Electrochemical behavior of mild and corrosion resistant concrete reinforcing steels
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
An experimental study is carried out in this paper to evaluate the corrosion performance of mild steel reinforcing bars (MS), high strength steel reinforcing bars (HS), epoxy-coated steel reinforcing bars (EC), and ...
Bond performance of tensile lap-spliced basalt-FRP reinforcement in high-strength concrete beams
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
This paper investigates the bond between high-strength concrete (HSC) and tensile lap-spliced basalt fiber-reinforced polymer (BFRP) bars. Ten large-scale BFRP-reinforced concrete beams (300 x 450 x 3900 mm) were fabricated ...
Durability characteristics of high and ultra-high performance concretes
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Durability characteristics of high-performance concrete (HPC) and ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) are evaluated in comparison to normal strength concrete (NSC). HPC and UHPC are cast using commonly available materials ...

(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Marketable value of algal biomass has been increasing in recent years due to its wide range of applications. This study investigates the performance of a novel cylindrical interdigitated electrode array in electrocoagulation ...
Engineering instructors' professional agency development and identity renegotiation through engaging in pedagogical change towards PBL
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2021 , Article)
This qualitative longitudinal study explored three engineering instructors' professional agency in implementing project-based learning (PBL), including multiple sets of data (18 interviews, observations, and written ...
Queue Discharge at Freeway On-Ramps Using Coordinated Operation of a Ramp Meter and an Upstream Traffic Signal
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Ramp metering is an effective way of maintaining optimum traffic conditions and mitigating congestion on freeways. Several strategies for ramp metering exist in the literature. They are typically based on the freeway traffic ...
Deep learning techniques for liver and liver tumor segmentation: A review
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Liver and liver tumor segmentation from 3D volumetric images has been an active research area in the medical image processing domain for the last few decades. The existence of other organs such as the heart, spleen, stomach, ...
PCovNet: A presymptomatic COVID-19 detection framework using deep learning model using wearables data
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
While the advanced diagnostic tools and healthcare management protocols have been struggling to contain the COVID-19 pandemic, the spread of the contagious viral pathogen before the symptom onset acted as the Achilles' ...
Novel and robust machine learning approach for estimating the fouling factor in heat exchangers
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
The fouling factor (Rf) is an operating index for measuring an undesirable effect of solids’ deposition on
the heat transfer ability of heat exchangers. Accurate prediction of the fouling factor helps appropriate
scheduling ...
A Lightweight Deep Learning Based Microwave Brain Image Network Model for Brain Tumor Classification Using Reconstructed Microwave Brain (RMB) Images
(
MDPI
, 2023 , Article)
Computerized brain tumor classification from the reconstructed microwave brain (RMB) images is important for the examination and observation of the development of brain disease. In this paper, an eight-layered lightweight ...
