Assessment of solar electricity production in the United Arab Emirates by Poullikkas, Andreas

“…From the analysis it is evident that an alternative cost-effective technology to the installation of a 50 MWp PV system might be the utilisation of a 50 MWe parabolic trough CSP system with either a 14.5 h thermal storage system or a 24/7 operation. …”

The cost of integration of parabolic trough CSP plants in isolated Mediterranean power systems by Poullikkas, Andreas

“…In addition, a sensitivity analysis on natural gas price, showed that increasing fuel prices and the existence of thermal storage capability in the CSP plant make this scenario marginally more economically attractive compared to the BAU scenario.…”

Lactic acid mediates the effects of physical exercise on learning and memory through SIRT1-dependent activation of hippocampal BDNF. (c2018) by Hayek, Lauretta El

“…The action of lactate is dependent on the activation of the Sirtuin1 deacetylase. SIRT1 increases the levels of the transcriptional coactivator PGC1a and the secreted molecule FNDC5, previously shown to mediate Bdnf expression. …”

How FIFA World Cup 2022™ can meet the carbon neutral commitments and the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development?: Reflections from the tree nursery project in Qatar... by Ioannis Spanos (2086933)

“…The i-Tree assessment tool and a well-established US database are used in this regard to undertake a correlation climatic condition analysis between Doha and five locations in the United States with similar demographics as the State of Qatar. …”

On the relationship between the electric double layer and actuation in ionomeric polymer transducers by Akle, Barbar J.

“…Ionic polymer transducers are soft actuators that perform large bending deflections when voltages on the order of 1–5 V are applied across their thickness. Previous work showed that actuation performance of ionic polymer transducers is strongly correlated with the capacitance due to surface charge accumulation. …”

Enhancement of polysulfone ultrafiltration membrane with third generation poly(amido amine)-graphene oxide nanocomposite by Ahmed T. Yasir (16518552)

“…The abundance of -OH and -NH2 groups on the synthesized nanocomposites resulted in improved hydrophilicity of the membrane and aided improving the membrane porosity and increased its pore radius. As a result, the membrane pure water permeation flux increased by 1300 % for the new membrane compared to pristine PSF membrane to reach a maximum of 124.5 LMH/bar while maintaining a high BSA rejection rate of 99 % with a flux recovery rate of 55 %. …”
