Parallel design optimization of multi-trailer articulated heavy vehicles with active safety systems
(2013-04-01)
Multi-trailer articulated heavy vehicles (MTAHVs) exhibit unstable motion modes
at high speeds, including jack-knifing, trailer swing, and roll-over. These unstable
motion modes may lead to fatal accidents. On the other ...
Development of an actuation system for a specialized fixture: providing two degrees of freedom for single point incremental forming
(2013-02-01)
In this thesis, an actuation system is developed for a Two-Axis Gyroscopic (TAG) adapter.
This adapter is a fixture with two auxiliary axes which is used for the Single Point
Incremental Forming (SPIF) technique to enhance ...
Simulation-based fault propagation analysis of process industry using process variable interaction analysis
(2013-01-01)
There are increasing safety concerns in chemical and petrochemical process industry. The huge explosion of Nowruz oil Field platform that happened in Persian gulf-IRAN at 1983, along with other disastrous events have ...
Sum-rate maximization for active channels
(2013-04-01)
In conventional wireless channel models, there is no control on the gains of different
subchannels. In such channels, the transmitted signal undergoes attenuation and
phase shift and is subject to multi-path propagation ...
Development and analysis of a solar-based integrated system with a CO2 Rankine power cycle
(2013-10-01)
The current work is a thermodynamic-based design and analysis of a solar-based
integrated system for power production. In this regards, a reheat supercritical carbon
dioxide (S-CO2) Rankine cycle is proposed. This cycle ...
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 ...
