Simulation Study of Thermal Effects of Vegetation Covered Sand dune mounds within the Landscape around Urban Structures in the UAE by Al-Yaqoob, Dana

“…The results of the research showed that application of trees in a natural and diverse arrangement while still having a mix of different vegetation types around the urban areas is the most effective strategy in tackling excess heat in urban areas. Also, increase in edge compactness and shape complexity of vegetation can decrease surface temperatures and progress the exchanges between vegetation and built-up areas. …”

Global age-sex-specific fertility, mortality, healthy life expectancy (HALE), and population estimates in 204 countries and territories, 1950–2019: a comprehensive demographic anal... by Haidong, Wang

“…We classified location-years into seven categories on the basis of the natural rate of increase in population (calculated by subtracting the crude death rate from the crude birth rate) and the net migration rate. We computed healthy life expectancy (HALE) using years lived with disability (YLDs) per capita, life tables, and standard demographic methods. …”

Stability and thermophysical properties test of carbide-derived carbon thermal fluid; a comparison between functionalized and emulsified suspensions by Ismail W. Almanassra (14151321)

“…Increasing the CDC loading was found to increase the viscosity and decrease the specific heat of the suspensions. Finally, correlation equations proposed for predicting the thermal conductivity and dynamic viscosity of the CDC-water suspension had R2 values of 0.90 and 0.81, respectively.…”

DNAJB3 attenuates metabolic stress and promotes glucose uptake by eliciting Glut4 translocation by Abdelilah Arredouani (10914455)

“…<p>Failure of the heat shock response is a key event that leads to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. …”

Solar hydrogen production via thermochemical magnesium oxide – Magnesium sulfate water splitting cycle by Rahul R. Bhosale (6467102)

“…Overall analysis confirms that although the rise in the molar flow rate of Ar from 1 to 50 mol/s results in a decrease in the thermal reduction temperature from 1490 K to 1282 K, the solar-to-fuel energy conversion efficiency is adversely affected and reduces from 47.7% to 18.1%. …”

Graphite and metal nitrate-infused HDPE composites for enhanced thermal performance in energy-efficient building envelopes by Mohammad Amir Khan (23770803)

“…<p dir="ltr">The growing market of efficient thermal management materials in architectural and energy systems has led to the creation of polymer composite materials with better heat dissipation properties. In this work, the high-density polyethylene (HDPE) composites loaded with graphite and different metal (Cu, Mg, Bi, Fe, Sr, Na) nitrate doped carbon quantum dots (CQDs) are presented. …”

Circular economy application for a Green Stadium construction towards sustainable FIFA world cup Qatar 2022™ by Abathar Al-Hamrani (16494884)

“…Therefore, sustainable construction became a hot topic, which strives to reduce material consumption, limit constructional waste disposal, and decrease contribution to climate change. In line with Qatar's commitment to organizing a sustainable FIFA World Cup in 2022, this study aims to conduct an environmental life cycle assessment (LCA) for the construction of the Education City Stadium. …”

A genetically encoded BRET-based SARS-CoV-2 Mpro protease activity sensor by Anupriya M. Geethakumari (17052375)

“…Co-expression of the sensors with M^pro in live cells resulted in their cleavage while mutation of the critical C145 residue (C145A) in M^pro completely abrogated their cleavage. …”

Rebound effects undermine carbon footprint reduction potential of autonomous electric vehicles by Nuri C. Onat (14779093)

“…In this study, we investigate tradeoffs between improved fuel economy and rebound effects from a life-cycle perspective. Our results show that autonomy introduces an average 21.2% decrease in operation phase emissions due to improved fuel economy while manufacturing phase emissions can surge up to 40%. …”
