Effect of thermal comfort on occupant productivity in office buildings : response surface analysis (2020)
Journal Article
Kaushik, A., Mohemmed, A., Tumula, D., & Ebohon, J. (2020). Effect of thermal comfort on occupant productivity in office buildings : response surface analysis. Building and Environment, 180, 107021. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.buildenv.2020.107021

Thermal environment is one of the main factors that influence occupants' comfort and their productivity in office buildings. There is ample research that outlines this relationship between thermal comfort and occupant productivity. However, there is...

Assessing the impact of velocity dip and wake coefficients on velocity prediction for open channel flows (2019)
Journal Article
Alawadi, W., Prasad, T., & Al-Salih, O. (2019). Assessing the impact of velocity dip and wake coefficients on velocity prediction for open channel flows. Research journal of applied sciences, engineering and technology (Online), 16(1), 9-14. https://doi.org/10.19026/rjaset.16.5993

The aim of the present study is to assess the impact of the velocity-dip and wake strength on the velocity prediction using the dip modified laws. The dip modified laws, particularly the dip modified log wake law (DMLW-law), are preferred over the tr...

Depth-averaged simulation of flows in asymmetric compound channels with smooth and rough narrow floodplains (2018)
Journal Article
narrow floodplains. Australasian Journal of Water Resource, 22(2), 137-148. https://doi.org/10.1080/13241583.2018.1509766

Depth-averaged hydrodynamic models are predominantly used in numerical simulations of compound channel flows. One of the most popular methods for the depth-averaged simulation is Shiono and Knight method (SKM). This method accounts for the effects...

Comparison of performance of simplified RANS formulations for velocity distributions against full 3D RANS model (2018)
Journal Article
Alawadi, W., & Prasad, T. (2018). Comparison of performance of simplified RANS formulations for velocity distributions against full 3D RANS model. International journal of hydraulic engineering (Online), 7(2), 33-42. https://doi.org/10.5923/j.ijhe.20180702.03

Several analytical models of velocity distribution for turbulent uniform open channel flows were lately developed by analysis and simplification of the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations (RANS). These simplified RANS-based models, which are ca... Read More about Comparison of performance of simplified RANS formulations for velocity distributions against full 3D RANS model.
