Biocorrosion behavior of biodegradable nanocomposite fibers coated layer-by-layer on AM50 magnesium implant by Abdal-hay, Abdalla

“…The corrosion performance of coated and uncoated coupon samples was investigated by means of electrochemical measurements. The results showed that the AJS 3D membrane fiber layers, particularly the hybrid membrane layers containing a small amount of nHA (3wt.%), induce a higher biocorrosion resistance and effectively decrease the initial degradation rate compared with the neat AM50 coupon samples. …”

Event-triggered fault detection and isolation for discrete-time linear systems by Hajshirmohamadi, Shahram

“…In this study, the problem of event-triggered fault detection and isolation (FDI) for discrete-time linear time invariant systems is considered. Using a Leunberger observer as the residual generator, a multi-objective formulation of the FDI problem is presented based on l1, H- and H? …”

Long-term performance analysis and power prediction of PV technology in the State of Qatar by Touati F.

“…Results show that due to panel dusting for eight months, the PV output power decreased by 50%. Also, owing to lower ambient temperatures, clearer sky and cleaner panels due to occasional rainfall, the PV panels show higher output power in Winter than in Summer season. …”

Swimming exercise improves short- and long-term memories: Time-course changes by Alomari, Mahmoud A.

“…Young adult Wistar rats were tested for both short-term and long-term memories using the radial arm water maize (RAWM) paradigm following 0, 1, 7, 14, and 28 days of swimming exercise training (60 min per day, 5 days/week)s. …”

Event-triggered fault detection for discrete-time linear multi-agent systems by Hajshirmohamadi, S.

“…/H- performance index is guaranteed and it is shown that by using an event-triggered technique, the amount of data that is sent by each agent to its neighboring agents is dramatically decreased. Sufficient conditions for the solvability of the problem are obtained in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) where extended LMI characterizations are used to reduce the conservativeness of the multi-objective H?…”

Investigation Into the Effects of Non-Linear Loading of Domestic Power Network on Home Appliances by Hossain, Ajad

“…These light sources and other house-hold appliances using power electronic converters are termed as non-linear loads and they introduce distortion in the power network by generating harmonics in the current, leading to poor power quality [1 − 4]. …”

Estimation of Mechanical Properties of Copper Powder Filled Linear Low-Density Polyethylene Composites by Singh, S.

“…The input parameters manipulated for the prediction were elongation at break (δ), stress at break (ρ), Young’s modulus (Y), volume fraction of the filler (ϕ) and constants (KE1,KE2,KS1,KS2,KS3,KS4,KY1). Copper powder filled LLDPE has a complex structure which makes it difficult to accurately predict the mechanical properties. …”
