Prevention of gallium arsenide photocorrosion by an epoxy adhesion layer
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2004 , Article)
Coating of gallium arsenide with an adhesion layer of commercial epoxy prevented its photocorrosion. A two-component room temperature curing adhesive paste (Araldite 2014) has been selected. When GaAs/Araldite was employed ...
The Gulf: A young sea in decline
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2009 , Article)
This review examines the substantial changes that have taken place in marine habitats and resources of the Gulf over the past decade. The habitats are especially interesting because of the naturally high levels of temperature ...
Profiling consumers: A study of Qatari consumers’ shopping motivations
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2006 , Article)
The paper investigates reasons consumers go shopping in Doha, Qatar. Four hundred supermarket shoppers completed self-administered surveys regarding their attitudes toward 57 individual shopping motivation items. The paper ...
Fuzzy time-frequency defect classifier for NDT applications
(
IEEE
, 2009 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, a customized classifier is presented for the industry-practiced Nondestructive Evaluation (NDE) protocols using a Hybrid-Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) to classify the and characterize the defects commonly ...
Intelligent sensor network for obstacle avoidance strategy
(
IEEE
, 2005 , Conference Paper)
An obstacle avoidance system was developed for a custom-made Autonomous Navigational Robotic Vehicle (ANROV), based on an intelligent sensor network and fuzzy logic control. Unlike conventional crisp control systems, this ...
