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 ...
Design and evaluation of integrated waste to energy multigenerational systems
(2022-04-01)
This thesis study develops three renewable energy-based waste-to-energy multigeneration systems and examine them thermodynamically and economically. The first system uses solar-based energy and animal manure waste, and the ...
Investigation of electrochemical and material properties of TiO2 nanostructures generated by pulsed laser ablation
(2022-04-01)
The most challenging feature of the supercapacitor is low energy density. The supercapacitor's low energy density can be improved by proposing new materials for electrodes, electrolytes, etc. This thesis presents a new ...
Revving up for the future: an inductive power transfer system geared for vehicular applications
(2022-03-01)
Energized by the prospect of decluttering the charging infrastructure by severing the bulky power cords used to charge an Electric Vehicle (EV), an innovative technique to wirelessly charge an EV battery known as Inductive ...
Analysis and assessment of integrated waste-to-energy systems based on plastic wastes for multigeneration
(2022-04-01)
This thesis proposes three wastes to energy multigeneration systems that are based on plastic wastes. The three systems are coupled with renewable energy resources like solar energy, geothermal energy, and wind turbine ...
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. ...
Segregation similarity loss in morphological ranking of image search in histopathology
(2022-04-01)
Histopathology is the study of changes in tissue caused by diseases such as cancer. It plays an important role to diagnose the cancers. Regarding the large variation of many cancers types, and the large size of Whole Slide ...
Autonomous ground cover clearing utilizing a robotic wheel loader
(2022-04-01)
The ongoing need to remove ground covering such as sand, dirt and snow poses dangers to workers, from fatigue and repetitive work injures, to direct harm in hazardous locations. To address these challenges a robotic system ...
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 ...
