Operation of Battery Exchange Stations for Electric Vehicles
No full textA Master of Science thesis in Electrical Engineering by Ghady Khalil Zaher entitled, “Operation of Battery Exchange Station for Electric Vehicles”, submitted in May 2019. Thesis advisor is Dr. Mostafa Shaaban. Soft and hard copy available.Due to environmental and energy security concerns, low emission vehicles present a vital necessity for clean transportation. In particular, Electric Vehicles (EV) are the most promising solution due to the fact that the electrical power system is the most ready infrastructure to supply their requirement. Two possible energy delivery solutions to the EVs, namely the charging stations and the Battery Exchange Stations (BES), are taking the interest of the research nowadays. In this research, a new operation approach is proposed for the BESs. The proposed approach models and optimizes the performance of the charging, discharging and the replacement of the batteries throughout the day taking into consideration the customers arrivals to the BES. The main targets of this approach are to satisfy the EV owners charging requests and to minimize the operating costs. In addition, the batteries in possession of the BES are used to secure more profit to the investor by performing energy arbitrage and supplying ancillary services to the grid. This thesis is targeting the EV manufacturers and EV charging service providers who are directly affecting the development of the EV market. The BES operation optimization problem is formulated as mixed-integer nonlinear programming and is solved as a day-ahead operational problem. The behaviour of charging/discharging power, the state of charge and the stored and replaced energy for all batteries in the station is observed for different case studies. The effect of different aspects such as the grid power limitation, solar photovoltaic system addition and battery self-degradation on the operation of the BES is designed and discussed. Also, a comparison between the charging station operation and the BES is conducted and the results show the benefits of implementing the concept of BES on the EV market. The results prove the effectiveness of the proposed approach in satisfying the EV owners and maximizing the BES investor profit.College of EngineeringDepartment of Electrical EngineeringMaster of Science in Electrical Engineering (MSEE

Dataset for Gait Analysis of Cerebellar Ataxic Patients and Healthy Adults Using MediaPipe Pose
No full textThis dataset is composed of human gait analysis data extracted using the human pose estimation framework MediaPipe Pose applied on two types of videos:1. Cerebellar Ataxic Gait Videos.2. Normal Gait Videos.Each one of the "Cerebellar Ataxic Gait " and "Normal Gait" folders contains 20 feature datasets extracted from 20 videos. The datasets are numbered from 1 to 20 with each numbering representing a healthy subject for the normal gait dataset and the same subject mimicking the cerebellar ataxic gait. Each dataset consists of 47 gait analysis features:1. 3D coordinates (x, y, z) of 12 joints in the human body: right and left shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, and ankles (36 features).2. Kinematic parameters representing joint angles: right and left shoulders abduction and adduction, hips flexion and extension, and knees flexion and extension (6 features).3. Spatiotemporal parameters: step length, step width, feet clearance, and right and left stride speed (5 features).This dataset can be used for training medical diagnosis machine learning models, which can be beneficial for physicians in assisting patients diagnosed with cerebellar ataxia or other similar neurodegenerative diseases with their gait rehabilitation process.For those who want to use this dataset for their research, make sure to cite the following paper associated with this dataset:@inproceedings{khalil2022diagnosis, author={Khalil, Hisham and Saad, Ahmed Mohamed Saad Emam and Khairuddin, Uswah}, booktitle={2022 IEEE-EMBS Conference on Biomedical Engineering and Sciences (IECBES)}, title={Diagnosis of Cerebellar Ataxia Based on Gait Analysis Using Human Pose Estimation: A Deep Learning Approach}, year={2022}, pages={201--206}, doi={10.1109/IECBES54088.2022.10079396}
Russell–Silver syndrome presenting as early asymmetric IUGR
No full textWe report a case of severe intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) which was diagnosed as Russell–Silver syndrome (RSS) postnatally. RSS (also known as Silver–Russell syndrome) is one of more than 300 recognised forms of genetic disorder that leads to short stature. Uniparental disomy for chromosome 7 (UPD7), i.e. inheriting two copies of chromosome 7 from the mother, and a change in methylation pattern (biochemical silencing of gene expression) of chromosome 11 are the most frequently associated chromosomal defects. A wide spectrum of appearances and symptoms are associated with the condition. Most characteristics are not easily identifiable with prenatal diagnostic ultrasound. The symptom most likely to be detected sonographically is IUGR. This case seeks to raise awareness of RSS, and encourages clinicians to consider uncommon genetic disorders such as RSS as a possible cause of early asymmetric IUGR.

Management of impacted proximal ureteral stone: Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy versus ureteroscopy with holmium: YAG laser lithotripsy
No full textObjective: Prospective evaluation of the efficacy and safety of the extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) and ureteroscopy with Holmium: YAG laser lithotripsy (URSL) as a primary treatment for impacted stone in the proximal ureter.
Patients and Methods: A total of 82 patients with a single impacted stone in the proximal ureter were included in the study. Patients were allocated into two groups according to patient preference for either procedure. The first group included 37 patients who were treated by SWL and the second group included 45 patients treated by URSL. The preoperative data and treatment outcomes of both procedures were compared and analyzed.
Results: There was no difference as regards to patient and stone characters between the two groups. There was significantly higher mean session number and re-treatment rate in the SWL group in comparison to URSL group (1.5 ± 0.8 vs. 1.02 ± 0.15 session, and 43.2% vs. 2.2%, respectively). At one month, the stone-free rate of the URSL group was statistically significantly higher than that of the SWL group (80% vs. 67.6%, respectively). The stone-free rate at three months was still higher in the URSL group, but without statistically significant difference (80.2% vs. 78.4%, respectively). There was no statistically significant difference in the rate of complications between the SWL and URSL (24.3% vs. 15.6%, respectively).
Conclusion: Both procedures can be used effectively and safely as a primary treatment for impacted stone in the proximal ureter; however, the URSL has a significantly higher initial stone-free rate and lower re-treatment rate
Islamization of Knowledge: A Methodology
No full textIslamization of Knowledge: A Methodology
By Imad al Din Khalil, Herndon, VA & London, UK: IIt, 1991, 28 pp., Occasional papers Series.
This well-Written book comprehensively outlines the basic precepts on which on concept and a program of Islamization of knowledge must, according to the author, rest. In his attempt to outline these directions, the author first defines the concept of Islamization as ... practing (i.e., discovering, compiling, piecing together, communicating and publishing) intellectual activity based on the Islamic concept of the universe” (p. 5). He further states that “Islamization‟ covers everthing within the realm of the true belief in the existence of Allah SWT” (p. 5). This definition is enhanced by Khalil‟ unequivocal reference to the Shariah and fiqh, the derivative of the Quran and the Sunnah, as being the principal background for the Islamization process. Another important aspect of Islamization
