprising femur into which a femoral component of a total hip replacement was implanted. The considered prosthesis is fabricated from a functionally graded ...
Effects of Drill Mud and Drive Torque Sinusoidal Excitation on Drillstrings Lateral and Torsional StickSlip Vibrations
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Oil and gas drilling companies spend around 20$ billion annually from which 15% is attributed to material and productive time losses. The most prevalent drilling problems are caused by the Bottom-Hole-Assembly failure which ...
Computational Simulation Of Organic Rankine Cycle Retrofitted To Petroleum Well
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Geothermal refers to existing heat energy in deep rock and sedimentary basins. Unlike other types of renewable energy resources, geothermal energy provides a stable source of energy as it can be exploited regardless of ...
A novel design, analysis and 3D printing of Ti-6Al-4V alloy bio-inspired porous femoral stem
(
Springer
, 2020 , Article)
The current study is proposing a design envelope for porous Ti-6Al-4V alloy femoral stems to survive under fatigue loads. Numerical computational analysis of these stems with a body-centered-cube (BCC) structure is conducted ...
A Multi-echelon Network Distribution Model For Emergency Resource Planning
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Resource planning in emergency management is a challenging task as it involves disaster situations where the demands are rapidly increasing and the resources are scarce. Conventional planning involves a centralized network ...
Advanced Hard Ctings: Towards A Whole New World
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES: Improving materials properties is one of the biggest scientific issues of all the times. When it becomes impossible to further manipulate the raw material, one feasible way to push its properties ...
Bubaline Cholecyst Derived Extracellular Matrix for Reconstruction of Full Thickness Skin Wounds in Rats
(
Hindawi Limited
, 2016 , Article)
An acellular cholecyst derived extracellular matrix (b-CEM) of bubaline origin was prepared using anionic biological detergent. Healing potential of b-CEM was compared with commercially available collagen sheet (b-CS) and ...
