Presentation / Conference Contribution
Chen, B., Dewar, M., Sellami, N., Stahl, H., & Blackford, J. (2013). Study of CO2 bubble dynamics in seawater from QICS field Experiment. In AGU Fall Meeting Abstracts (OS12A-06)

One of the concerns of employing CCS at engineering scale is the risk of leakage of storage CO2 on the environment and especially on the marine life. QICS, a scientific research project was launched with an aim to study the effects of a potential lea... Read More about Study of CO2 bubble dynamics in seawater from QICS field Experiment.

Saudi Arabia receives an average insolation of 6 kWh/m2/day, making it one of the most likely candidates for a country to be using solar energy for meeting its energy needs in the near future. The energy from the sun can be directly converted into el... Read More about Optical analysis of a CPC based CPV/T system for application in the kingdom of saudi arabia.

Leveraging the Cloud for Large-Scale Software Testing – A Case Study: Google Chrome on Amazon (2013)

Testing is a critical phase in the software life-cycle. While small-scale component-wise testing is done routinely as part of development and maintenance of large-scale software, the system level testing of the whole software is much more problematic...

Risk and Uncertainty in Sustainable Building Performance (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Sajjadian, S. M., Lewis, J., & Sharples, S. (2013). Risk and Uncertainty in Sustainable Building Performance. In Sustainability in Energy and Buildings: Proceedings of the 4th International Conference in Sustainability in Energy and Buildings (SEB´12) (

Decision-making in the design of sustainable building envelopes will mostly consider the trade-off between initial cost and energy savings. However, this leads to an insufficiently holistic approach to the assessment of the sustainable performance of... Read More about Risk and Uncertainty in Sustainable Building Performance.

Interpretation and determination of thermal comfort in climate change context (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Sajjadian, S., Lewis, J., & Sharples, S. (2013). Interpretation and determination of thermal comfort in climate change context. In Proceedings of IPGRC 2013: International post graduate research conference (1106-1113)

Thermal comfort is a complicatedsubjectand is thus hard to quantify generally and specificallyandthe existing quantification methods are unlikely to be reliable for naturally ventilated houses. The challenge for designers is to produce a com... Read More about Interpretation and determination of thermal comfort in climate change context.

A new hybrid method of moments (MoM)/finite-difference time-domain (FDTD), with a sub-gridded finite-difference time-domain (SGFDTD) approach is presented. The method overcomes the drawbacks of homogeneous MoM and FDTD simulations, and so permits acc... Read More about Hybrid computational scheme for antenna-human body interaction..
