A convolution neural network (CNN) uses kernels to filter applied images. These kernels learn their coefficients' values during the training process, thus they do not possess any centrosymmetry. Hence, the phase responses for these kernels are neither zero-phase nor linear-phase. This technique adds a group delay distortion to the filtered images. In this paper, we constrain the values of the kern...Show More

Rubber modified Asphalt Concrete utilizes Crumb Rubber (CR) that is acquired by shredding and grinding waste rubber tires. It is considered as a superior paving material that can cut down the required construction material and eventually save current depleting resources and CO2 emissions associated with the material transportation, construction, and production. Implementation of CR in AC mixtures ...Show More
This project focuses on studying the aerodynamic performance on dimpled airfoil for drones or UAVs propeller applications. The aim is to check if dimples will improve the efficiency of the structure by increasing lift to drag ratio and stall angle or decreasing drag force on the airfoil. The surface modification was done by considering the different arrangement and location of dimples at various R...Show More
Since its invention, concrete is the most commonly used building material in the world. However, the environmental impacts of concrete's constituents cannot be ignored. For example, 709 kg of CO2is produced in the middle east per ton of cement while the increased demand for natural aggregates for concrete material (e.g. 48.3 billion tons in 2015) exploits natural resources. Moreover, the ceramic i...Show More
Concrete subject to elevated temperatures are directly affected by inner microstructure blending components. As a consequence, owing to high temperatures, the non-destructive test (Rebound Index) helps to evaluates the behavior of concrete. The paper focuses on behavior of normal strength concrete specimens exposed to high temperatures ranging from 200°C to 800°C with distinct cooling regimes (air...Show More
Corrugated core sandwich panels are used extensively in the engineering field. To understand the behavior of the corrugated materials and identify their properties, these materials are investigated to establish their behavior pattern. One method to reduce the complexity of modeling corrugated core sheets is through homogenization. In this paper a homogenization method is derived for sandwich panel...Show More
online testing was introduced for the Physics 1 course at the Higher Colleges of Technology; Fujairah Men's College in the Fall 2016 semester. The students wrote an online test 1 in Blackboard Learn and a paper-based test 2. The validity of the online testing was assessed by comparing the performance of students, relative to the other students in their section, for the paper-based and online tests...Show More
Engineering design needs to employ the necessary multidisciplinary skills and tools to generate the alternative designs and identify the optimal one. To perform the most successful design optimization, the needs and priorities of all stakeholders involved with the engineering design should be considered. Towards this goal, a standardized process is presented, implementing the Value Driven Design (...Show More
Is the most recent removal methods for the effects of Acid Orange 7 (AO7) dye colour from wastewater have complied. Microbial biodegradation, chemical decomposition by oxidation, photo-degradation and adsorption by various adsorbents are various methods used in the removal of AO7. The advantages and disadvantages of the various method are discussed and their efficiencies are compared.Show More
The need of well-trained engineers is very huge in India. At present, the enterprises cannot fill all job openings even though the number of engineering institutes has increased exponentially in the last decade. The main hurdle in this is the holistic development and in particular the communication skills of the budding engineers in India. In this paper we have included case study of our institute...Show More
Analysis of the sustainability for the whole manufacturing does not exist until now, investigating it is still highly appreciated especially distinguish between machine design, manufacturing processes and manufacturing systems. A framework to analyze the completely manufacturing streams: machine design stream; manufacturing processes stream; and manufacturing systems streams in terms of sustainabi...Show More
Design of water distribution systems is commonly performed using design guidelines which often rely on designers' expertise. Determination of the required pumping power and the size and location of storage tanks, according to the network layout and the available diameters, is not a trivial task. The difficulty of optimizing such systems arises from applying non-uniform demand patterns along the on...Show More
This research addresses one of the most important and common issues in design studios in M8 (Architectural Engineering Department) in University of Sharjah. Usually, whenever architects design a building, they do not pay enough attention to the materials' acoustical properties, and this leads to sound issues that disturb both students and instructors. Methodologies that were used in this research ...Show More
The hardness provides the concrete specimen's compression strength, which is affected by multiple variables such as concrete grade, cure period (days) and different brand cement types (PPC). Experimental study is performed to show the effects of concrete grades, curing periods and cement types (type-I and type-II) on the rebound index. It is found that the rebound index increases with the specimen...Show More

In this work, a feasibility study was done in order...Show More
Nowadays, Industry 4.0 will become urgent to be implemented in most of the developed countries although it is still mainly conceptually. As there are three different aspects consisting of Industry 4.0 (I 4.0) such as: digital systems; biological systems and physical systems, most of research published works was focused on mainly the first one. The smart manufacturing system (SMS) is not a new inve...Show More

This helps in achieving better perform...Show More
In forensic science, soil can be one of the valuable evidence during investigations. Soils might link an individual to a crime scene as soil transferred in a mud stabbing to footwear, tires, soil marks on vehicles, traces left on clothes can correlate the presence or absence of this person on a particular scene of the crime. The soil has extreme complexity not only in components but also in physic...Show More
The incompressible, steady, turbulent flow around an external aerial pod was analyzed in order to optimize the pod's geometry for minimum drag, which is important to reduce its effect on the aircraft's performance.
