Modelling the adoption of agro-advisory mobile applications: a theoretical extension and analysis using result demonstrability, trust, self-efficacy and mobile usage proficiency
( Emerald Publishing , 2023 , Article)Purpose: This paper aims to explore the determinants of intention towards the use of agro-advisory mobile applications by extending the technology acceptance model (TAM) with addition of the following constructs: result ... -
Modelling the asymmetric responses of price level to oil price changes in Qatar
( Routledge , 2019 , Article)This paper inspects the asymmetric effect of oil price on prices level in Qatar. To achieve that, we proceed by employing a nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) approach on data during the period 1990Q1-2014Q4. ... -
Modelling the degradation of vibration characteristics of reinforced concrete beams due to flexural damage
( John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. , 2015 , Article)This paper presents an improved crack model incorporating non-linearity of flexural damage in concrete to reproduce changes in vibration properties of cracked reinforced concrete beams. A reinforced concrete beam model ... -
Modelling the dynamic pile-soil-pile interaction in a multi-layered half-space
( DC/ConfOrg , 2015 , Conference Paper)Within the context of railway ground-borne vibration, the dynamic pile-soil-pile interaction remains an area that has not been sufficiently investigated. Whilst a number of researchers have scrutinised the vibration response ... -
Modelling the Severity of Plastic Shrinkage in Cementitious Materials
( Qatar Univesrity Press , 2020 , Conference Paper)"Plastic shrinkage cracking in cement-based materials occurs between the mixing and the final setting of the mixture, where rapid evaporation of the mixed water is the main cause behind the phenomenon. The induced cracks ... -
