Condition prediction models for oil and gas pipelines using regression analysis
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2014 , Article)
Although they are the safest means of transporting oil and gas products, pipelines can sometimes fail with hazardous consequences and large business losses. The decision to replace, repair, or rehabilitate depends mainly ...
Performance enhancement of cognitive relay networks using regression functions
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In a spectrum sharing relay-aided secondary network, the design objective shifts from minimizing the violation of the primary system constraints when using the outdated channel state information (CSI), to making the best ...
Technology integration in EFL classrooms: A study of Qatari independent schools
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2017 , Article)
The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of teachers' individual characteristics and perceptions of environmental factors on the extent of technology integration into EFL (English as a Foreign Language) classrooms. ...
Locating leaks in water mains using noise loggers
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2016 , Article)
Because of their potential danger to public health, economic loss, environmental damage, and energy waste, underground water pipelines leaks have received more attention globally. Researchers have proposed active leakage ...
Effect of aggregate, mandatory and voluntary disclosure on firm performance in a developing market: The case of Kuwait
(
Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.
, 2019 , Article)
This paper examines the relationship between corporate disclosure and firm performance for the case of listed companies in the Kuwait Stock Exchanges (KSE). Our sample contains 51 non-financial firms that represent 42% of ...
Short-term probabilistic building load forecasting based on feature integrated artificial intelligent approach
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2022 , Article)
Due to various influential factors that lead to instability and volatility of the building load, short-term building load forecasting is a gruelling task. This paper proposes a hybrid short-term building load probability ...
Derivative-driven window-based regression method for gas turbine performance prognostics
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
The domination of gas turbines in the energy arena is facing many challenges from environmental regulations and the plethora of renewable energy sources. The gas turbine has to operate under demand-driven modes and its ...
Forecasting the health of gas turbine components through an integrated performance-based approach
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this study, we present an integrated method for detecting and forecasting the health of gas turbine components as degraded over time. An advanced model-based real time performance adaptation approach is developed for ...
Efficient phase estimation for the classification of digitally phase modulated signals using the cross-WVD: A performance evaluation and comparison with the S-transform
(2012 , Article)
This article presents a novel algorithm based on the cross-Wigner-Ville Distribution (XWVD) for optimum phase estimation within the class of phase shift keying signals. The proposed method is a special case of the genera ...
Simplified compression field theory-based model for shear strength of fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix-strengthened reinforced concrete beams
(
American Concrete Institute
, 2020 , Article)
Fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) systems are becoming an excellent choice for the shear strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams owing to their excellent structural performance and compatibility with the ...
