Numerical simulation of thermal buoyant wall jets
(2013 , Conference Paper)
The main focus of this study is on the near field flow and mixing characteristics of the thermal
wall jets. A numerical study of the buoyant wall jets discharged from submerged outfalls from cooling
systems of power ...
An accurate finite volume method using fourth order Adams scheme on triangular grids for the Saint-Venant System
(2013 , Conference Paper)
In this study, a new finite volume method is developed for shallow water equations on a rotating
frame. Most upwind methods, which perform well for gravity waves, lead to large oscillations and/or
numerical damping for ...
Corrosion Behavior of Electrodeposited Ni-B Coatings Modified with SiO2 Particles
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Other)
The need for coatings with improved operation is vital to insure safety and high output of industrial plants. Electrodeposition is a valuable surface modification technology that can be used to develop various kinds of ...
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 ...

(
Athabasca University Press
, 2013 , Article)
As the world becomes more digitized, there will be an increasing need to make available learning resources in electronic format for access by information and communication technologies. The question education will face is ...
Cultural meanings embedded in the facade of Italian migrants' houses in brisbane, Australia
(
Archnet-IJAR
, 2017 , Article)
In the Post-WWII period, while industrial production in Italy had diminished and millions of people were unemployed, Australia was facing the opposite problem of shortage of labour, due to a rapid agricultural and industrial ...
Cultural traditions and architectural form of Italian transnational houses in Australia
(
ArchNet
, 2015 , Article)
The purpose of this article is to investigate the connection between cultural traditions and house form which, according to scholars, is in danger of being lost, and so contribute to the revival of critical interest in ...
Disruption factor of asphalt mixtures
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2012 , Article)
Typically, aggregate gradation is selected to meet Superpave mix design specification; however, many Superpave mixtures have exhibited deficient field performance. The porosity of the dominant aggregate size range (DASR), ...
State of the Art Study on Aging of Asphalt Mixtures and Use of Antioxidant Additives
(
Hindawi
, 2018 , Article)
The detrimental effects of hardening in asphalt pavements were first recognized by pioneering pavement engineers in the 1900s and have been studied extensively during the last 70 years. This hardening process, referred to ...
Potential of geothermal energy for electricity generation in Qatar
(
Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
There is general acceptance that climate change, which is the most important challenge facing humanity, is anthropogenic and attributed to fossil fuel consumption. Therefore, improving the performance of our existing energy ...
