Coordinated control of active safety systems for multi-trailer articulated heavy vehicles
(2016-06-01)
To improve the directional performance of multitrailer articulated heavy vehicles (MTAHVs), the
model-based active safety systems, including the active trailer steering, trailer differential braking
and the active roll ...
A framework of image processing for image-guided procedures
(2016-07-01)
Contrary to the cases of open surgery, during minimally invasive procedures,
surgeons have no direct access or very limited access to the operative site and
can only visualize the site and the focal region with the aid of ...
User behavior pattern based security provisioning for distributed systems
(2016-01-01)
Behaviors of authorized users must be monitored and controlled due to the rise
of insider threats. Security analysts in large distributed systems are overwhelmed
by the number of system users, the complexity and changing ...
Performance improvement for robotic mechanisms by: synthesis design, dynamic balancing and adaptive control techniques
(2016-05-01)
Robotics have been used in many arenas, such as manufacturing, medical, and space. Currently, the use of robotics is limited with respect to performance capabilities. Improving the performance of robotic mechanisms is a ...
Transactive energy control of electric energy storage to mitigate the impact of transportation electrification in distribution systems
(2016-11-01)
The adoption of Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) as a substitute to gasoline-based
internal combustion engine vehicles represent a major change in the transportation
sector. Typically, PEVs uses electricity to charge the ...
Uncertainty quantification for safety verification applications in nuclear power plants
(2016-11-01)
There is an increasing interest in computational reactor safety analysis to systematically replace the conservative calculations by best estimate calculations augmented by quantitative uncertainty analysis methods. This ...
Design and implementation of a component-based distributed system for text mining in social networks
(2016)
This report presents the design and implementation of a component-based distributed system for text mining in social networks. The system consists of three main types of components, data collection, data processing and ...
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 ...
Design and optimization of dielectric resonator antenna arrays based on substrate integrated waveguide technology for millimeter-wave applications
(2016-05-01)
With the lower frequency bands heavily crowded, the millimeter wave (MMW) frequency band has attracted a lot of attention, offering a wide range of applications. It also introduces new challenges to the research community. ...
