Publish-subscribe based middleware for heterogeneous critical infrastructure systems communication.
(2014-07-01)
Critical Infrastructures (CIs) are physical assets and organizations responsible for the production and distribution of society’s vital goods and services. The increasing interconnection of CIs has resulted in interdependencies ...
Design and analysis of an adjustable wrist rehabilitation robot.
(2014-07-01)
Numerous people lose motor capabilities of their hands every year because of the Stroke. Rehabilitation robot was used to recover the movement ability based on the plasticity theory. Many robots have been proposed but most ...
Determining fuzzy link quality membership functions in wireless sensor networks
(2014-04-01)
Wireless Sensor Network routing protocols rely on the estimation of the quality of the links between nodes to determine a suitable path from the data source nodes to a data-collecting node. Several link estimators have ...
Multi-antenna relay network beamforming design for multiuser peer-to-peer communications.
(2014-08-01)
In this work, we consider a multi-user peer-to-peer relay network with multiple multiantenna
relays which employ amplify-and-forward relaying protocol. Assuming distributed
relay beamforming strategy, we investigate the ...
Monte-Carlo-simulation-based performance analysis of the heat transfer process in nuclear-based hydrogen production based on Cu-Cl Cycle.
(2014-08-01)
As a crucial step in nuclear-based hydrogen production based on Cu-Cl cycle, the performance analysis of heat transfer process is of paramount importance. However, as a newly built system, the major obstacle of applying ...
Nonlinear vibration and chaotic motion of uniform and non-uniform carbon nanotube resonators.
(2014-07-01)
Vibration analysis of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is very essential field owing to
their many promising applications in tiny instruments. The unique and interesting
properties of CNTs, particularly their mechanical and electrical ...
Design and implementation process for controls integration using CAN bus on a full function electric vehicle conversion
(2014-03-01)
From the electrical engineering perspective, this thesis addresses the design and
implementation of the conversion process from a hybrid electric to a full function electric
vehicle (FFEV). The architecture selection process ...
Experimental investigation and analysis of a new light-based hydrogen production system
(2014-12-01)
Due to the world’s increasing population and the rising standard of living, global energy demand is expected to keep increasing. The limited nature of fossil fuels and their non-homogenous global distribution along with ...
Development of a PSA-based safety assessment and management framework for nuclear-based hydrogen generation system.
(2014-08-01)
The nuclear-based Cooper-Chloride (Cu-Cl) thermochemical cycle a promising method for future large-scale hydrogen generation. The nuclear-based hydrogen generation leads to new challenge for system safety due to the ...
