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 ...
Investigation of sustainable hydrogen production from steam biomass gasification
(2010-12-01)
Hydrogen is a by-product of the gasification process and it is environmentally friendly with respect to pollution and emission issues when it is derived from a CO2-neutral resource such as biomass. It is an energy carrier ...
Design synthesis of articulated heavy vehicles with active trailer steering systems
(2010-04-01)
A new design synthesis method for articulated heavy vehicles (AHVs) with an active trailer steering (ATS) system is examined and evaluated. Due to their heavy weights, large sizes, and complex configurations, AHVs have ...
Reliability evaluation of the two bus interface controllers in the Darlington simulator
(2010-01-01)
The Darlington simulator is now two decades old and, in common with any nuclear simulator of a similar age, suffers the problem of parts aging and obsolescence. In the past, replacement parts were available from the original ...
