Data analysis in electric power system embedded with solar PVs
(2016)
Conventional source of energy are overly dependent on fossil fuel which tend to face several challenges such as the depleting of fossil fuel, environmental threat and human health. To deal with such challenges, solar PV ...
A Survey on Security and Attack Aspects of Passwords
(2018-01-19)
Despite many weaknesses, passwords are still mainly used, and will continue to be used in the near future, for the user authentication process. Passwords remain one of the important pillars of the protection structure even ...
Control of resonant excitation in piping systems
(9th International Symposium on Fluid-Structure Interactions, Flow-Sound Interactions, Flow-Induced Vibration & Noise, 2018)
Acoustic resonance is a phenomenon which is known to
have severe repercussions in a variety of industrial systems.
Acoustic resonance can cause high levels of vibrations leading
to damage or premature failure of critical ...
A study on regulation standard for SMRs
(2019-08-01)
The current thinking in the nuclear energy industry is favoring by small-scale Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) with improved safety and multiple applications compared to conventional large-size nuclear power plants. The ...
Reinforcing effect of PVDF/MWCNTs nanofibers on dental resin based composites
(2019-12-01)
In the present study, the restorative composite resin was fabricated by impregnating electro-spun PVDF/MWCNTs nanofiber membrane within the based dental polymer (BisGMA/TEGDMA) using photo-polymerization. The flexural ...
Design and characterization of next-generation tissue equivalent proportional counters for use in low energy neutron fields
(2014-04-01)
Tissue Equivalent Proportional Counters (TEPCs) are devices that can measure the radiation dose levels for the mixed neutron and gamma ray fields that are encountered in nuclear facilities. TEPC designs typically consist ...
A systems approach to assessing the sustainability of hybrid community energy systems.
(2014-09-01)
The goal to achieve a sustainable society that will endure over the long term is
generally regarded as a positive evolutionary course. One of the challenges with this
goal is developing a quantitative assessment of the ...
Experimental design, analysis and improvement of a Marnoch Heat Engine with heat recovery.
(2013-01-01)
This research examines the prototyping of a Marnoch Heat Engine (MHE) and
conducts thermodynamic and heat transfer analyses of this heat engine with a waste heat
recovery system. The heat source for the MHE can be low ...
Learning-based adaptive design for dynamic spectrum access in cognitive radio networks.
(2014-10-01)
This thesis is concerned with dynamic spectrum access in cognitive radio networks.
The main objective is designing online learning and access policies which maximize
the total throughput of the secondary users in a ...
Torque control strategy for off-road vehicle mobility.
(2014-11-01)
Multi-wheeled off-road vehicles behavior depend not only on the total provided power by the engine but also on the power distribution among the drive axles/wheels. In turn, this distribution is primarily regulated by the ...
