Apprehension of Resistive Characteristics of Plasma Ionized Hybrid Nano Fibrous Silicon
(2018-12-04)
Literature review done for the study identified number of challenges with the conventional way of manufacturing nano patterned surfaces. Also, it indicated immense potential of nano structured surface as a sensing surface ...
Life cycle assessment of conventional and alternative fuels for vehicles
(2018-08-01)
For the near future, it is important that vehicles are run by alternative fuels. Before we can go ahead with the new alternatives, it is crucial that a comprehensive life cycle analysis is carried out for fuels. In this ...
Development and analysis of active rear axle steering for 8x8 combat vehicle
(2018-08-01)
This thesis proposes and compares multiple vehicle dynamics controllers using rear axle steering of an 8x8 combat vehicle. The controllers are assessed on ability to increase maneuverability at low speed, increase stability ...
Passive damping mechanism of Herschel-Quincke tubes for pressure pulsations in piping systems
(2018-12-01)
The acoustic pressure pulsations in industrial piping systems can induce fluctuating loads on inline equipment which may cause fatigue failure and in severe cases, initiate a phenomenon known as acoustic resonance. Passive ...
Investigation of thermal management options for robots
(2018-08-01)
This thesis research studies the thermal challenges of robots and evaluates the potential thermal management options. In this regard, it aims to develop and analyze various thermal management options for robotic systems. ...
Design and verification of situation-aware real-time systems
(2018-12-01)
A real-time system (RTS) is usually well-defined and operates based on a specific model defined during system design. However, the RTS can interact with different objects from its environment and needs to satisfy a number ...
Development and assessment of renewable energy based integrated systems for dimethyl ether production
(2018-12-01)
Dimethyl-ether (DME) is considered to be one of the most promising, renewable alternative fuels. This thesis studies, develops, analyzes and assesses the performance of three dimethyl-ether production integrated systems, ...
Active balancing of lithium-ion cells for maximum power discharging
(2018-07-01)
The future of Electric Vehicle’s (EV) depends on the adoption of the technology. Currently the limiting factor for EV adoption is mainly the initial cost, the driving range, charging capability, and the battery life. The ...
Low complexity multicast beamforming in massive MIMO multi-cell networks
(2018-08-01)
In this thesis, we consider downlink multicast beamforming in massive multi-input multi-
output (MIMO) multi-cell networks. Both non-cooperative and cooperative beamforming scenarios are considered. For the non-cooperative ...
High-speed lateral stability analysis of articulated heavy vehicles using driver-in-the-loop real time simulation
(2018-04-01)
High-speed testing procedures for evaluating the lateral stability of multi-trailer articulated heavy vehicles (MTAHV) include the use of both an open-loop and a closed-loop maneuvers as specified in ISO-14791. The standard ...
