Two sets, each contains eight PV panels, were selected from this PV array. The first set consists of the first panel in each row of the PV array panel and the other set consists of the last panel in each row. The first set was man-made cleaned only once (on [...]

The conversion from alternating current to direct current creates harmonics and causes power quality issues especially when large amount of power being converted. To mitigate these issues, conventional schemes for pot line Rectiformers are integrated with passive harmonic filters (PHF), which are either connected directly to the feeding grid or [...]

Responding to the unprecedented challenges imposed by the 5G technologies, mobile operators have given significant attention to Heterogeneous Cloud Radio Access Networks (H-CRAN) due to their beneficial features of performing optimization, cost effectiveness, and improving spectral and energy efficiency performance. H-CRAN inherits the attractive benefits of Heterogeneous Networks (HetNet) and [...]

The main purpose of the study is to investigate the short run and long run relationship between government revenues and government expenditures in Bahrain over the period from 1990 to 2017. Using annual data and time series analysis, the study indicated that the above two variables, government revenues and government [...]

This study aims to relate organizational characteristics on preferences for project delivery methods (PDMs) in construction industry of Pakistan. Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based model is developed for predicting proportion of projects done by different types of organizations under various PDMs. It is found that ANN model give satisfactory accuracy [...]

For the first time, the influence of fine variation of pH value of the chemical bath (6.5, 7.0 and 7.5) on structure, morphology, optical and photoresponse of SnS films was investigated. X-ray analysis revealed that the structure undergoes orthorhombic-to-cubic phase transformation at pH 7.0. Furthermore, a significant reduction in dark [...]

This paper presents the investigation of the influence of the ammoniating time of GaN nanowires (NWs) on the crystalline structure, surface morphology, and optical characteristics. Morphological analysis indicates the growth of good quality and high density of NWs with diameters around 50 nm and lengths up to tens of microns [...]

The objective of this study is to identify the most important air pollutants based on their individual contribution to Air Quality Index (AQI) and to determine the major air pollution sources in Bahrain. Data sets from seventeen air quality monitoring sites were evaluated using XLSTAT 2014 and Statistical Package for [...]

In this research work, structure, microstructure, optical and photocatalytic properties of undoped and Erbium doped nanostructured ZnO thin films prepared by sol-gel dip-coating are investigated. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis indicates that the deposited films crystallize within the hexagonal wurtzite-type structure with a preferential growth orientation along (002) plane. Morphological observations [...]

Zinc Sulfide (ZnS) quantum dots (QDs) embedded in sol-gel silica single-layer films were synthesized by dip-coating and thermal treatment. Nucleation and growth of these QDs occurred during annealing. The effect of annealing temperature on morphological, structural and optical properties of the films was considered in the range (200–500 °C). Scanning [...]
