3D printing of circular materials: Comparative environmental analysis of materials and construction techniques by Shoukat Alim Khan (14778226)

“…The main environmental "hot spot" identified for the geopolymer-based 3D printed construction process was the amount of electrical energy required for the mechanical processing of waste materials, which was more than 61% of the total GWP impact. In addition to decreasing solid CDW, the developed approach has significant potential for improvement by using more sustainable energy sources and reducing the amount of solid CDW generated.…”

Enhancing Thermal Comfort for the Revitalization of Pedestrian-Friendly Shopping Arcades in Dubai, UAE by RAJEEV, ANN MARIA

“…Using ENVI-met software, simulations are conducted in three stages: urban materials, building facade materials, and vegetation and landscaping, encompassing thirteen different combinations to examine four key aspects: temperature, humidity, wind speed, and PMV value, which significantly affect outdoor thermal comfort. The most favorable cases are selected from each phase, and the final reduction in temperature and PMV values of the optimized case indicates a substantial decrease of 3.76 degrees Celsius in air temperature post-implementation of passive design strategies. …”

Carbon Nanotube Effect on the Ductility, Flexural Strength, and Permeability of Concrete by Mohamed O. Mohsen (14590765)

“…The permeability coefficient (kT) decreased by at least 45% when CNTs were added to concrete. …”

Anti-angiogenic effect of nano-formulated water soluble kaempferol and combretastatin in an in vivo chick chorioallantoic membrane model and HUVEC cells by Gowtham Kumar Subbaraj (17807615)

“…In addition, the mRNA expression levels of VEGF-A and FGF2 were significantly decreased compared with native forms. Therefore, the findings of this study indicate that nano-formulated water-soluble combretastatin and kaempferol suppress angiogenesis by preventing the activation of endothelial cells and suppressing factors of angiogenesis. …”

Urban Geometry: The Effect of Height Diversity and Buildings Configuration on Thermal Performance and Cooling Load at Urban Scale. A Case Study in Dubai / UAE by SHAREEF, SUNDUS LUAY

“…The research found that a significant variation in building height reduces the cooling load more than a gradual height variation, and consequently offers more energy saving. …”

Effect of Surface Treatment of Halloysite Nanotubes (HNTs) on the Kinetics of Epoxy Resin Cure with Amines by Vahideh Akbari (18768001)

“…At high heating rates, a similar behavior but not that significant was observed due to the accelerated gelation in the system. …”

Combined effects of treated domestic wastewater, fly ash, and calcium nitrite toward concrete sustainability by Abdelrahman Abushanab (17268940)

“…It was also shown that the addition of FA significantly decreased the chloride permeability of TWW concrete by 55%–71%. …”

Competition vs cooperation: An agent based model for sustainable tomatoes’ import system by Sarah Namany (17268922)

“…Based on the research findings, a competitive global market can bring economic benefits to Qatar as an importing nation, but this approach also entails substantial <u>water consumption</u> and results in significant environmental emissions. Conversely, collaboration among exporting countries demonstrates a potential 20% reduction in water usage and a 15% decrease in environmental emissions compared to the competitive scenario, offering enhanced environmental performance albeit at<u> higher economic costs</u>. …”

Effect of Mg incorporation on the properties of PCL/Mg composites for potential tissue engineering applications by Sumama Nuthana Kalva (19206064)

“…However, the elastic modulus decreased by around 50% for the same composition. The thermal study revealed a significant reduction in the degradation temperature from above 400°C for pure PCL to around 300°C for PCL/Mg composite having 15% Mg. …”

Phosphorus supplement alters postprandial lipemia of healthy male subjects by Bassil, Maya

“…In the phosphorus (P) supplemented group, postprandial serum P increased (p = 0.00), while changes in insulin, non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) and triglyceride (TG) were not significantly different than that of placebo. Concurrently, phosphorus supplementation increased postprandial concentrations of apolipoprotein B48 (ApoB48) (p < 0.05) and decreased that of apolipoprotein B100 (ApoB100) (p < 0.05). …”
