Explainable deep learning model for automatic mulberry leaf disease classification
(
Frontiers Media SA
, 2023 , Article)
Mulberry leaves feed Bombyx mori silkworms to generate silk thread. Diseases that affect mulberry leaves have reduced crop and silk yields in sericulture, which produces 90% of the world’s raw silk. Manual leaf disease ...
Application of Tools of Quality Function Deployment and Modified Balanced Scorecard for Optimal Allocation of Pavement Management Resources
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. (IEEE)
, 2020 , Article)
Pavement management is a set of tools used to evaluate and maintain pavements so that the pavements can be used safely and effectively over a certain period. Many traditional methods were and are still being used by entities ...
Development of a stacked machine learning model to compute the capability of ZnO-based sensors for hydrogen detection
(
Elsevier
, 2024 , Article)
Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanocomposite sensors decorated with various dopants are popular tools for detecting even low hydrogen (H2) concentrations. The nanocomposite's chemistry, temperature, and H2 concentration impact the success ...
Mitigation of railway-induced vibration by using subgrade stiffening
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2015 , Article)
Railway-induced ground vibration is often associated with sites with soft ground. Stiffening of the subgrade beneath the railway track is one particular measure that has potential to reduce the vibration level at such ...
TORT3D: A MATLAB code to compute geometric tortuosity from 3D images of unconsolidated porous media
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
Tortuosity is a parameter that plays a significant role in the characterization of complex porous media systems and it has a significant impact on many engineering and environmental processes and applications. Flow in ...
Reducing railway-induced ground-borne vibration by using open trenches and soft-filled barriers
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
A trench can act as a barrier to ground vibration and is a potential mitigation measure for low frequency vibration induced by surface railways. However, to be effective at very low frequencies the depth required becomes ...
Diaphragm shear strength and stiffness of aluminum roof panel assemblies
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
A diaphragm is an assembly of planar structural elements interconnected to each other to provide in-plane bracing system and transmit in-plane forces. The diaphragm geometry, supporting frame, type of the panel profiles, ...
Assessment of the taxi service in Doha
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
This research focuses on passengers' satisfaction of the taxi service in Doha, Qatar. Qatar is a rich developing country where taxis are widely considered as a public transportation service due to the limited use of the ...
Performance assessment of evaporatively-cooled window driven by solar chimney in hot and humid climates
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
This study investigates the application of the evaporatively-cooled window system in hot and humid climates and assesses its seasonal performance and benefits in terms of energy savings. The validated system is a hybrid ...
The role of statistics in data-centric engineering
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
We explore the role of statistics for Big Data analysis arising from the emerging field of Data-Centric Engineering. Using examples related to sensor-instrumented bridges, we highlight a number of issues and challenges. ...
