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 ...
Analysis of the thermal hydraulics of a multiphase oxygen production reactor in the Cu-Cl cycle
(2016-06-01)
In the thermochemical water splitting process by Cu-Cl cycle, oxygen gas is produced by an endothermic thermolysis process in a three-phase reactor. In this thesis, the required heat for the thermolysis process is provided ...
