The exponential growth in freightage and the ever-increasing traffic congestion has aided Long Combination Vehicles (LCVs) to emerge as an economical and pragmatic solution for freight transport compared to single unit ...

Non-intrusive load monitoring is the concept of determining the operational loads using single-point sensing. The features contained within the electrical load’s signal are used to identify a unique signature which is ...

Fractional calculus has the history as long as the classical calculus, but up to recent years, less attention has been paid to this method due to its complexity and difficulties in dealing with fractional derivatives and ...

Literature review done for the study identified number of challenges with the conventional way of manufacturing nano patterned surfaces. Also, it indicated immense potential of nano structured surface as a sensing surface ...

Business intelligence and analytics is an area of research that analyzes the existing business data to extract the insights needed for a successful business planning. Textual data derived from tweets, forum posts, and blogs ...

This thesis research studies the thermal challenges of robots and evaluates the potential thermal management options. In this regard, it aims to develop and analyze various thermal management options for robotic systems. ...

One of the most important tasks in machine learning is prediction. Data scientists use various regression methods to find the most appropriate and accurate model applicable for each type of datasets. This study proposes a ...

This thesis presents and evaluates an approach to the robust controller design for active trailer steering (ATS) systems to increase the safety of articulated vehicles. By applying a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm ...

This thesis proposes and compares multiple vehicle dynamics controllers using rear axle steering of an 8x8 combat vehicle. The controllers are assessed on ability to increase maneuverability at low speed, increase stability ...

The acoustic pressure pulsations in industrial piping systems can induce fluctuating loads on inline equipment which may cause fatigue failure and in severe cases, initiate a phenomenon known as acoustic resonance. Passive ...
