(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Biometrics is a promising technology for safeguarding the personal identity and digital information of every individual. This paper describes an easy-to-integrate and inexpensive method to improve the security of fingerprint ...
Reliability estimation of load sharing capacity-c-out-of-n pairs:G Balanced system
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In many cases, systems are required to provide a specified capacity such as the case of power distribution system. A system fails when its capacity does not meet the required minimum capacity. In this paper, we investigate ...
Recovery behavior of artificial skin materials after object contact
(
Springer Verlag
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
As social robots and lifelike prosthetics get into closer contact with humans, understanding the mechanical behavior of the embedding skin materials for prosthetic and social robotic fingertips is of great importance. The ...
Investigating the corrosion under insulation (CUI) on steel pipe exposed to Arabian Gulf sea water drops
(
Trans Tech Publications Ltd
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This paper is an endeavor to investigate an insulated mild steel pipe that exposed to three sea water drops rate (10, 30, and 50 drops/minute) at room temperature. Various experimental strategies were employed including ...
Preventive replacement policies with aging failure and third-part damage
(
SciTePress
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In general, corrosions, degrading the mechanical strength of pipelines gradually with its age in a stochastic way, is the predominant cause of pipeline leaks. In addition, the third-part damage is the leading cause of ...
Synthesis and characterization of nickel-cobalt oxide for ethanol decomposition
(
AIChE
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this work we use combustion synthesis method to prepare cobalt catalysts which have been reported to be active for ethanol-hydrogen production. This work focuses primarily on understanding the reaction mechanism leading ...

Cyclic loading effects on soil-energy pile interaction
(
CRC Press/Balkema
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
To reduce greenhouse gas emission from space heating and cooling, energy piles have been used in buildings as an alternative renewable energy source for approximate by two decades. However, the effects of cyclic thermal ...
The role of intermetallic compounds and composite-like structure development during dissimilar friction stir welding of aluminum to brass on metallurgical and flexural characteristics
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this study, the effects of developed Intermetallic Compounds (IMCs) and composite-like structure on metallurgical and flexural characteristics of the Friction Stir Welded (FSWed) joints were scrutinized and explored ...
