Structural and physical properties of the dust particles in Qatar and their influence on the PV panel performance by Brahim Aïssa (14157243)

“…However, even when these characteristics have been addressed appropriately, there are other factors that adversely affect the performance of PV systems, namely the temperature-induced voltage decrease leading to a PV power loss and the dust accumulation (soiling). …”

Exercise training-induced speeding of VO₂kinetics is not intensity domain-specific or correlated with indices of exercise performance by Erin Calaine Inglis (7042334)

“…There were no PRE to POST differences for CON (p < 0.05) in any variables. Despite significant increases in maximal VO₂ (VO_2max ), estimated lactate threshold (θLT), maximal metabolic steady state (MMSS), and peak power output (PPO) for the intervention groups (p < 0.05), there were no significant correlations from PRE to MID or MID to POST between ΔτVO₂ and Δ V O_2max (r=– 0.221, r = 0.119), ΔPPO (r= – 0.112, r= – 0.017), ΔθLT (r= 0.083, r = 0.142) and ΔMMSS (r= – 0.213, r = 0.049)(p > 0.05).…”

Pore-scale simulation of fine particles migration in porous media using coupled CFD-DEM by Ahmed Elrahmani (17128837)

“…The time required to develop bridging and subsequent clogging of the pore space that lead to permeability reduction decreases as the flow velocity increases. The size of the fine particles has a significant impact on permeability reduction where the reduction in permeability increases as the size of particles increases. …”

The posterior pole and papillomacular fold in posterior microphthalmos by Nowilaty, Sawsan R.

“…Conclusions The PMF in PM eyes has characteristic morphologic SD-OCT features. The increased posterior pole curvature in PM and its significant correlation with the axial length, the PMF severity and keratometry established in this study suggest that PM eyes are not only shorter than normal, but seem to be abnormally shaped posteriorly, particularly along the vertical meridian. …”

Energy-Efficient Cell Association and Load Balancing for Low Battery Users in Heterogeneous Cellular Networks by Abdul Qadeer Khan (22502168)

“…However, the offloading of users through conventional cell association schemes may not guarantee improved load balancing along with the energy efficiency (EE) of critical users such as user equipment (UE) with low battery power. This paper proposes improved cell association schemes based on the battery levels of UE and Deep Q-learning (DQL) to achieve load balancing and to decrease the power consumption of Low Battery Users (LBUs). …”

The Determinants of Cryptocurrency Adoption: An Integrated Framework for the UAE by NICOLAS, SALAM IBRAHIM EL KHOURI

“…Using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) via WarpPLS 8.0, the analysis evaluates the measurement and structural models for reliability, validity, and predictive power. The findings reveal that perceived information asymmetry, technological uncertainty, regulatory ambiguity, and the intangibility of cryptocurrency services significantly influence perceived risk, which in turn affects the adoption intentions. …”
