The effect of metakaolin and hybrid polymers on the microstructure of concrete (2021)
Journal Article
concrete. Periodicals of engineering and natural sciences, 9(1), 162-173

It has been established that metakaolin (MK) can be applied as a supplementary cementitious material and
that some polymers can enhance substantial properties of concrete. Previous studies showed that, when used
in combination, MK and polymers can... Read More about The effect of metakaolin and hybrid polymers on the microstructure of concrete.

Experimental investigation of the effect of nanoparticles and polymer on interfacial tension between oil and water during Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) (2021)
Thesis
Rashid, F. Experimental investigation of the effect of nanoparticles and polymer on interfacial tension between oil and water during Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR). (Dissertation). University of Salford

Nanotechnology has been generally used in several other industries, and the interest in it within the oil industry is increasing, due to its potential to deeply change enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and to improve the mechanism of recovery. With the dec... Read More about Experimental investigation of the effect of nanoparticles and polymer on interfacial tension between oil and water during Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR).

Performance enhancement of a thermoelectric harvester with a PCM/metal foam composite (2021)
Journal Article
Borhani, S., Hosseini, M., Pakrouh, R., Ranjabr, A., & Nourian, A. (2021). Performance enhancement of a thermoelectric harvester with a PCM/metal foam composite. Renewable Energy, 168, 1122-1140. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.renene.2021.01.020

The present numerical investigation examines the performance improvement of thermoelectric generators (TEGs) by using phase change materials (PCM) and porous medium. Due to the high latent heat of PCMs, both sides of the TEG were filled with paraffin... Read More about Performance enhancement of a thermoelectric harvester with a PCM/metal foam composite.
