Modelling of radioactive particle resuspension after a dirty bomb event
(2023-12-01)
The primary hazard of a Dirty Bomb emanates not from the initial detonation but from the subsequent re-suspension of deposited radioactive particles. Although radiological contamination is substantial on surfaces initially, ...
Energy aware scheduling using reinforcement learning for 802.15.4e Time-Slotted Channel Hopping
(2023-11-01)
Time Slotted Channel Hopping (TSCH) is a medium access control mode defined in IEEE 802.15.4e standard. This protocol is a crucial component of fourth-generation IoT applications, enabling efficient communication through ...
Improving classification system to detect cyclic alternation pattern using sleep EEG
(2023-08-01)
Cyclic alternative patterns (CAP) became an important tool to diagnose sleep disorders. This study aims to have a better understanding of CAP, as the clinical applications remain limited as CAP analysis is a time-consuming ...
Characterization of flow control using programmable multi-directional plasma actuators
(2023-09-01)
This research explores the use of a novel plasma actuator geometry and electrical configuration to generate directionally programmable flow fields near the surface of arrays of such plasma actuators. Plasma actuators are ...
Robust multi-group multicast beamforming design and antenna selection for massive MIMO systems
(2023-04-01)
In this dissertation, we use an Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) algorithm to design robust multi-group multicast beamforming scheme for massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems for two ...
Design of surface micro-machined inertial MEMS sensor with meta-heuristic topology optimization
(2023-03-01)
Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) are getting popular for a variety of applications due to their small size, low cost, and good performance. MEMS devices are designed by combining simple shapes based on the experience ...

Efficient design of reconfigurable intelligent surface assisted multi-group multicast beamforming
(2023-09-01)
This thesis considers a multi-group multicasting scenario facilitated by a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS). We propose low-complexity scalable algorithms for the joint design of the base station (BS) multicast ...
Experimental investigation of dark fermentation of poplar leaves for biohydrogen production
(2023-08-01)
Biohydrogen, a sustainable and environmentally friendly energy alternative, is pivotal in transitioning to a more energy-efficient future. Thesis research explores the variations of H2 hydrogen production potential of ...
Coordinated multicast beamforming for multi-cell massive MIMO systems
(2023-09-01)
In this thesis, we consider the efficient coordinated multi-cell multicast beamforming design in massive massive multiple-input multiple output (MIMO) cellular networks. For the problem that aims to minimize the base station ...
