The Effect of Daylight on Visual Comfort: The Case of the Dome as a Classical Architectural Element. by Oussadou, Nesrine

“…If the dome is already constructed and needed enhancement its preferable to increase the amount of glazing within the dome since it makes the highest impact compared to other variables, with taking into consideration the values of sDA and ASE by testing them in simulations since increasing the glazing percentage increases the possibility of glare to occur. …”

Optimal design of a new vibration absorber setup for randomly forced systems by Issa, Jimmy

“…It is shown that an optimal mass ratio exists, unlike the case of classical absorbers where performance increases with increasing absorber mass. The optimal parameters associated with the optimal mass ratio are calculated and tabulated for a range of primary system damping ratios. …”

Colon cancer classification using microarray data by Tariq Khan, Saima

“…In treating cancer time is of the essence and early detection can dramatically increase the chances of survival. Imaging techniques, which are the prevalent method of detection and diagnosis, are only useful once the cancerous growth has become visible.However, if techniques that detect cancerous processes at a genetic level are utilized then the cancerous tissues could be identified, and the disease diagnosed much earlier, thus giving a far better prognosis.Therefore, the aim of this thesis is to evaluate the performance of a variety of different classification methods with a particular dataset containing genetic samples of both normal and cancerous biopsies of the colon tissue.A classifier will be recommended which is able to learn the patterns within the microarray data that best determines the classification of the samples.…”

A discrete-time stochastic iterative learning control algorithm for a class of nonlinear systems by Saab, S. S.

“…The author also shows that in presence of measurement noise, the state error covariance matrix converges to zero as the number of learning iterations increases. Finally, a numerical example is given that compares the performance of the proposed algorithm to a conventional ILC algorithm.…”

Design of a vibration absorber for harmonically forced damped systems by Issa, Jimmy

“…The optimal absorber parameters are obtained with the aim of minimizing the maximum of the primary system frequency response. For a given damping ratio of the primary system and mass ratio of the system, the optimal stiffness and damping ratios of the absorber are calculated numerically. …”
