Solar water heating in Lebanon حسب 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. …"

Aortic valve function post-replacement of severe aortic stenosis by transcatheter procedure versus surgery: a systematic review and metanalysis حسب Charbel Abi Khalil (14150028)

"…TAVR was associated with 37% (95% CI [0.51–0.78) mean RR reduction of post-procedural PPM, a decrease that was not affected by the surgical risk at inclusion, neither by the transcatheter heart valve system. …"

Hydrogen Supplement Co-combustion with Diesel in 2 Compression Ignition Engine حسب Hamdan, Mohammad O.

"…The study reports the engine thermal efficiency, NOx emissions and engine exhaust temperature while varying hydrogen content, engine speed and ignition timing. The results show that thermal efficiency of the compression ignition engine increases as hydrogen content increases in the air-intake manifold for the same diesel mass flow rate. …"
