Numerical Investigation of the Required Quantity of Inert Gas Agents in Fire Suppression Systems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Inert gas agents have the potential to be widely used in fire suppression systems due to health and safety concerns associated with active chemicals. To suppress fire while minimizing hypoxic effects in an occupied area, ... -
Optical Gas Imaging (OGI) as a Moderator for Interdisciplinary Cooperation, Reduced Emissions and Increased Safety
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Optical Gas Imaging (OGI) cameras represent an interesting tool for identifying leaking components in hydrocarbon processing and transport systems. They make it possible to see exactly where a leak originates, thereby ... -
Recent progress and approaches on transition metal chalcogenides for hydrogen production
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Development of efficient and affordable photocatalysts is of great significance for energy production and environmental sustainability. Transition metal chalcogenides (TMCs) with particle sizes in the 1–100 nm have been ... -
The Road toward Smart Cities: A Study of Citizens’ Acceptance of Mobile Applications for City Services
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Many local governments have started using smartphone applications to more effectively inform and communicate with citizens. This trend is of interest, as cities can only be smart if they are responsive to their citizens. ... -
Ruthenium (Ru) Doped Titanium Dioxide (P25) electrode for dye sensitized solar cells
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)In this study, P25-titanium dioxide (TiO2) was doped with ruthenium (Ru) by systematically varying the Ru content at 0.15, 0.30, 0.45 and 0.6 mol%. The synthesized Ru-doped TiO2 nanomaterials have been characterized by ... -
Solar-driven desalination using nanoparticles
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Due to the high light absorption and the possibility of localizing boiling to the interior of the receiver, nanoparticles are promising for solar-driven desalination. The paper presents an experimental study of the ... -
Statistical and Spatial Analysis of Hurricane-induced Roadway Closures and Power Outages
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Hurricanes lead to substantial infrastructure system damages, such as roadway closures and power outages, in the US annually, especially in states like Florida. As such, this paper aimed to assess the impacts of Hurricane ...
