Solar water heating in Lebanon by Houri, Ahmad

“…Simplified initial estimates indicate a payback period of 4–5 years while advanced mathematical models (RETScreen) indicate that the most advanced evacuated tube technology has a payback period of less than 9 years at current market prices. With decreasing cost per square meter of installed collectors, payback periods are expected to rapidly decrease. …”

A Quadratic Non-Isolated High Step-Up Single-Input Dual-Output DC–DC Topology Based on Coupled Inductors with Low Input Current Ripple by Vafa Marzang (17347048)

“…The proposed converter produces high DC output voltages at a low value of duty cycles and low voltage stress across the power MOSFETs. The CIs’ turn ratios give another freedom factor to increase the output voltages and decrease the switches’ stress. …”

Review on computational modeling for the property, process, product and performance (PPPP) characteristics of additively manufactured porous magnesium implants by Ramsha Imran (12431698)

“…<p>Recently, magnesium (Mg) and its alloys are gaining the attention of researchers as these materials can provide mechanical properties comparable to natural bone. Additive manufacturing (AM) techniques have also evolved in the biomedical sector owing to their precision in fabricating desired parts with varying shapes, intricacy, and porosity required for implant functionality. …”

Modeling circadian clock–cell cycle interaction effects on cell population growth rates by El Khatib, N.

“…Particularly, we show that Cry 1, Cry 2 mutations decrease the growth rate of cells, Per 2 mutation enhances it and Bmal 1 knockout increases it for autonomous periods of the cell cycle less than 21 h and decreases it elsewhere. …”
