Retail electric provider selection for prosumers with local distributed energy resources and plug-in electric vehicles using data mining techniques
(2021-01-01)
In a deregulated retail electricity market, the residential customers typically have the liberty to choose an electricity service plan from a list of retail electric providers (REPs) that best matches their monthly energy ...
Development of a knowledge base using human experience semantic network for instructive texts
(2021-12-01)
An organized knowledge base plays a vital role in retaining knowledge. Instructive text (iText) consists of a set of instructions to accomplish a task or operation. In the case of iText, storing only entities and their ...
Joint optimization of transmit beamforming and base station cache allocation in multi-cell C-RAN
(2021-11-01)
Cloud radio access network (C-RAN) with wireless backhaul has been considered as a possible solution for small cell deployment. Limited capacity of wireless backhaul encourages people to equip the base stations (BSs) with ...
A novel spatiotemporal framework for efficient traffic prediction and visualization
(2021-12-01)
This thesis proposes an efficient traffic prediction framework to estimate congestion at intersections depending on neighboring road links. The framework encompasses three major components, data extraction, Bayesian Linear ...
An integrated wind-powered energy system for residential applications in cold regions
(2021-09-01)
This thesis proposed an integrated direct wind-powered energy system that can provide drinking water, domestic hot water, space heating as well as electricity for residential applications of a remote community in a cold ...
Fast algorithm for joint unicast and multicast beamforming in large-scale systems
(2021-09-01)
We consider a joint unicast and multi-group multicast beamforming problem for massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system with a large number of unicast users. We propose an alternating direction method of multipliers ...
Triton: a domain specific language for cyber-physical systems
(2021-04-01)
The design of cyber-physical systems is non-trivial and often filled with tedious, error-prone tasks that could be represented in a better way. Engineers often work with low-level languages such as C and C++, with real-time ...
Analytical and experimental study of the effect of cutting tool microgeometry on the impact resistance of milling tools
(2021-01-01)
This thesis conducted a two-part investigation into the ability of a milling tool cutting insert to resist the impacts that occur during the milling process, with respect to the cutting edge microgeometry. The first part ...
Comparison of the force and torque transfer for different cam profiles
(2021-09-01)
This study presents static load and torque distribution measurements in groove cams for sinusoidal and cycloidal cam profiles. In this thesis, two different designs and apparatuses were developed and built for the static ...
Effect of cutting tool microgeometry when milling hardened steels, a finite element simulation and surface integrity analysis
(2021-01-01)
This research work presents a 3D finite element model for the milling of hardened steels. The model was developed using ABAQUS/Explicit software and the Lagrangian approach was utilized. Experimental milling tests were ...
