Managing and Recycling Water Hyacinth: Challenges, Methods, and Benefits
Abstract Water hyacinth, an invasive aquatic plant, poses significant challenges to water bodies worldwide. Control methods include mechanical removal, biological suppression using naturalenemies, and chemical use of targeted herbicides. Integrated approaches that combine multiple methods have proven successful in managing water hyacinth infestations. Benefits include restoring water flow
Research Project
Observer-Based Adaptive Event-Triggered Fractional-Order Sliding Mode Control Using Online Fractional-Order Learning Approach
Abstract This project introduces an innovative adaptive event-triggered control strategy (ETS) for networked uncertain nonlinear systems with unmeasured states. The proposed method, called ETFFSMC-FAC, combines a fractional-order fuzzy sliding mode controller with a fractional-order actor-critic (FAC) approach. Initially, unmeasured states are estimated using a sigma-point Kalman filter (SKF)

Fractional-order Fuzzy Sliding Mode Control of Uncertain Nonlinear MIMO Systems Using Fractional-order Reinforcement Learning
Abstract This project presents a novel approach to enhance the control performance of unknown multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) nonlinear systems. The proposed method integrates a fractional-order fuzzy sliding mode controller with online fractional-order reinforcement learning (FOFSMC-FRL). The controller utilizes two Takagi–Sugeno–Kang (TSK) fuzzy neural network actors to approximate the

Optimal Fractional-Order PID Controller based on Fractional-Order Actor-Critic Algorithm
Abstract This project proposes an online optimization approach for a fractional-order PID controller using a fractional-order actor-critic algorithm (FOPID-FOAC), aiming to enhance the performance of nonlinear systems. The FOPID-FOAC scheme combines the advantages of fractional-order PID controllers and actor-critic reinforcement learning algorithms. The proposed FOAC algorithm employs fractional

Optimization of Solar Tree Performance in Egypt: A Simulation-Based Investigation
Abstract This project explores the optimization of solar tree performance in Egypt through the orientation and positioning of solar panels. Solar energy is a crucial and abundant resource in Egypt, and the paper proposes the use of solar trees as a promising solution to harness this energy efficiently. The design process involves two main aspects: optimizing the orientation of solar panels and
The School of Business had a Collaborative Partnership with the Architecture and Urban Design (ARUD) Program
At the School of Business Administration, we are excited to embark on a collaborative venture with the Architecture and Urban Design (ARUD) program at the School of Engineering and Applied Science for the Adaptive Reuse of the “Bayt Al-Razzaz” initiative. Supervised by Dr. Dina Shehayeb, Program Director of ARUD, this project aims to foster interdisciplinary synergy between ARUD and the Business School. Our students are actively integrating commercial and business dimensions into six project proposals developed by ARUD students for the Adaptive Reuse project. Notably, three courses from the
Civil Engineering Students Explored Various Construction Aspects during a Field Trip to the Arkan Palms
As part of the Construction Engineering & Methods course within the Civil Engineering Program at Nile University, our junior students recently embarked on an enriching visit to the “Arkan_Palms 205 mega project” in El-Sheikh Zayed city. During this enlightening field trip, our students delved into various construction facets and gained firsthand insights into the execution of diverse on-site activities, including: - post-tensioned concrete slabs. - Raft foundations. - Isolated footings. Moreover, they actively participated in a professional orientation session centered on occupational safety
