Solar water heating in Lebanon by Houri, Ahmad

“…Simplified initial estimates indicate a payback period of 4–5 years while advanced mathematical models (RETScreen) indicate that the most advanced evacuated tube technology has a payback period of less than 9 years at current market prices. With decreasing cost per square meter of installed collectors, payback periods are expected to rapidly decrease. …”

Successful Use of Intravenous B-blocker Therapy in Cardiogenic Shock Supported With Venoarterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: A Case Series by Alaa Rahhal (14150403)

“…<p dir="ltr">Tachycardia in cardiogenic shock (CS) might reduce the cardiac output (CO) by decreasing the ventricular filling time. Nevertheless, heart rate (HR) control with agents that possess negative inotropy might decrease the CO. …”

An atomistic molecular dynamic model to study the properties of LLDPE and wax by M. F. T. Mosoabisane (17725950)

“…After validation, the application of the model showed that the branch content of modelled LLDPE affected the glass transition temperature when the branch content was 70 per 1000 carbons for models with different branch lengths. …”

Solar hydrogen production via thermochemical magnesium oxide – Magnesium sulfate water splitting cycle by Rahul R. Bhosale (6467102)

Experimental evaluation of multi-agent reinforcement learning in real-world scale-free networks by Al Hashimi, Rashid

“…Tokens also initiate a factor of randomness in the environment given its probability distribution over agents. Preliminary experimental results showed a signi cant reaction to the increase of tokens when agents play battle of the sexes in Neural network; the increase in token transfer probability yields a higher reward and a faster conversion.…”

Minimization of the amplitude of the entire span of beams using mass dampers by Issa, Jimmy S.

“…The considered system consists of a mass damper attached to a simply supported beam with a harmonic force applied at a given point along its span. Traditionally, passive vibration devices such as mass spring dampers or mass dampers were attached to beams and carefully designed to minimize the maximum amplitude at a given point along their span. …”

Optimal IP network dimensioning for stream-type traffic using probabilistic delay constraints by Sharafeddine, Sanaa

“…We introduce a new extension to traditional CA problems by setting a statistical bound on the maximum end-to-end delay experienced by all packets associated with the given latency-sensitive service. For a sample IP network scenario with VoIP traffic, we show that a relatively slight increase in capacity as compared with the classical approach is required to keep the probability of exceeding the maximum end-to-end network delay threshold below 0.1%.…”
