This study looks into the design, performance analysis, and optimization of a solar PV system to power a reverse osmosis desalination plant (RODP). The main goal is to compare the proposed grid connected solar PV to the conventional utility grid in terms of technical (balance supply and demand – meet the desalination plant's daily, monthly, and yearly electrical load), economic (cost of electricity COE), and environmental (CO2 emission reductions) performance. This study employed modeling and simulation analyses to develop and assess the performance of a grid connected solar PV system for the RODP in Sharjah. The RODP's daily electricity load is 125.2 kWh/day (high pressure, feed, and dosing pumps). The results demonstrate that 82.7 percent of the energy produced by the grid-connected solar PV system is produced by the solar PV system, while 17.3 percent is acquired from the grid. All of the RODP's electrical load was met on a daily, monthly, and annual basis (no capacity shortfall), and 11.3 percent of the total electricity generated by the solar PV system was sold back to the grid. The price of power fell from ＄0.12 per kWh (grid purchase price) to ＄0.0856 per kWh (renewable power system). With the grid connected solar PV system, the renewables fractions for power generation grew from 0 to 81.2 percent. The grid connected solar PV system resulted in net emissions reductions of 78.8%, 89.6%, and 56.6 percent for CO2, NOX, and SO2, respectively.

Ocean wave energy is one of the most promising renewable energy resources that were less explored due to their large-scale industrial limitations. Due to the technical constraints related to the experimental designs, this paper demonstrates a method to simulate a heaving wave energy converter and connecting it to electrical circuitry to rectify the induced voltage. This paper also demonstrates a method to implement control strategies in the wave energy converter (WEC) using the six switches in an active rectifier for controlling the current in a power-take-off device. This can be done by converting the control methods using field-oriented control. In this paper, two examples of control strategies are implemented, namely, resistive loading and approximated complex conjugate.

Effects of heat-loss on the effectiveness of a multi-fluid heat exchanger are analyzed in the current work. The tri channel heat exchanger with three communicating fluids is discretized and evaluated using the finite element method. Dimensionless parameters are defined and used to enhance the adaptability of the method, and to study the effects of energy loss to surroundings in the form of heat on the heat exchanger’s operating fluid behavior. The detailed parametric analysis carried out in the work quantifies the performance degradation of the tri-fluid recirculating type heat exchanger due to energy loss to surroundings.

Stress concentrations induced by geometric discontinuities can have detrimental effects on the structural reliability and integrity of components subjected to static or cyclic loadings. Thus, it is instrumental to have the knowledge to predict the stress concentration levels induced by a wide range of geometric discontinuities that cannot be avoided in engineering applications. This work aims to shed light into the cooperative interactive stress concentrating effects of coexisting geometric discontinuities. In particular, this work computationally investigates the stress concentration induced by the interaction of closely placed through-holes and fillets. Results show that the stress concentration induced by the cooperative interaction of the investigated geometric discontinuities far exceeds the stress concentration induced independently by each of them.

Floors safety is the primary concern globally due to the injuries and fatalities caused by slippery flooring surfaces. Flooring surfaces with wear and tear developments may have poor frictional properties that can negatively affect the slip resistance performance and provide unsafe environments to pedestrians by causing slip, trip, and fall incidents. This study reviews the current technological advancements in the literature associated with two main keywords of floor safety and traction properties to assess and predict flooring slipperiness in terms of coefficient of friction (COF). This study enhances the existing literature by providing recommendations for the future research direction in assessing shoe-floor slip resistance performance using structural analysis tools.

Current practices of predicting the performance of a construction team require inspections that are still mainly manual, time-consuming, and can contain errors. In this paper, we proposed an automated site inspection and violation detection system that can be used in construction sites. Our proposed system uses deep learning SqueezeNet pre-trained network to detect two main violations: i) health & safety and ii) electrical hazards. The accuracy of our proposed system is 91.67% in detecting health & safety violations related to none-wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) while the accuracy of our proposed system reached 92.86% in detecting electrical hazards.

The rapid advances in technology over the last decade have significantly altered the nature of engineering knowledge and skills required in the modern industries. In response to the changing professional requirements, engineering institutions have updated their curriculum and pedagogical practices. However, most of the changes in the curriculum have been focused on the core engineering courses without much consideration for the auxiliary courses in mathematics and sciences. In this paper, we aim to propose a new, augmented mathematics curriculum aimed at meeting the requirements of the modern, technology-based engineering workplace. The proposed updates require minimal resources and can be seamlessly integrated into the existing curriculum.

Jordan Energy Strategy 2020 – 2030 clearly states that storage technologies will be part of the regulatory framework in the future, make the grid agile, smart, clean and flexible. The storage was not part of the traditional electricity network in the past, but it is a game changer especially with the advancement of technology. Three main scenarios have been developed to achieve energy savings, reduce CO2 emissions and increase demand-side energy storage of 110 GWh by 2030, according to Jordan's Energy Strategy 2020. -2030. Another scenario was worked out to reduce energy from the generation side and energy storage by replacing 110 GWh of diesel generators on the generation side, and the result was a saving of 178 million dinars annually and 110 GWh from the generation side. The final scenario was created to achieve load conversion from excess energy at peak sun hour and send it at night at peak demand. in Jordan by generating 311 GWh at Mujib Dam by 2030, the project is not economical but important for the purpose of providing grid services.

Energy consumption has always been a critical environmental issue, especially in countries with extreme conditions such as United Arab Emirates (UAE). The building sector has become a key contributor to the increasing energy demands and corresponding carbon footprints worldwide. Since the residential sector is the second highest energy consuming sector after the commercial sector, it is important to study tools and methods to reduce the energy consumed by this sector. In order to optimize the energy performance, passive design strategies, such as shading systems, has been an efficient strategy to achieve that. This study aims to test the impact of shading system, which is one of the most effective passive design strategies for hot climate, on the energy consumption of Ibn Khaldoun Villa in Sharjah, UAE. For this purpose, DesignBuilder and EnergyPlus software are utilized for the modeling and simulation of the villa. To test the impact of shading system on the energy performance of the building, four scenarios will be considered taking into account different buildings orientations while applying the shading device. Results shows that scenario (3), where the building’s most glazed side faces north while using proper shading system, is the most efficient solution in reducing the energy consumption of the building with percentage of 11.07%.

Due to the current environmental catastrophe and energy crises, the government and industries shift towards sustainable, renewable, and clean energy sources. This circumstance motivates the harvesting of energy from all available sources. Phase change materials (PCM) are latent heat storage (LHS) substances and have been proven one of the potential techniques for thermal energy storage (TES). However, PCMs possess some disadvantages lies lower thermal conductivity, due to that the heat transfer and heat storage capacity are less. In this present work, feasibility and thermal conductivity enhancement of dispersing Copper (II) Oxide (CuO) nanoparticles in six various weight concentrations (0.1%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 2.0%, 3.0%, and 5.0%) into the salt hydrate PCM with Sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS) were analyzed. A two-step method is adopted for dispersing nanoparticles and PCM. The key objective of the research work is to characterize the elemental mapping, chemical stability, thermal stability, and thermal conductivity of developed CuO enhanced salt hydrate PCM. The Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy shows the CuO nanoparticles integrated well, and no chemical reaction occurs with nanoparticles, and PCM means chemically stable. The thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) reveals that prepared composite salt hydrate PCM are thermally stable up to 474°C. Furthermore, the thermal conductivity was enhanced by 87.39% during the dispersion of 3.0wt%CuO nanoparticles into salt hydrate PCM. Thus, the newly developed nanocomposite PCM is potential material for medium and low-temperature solar TES applications.
