This is issue 5 of Innovation@UAE Magazine, a bilingual quarterly periodical developed by the Ministry of Education's Department of Science, Technology, and Research.
This issue has a focus on sustainability, specifically renewable energy and environmental preservation. It includes research features about projects that seek to cross-bred Arabian Gulf corals to enhance their resistance to global climate change effects; develop new power conversion technology to reduce cost and line-losses of wind farms; develop cleaning schedule system for photovoltaic farms; and utilize machine learning and credit card data to predict customer repayment behaviors. This issue also profiles a leading Emirati electrical engineer and computer scientist whose prolific scholarship is helping to prepare the country for its post-oil economy, and a mechanical engineering professor whose work responds to the growing need for innovative sustainable solutions in fuel cells, energy storage, carbon capture, and biogas production.
