Consideration of a Pedestrian Speed Change Model in the Pedestrian-Vehicle Safety Assessment of Signalized Crosswalks
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Pedestrian safety is one of the most challenging issues in the road network. Understanding the pedestrian maneuver is the key to applying countermeasures against traffic crashes. It is known that behaviors of pedestrians ...
Sulfide Scaling and Corrosion of Carbon Steel in a Sour Medium
(
The Electrochemical Society
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The damage caused by the building up of scale inside wellbores and pipelines costs millions of pounds each year. A better understanding of scale formation and the kinetic nature of the process is essential, for asset ...
Pedestrians' Crossing Behavior at Marked Crosswalks on Channelized Right-Turn Lanes at Intersections
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Unsignalized marked crosswalks are problematic locations from pedestrians' safety perspective. Although the priority rule at such locations is clear; pedestrians have the absolute right of way over vehicles, driver often ...
Effect of gamma irradiation on the microstructure and morphology of polyethylene oxide and polyvinyl alcohol blends
(
Trans Tech Publications
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
Thin films of a blend of 90, 75, 50 (wt/wt%) percentage of polyethylene oxide and polyvinyl alcohol were synthesized and irradiated with 5, 25, 50, 100 and 200 kGy. The presence of PVA leads to diffusion controlled mechanism ...
Evaluation of combined genome assemblies: A case study with fungal genomes
(
Springer
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
The rapid advances in genome sequencing leads to the generation of huge amount of data in a single sequencing experiment. Several genome assemblers with different objectives were developed to process these genomic data. ...
Relationship between Chauffeurs' Demographics, and Knowledge of Traffic Signs in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Authorities in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) are investing heavily on developing Intelligent Transport Systems, which includes installations of Variable Message Signs (VMS) for the road users. However, it is challenging ...
Intelligent Fuzzy Classifier for pre-seizure detection from real epileptic data
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, a classification method is presented using an Fuzzy Inference Engine to detect the incidences of pre-seizures in real/raw Epilepsy data. The system distinguishes between 'Normal', 'Pre-Seizure' and 'Seizure' ...
Can immersive type of Virtual Reality bring EMG pattern changes post facial palsy?
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
The loss of facial expression via facial paralysis is a devastating condition, both functionally and aesthetically. However, given the life-long plasticity of the brain one could assume that recovery could be facilitated ...
Towards commercialization of self-healing technology in epoxy coatings
(
National Assoc. of Corrosion Engineers International
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This work is focused on developing viable self-healing coatings especially considering the viability of the coating in a commercial context. With this in mind, finding low cost healing agents, with satisfactory healing and ...
Understanding the Scales Formation Inhibition Mechanism on C-Steel in a Sour Media
(
The Electrochemical Society
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Corrosion control in sour environments is a severe challenge for the oil and gas industries with respect to sour media. One of the approaches to mitigate such a problem is to use corrosion inhibitors (CI). The selection ...
