University of Wollongong in Dubai - Papers

Objective: The purpose of this study was carried out to investigate and evaluate the factors affecting perceptions of prenatal care management services. A review in this category found very few studies mostly concentrated in the American, Canada and Europe countries. Methods: This is a quantitative study where a convenient sample of 93 pregnant women either attending a selected private or a public health care hospital was used. Results: The results revealed 80.6% of women surveyed perceived to be satisfied by the management of both health care sectors. In the public sector, 75.6% were satisfied while 85.4% in the private sector. …

The study of floating oscillating water column (OWC) wave energy conversion (WEC) device performance includes analysis of the dynamic coupling of the water column and the floating structure. In the present investigation, a mechanical oscillator model was proposed in order to examine this relationship for the heave motion of a floating wave energy conversion device. Characterisation of the dynamic system optimal behaviour was performed by examining the effect of relative OWC and floating structure natural frequencies, the phase relationships of the various system components and the optimal power take-off damping of the system. It was determined that separation of the …
