A chronological exploration of the evolution of housing typologies in Gulf cities
( Springer , 2016 , Article)This paper traces the evolution of housing typologies in four major cities in the Gulf region, namely Doha, Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Manama. The study reviews the formation and historical events in the region, which had a ... -
A New Benchmark Problem for Structural Damage Detection: Bolt Loosening Tests on a Large-Scale Laboratory Structure
( Springer , 2022 , Conference Paper)Monitoring the structural performance of engineering structures has always been pertinent for maintaining structural health and assessing the life cycle of structures. Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) and Structural ... -
A novel electrocoagulation electrode configuration for the removal of total organic carbon from primary treated municipal wastewater
( Springer , 2020 , Article)In this paper, the removal of total organic carbon (TOC) from a primary treated municipal wastewater using a new electrode configuration in electrocoagulation was evaluated. The used electrode configuration induces a ... -
Application of Metastructures for Targeted Low-Frequency Vibration Suppression in Plates
( Springer , 2022 , Article)Purpose We present an approach that combines finite element analysis and genetic algorithms to find the optimal configuration of local resonators created in the host structure to suppress their vibration in a target ... -
Characterization of Cellobiohydrolases from Schizophyllum commune KMJ820
( Springer , 2019 , Article)A novel cellobiohydrolase (CBH)-generating fungi have been isolated and categorized as Schizophyllum commune KMJ820 based on morphology and rDNA gene sequence. Cellulose powder was used as carbon source, the total enzyme ... -
Effects of dissolved organic phase composition and salinity on the engineered sulfate application in a flow-through system
( Springer , 2020 , Article)Engineered sulfate application has been proposed as an effective remedy to enhance the rate-limited biodegradation of petroleum-hydrocarbon-contaminated subsurface environments, but the effects of dissolved organic phase ... -
Enhancement of Naphthalene Degradation by a Sequential Sulfate Injection Scenario in a (Semi)-Arid Coastal Soil: a Flow-Through Reactor Experiment
( Springer , 2020 , Article)Engineered sulfate injection has been introduced as an effective technology to enhance the remediation of soil and groundwater contaminated by petroleum hydrocarbons. While some studies indicate that sulfate injection is ... -
Exploitation of Citrus Peel Extract as a Feedstock for Power Generation in Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC)
( Springer , 2019 , Article)Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are envisioned as an evolving cost-effective process for treating organic wastes to simultaneously generate bioelectricity. Therefore, in present study a single chambered mediator- less air ... -
Geomechanical Modelling of Railroad Ballast: A Review
( Springer , 2019 , Article)Traditional ballasted tracks have been used intensively around the world with ballast as the main material for tracks. Ballast has a significant contribution to the track alignment, stability and sustainability. After ... -

( Springer , 2023 , Other)The publication of this article unfortunately contained a mistake, the Figs. 12b and 14b were missing. Below you can find the complete Figs. 12b and 14b: The original article has been corrected. -
Structural damage detection in real time: Implementation of 1D convolutional neural networks for SHM applications
( Springer , 2017 , Conference Paper)Most of the classical structural damage detection systems involve two processes, feature extraction and feature classification. Usually, the feature extraction process requires large computational effort which prevent the ...
