Moubarak, Elias I (2019-08-14)The moisture effect on the work of adhesion of asphalt binder and mineral aggregates was investigated using molecular dynamic simulation. The implemented asphalt model, based on the OPLS-AA force field, was validated in ...
-
Flechas Moreno, Leidy Tatiana (2019-10-01)Pressurized liquefied gases such as carbon dioxide are transported at a pressure above their saturation pressure. Therefore, if a pipeline transporting this substance ruptures, a large decrease in pressure occurs, causing ...

Abdalla, Omnya Mohamed Elhassan Mohamed Osman (2019-07-12)Membrane separation technology contributes significantly to solving the global water crisis due to the advances in the materials of desalination and water treatment membranes. Nevertheless, improving the flux, rejection, ...
-
Daghash, Shaden Mohammed Hassan (2016-02-17)Adsorption is valuable for industrial separation and purification processes and the characterization of porous materials. The amount of adsorbate a given adsorbent can take at a given condition and the associated heat ...

Selam, Muaz Ahmed (2017-06-20)SAFT-VR Mie is one of the most recent extensions of Statistical Associating Fluid Theory (SAFT). It is based on the Mie potential, which is a generalized form of the Lennard-Jones potential in which the exponents of the ...
-
Hamza, Muhammad (2019-07-16)Reducing carbon dioxide emissions in an attempt to control global warming is a critical issue being addressed at global level today. One method of regulating the amount of COv2 in the atmosphere is by re-injecting COv2 ...
-
Polyether Amide Mixed Matrix Membranes Containing Sulfonated Graphene Oxide for Air-Dehumidification Rehman, Abdul (2021-12-08)An increase in demand for air-conditioning is evident due to the rise in global temperatures through the advent of global warming, coupled with Earth's growing population. An estimation of about 65% of the worldwide ...
-
Zia, Muhammad Farooq (2021-07-15)With a global shift in energy trends towards greener and more sustainable fuels, a rapid change is required in oil and gas sector to adopt practices such as carbon capture and storage, and enhanced oil recovery. These ...
-
Ali, Mehamed Abdela (2019-11-15)Compared to metals, polymers are less susceptible to corrosion and scale formation caused by high salinity water. Therefore, replacing metals with polymers in heat exchangers that use seawater would result not only in ...
-
Dawass, Noura A (2016-04-08)Fluids confined in porous media play a significant role in many engineering applications. Modeling fluids in oil reservoirs, adsorption based separations, and heterogeneous catalysis requires the accurate prediction of ...
-
Roustazadeh, Laya (2022-12-06)A significant source of energy consumption in hot and humid regions is the dehumidification of conditioned air delivered to the building areas. The conventional air dehumidification methods currently in practice are ...
