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 %. …”

Synthesis and analysis of silver–copper alloy nanoparticles of different ratios manifest anticancer activity in breast cancer cells by Sara Al Tamimi (9692615)

“…Furthermore, we observed the cell death pathway by the apoptosis marker Annexin-V which showed non-significant results, while the exposure of AgCu-NP in MCF-7 cells leads to toxicity and also caused significant increase in MMP-9 level, which suggests the cell death may be associated with other pathways such as autophagy and oxidative stress related.…”

Teachers’ views on causes leading to their burnout by Nabhani, Mona

Ultrasound-Induced Calcein Release From eLiposomes by Lattin, James R.

“…Self-quenched calcein was also encapsulated inside the vesicles. A fluorometer was used to measure baseline fluorescence, calcein release after ultrasound exposure, and total release from the vesicles. eLiposome samples released 3 to 5 times more of the encapsulated calcein than did controls when exposed to 20-kHz ultrasound. …”
