Ratings of Perceived Exertion Misclassify Intensities for Sedentary Older Adults During Graded Cycling Test: Effect of Supramaximal High-Intensity Interval Training by Georges Jabbour (754884)

“…The intervention elicited physiological changes at rest and submaximal intensities, while no improvements were noted for both groups in aerobic fitness (i.e., V˙O₂peak). For both groups, RPE decreases with SCE at 10 min following graded test correlated significantly to V˙O₂ (r = 0.61, p < 0.01). …”

A CFD- RSM study of cuttings transport in non-Newtonian drilling fluids: Impact of operational parameters by Abdelrahman M. Awad (16932519)

Tailoring the deposition of MoSe₂ on TiO₂ nanorods arrays via radiofrequency magnetron sputtering for enhanced photoelectrochemical water splitting by Yahia H. Ahmad (14340210)

“…Compared to pure TiO₂ NRs, the heterojunction nanostructured assembly displayed excellent spectral and photoelectrochemical properties, including more surface oxygen vacancies, enhanced visible-light absorption, higher photocurrent response, and decreased charge transfer resistance. In particular, the sample synthesized by sputtering of MoSe₂ for 90 s, i.e., MoSe₂@TiO₂-90 s, depicted the highest current density (1.86 mA cm⁻² at 0.5 V vs. …”

Hedonic valuation of land protection methods: implications for cluster development. by Kling, Robert

“…The key findings of the study are: (i) proximity to national or state park land and to city or county open space has a significant positive impact on property values, while proximity to national forest land or to privately conserved land exhibits no significant effects; and, (ii) inclusion of a property within a cluster development decreases its value by 17 to 26 %. These findings are robust to different estimation techniques and model specifications, which suggests important considerations for policymakers who design development rules and alternative land protection measures aimed at preserving open space in non-urban areas.…”

Breaking the barriers towards large-scale microalgae-based bio-hydrogen production by Isra Koko (22631396)

“…Results showed that cultivation dominates the process cost: typical biomass costs are $3.54–$5.78/kg in tubular PBRs versus $3.42–$4.13/kg in ORPs; an automation/modularization case decreased microalgae production cost from $89 to $16/kg at ∼200 t/yr. …”

Crystallization properties of arsenic doped GST alloys by Vinod E. Madhavan (8136774)

“…Optical band gap (E_opt) values of the as-deposited films show a clear increasing trend; 0.6 eV for GST to 0.76 eV for (GST)_0.85As_0.15. The decreases in E_opt for the samples annealed at higher temperatures shows significant optical contrast between the as-deposited and annealed samples. …”

An Investigation into the factors influencing Arabic speaking students’ proficiency in the Arabic language in Dubai British School by AL AHMAD, ALAAEDDIN MEHY

“…Therefore, this study recommends that British schools should have their own policies, curriculum and grading criteria, taking into account both the degree to which the British school students are impacted by language variation and the difference in their linguistic environments. While the precise design of that curriculum and criterion is beyond the scope of this study, it seems likely that a design that takes these important factors that influence the proficiency of Arabic-speaking students into account will be an improvement over any design that does not.…”
