Integration of component-based frameworks with sensor modeling languages for the sensor web
(2010-08-01)
The goal of this thesis is to develop an easily modifiable sensor system. To achieve this goal SensorML (an XML based sensor language) is combined with Java Beans (a component model language). An important part of SensorML ...
Motion planning for multi-link robots with artificial potential fields and modified simulated annealing
(2010-12-01)
In this thesis we present a hybrid control methodology using Artificial Potential Fields (APF) integrated with a modified Simulated Annealing (SA) optimization algorithm for motion planning of a multi-link robots team. The ...
A Hybrid LCC-VSC HVDC Transmission System Supplying a Passive Load
(2010-12-01)
High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) transmission systems continue to be an excellent
asset in modern power systems, mainly for their ability to overcome the problems of AC
transmission, such as the interconnection of ...
Optimal power minimization in two-way relay network with imperfect channel state information
(2010-08-01)
We study a two-way amplify and forward relay network with two transceivers which
communicate through a network of nr relays while there is no direct link between the two
transceivers. Each relay is equipped with a single ...
Design and Optimization of Intelligent PI Controllers (Fuzzy and Neuro-Fuzzy) for HVDC Transmission System
(2010-08-01)
This thesis deals with enhancing the performance of Fuzzy Logic (FL) based PI controllers for High Voltage Direct Current Transmission Systems (HVDC) by optimizing the key parameters i.e. membership functions (MFs) and ...
Simulation of voltage source converter based shunt active filter in EMTP‐RV
(2010-08-01)
The deterioration in power quality due to the increase in non linear loads has sparked a new interest
in the filtering techniques used in transmission and distribution systems. Unlike passive filters, active
filters are ...
Modeling of voltage source converter based HVDC transmission system in EMTP-RV
(2010-08-01)
Voltage Source Converter (VSC) applications include but are not limited to HVDC, Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) devices such as STATCOM, SSSC, UPFC and Wind generators and active filters. The VSC based HVDC system ...
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
Model predictive control of wheeled mobile robots
(2010-12-01)
The control of nonholonomic wheeled mobile robots (WMRs) has gained a lot of attention
in the field of robotics over the past few decades as WMRs provide an increased range of
motion resulting in a larger workspace. This ...
Profile extrusion of wood plastic cellular composites and formulation evaluation using compression molding
(2010-05-01)
Wood Plastic Composites (WPCs) have experienced a healthy growth during the last decade. However, improvement in properties is necessary to increase their utility for structural applications. The toughness of WPCs can be ...
