A framework for integrating wireless sensors and cloud computing
(2015-01-01)
Wireless sensors generate a large volume of data that require a highly scalable framework that enables storage, processing, and analysis. Cloud computing technology can provide unlimited storage in addition to a flexible ...
Development and optimization of a wide base FEA truck tire model for prediction of tire-road interactions
(2015-04-01)
The most important aspect of any land-type vehicle is the efficiency in which it can translate
energy from an engine, motor, or external source to the ground in an effort to move.
Currently, the most efficient way to do ...
Integration of deviation zone evaluation and point measurement planning in coordinate metrology
(2015-03-01)
Reliable inspection of a manufactured part with coordinate Metrology demands excessive time to provide higher accuracy. The uncertainty of inspection highly depends on the number and location of points acquired during the ...
Spectrum sensing based on capon power spectral density estimation
(2015-04-01)
Cognitive radio (CR) technology has evolved to solve the spectrum scarcity problem and improve
spectrum utilization. Spectrum sensing is a CR function that allows secondary users to
efficiently utilize the spectrum without ...
Inspection & modelling of cusp geometry in additive manufacturing to predict product’s surface roughness
(2015-04-01)
The final dimensional and geometric inaccuracies, and the resulting high surface roughness of the products have been the major problems in employing Additive Manufacturing (AM) technologies. Most of commonly used Additive ...
User-centric analytics for expert crowds
(2015-09-01)
Pervasiveness and permissiveness of social media made content verification an integral part of any analysis involving online generated data. The most natural and convenient way to assess content trustworthiness and validity ...
Spectrum sharing for two-way relay networks
(2015-07-01)
We consider a communication network consisting of two transceiver nodes, one relay node, and one receiving node. The relay enables a two-way communication between the two transceivers and meanwhile sends its own information ...
Development of an autonomous omnidirectional hazardous material handling robot
(2015-12-01)
This thesis describes the prototyping and testing of an autonomous omnidirectional robot, called the OmniMaxbot. The OmniMaxbot is designed to carry cans of uranium ash at Cameco Corporation's Port Hope Conversion Facility ...
Design and development of a robotic crawler for CANDU fuel channel inspection
(2015-08-01)
For the design of a new robotic crawler drive unit for CANDU fuel channel inspection, a complete design and screening process was done in order to fulfil the objective of this research. A brief explanation of CANDU reactors ...
Jointly optimal pre- and post-channel equalization and distributed beamforming in asynchronous bi-directional relay networks
(2015-09-01)
We consider an asynchronous two-way relay network, consisting of two transceivers and multiple relays, where due to the propagation delays of different transceiver-relay paths being different, inter-symbol- interference ...
