Journal Article

© 2020 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. Sand movement is one of the main environmental hazards in Northern Sudan that threaten livelihood and rural communities. This paper investigates for the first time the use of the Synthetic Ape... Read More about The use of sar offset tracking for detecting sand dune movement in sudan.

A comparison between London and Baghdad surface urban heat islands and possible engineering mitigation solutions (2016)
Journal Article

This study adopts remote sensing techniques to compare the Surface urban Heat Island (SUHI) in Bagh-dad and London as they represent different climatic conditions, natural environments and levels of urbandevelopment. It tests the reported correlation... Read More about A comparison between London and Baghdad surface urban heat islands and possible engineering mitigation solutions.

Modelling the spatiotemporal change of canopy urban heat islands (2016)
Journal Article

This study models the spatiotemporal change of Birmingham’s urban heat island (UHI) using air temperature measurements made during the HiTemp project to study the atmospheric conditions over the city [1]. The study identifies the causative factors an... Read More about Modelling the spatiotemporal change of canopy urban heat islands.

Physical model tests and numerical simulation for assessing the stability of brick-lined tunnels (2016)
Journal Article

Nowadays, numerical modelling is increasingly used to assess the stability of tunnels and underground caverns. However, an analysis of the mechanical behaviour of existing brick-lined tunnels remains challenging due to the complex material component...

Quality assessment of an Ultra-Wide Band positioning system for indoor wheelchair court sports (2015)
Journal Article

Ultra-Wide Band radio positioning systems are maturing very quickly and now represent a good candidate for indoor positioning. The aim of this study was to undertake a quality assessment on the use of a commercial Ultra-Wide Band positioning system f...

An approach to produce a GIS database for road surface monitoring (2014)
Conference Proceeding

Road Surface Monitoring (RSM) is the process of detecting the distress on paved or unpaved road surfaces. The primary aim of this process is to detect any distress (such as road surface cracks) at early stages in order to apply maintenance on time. E...
