Coded aperture imaging application in one-sided imaging of visually obscured objects
(2011-05-17)
The physical properties of visible light and its interaction with matter create
obstructions the human eye cannot explore. High energy radiation has been
used as an alternative to visible light to penetrate these concealed ...
Characterization of natural fibre reinforced biodegradable composities
(2011-08-01)
Low cost, light weight, recyclability, and high specific strength of natural fibres make them a good replacement for synthetic fibre such as glass in fibre reinforced plastics (FRP). Green and ecofriendly source of these ...
Energy-efficient relay cooperation for lifetime maximization
(2011-08-01)
We study energy-efficient power allocation among relays for lifetime maximization
in a dual-hop relay network operated by amplify-and-forward relays with battery
limitations. Power allocation algorithms are proposed for ...
Improved design of three-degree of freedom hip exoskeleton based on biomimetic parallel structure
(2011-07-01)
The external skeletons, Exoskeletons, are not a new research area in this highly
developed world. They are widely used in helping the wearer to enhance human strength,
endurance, and speed while walking with them. Most ...
Forensic analysis of unallocated space
(2011-06-01)
Computer forensics has become an important technology in providing evidence in investigations of computer misuse, attacks against computer systems and more traditional crimes like money laundering and fraud where digital ...
Evaluating and improving collection tree protocol in mobile wireless sensor network
(2011-07-01)
There has been growing interest in the Mobile WSN applications where mobility is
the fundamental characteristic of the sensor nodes. Mobility poses many challenges
to the routing protocols used in such applications. In ...
New numeracies: the social practice of functional skills and social justice
(2011-11-01)
This thesis explores how creating and performing digital numeracy texts, affords students learning opportunities in Mathematics that demonstrate their numerical social practice. In an environment that celebrates performance ...
Enhancing roll stability and directional performance of articulated heavy vehicles based on anti-roll control and design optimization.
(2011-10-01)
This research presents an investigation to actively improve the rollover stability of articulated heavy vehicles (AHVs) during high speed manoeuvres using anti-roll control systems. A 3-dimensional (3-D) linear yaw/roll ...
Energy ans exergy analysis of biomass co-firing in pulverized coal power generation
(2011-04-01)
Biomass co-firing with coal exhibits great potential for large scale utilization of biomass
energy in the near future. In the present work, energy and exergy analyses are carried out
for a co-firing based power generation ...
Experimental investigation of an R134a based organic Rankine cycle
(2011-08-01)
This thesis research aims to develop an improved, efficient, low-capacity heat engine, running
on an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) to generate power. The ORC is driven by low or
moderate temperature heat sources, such as; ...
