A contactless and non-intrusive current measurement technique for low and medium voltage AC power systems
(2023-08-01)The real-time state of current is essential to precisely monitor and control the AC power systems. It is also crucial for detecting various types of faults that may lead to long duration and wide area outages and affect ... -
A content analysis of women's safety websites: rape myths and the internet
(2012-09-01)Women’s sexual victimization is perceived as a one sided problem that emphasizes women’s choices and neglect men’s accountability. Rape myths support an explanation of rape that allows women to remain fearful of sexual ... -
A content and thematic analysis of Reddit discussions about When They See Us
(2021-08-01)As the number of wrongful conviction media productions increases, an understanding of their impact on viewers is prudent. In this thesis, I investigated the effect of watching When They See Us – a dramatized miniseries ... -
A contextual approach to digital citizenship, digital literacy, and student voice
(2019-09-01)Reluctance to embrace the use of social media in the K-12 classroom means there is limited research on the extent to which a guided approach to using social media might support students in an educational context. This ... -
A contextual authentication framework for smart home environments
(2020-04-01)A smart home is one equipped with connected Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices that can be remotely accessed and controlled. Access to smart home devices is mostly achieved through smartphones and tablet computers, but this ... -
Control of resonant excitation in piping systems
(9th International Symposium on Fluid-Structure Interactions, Flow-Sound Interactions, Flow-Induced Vibration & Noise, 2018)Acoustic resonance is a phenomenon which is known to have severe repercussions in a variety of industrial systems. Acoustic resonance can cause high levels of vibrations leading to damage or premature failure of critical ... -
Controlling the Vienna rectifier using a simplified space vector pulse width modulation technique
(2019-11-01)In this thesis, a simplified Space-Vector Pulse-Width-Modulation (SVPWM) technique for the Vienna rectifier is introduced to reduce the computational burden, the switching losses and the Total-Harmonic-Distortion (THD). ... -
Convection in a differentially heated rotating spherical shell of Boussinesq fluid with radiative forcing
(2012-12-01)In this study we investigate the flow of a Boussinesq fluid contained in a rotating, differentially heated spherical shell. Previous work, on the spherical shell of Boussinesq fluid, differentially heated the shell by ... -
Conversion of a scroll compressor to an expander for organic Rankine cycle: modeling and analysis
(2010-12-01)Conversion of a scroll compressor to an expander for organic Rankine Cycle: modeling and analysis -
Cooperative advertising for competing manufacturers: The impact of long-term promotional effects
(ScienceDirect, 2017-02)The effectiveness of cooperative advertising programs is studied in a market where two competing manufacturers deal with an exclusive retailer and two products. Two two-stage game theoretic models are developed to analyze ... -
Cooperative advertising in competing supply chains and the long-term effects of retail advertising
(2021-09-03)The profitability of cooperative advertising (CA) programs is analyzed in a supply chain where competing manufacturers sell their products through competing retailers. We study a two-period game-theoretic model that accounts ... -
Cooperative advertising programs: are accrual constraints necessary?
(Wiley, 2017-06)This paper investigates how the use of an accrual constraint in a cooperative advertising program affects channel members’ profits in a bilateral monopoly, as well as their pricing and advertising decisions. The main ... -
Cooperative localization based on received signal strength in wireless sensor network
(2010-01-01)Localization accuracy based on RSS (Received Signal Strength) is notoriously inaccurate in the application of wireless sensor networks. RSS is subject to shadowing effects, which is signal attenuation caused by stationary ... -
Cooperative relay beamforming design for multi-cluster relay interference networks
(2016-08-01)In this work, we consider a multi-cluster amplified-and-forward (AF) relay interference network and design relay beam matrix for each cluster to maximize the minimum signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio (SINR) at ... -
Coordinated control of active safety systems for multi-trailer articulated heavy vehicles
(2016-06-01)To improve the directional performance of multitrailer articulated heavy vehicles (MTAHVs), the model-based active safety systems, including the active trailer steering, trailer differential braking and the active roll ... -
Coordinated multicast beamforming for multi-cell massive MIMO systems
(2023-09-01)In this thesis, we consider the efficient coordinated multi-cell multicast beamforming design in massive massive multiple-input multiple output (MIMO) cellular networks. For the problem that aims to minimize the base station ... -
CORE: a framework for the automatic repair of concurrency bugs
(2015-01-01)Desktop computers now contain 2, 4 or even 8 processors. To benefit from them programs must be written to work in parallel. If writing good code is hard, writing good parallel code is much harder. Parallelization adds ... -
Correlation and real time classification of physiological streams for critical care monitoring.
(2013-12-01)This thesis presents a framework for the deployment of algorithms that support the correlation and real-time classification of physiological data streams through the development of clinically meaningful alerts using a blend ... -
Cortical adaption influences excitability in the dominant and non-dominant hands following complex novel motor training
(2014-09-01)The primary motor cortex (M1) can dynamically control the magnitude of motor refinement through motor plasticity. Plasticity can be investigated by looking at changes to motor excitability, which has been established to ... -
Cortical and cerebellar motor processing changes subsequent to motor training and cervical spine manipulation
(2012-07-01)Chronic neck pain, including subclinical neck pain (SCNP), is a significant problem that places a burden on the healthcare system. Chiropractic manipulation has shown not only to be effective in treating symptoms of neck ...
