A Multidecadal Assessment of Haze Development and Fluctuations in Visibility for Arabian Peninsula
Published 2024“…The main objective of this paper is to analyze the long-term (1975–2023) trends of visibility fluctuations and development of haze for six countries including Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), Iraq (IRQ), Qatar (QTR), Kuwait (KWT), United Arab Emirates (UAE), and Oman (OMN). To comprehend the time-based patterns of visibility across the ME, we utilized the Mann Kendall (MK) and Modified Mann Kendall (MMK) trend estimators in both space and time. …”

A nonlinear PID servo controller for computer hard disk drives
Published 2020“…A nonlinear PID scheme is proposed as an efficient hard disk drive servo controller, reducing the settling time and lowering the required control effort. The controller is capable of increasing (decreasing) damping effect when the system output is moving away from (towards) the desired track. …”
