Roadmap toward energy-positive upfront nitrogen removal process in baseload LNG plant حسب Mkacher, Hajer

"…The use of liquefied natural gas (LNG) has grown over the last decade owing to an increase in the global energy demand. This work presents a pioneering approach for rigorous simulation of an actual cold section of an LNG plant and provides a potential process optimization to achieve a higher production rate (PR) while reducing the specific power consumption (SPC). …"

Impact of time synchronization error on the mode-shape identification and damage detection/localization in WSNs for structural health monitoring حسب Abdaoui, Abderrazak

"…In this paper, we characterize the impact of TSE on the modal analysis, damage detection and damage localization using frequency domain decomposition (FDD) implemented in a semi-local manner. In order to decrease the size of the transmitted data by the sensor nodes and reduce the processing load and the needed storage capacity on the central unit, we adopt a semi-local processing approach where each sensor node partially processed data and transmit it to a central unit for further processing such as mode shape identification, damage detection and damage localization. …"

Recycled Polypropylene Fibres for Reinforcing Cement Mortar under Arid Conditions حسب Bendjillali, Khadra

"…It is also shown that under arid conditions, the presence of 1% of recycled polypropylene fibres in cement mortar leads to a considerable decrease in total shrinkage of about 46% and an increase in the flexural and compressive strength of about 24% and 26%, respectively, compared to control mortar (CM) at the age of 194 days. …"

The Formation of Sulfide Scales on Carbon Steel in Saturated H2S حسب Al-Qahtani, Noora

"…The electrochemical reaction commonly contains three stages: first, the reactant transported from the solution (bulk) to the metal surface; then the transfer of the charge reaction on the surface, followed by the reaction product transported away from the iron surface to the bulk solution or the formation and development of the corrosion product which then can decrease the corrosion rate. Development of a robust corrosion model to predict the corrosion process in H2S these requires a mechanistic understanding of all these elements. …"
