TORT3D: A MATLAB code to compute geometric tortuosity from 3D images of unconsolidated porous media
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
Tortuosity is a parameter that plays a significant role in the characterization of complex porous media systems and it has a significant impact on many engineering and environmental processes and applications. Flow in ...
Evaluation of Transit Signal Priority Implementation for Bus Transit along a Major Arterial Using Microsimulation
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Transit Signal Priority (TSP) provides preferential treatment for public transit vehicles at signalized intersections when implemented. TSP is usually provided by interrupting the typical signal timings and extending the ...
Investigation of Weather Impacts on Pedestrian Volumes
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This study investigates the impacts of temporal and weather characteristics on pedestrian volumes in a hot climate condition. A major neighborhood located in an urban area in Doha, Qatar was chosen as a case study site. ...
Optimizing multi-objective dynamic facility location decisions within green distribution network design
(
Elsevier
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Despite the surge of sustainable economic development which inspires corporations to optimize investment on environmental-friendly infrastructural facilities, limited pragmatic evidences are observed in product-service ...
Facility location decisions within integrated forward/reverse logistics under uncertainty
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, a stochastic mixed integer linear programming (SMILP) model is proposed to optimize the location and size of facilities and service centres in integrated forward and reverse streams under uncertainty. The ...
Simulation-Based Parametric Study for the Hybrid Superplastic Forming of AZ31
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
As the lightest constructional metal on earth, magnesium alloys offer excellent potential for weight reduction in the transportation industry and it was observed that some magnesium alloys exhibit superior ductility and ...
Elastic properties of chiral, anti-chiral, and hierarchical honeycombs: A simple energy-based approach
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
The effects of two geometric refinement strategies widespread in natural structures, chirality and self-similar hierarchy, on the in-plane elastic response of two-dimensional honeycombs were studied systematically. Simple ...
A novel hybrid cybersecurity scheme against false data injection attacks in automated power systems
(
Springer
, 2023 , Article)
The conventional power systems are evolving as smart grids. In recent times cyberattacks on smart grids have been increasing. Among different attacks, False Data Injection (FDI) is considered as an emerging threat that has ...
Mechanical and Fatigue Behavior of Cellular Structure Ti-6Al-4V Alloy Femoral Stems: A Finite Element Analysis
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Repetitive loads acting on the hip joint fluctuate according to the type of activities produced by the human body. Repetitive loading is one of the factors that leads to fatigue failure of the implanted stems. The objective ...
Qatar national MUSEUM-Transit oriented development: The masterplan for the urban regeneration of a 'green TOD'
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Over the past two decades, a growing number of communities have pursued light rail transit (LRT) and Transit-Oriented Developments (TODs) as part of an integrated transportation and land use strategy to revitalize and/or ...
