Modeling and analysis of off-road tire cornering characteristics
(2022-05-01)
Cornering performance characteristics of wheeled vehicles substantially rely on the forces/moments generated from interactions between pneumatic tires and terrains. Accurate models are thus required to predict these ...
A POMDP framework for antenna selection and user scheduling in multi-user massive MIMO systems
(2022-04-01)
We use a partially observable Markov decision process (POMDP) framework to design a resource allocation policy for downlink transmit beamforming at a multi-antenna BS that is equipped with a massive number of antennas and ...
Design and development of a traction motor emulator using a three-phase bidirectional buck-boost AC-DC converter
(2022-04-01)
An industrial drive testing, with a ‘real-machine’ can pave way, for some serious issues to test-bench, motor, and the operator. A slight disturbance in control logic amid testing, can damage the physical machine or drive. ...
Design and development of a machine learning-based framework for phishing website detection
(2022-04-01)
Phishing is a social engineering cyber attack to steal personal information from users. Attackers solicit individuals to click phishing links by sending them emails or social media text messages with deceptive content. ...
A robust and efficient autonomous exploration methodology of unknown environments for multi-robot systems
(2022-05-01)
Multi-robot systems can provide effective solutions for exploring and inspecting environments where it is unpractical or unsafe for humans, however, adequate coordination of the multi-robot system is a challenging initiative. ...
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 ...
Comparative study of various hydrogen production methods for vehicles.
(2014-12-01)
Hydrogen as an energy carrier is a promising candidate to store green energy and it has a
potential to solve various critical energy challenges. Although, hydrogen is a clean
energy carrier, the possible negative impacts ...
A comparison of three computational phantoms for calibration of a radiation portal monitor used for measurement of internal contamination.
(2014-12-01)
The goal of this research was to investigate if portal monitors could measure internally deposited radioisotopes over a short count time (1 second) with a detection limit sufficient to measure 1/10 of an annual limit on ...
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 ...
