Nonlinear vibrations of variable thickness curved panels made of multi-scale epoxy/fiberglass/CNT material using Jacobi elliptic functions
( Taylor and Francis Ltd. , 2022 , Article)This article deals with nonlinear vibration study of variable thickness cylindrical panels made of multi-scale composite materials containing epoxy matrix, glass fibers, and carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The elastic properties ... -
Nonlocal damage modelling in clay/epoxy nanocomposites using a multiscale approach
( Elsevier , 2016 , Article)This study proposed a concurrent multiscale method to model damage in clay/epoxy nanocomposites. The method uses a nonlocal damage formulation to regularize the damage model. The multiscale method used, is based on the ... -
Nonlocal strain gradient effects on forced vibrations of porous FG cylindrical nanoshells
( Techno-Press , 2020 , Article)The present paper explores forced vibrational properties of porosity-dependent functionally graded (FG) cylindrical nanoshells exposed to linear-type or triangular-type impulse load via classical shell theory (CST) and ... -
A nonparametric feature for neonatal EEG seizure detection based on a representation of pseudo-periodicity
( Elsevier Ltd , 2011 , Article)Automated methods of neonatal EEG seizure detection attempt to highlight the evolving, stereotypical, pseudo-periodic, nature of EEG seizure while rejecting the nonstationary, modulated, coloured stochastic background in ... -
Nonparametric multivariate covariance chart for monitoring individual observations
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)Parametric and nonparametric multivariate control charts that are proven very useful in monitoring the covariance matrix of multivariate normally or “nearly” normally distributed continuous datasets have been proposed in ... -
Nonparametric structural damage detection algorithm for ambient vibration response: Utilizing artificial neural networks and self-organizing maps
( American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) , 2016 , Article)This study presentes a new nonparametric structural damage detection algorithm that integrates self-organizing maps with a pattern-recognition neural network to quantify and locate structural damage. In this algorithm, ... -
Nonphysician Out-of-Hospital Rapid Sequence Intubation Success and Adverse Events: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
( Elsevier , 2017 , Article)Study objective: Rapid sequence intubation performed by nonphysicians such as paramedics or nurses has become increasingly common in many countries; however, concerns have been stated in regard to the safe use and ... -
NONSYNDROMIC HEARING LOSS IN QATAR: THE GENETIC BASIS AND THE DIAGNOSTIC YIELD OF GENETIC TESTING
(2022 , Professional Masters Project)Background: Hearing loss is the most predominant sensory defect worldwide with around 8% of cases occurring in children. Approximately 66% of childhood-onset hearing loss cases are attributed to genetic factors. The ... -
Norfloxacin loaded lipid polymer hybrid nanoparticles for oral administration: Fabrication, characterization, in silico modelling and toxicity evaluation
( MDPI , 2021 , Article)Norfloxacin (NOR), widely employed as an anti-bacterial drug, has poor oral bioavailability. Nano based drug delivery systems are widely used to overcome the existing oral bioavailability challenges. Lipid–Polymer Hybrid ... -
Normative account of Islamic bioethics in end-of-life care
( Taylor and Francis Group , 2022 , Article)This article addresses the bioethical challenges raised by end-of-life care (EoLC) from the perspective of Islamic normativity. Rejecting positivist positions, it argues for the use of a flexible approach midway between a ... -
Normative Islam, prejudice and women leaders: why do Arab women leaders suffer?
( Taylor & Francis , 2020 , Article)The main aim of this study is to compare prejudicial practices against women leaders with egalitarian Islamic guidelines and current efforts towards achieving gender equality. The study also aims to highlight and offer new ... -
Northeastern Qatari coast hydrodynamic modeling for assessment of sensitive ecosystems under anthropogenic and natural stressors
(2015 , Master Thesis)The Northeastern Qatari coast, comprising diverse and sensitive flora and fauna communities (e.g. coral reefs and patches, seagrass meadows and turtles) is expected to undergo changes imposed by anthropogenic stressors ... -
Nose-to-brain delivery of BACE1 siRNA loaded in solid lipid nanoparticles for Alzheimer’s therapy
( Elsevier , 2017 , Article)Abstract We designed a delivery system to obtain an efficient and optimal nose-to-brain transport of BACE1 siRNA, potentially useful in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. We selected a cell-penetrating peptide, the short ... -
Nostalgic diaspora or diasporic nostalgia? Discursive and identity constructions of Greeks in Qatar
( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article)This paper deals with the discursive constructions of transformative, agentive and creative ethnolinguistic self-conceptualizations and positionings of some select members of the approximately 3000-member Greek diasporic ... -
Not all drugs are created equal: impaired future thinking in opiate, but not alcohol, users
( Springer Verlag , 2018 , Article)Episodic future thinking refers to the ability to travel forward in time to pre-experience an event. Although future thinking has been intimately linked with self and identity, to our knowledge, no prior research has ...
