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 ...
Power-optimal MIMO two-way relay networks
(2018-04-01)
In this dissertation, we study MIMO two-way relay networks consisting of singleantenna users which wish to exchange information with the help of multiple multiantenna relays. The problem we aim to solve is to minimize the ...
Soft-switched, active-clamped DC/AC and AC/AC converters for IPT-based wireless charging applications
(2020-09-01)
The acquisition of inductive power transfer (IPT) technology in commercial electric vehicles (EVs) alleviates the inherent burdens of high cost, limited driving range, and long charging time. In EV wireless charging systems ...
